Hi, I've wanted to buy an Xbox One but also an PS4 for different reasons. I need help choosing one and please correct me if i'm incorrect about my statements:
XBOX ONE:
- One of my closest friends which I may never be able to see again in real life because he moved schools is on this console
- Ability to change gamer tag
- Already having 18600 + gamerscore and games on a account from the 360 and with 1 year tenure
- Halo, Sunset Overdrive, Backwards Compatibiity
- A community i'm more used to and comfortable with
PS4:
-More and more of my normal friends and people are getting this console and I want to be able to always play with them and brag to more people about my call of duty stats hehe
-Cant change gamertag but i think playstation plus is more cheaper ?
-Better controller and entertainment features
-Call of duty/esports new support console for dlc, events etc.
If you have any opinions, I'm more than happy to hear them ! Thanks
My firsts and normals thoughts are go where your friends are going. So that's a thing you will have to choose, as you have important people on both.
In terms of console features that you have listed. Controller is personal preference, PS+ is very slightly cheaper however the Games for Gold on XB is really good (I've had Black Flag and The Walking Dead Seasons free the last couple game months). As for game exclusives, I personally feel XB has that department down, as for COD, to my knowledge they have that contract signed for 1 year. And seeing as XB has sold more copies of BO3 I would think that's likely to change once again. And as for a bit of info, XB is getting a new dash in a couple weeks (Windows 10 I guess) that's crazy fast.
Entertainment features wise I can't comment on PS4 as I don't own one which is why my core info is about XB. There is game streaming to PC and phone, setting up TV guides and such or whatever via the extra HDMI in port. Game capture, the built in Windows 10 app and remote control of the console.
Regardless of this information, I would suggest to you that you simply go with the people you want to play with.
