PieFacE Posted January 13, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Whats better playstation or xbox Depends what you want and how you'd use it really... Fundamentally as a gaming console, PS4 no question. But for a integral part of a home theater setup which plays games a bit worse - Xbox. Dunno, I'd follow your friends and the games you want to play in all honesty. Edited January 13, 2015 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 13, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2015 Dunno, I'd follow your friends and the games you want to play in all honesty. This for me. The few of my mates who play games have PS4s so it makes sense for me. I did want a PS4 over and xbox, but if they'd all had XBones instead then I'd have gone for that. And, of course, VTVN operate on PS4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Found out Playstation Now has Earth Defence Force on it, this changes everything. There's a few other games on it I was aware of having good reps, but never played, like El Shaddai, Enslaved, and the Sly Cooper HD stuff. Plus 2 PS3 EDF games that I didn't play, only played them on PS2 before. Mindless fun. Not quite enough to get me to sub, I have plenty enough to play as it is, but it might be worth a month's sub during a gaming draught. Especially if they put some weird and wonderful PS1 & PS2 games on there, although that is some way off yet. Whats better playstation or xbox Playstation, because, Xbox sucks Edited January 13, 2015 by hogso 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 it's swings and roundabouts. PS4 had a great start and is technically a better system, but Sony has mismanaged things a little of late. XBO is slightly more limited on the technical front, but they've gone to great lengths to improve things with new dev tools, and it's very possible that we might actually see it outperforming the PS4 within 12 months if the improvements continue and Sony remains firmly seated on its hands. Essentially, they're the same thing with different UIs (I despite the XBO's one, for example, but love Sonys) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3te Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 very impressed with playstation now i have to say. wasn't expecting much, but it works very well. the selection needs work, and the pricing is a bit much at $45 for 3 months, but it's a lot better than I thought it'd be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Go on... Whats the library like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 the list is here, blue games are available to subscribers, non blue ones have to be rented separately It's a nice mixed bag to be honest, plenty in there that I'm sure a lot of people thought about but never bothered with - which is exactly where a service like this excels. I don't care about the AAA games, and I'm sure many are the same, I want to play the things I never bothered buying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I understand that the PSN server is likely to be getting its ass taxed 24/7 but 30 hours to download a game is a **** piss take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted January 17, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2015 I get about 7mb/sec on the PS4, the Wii U is where I seem to struggle. Takes me 10 mins to download 1.5gb on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
