Rice Reef is on a distinguished road
Default Xbox one or PS4

I am thinking of treating my sons and I with one of the newer games systems for Xmas however do not know which one is better. I know that both can play Blu-ray Discs and the graphics on both systems are very good. We enjoy watching 3D movies however I hear that neither supports 3D at this time. Which system would you go for and why?

Thanks

Wayne

I got a PS4 because it's not Microsoft Seriously though, they're both about the same, the camera technology they have in the new PS4 is almost the same as Kinect and it works really well for Just Dance anyhow. My son really loves Lego Marvel and Need for Speed on the PS4

I am leaning towards the ps4 but my sons love their 360 bc of halo and few other titles that are not available thru the play station. Yeah, surprise they are not backwards compatible and I hear that any online games purchased on the old system are not transferable.

Internal or external? Maybe I should hold off on the PS4?

Are these new systems still based on disc technology & hard drives, i.e. games are purchased on spinning media? I'd hope that by now the move is on back to solid state game modules like some of the original games way back when. Blue ray? Now that's another technology with a short life span considering the amount of data that can now be packed on to an SD card the size of a postage stamp.
