PS4 or Xbox One - Whataya Buyin?

With the E3 dust settling, people are starting to take their stands on which console to buy, PS4 or Xbox One. Some love Xbox One, others PS4, and both sides have their reasons. Unfortunately most people just can not afford both at launch and so are forced to chose a side, even if they have no horse in this race. So what are we buying? Well I asked the team to tell me which system appealed to them the most and why. And, even though LevelSave is a family, families have disagreements.

Both, the game bundles will determine which one i'll get first tho.

Extra information:
Not getting either at launch
Waiting for bundles eg: 2 controllers + 2 games.
Depending on what games, then that would be the first console ill get.

Kanzes3957d ago

PS4 first because it's cheaper, then Xbox One so I can still play Halo

Kanzes3957d ago

Halo 4 is still good, Maybe it's not great as Halo 3 or Reach, but it's still fun

And I expect more Gears of War and The Last Guardian too for next-gen :)

georgeenoob3957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

I was gonna buy both, but now just the Xbox since there's no more drm.

@classy
Do you really expect a next-gen halo to be so similar to halo 4?

SonyWarrior3957d ago

im getting ps4 with: psn+, watchdogs, BF4, Order 1886.

sobekflakmonkey3957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

All seriousness aside...that title "Whataya Buyin?", who laughed out loud at that? because I did, I loved that in RE4, that merchant guy was ACE!

But yeah, I already Pre-ordered my PS4 and everything, I live right next to a mall and there's an EB Games(Canadian Gamestop), a Best Buy and a Future Shop, as well as a target, pre-ordered at EB though, gonna hit that up for the midnight launch!

HammadTheBeast3957d ago

Public service message. Not even half of the PS4 first year exclusives have been shown off yet.

abzdine3957d ago

PS4 all the way!
i don't support capitalist bastards so they're not gonna get a cent from me! maybe used in 5 years!

NukaCola3957d ago

PS4. I've been enjoying Sony consoles since 1996 and I've never been disappointed.

X1 is now back on the table with the changes, however $500 and their extra fees are still a NO for me.

Haven't made my decision yet. Still waiting on games and more details on each console

Spontogical3957d ago

I'm getting the PS4 first. Definitely not at launch anymore though. There is just nothing really that special about the new consoles apart from prettier graphics right now.

Xbox One, maybe at the end of the generation when Kinect is not included/dropped. I might just avoid the XBOne on principle like I did the 360 simply because of MS's methods/ways of handling things.

Time will tell.

reef10173957d ago

Sir I disagree... it should be a 30 pack and a ps4

AngelicIceDiamond3957d ago

I disagree, the last thing you wanna do is puke all over your shiny new console.

Heisenburger3957d ago

Lol they disagree.

"No my good sir, that is the very FIRST thing I wish to do with my shiny new console."

Kingthrash3603957d ago

I hear thats what they are gunna do to the xb1, buy it, play it, then puke all over it in buyers remorse.

ChipdiddyChip3957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

I am getting both but if I had to choose one, it would be xbox one due to the fact the games they showcased at e3 were more enticing for me than the ps4 games.

jon12343957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

thank you!

Yes, I really can't wait to play Halo in 1080p 60fps, Titanfall multiplayer, and Minecraft One Edition with my friends.

HammadTheBeast3957d ago

And I'll be doing all that on my PC! Good luck.

Mainsqueeze3957d ago

you will be playing the new halo on your pc?

HammadTheBeast3957d ago

I don't really care or even like Halo anymore, they're breaking it every year, last good Halo was 3 and last Great Halo was 2.

aceitman3957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

I expect ms to show the same games while sony shows more new ones at gamescon its another big one for sony at the uk a couple new ips and lbp3 god of war redemption , uncharted 4 , while the Tokyo game show will bring the last guardian and a couple rpgs. maybe ms will show something but I just have this feeling that they let everything out from the backlash they got on mays showing. but for me is ps3 , I think its the safe point , and im a little skeptical on ms developing the x1 in 3 years time .

abzdine3957d ago

do you think all games will be available day one? do you guys have a brain to think?
Do you also think about Sony only showed their US games? all this without Uncharted and God of War!!!
Gamescom will be about PS4 exclusives again, and this time they will be coming from Euro studios.. same goes for TGS in september!

You wanna get X1? Fine!! but you are getting nothing more than 3 exclusives day one! they've only shown CG trailers how can you say " it would be xbox one due to the fact the games they showcased at e3"
this is one brainless statment

PlayStation 4, and a packet of M&M's.

