I have to agree with the statement on if u owned the previous Gen then get the upgrade of that... Im assuming you play online? If so you lose all your online mates, not that you wont make more, and its pretty easy to grow your friends list, especially with this place...

Bearing that in mind i have the PS4 and I must say its a great system... But i have had the PS 1-2-3-4... I cant stand the X-1 control... But i do GREATLY prefer the X Box UI to the PS "ribbon"

The PS4 is in my opinion, there when it comes to the media player, Iv had no issues with it... But i prefer to have a PC connected directly to the TV so this doesnt really matter for me.

Also the main thing you should take from this thread is how many guys have stressed that your choice should be based on Exclusives... For me I couldnt NOT play The Last of Us... Final Fantasy for years was a Play station exclusive, right up until XIII if im not mistaken... (and PC obvs...) But games like BloodBorne, (havent started yet) Uncharted, KillZone, Infamous, etc etc... These games made the decision for me... And i was seriously considering the X-1 because I have friends who play on X-1...

You wont regret either purchase though... They are both fantastic machines...
