Gamers prefer PS4 over Xbox One, according to social media buzz

GameZone's Matt Liebl writes, "So who won the first round of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One reveal? If you're judging by social media buzz and response, it would have to go to Sony and the PS4. Fizziology, who last week provided us with a social media breakdown of hype leading up to the new Xbox reveal, has followed up with us, revealing that this week's Xbox One reveal "didn't quite live up to gamers' expectations.""

PS4 is still all about games first.

The new Xbox One seems to focus on the complete opposite, making gaming more expensive, adding DRM, blocking 2nd hand games or borrowed/give-away games. Not to mention the focus on TV TV TV TV TV TV TV, and shoving Kinect up everyone's nose, and spying on you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

In short: PS4 is about FUN (games!), Xbox One will be about GREED.

Indeed. It's stupid that the KINECT wasn't integrated into the new XBOX somehow as it is such an important part of the new system. The PS4 will yet again reign supremen, moreover, the PS4 is has 50% MORE raw power than the ONE (I still can't fathom the how STUPID that damn name is).

Next-gen just seems to be a continuation of this one. The Xbox will continue to become an entertainment hub and get the CoD audience while the PS4 will focus on ALL games.

It only took me about half an hour to completely abandon Microsoft yesterday.
If Sony pulls the same crap with used games at E3, i'll be abandoning them too.

The 1st half hour or the 2nd? lol

GreenRanger3992d ago

@ Minato-Namikaze
It was the first half hour.
The second i found out that Kinect was mandatory i just completely gave up on MS.
I hate Kinect (and motion controls in general), so no feature or game announcement was going to change my decision.

We will see what Ms bring to E3 HOPEFULLY they will come out guns blazing Cause if not..........well Ms will have to abandon the gaming scene quite early.

Build your empire with Farm Tycoon on Xbox

Say what you like, but virtual farming is big business. And that means the release of Farm Tycoon onto the Xbox ecosystem should appeal.

Such a good game to me. Crazy how different peoples opinions can get.

For me it wasn't that surprising. There was some bad press before. There's also the matter and element of a person's disposition when trying out a certain game. Sometimes you're just not really into the type of game that you're playing so you put it down because you don't like it. Not necessarily because it's a bad game but because you're just not up for something like this. Reviewers have a tough because no matter what they feel like playing they've got to play what's releasing.

I have many times gone back to games that I put down only to thoroughly enjoy them the second time around because either there wasn't another exciting game coming out around the same time or I just had no other games to play and haven't played that type of game in a while. I'm not the type of person that can just play a souls game through all this iterations one after the other without getting burnt out on the formula.

In my opinion this game was great from the start. Some bugs here and there but nothing worse than the most AAA releases during the same time after and before. All I did was wait one week and I had a phenomenal time with the game. No other zombie survival game comes close to how I thoroughly enjoyed this one

Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.
