<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**__Xbox One__** <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**Pros** <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">1. Truly next gen system philosophy with slick, fast UI, voice and gesture commands and seamless integration of all sofa-based entertainment, Skype, fast switching, multi-tasking, snap mode has a thousand possibilities <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">2. Games launched instantly without disc switching due to installs <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">3. Add as much extra storage as desired through external HDD <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">4. Kinect 2.0 included – finally frees up developers to explore the tech and its possibilities for integration into core gaming, unnoticeable latency, provides high quality Skype camera, and will be great for UI and media control via voice command and gesture <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">5. Smart Glass can finally show its potential now it will be linked directly via Wi-Fi to the console (rather than the old SG to web, web to Xbox method that lagged a lot) <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">6. Controller looks amazing with “surround rumble” and every area subtly improved, and overhauled D-pad <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">7. GAMES – the launch window games for Xbox One contains loads of exclusive titles I’m actually interested in – Ryse, Forza, Dead Rising 3, Killer Instinct, Project Spark, Titanfall, Quantum Break, D4 <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">8. General good track record with online services and reliable media and UI performance <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">9. Sharing family is an amazing feature. Really surprised me how generous the terms are. <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">10. Huge cloud advantage to 300,000 servers (I read somewhere Sony has access to 30,000?) <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**Cons** <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">1. Refusal to allow self-publishing on Xbox One is a huge mistake in my mind, and will rob the platform of some of the most interesting games next gen. It’s a possible deal breaker for me. <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">2. 24 hour check in is an obvious and necessary way of protecting against piracy within a system where games are fully installed, instantly launched and sharable with friends digitally – BUT – lack of any fail-safes for times the internet goes is a major concern. Another possible deal breaker in my mind. <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">3. Slight lack of power over PS4 could become an issue later in the generation, and could lead to superior PS4 versions of cross platform games <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">4. Huge size of the console, obviously due to overheating paranoia, makes it less of an attractive proposition in my entertainment centre <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">5. Higher price over PS4 <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">6. Used game restrictions only bother me in that it seems to favour big businesses like GAME and Gamestop. Will my local games shop be allowed to sell on Xbox One games? I don’t patronise the used game industry personally as I think it is choking the real games making industry, but I don’t like these big-corporate favouring policies. <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">7. Fear over what could happen at the end of the generation. While it is more logical to think that they’d just run an update that removed the online check, there is the spectre of risk that all your paid-for games could become unplayable.

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**__PS4__**

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**Pros**

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">1. No worries or hassles about online requirements, used games, long term ownership

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">2. £80 cheaper than Xbox One

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">3. Slight power advantage could allow some unique experiences later in the generation, and could lead to superior PS4 versions of cross platform games

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">4. Lots of quality first party studios such as Naughty Dog promise some special next gen experiences

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">5. Much improved control pad over the DS, looks actually usable

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">6. Touch pad should help with UI/media/web aps control

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">7. Much smaller box, more discreet in entertainment centre

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">**Cons**

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">1. Lack of next-gen vision, still relying on disc swapping (or going digital download wholesale, which I will if I go PS4 as I hate disc swapping), UI smoothness and usability still and unknown quantity, media functionality undetailed and general historical poor form on these fronts (even as recently as the Vita) do not bode well for a slick, usable ecosystem

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">2. General lack of reliability when it comes to online services and updates – this morning it was announced that the latest PS3 firmware was bricking some PS3s. Seven years into this console and five months away from the next this sets off serious alarm bells for me as to Sony’s competence in this area.

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">3. Much less servers to rely on for cloud functionality

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">4. Throwing their one innovation under the bus to score cheap points. They drop the Eye so they can be £80 rather than £20 cheaper than Xbxo and instantly make it an irrelevance. Developers won’t support it if they don’t know every console has it.

