if you are poor like me, xbox one

if you are rich, then you wouldn't be asking this and you are a shitposter
>>
>>343194267

PS4 for exclusives and general releases, every XB1 game is coming to PC anyways.
>>
>>343194373
why would you buy a new console if you're poor
>>
>>343194267
PS4 is the smarter choice out of the two of them. That said I'd hold of on that until the Neo, both for the price drop of the standard PS4 if that's the route you want to go, or for the Neo itself.

The Xbox isn't a horrible console, it's just lacking any real purpose right now.
>>
>>343194471
Maybe he got 300 dollars as a bonus? I don't know.
>>
>>343194267
I would say wait for PS4 NEO.
Xbone is kinda useless since pretty much every game on it is on PC
>>
>>343194646
>I would say wait for PS4 NEO.

PS4 is a scam
for the same price you get Scorpio which is more powerful

Neo is like a Year and a half away, even then it'll be another year ontop of that for a NEO exclusive like Uncharted 5 or what ever.

and NEO could be $600, at that price just buy a PC

PS4's been out for 2 years and has a backlog and it'll last another 3 years maybe 4.
>>
>>343195347
Whatever. Buy the PS4 Neo then and be happy
>>
>>343195418
Do you think the Neo is a new gen console? It's going to be out within 12 months, most likely less.
>>
>>343194951

If you buy games on discs yes, if via the ripoff psn store then no.

Even if it fills up, you can buy a 1/2tb hdd and swap it.
>>
If you don't have a PC, then PC.
If you have a PC, but want to play a few great exclusives, then Wii U.
If you have both PC and Wii U, and want to play Bloodborne and Disgaea 5, then PS4.
If you can't afford a PC, save up until you can. The initial investment is daunting, but it's cheaper in the long run, graphics/framerate are better, free online, emulators for pretty much every older console except a select few, free games if you decide to pirate, more control options (KB+M, any controller, arcade stick, racing wheel, flight stick, etc), LAN, entire genres that are exclusive like RTS, etc. The benefits are worth the initial investment. The entire "hurr you gotta upgrade your graphics card every two years" meme is just that, a meme.

I doubt that, it'll be a xmas season launch next year the earliest IF it doesnt get delayed.

Even if it was coming out earlier then it has no chance of dev support

Yup

This is legit advice. If you hate nintendo for whatever reason just look over that sentence.

YOU WILL GET A PC OR YOU CAN'T POST IN OUR 4CHAN SECRET CLUB.
>>
>>343195812
Yeah Discs install but you can delete a game from a HDD and just reinstall it later if you want to play it again.

If you buy from the store you'll have to download a 35-50 gb game which is obv going to take longer
>>
>>343195812
Yes, full install. So you might want to buy a 2tb HD.

This is wrong.

Xbox One and Steam are practically merging, and I imagine they'll be one in the same within this generation of console.

So, if you use Windows, get an Xbox.
If you don't use Windows, get whichever has exclusives you like the most.
>>
Wait for Nintendo to reveal the NX before making a decision. It's going to be released fairly soon, so if you like what you see it's worth the wait. Don't be impatient.

Wii U 2

not the same mistake again
>>
>>343196489
Which games don't install?
>>
>>343195005
What kind of games are you playing? That 500gb goes hella fast, and it doesn't matter if you buy them over the store or the physical disk, because the console will install the whole thing regardless.
>>
>>343195340
Halo 5 with updates is like 80 gigs, the fuck.
>>
>>343196946
Edit: I'd recommend buying a 1tb hard drive and putting it in the console before you ever turn it on.
>>
>>343197034
Since 2tb is max might as well go with that.

Nintendo has said that the NX will not be associated with the Wii brand. Also, they said they are making sure it has a good launch lineup.
>>
>>343197168
Yes, price permitting however.
>>
>>343197034
So do you just buy a 2tb harddrive from any brand and it will go INSIDE the ps4 somehow?
>>
>>343197195
nah nah nah

Not again falling for Nintendo memes

IF they release 2 metroid games, 1 more zelda, 2 next mario galaxies and two more great JRPG in the next 3 years, I MIGHT consider

however I think they won't do that.
>>
i got a ps4 for $150 and it has been worth it alone for Bloodborne, Odin Sphere, and Uncharted. I'm excited for Persona and Last Guardian so no regrets here. Bloodborne on it's own is worth imo.

Wish I'd done this. If I ever want to replace my harddrive now I'll lose PT forever or at least until the PS4 is jailbroken
>>
>>343197294
Yes, there are many different brands for the same product essentially. Just make sure that the hard drive you buy is the same size as the stock one within the ps4. It's as simple as sliding the old one out and sliding the new one in. The reason why I recommend doing it before you turn on the console for the first time, is so that you won't have to redownload the firmware again.

They DELAYED the NX from November to March specificially to get a good launch lineup. Also it has been confirmed that the new Zelda game is going to the NX.

Which controller is best for PC? Xbox 1? Xbox 360? Xbox Elite? Steam controller?

Xbox 360 for occasional pad use, Elite for always using pad and Steam controller for never

Of course.

I can tell you the entire NX catalogue of games right now,

Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros, 3D mario, Mario Party, a zelda game and smash.
>>
Xbox One.

Better games, has alot more (and better) apps than gaystation4, and you get 4 decent to really good games per month. Plus everyone in this thread is going on about emulators on PC. What they don't know is when UWP comes out, you can emulate games on Xbox too. There's even a video of a GBA app working on Xbox somewhere on Youtube.

I have an Xbox one with like 20 games, about half were free with Gold. I'm happy so far, though all my friends moved to pc so I am considering building a pc. It's nice because I can still buy games on my bone and when i build my pc all my games will transfer.

My only complaint though is that my Xbone becomes useless

>>343197892
steam controller is absolutely shit. i just bought one for the sale and i seriously regret it. it feels like shit and it works like shit. i assigned the keybaoards arrow keys to the joystick and when you hold the joystick in a position it clicks the key ONCE. FUCKING ONCE. even if you hold it. Okay, I turn on the TURBO MODE option, which shouldnt even fucking be an option, if i'm holding the god damn joystick in a direction the input should be fucking held down. So, now I have turbo mode on and instead of just holding the key down... it presses the key once every 1/2 second. WOW. Serious piece of shit. Stick with an xbox controller, at least that will work for all games out of the fucking box. also, steam controllerhas two annoying paddle buttons on the bottom, that are way too easy to press. very annoying. also, feels cheap.
>>
>>343194267
I'd tell you to wait until the new consoles come out but they want to release a new "gen" every 1-2 years so...

If you like Xbox One's exclusives better get it, otherwise the PS4 has better overall performance. Personally I like the Bone's games a bit better, I wasn't that enamored with Uncharted 4's GREATNESS. The Bone can easily use an external hard drive for extra storage, PS4 is a lot more needlessly stupid. Controller is hands down Bone, the PS4's needs to be charged a lot due to that giant LED.
>>
>>343194267
Well i think that with the content released for each platform and looking at the near future, you would be absoloutely fucking retarded to not get the PS4 over the Xbox one.
Legendary games are getting released soon.

The dev kits weren't sent as soon as Nintendo mentioned the NX for the first time. Developing good games takes time, so Nintendo doesn't want to rush the devs.
