Xbox One vs PS4

There was a Playstation 1? God you're old!

Must have been a clockwork machine I guess.

Looks like the daughter is already interested in the PS4. She's got plenty of cash for one, I'll have to wait and see if she springs for it sooner rather than later...

My wife has said I can get one for my birthday, obviously depending on when it is released. I was going to wait but its not everyday you get the green light on such things. Plus I might get a month or twos use before its just an unused black box under the TV.

I had to laugh reading some of the gamer reviews where the complaints were that the two consoles are ugly. Who gives a damn what it looks like? Mine will be virtually out of sight and used for what it does rather than bring used as an attractive ornament.

I've had 2 PS's, 3 PS2's (2 large and 1 small) and a PS3. I've always waited for about a year or 2 after release for the price to come down and the inventory of games to fill out a little bit. I will be getting a PS4, eventually.

My kids have had both the xbox and 360. I have tried playing with them a couple of times and I hate the controllers. The graphics were marginally better on the 360 than the PS3, yes. But it doesn't cost me a thing to fire up GT5 and go online with it.

GT6 has now been announced by Sony, and it will apparently be released on the PS3 and not the PS4
I guess they have something else planned for the PS4 a year or 2 after release, which will suit my MO just fine.

I had mine in the mid 90's too. F1 1998 was one of the best racing games I've played, absolutely loved it.

It seems like a lot of games are being newly released on Ps3 more than Ps4.

I assume as soon as Ps4 or xbox 1 is released the new games will be made for both?

My favorite was the version after that, F1 2000 is what I think it was called, by EA Sports. Not really realistic, though. One could keep it on the mat a from Nordkurve all the way to the beginning of the stadium section at the old Hockenheim if one got the line just right through the bunkers next to the chicanes at Clark and Ostkurve-the sand would slow you down just enough.

It was that F1 game that really got me to watch F1 every time it came on. I still have my PS1 buried in a box somewhere in the attic.

Horses for courses but neither are for me, the last console I bought was a PS2 which ended up sitting just gathering dust.

I already have a half decent gaming PC (I5 2500K at 4.3Ghz + 560TI) which I built last year, it probably already performs similar to the next gen consoles graphically so I couldn't justify forking out £300-£400 even if I was tempted... I think I'd rather put the cash towards a Nvidea GTX Titan. mokin:
