XBOX 720 VS PS4, what will you get?

If you don't want people to bash this then you should have posted it under the PC section. I have been a gamer for well over 20 years and I started out as a PC gamer. I was a PC gamer allot longer than I was a console gamer.

I will admit that the PC delivers a better game in terms of graphics & sound. But quality of the game itself is down to personal taste. Some games, I feel, are better suited for consoles while some are for PC's.

But PC gaming is only better than console gaming as long as you have the hardware to support it, and that is constantly shifting and changing. Not everyone is tech savy enough to do the upgrades themselves. Every few months you have to pump more cash into your PC to keep it Elite enough to get the best out of the latest games.

This is the reason I left the PC. Perhaps you are lucky and live in big city with plenty of competing PC hardwareshops selling at very competitive prices, but I like, many others, do not have that luxury, nor do I have the patience to order online. Either they send you the wrong item, arrives broken, or takes weeks to get here.

This is far to much time & effort just to play games. Maybe consoles are inferrior but at least they maintain a realistic standard that the average Joe can adhear to. Sure, the Xbox did suffer from the RRoD.

But hey, I've spent only a fraction on my consoles than I did on my old PC. The purpose of consoles is to be a simpler alternative to the PC. Which it is.

The average person is a large majority of the consumer market. Do remember that when Sony & Microsoft make a new console they have to design it to last for at least 6 - 10 years, otherwise it is not worth selling it in the first place. That means they've got to put into the console state of the art tech.

When the 360 & PS3 were first released they were well ahead of any normal PC (the tech was available, but very expensive at the time.) The "720" is in production, this Microsoft has mentioned, but as they are still in the designing phase not much else is known. It is believed that the next Console will be formerly announced at next year's E3. I don't know about Sony, but I assume they will follow shortly afterword.

I´m sure they are both trying not to repeat the mistakes they made with their previous systems (XB's RRod disaster) & (PS3's idiotically expensive release system that took too long to come out anyway.) Though the PS3 seems to be going strong for the moment so I'm guessing they are in no rush to release a new systtem. But the XB is starting to show it's age and even the most loyal XB knows it. It's only a matter of time until the PS3 totally dominates the Console market.

(I view the Wii is a party favor and I won't recognise it as a serious console!) Point of the matter: I get what you are saying, we are all waiting for the next Gen consoles. Yes PC gaming is very good but it is also a matter of taste & finance. As much as I would like to go back to being a PC gamer, I'm just not bothered with all the muss & fuss with the tech side, plus the fact that I live somewhere a bit remote doesn't help.

I like the XBox and it is easier for me use. It lack some good titles but still has many that I adore, and many that are still to come out. I enjoy games for their experience not the graphics & sound.

I don't know a lot of games get released on both consoles and pcs so in that aspect a pc is better for graphics and performance, but I still like to play certain games on the playstation that pc does not have. I also find the multiplayer to be a lot better on consoles more people are playing online. I am glad to play them both, The Witcher Enhanced Edition is amazing with a pc that has hdmi.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
