For this generation's PS4, everything is 100% digital download if you want it to be. I've gone 100% digital for this generation, no more discs for me

I usually wait till the second generation to go come before buying to avoid any bugs or major hardware issues. From what I've seen on the reviews the PS4 tops the Xbox interms of gaming, hardware specs and performancing. People were saying the Xbox was a better overall entertainment system, interface, netflix, etc. Is the ps4 available to buy in stores now?

got a PS4 - and the introduction of these new systems was pretty un-eccessary. If you consider the potential of how satisfied people were with XBox 360 and PS3 and how may games were available - it would have been better to keep marketing it for a couple more years.

the step up in graphics from PS3 doesn't feel as pronouced as say ps2 vs ps3

the PS4 is lightning fast compared to the PS3

Controller doesn't last nearly as long

Have been playing battlefield 4 and the game and or console is very glitchy - dozens of kick out of games, loosing all player data - but suspect that is a battlefield 4 problem

I would almost consider the Xbox one msyelf - and I've never used or owned one before.

If your kids currently have the 360 they would probally prefer the xbox1
Their accounts will all be transferable and any new games you bought for the 360 can be upgraded to the 1 for 10$ I believe

Xbox one has a larger purpose than just gaming. It has an hdmi input so your tv box will go in, and the xbox will allow for interactive tv watching. And it'll all work through the xbox remote.

Plus it streams media from your computer right onto your tv

I feel that Xbox has more potential for expansion and new purposes

I just picked up an Xbox one yesterday can't hook it up till Christmas Eve tho lol but I am a big xbox fan my ps3 collects dust unless I wish to watch a movie. Personally I like the games on Xbox better I know most are on both platforms but exclusives like gears of war and forza make the deal for me. Heck I'm such an xbox cronic I have 3 360's. Yes I have a problem console hoarding

post-warranty RROD?

or did you treat yourself to one of the newer ones so you could actually hear your games over the sounds of the fans?

my oldie sounds like an aircraft taking off. good thing i play with headphones on although that was already a requirement so the kids don't wake up to the sounds of GTA V lol.

First one got the rrod sent it way got it replaced and sent back then it got it again. And the wife made me but a second so that she didn't have to hear me whine about it. So then we had two one for her one for me so that we could use gta 4 as marriage counselling. She liked trying to kill me. Then last year I had enough points on our credit card to get a gift certificate and I got a 3rd so we had one for each tv instead of buying dvdplayers for each. And this way my niece could also play along with us if she chose. We had the family plan for live which I miss terribly. But the day care kids use my original and I use the large hd new system for most my gaming. Love gta v but not fond of the online system at the moment well some of it. You should add me my gamer tag is also lockrookie

Ps my fans are not loud at all the older ones seem to run better than my newer one tho

I have also been thinking of buying one or the other and I am thinking of going with the xbox because of all the other stuff it offers beside just a game.