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">5. Small box with little ventilation makes me think this will either be a) a noisy system with powerful fans or b) prone to overheating

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">6. Lack of launch window exclusive games that really appeal. Only SecondSon and The Order: 1886 really appeal to me and it's a bit depressing that the two launch titles I would likely buy – Watchdogs and FIFA 14 – would both be on Xbox One as well.

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);">7. Lack of support for external harddrives. No matter how much Sony fan boys may insist on it – the ability to replace the harddrive is not a better feature. In an ideal world I’d want both features, but just being able to replace the harddrive means you are paying for something you will eventually dispose of. If I want 2tb+ on day one, for Xbox One I add an external and then have 2.5tb, nothing wasted. On PS4 I replace the internal harddrive with a 2tb model and then I have basically paid for a 500gb harddrive I have no further use for. If I do it further down the road I have to go through the laborious process of transferring data over, whereas with Xbox One I simply add more, keeping everything where it is on the internal one. Sorry Sony fanboys, this is a worse situation to be.

Xbox one Vs Playstation 4 By: Kade Gregory Is the Xbox one or the Playstation 4 better ? This is one thing a lot of people have questions about, and want to learn more about each system to see which one fits them better. Now before we get started there are plenty ups and downs on each system but im sure there will be one that sticks out to you! There is one obvious key factor about these systems and that is the fact that the Xbox one cost one hundred dollars more than the PS4, but don’t let that put you down for the xbox one because they both have there beninfits. Lets talk about the down on each system first. The Xbox One is one hundred dollars more which for some people that does not matter. The colsole it self is also a lot larger than the PS4 which in my opinion can look bad. Another thing refusal to allow self-publishing on Xbox One is a huge mistake in my mind, and will rob the platform of some of the most interesting games next gen. For some this could be the possible deal breaker. You have to install the game before you can play it, yes you’ve had to do this before but even with good connection it takes a good 40 minutes to play after injecting the disc. Now yes that can seemlike a lot of bad things but there is also plenty of grat things about the Xbox one. Now for the cons on the play station 4. One thing is throwing their one innovation under the bus to score cheap points. They drop the Eye so they can be $100 rather than $30 cheaper than the Xbox One and instantly make it an irrelevance. Developers won’t support it if they don’t know every console has it. It also has a lack of launch games that seem intresting. The Playstation 4 now makes you pay online fees unlike with the play station 3. You cannot play older play station games on this system. And one big thing to me is that it does not have voice activation. Now lets put all the bad things away and show you why these systems are both amazing in their own way! First we will start the the Xbox One. One big thing is the voice control, with such simple commands as “Xbox turn off” youre xbox will listen and the same with turning it on. It already come with its kinect system most people don’t use the connect but now it has a neat feature. The feature with the kinect allows you to sit in front of it and it will recognize youre face to sign you in. unless you are planning on play a game you don’t need the controller. It also is directly connected to youre tv so you can say “ Xbox watch tv” or “Xbox play game” and it does. Yes I said the xbox was bigger but it does have a very pretty look to it. The Xbox one also has multi tasking so you can go back and forth from one thning to another with out closingf anything else. Thw Xbox One also has a faster processer in it than the PS4 which makes it run a lot somoother. The Xbox One also has a good selection of Launch games released for it. The controller has “sorround rumble” which means each individual button has its own vibrating spring in it to “feel” the game more. Now lets move to the Play Station 4. It uses a lot less power than the Xbox One. The PS4 is not noisy at all which is something important to some people. One feature I think is very intresting is the controller has a touch pad that works with the home screen and PS4 exclusive games. The PS4 is the slightest bit clearer than the xbox one but not noticable. one big thing is ofcouse the price is $100 dollars cheaper than the xbox one. The console is a lot smaller than the xbox o0ne and has a very clean look tjat will fiot on to any entertainment center. Now ive told you the pros and cons of each system its up for you to decide which one you want. Personally I own both and willl have to say I like the Xbox One a lot better due to the reasons explained. But many people have their own opinuions on things so im going to leave it up to you to decide on what you think is better for you!
