[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 6154905, member: 7808"] If I had to buy one now and planned on buying one later, I would get the PS4 first and Xbone later. The PS4 only has one more game than the Xbone slated as launch titles, but the PS4 has more (announced) games in the pipe, both for Q4 2013 and for 2014. The PS4 also has more exclusive titles for 2013. I find it particularly interesting that there's no Halo title expected for the Xbone until 2014. This implies that the PS4 is going to do a better job of hitting the ground running with games than the Xbone, which is the opposite of what we saw with the PS3/360 release. Also, while the slew of bad publicity for the Xbone may not include any issues that affect you personally, I think it's already in the heads of a lot of the early-adopter market. That means you'll get more user-generated support for the PS4 early on. And while I would expect both systems to drop in price by the end of 2014, I expect the Xbone will drop in price first. I'm sure the Xbone will catch up fairly quickly, and the systems will remain fairly homogenous (as they are now) once the dust settles. But the PS4 is generally rounding up to look like a better launch. Edit: Oh, and for reference, I have a PS3, 360, and Wii right now. I have no significant preference of one vs the other, but I have spent remarkably less time with any of them now that I have a toddler. I've personally opted for an Ouya as a media center instead of a next gen console for this year. [/QUOTE]
