Is there any point in getting an xbone or should i just upgrade my pc and get windows 10?
>>
Full idort here, xbone is comfy and functions nicely as a home entertainment center (netflix streaming, video rental, blu-rays, etc)

PC is better but to see a significant difference in performance you're going to be looking at like a $1200+ build don't believe the musturd rice posters who say you can build a functional budget computer for $400

It basically comes down to how often you play games and how much money you have. PC is definitely worth the investment if you can afford it but if you just want to play less than 10 hours a week on your couch I'd go with a console.

Should i buy a ps4 now or wait for ps4 neo?
>>
>>342587442
at this point wait
>>
>>342587419
a pc with a rx 480 and a used i5 + overclocking mobo would currently run you anywhere from 600-800 and would demolish the xbone even at 1440p

i agree with your media center sentiment, however. i bought one because i have more money than foresight and i don't think i've actually touched it for anything vidya in over a year.

Good idea. Any idea for release date?
>>
>>342587296
I dont know do you want to run games fluid or 30 fps with dips for the perfect cinematic experience ?
>>
W10 store is really shitty.

I don't see a point in getting an xbone now since you might as well wait for Scorpio, BUT if you have an xbone already, you're honestly better off keeping it for the time being.
>>
>>342587965
I'm keeping my bone around until they fully roll out the W10 stuff
>>
>tfw we're eventually going to have to upgrade to windows 10
>>
Do you want to play your games stutter free at a stable framerate? Get an xbone.
>>
Wait for project scorpio or PS4 neo or NX. No reason to get into consoles now if you haven't already bought either of those.

w10 is cool I like it

>>342588079
Yeah man I have a ps4 and xbone but I usually go xbone for multiplats (that aren't on PC) because I like the controller more, the download speeds aren't like 800kbs and they tend to run more stable.

ps4 I just keep around for the odd exclusive like ni-oh and horizon zero dawn I guess

As an IDORT, I would upgrade the PC. Much more value for the money, and consoles are pretty much dying out these days.
>>
>>342588265
there's still a lot of console exclusive titles coming out but none of the really interesting ones will be out until the end of this year or next year
>>
>>342587442
Ps4 now, NEO in a few years once the price drops
>>
Upgrade and get 10 but keep another machine like a laptop or something so you can disagree with the feminists and not get arrested probably put some flavor of Linux on it.
>>
PC has
-bigger game library by far
-better graphics
-better framerate
-cheaper games
-100's of free games
-better controls + more control options
-mods
-more user content (maps, skins, etc)
-free online MP

this is a stupid question and you are stupid for asking this. You deserve an XB1 as punishment, so get one

>that's a pic of me like 3 years ago

Either way Microsoft wins.

You'd actually be hurting sony more if you upgrade to PC instead of going console.

Sony doesn't have a pc marketplace so of consoles die, so does play station.
>>
>PS dies
>naughty dog moves to PC

I wish

Anyway it'll never happen because consoles are a much cheaper and convenient option than PC gaming.

Might as well be upset that grandma drives an automatic ford focus to go get her groceries instead of a tuned up dodge challenger
>>
>>342588806
Consoles aren't really convenient. But they are cheaper yes. Convenient would be if you got a good experience from it.
>>
>wait for scorpio
>Get the definitive w10 prebuilt machine
>Use pc for everything else and without w10
Problem solved
>>
>>342591810
why don't you just dual boot instead?
>>
I have an xbone and ps4 and i get way more use out of the xbone. I honestly dont even know why i bought the ps4. Some faggots at work were saying how hype it was going to be and i bought into the memes that the ps4 was leagues stronger than the xbone but it didnt end up that way.

The moral of the story is. Go with where your friends are at. My close friends got an xbone and these fags from work peer pressured my weak ass into getting a ps4. Better exclusives, controller, and online. Just like the 360 last gen. Sonys last good console was the ps2

Unless you like Halo or want to try the halo games out, no, there's basically no reason to.

Every other exclusive is coming to w10 and console only multiplats run better on Ps4

If you do like halo though, it's tempting since you have pretty much every halo game worth giving a shit about (CE/A, 2/A, 3, ODST, 4, Wars in 8 months, 5, Wars 2 in 8 months) running natively on it in one way or another at 1080p/60fps and Reach works via backwards compability

>Every other exclusive is coming to w10 and console only multiplats run better on Ps4

This is actually false. The ps4 isnt that much stronger and developers try to make it process a lot more functions. Resulting in more frame drops and similar things. Xbone games are stuck at 720/900p and dont overcompensate for hardware it doesnt have. Plus xbox consoles always for some reason have better color and black usage