Heisenburger3957d ago

There is only one question left then....

What type of M&M's?

O.o

How to recruit Lam in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

Lam is among the 120 characters available for recruitment in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. While she is one of the many straightforward recruits, a known bug may prevent players from recruiting her if certain conditions are met. Despite developers’ assurances of fixing the bug, some early access players still encounter issues with recruiting Lam despite attempting the standard method.

Tomb Raider Remastered just quietly censored one in-game detail

Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered players are ticked off by the game’s most recent patch, which censors in-game pin-up posters of Lara Croft.

This is why gaming is screwed. When people change things to fit someone’s agenda, it’s a slippery slope downhill.

Christopher11h ago(Edited 11h ago)

Even if that agenda is of the developer? Way to remove developer rights.

***One player called it a “huge problem with modern games,” saying they can now be “ruined AFTER people buy them”.***

The level of drama. Yes, I recall sitting there for more hours than I did anything else in the game. These two pinups are the core of the game, after all!

coolbeans9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

rlow1's cringe catastrophizing aside, I do think developers *ought* to strive to maintain an original work to the best of their ability. The language of a "remaster" tacitly implies that - for good or ill - what's being resold is what fans remember but better.

Profchaos9h ago

Games can be ruined after purchasing them yeah we know this not from this but from GTA IV which had half it's radio content patched out due to licensing expirations and to me that was a huge deal.

This pin up poster is a bit of nonsense but the whole argument of modern games can be ruined post launch is Absol true.

DedicatedDark8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

It's not their work to censor. They are incharge of restoration & remastering the work, not overwriting it.

Barlos7h ago

It's not the agenda of the developer though, they're pandering and trying to increase their ESG score.

Way to support censorship...

victorMaje7h ago

It’s not the end of the world for sure, but I understand the hate towards this kind of change. I believe it’s also a matter of principle.

Imagine a Picasso painting being restored & the restorer deciding there aren’t enough strokes, or some lines aren’t straight enough or curved enough…not sure it would/should sit well with people.

Have all original devs signed off on this change? Even if it’s the case, are we saying older gamers are better mentally equipped to process what was there than current gamers, hence the change?

Enough time ago the case was made that games are an art form. We’re supposed to have won that case.
So which is it? Are games art or not?

Hasn't this been happened for over a decade since remasters? I can't see that it's any worse now. Maybe if Sweet Baby starts getting their hands on remasters we will definitely have a problem.

Rebel_Scum10h ago

tbh I dont see something like this as censorship. Does anyone else not find it strange for someone to stick pin ups of themsleves in a locker room?

Now of it was a pin up of some half naked firefighters it might make sense as Lara might like that, and if they removed that I would cry censorship. But removing pin ups of the main character, yeah I get it.

Barlos7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

It's a game, and they were placed there for the audience. It's not real life. If it was, she wouldn't have fought a T-Rex now would she?

Yes, it's censorship but it's a bit less in your face. If they were in the original game, then they should have been in the remasters. It's bad enough that they have that ridiculous unnecessary warning at the start, but then they start removing things post launch. I don't care how small the change, they shouldn't be doing it. It's nothing but ESG pandering but in a subtle way.

Rebel_Scum6h ago

Look bro, if you have pictures of yourself naked on a bear skin rug up in your house let me tell you, its not normal.

jambola4h ago

I wasn't aware censorship was based on what made sense to you

Rebel_Scum4h ago

Likewise, what a stupid comment.

jambola4h ago

I agree
Your comment was pretty stupid

Rebel_Scum3h ago

I never said censorship is based on what I say dumbass. Just because I dont see this as censorship doesnt mean I’m saying others cant.

How about you come at me with your opinion rather than snarky comments with no thought on the matter.

SimpleDad6h ago

By the year 2030, this remaster collection will totally be changed and censored. Probably will remove Lara as a playable character. It's ridiculous. Glad that my family didn't buy this.
I still have Tomb Raider 2 PS1 as a memory.

jambola4h ago

Those shorts are a little revealing
Should probably make them snow pants

Barlos4h ago

They'll probably make her trans

CobraKai6h ago

It’s mentioned in the article, and it’s a point i 100% agree with, it’s the fact that they can censor a game after you buy it. That’s total bullshit.

Killer2020UK6h ago

Whilst it's an overreaction to say this has "ruined" the game, it's still problematic that this has happened post launch and for many, post-purchase.

I don't want someone to change a product for the worse after I've bought it. The same goes for implementing micro transactions after reviews.

I wonder why they did this? Nobody was kicking up a fuss as far as I'm aware.

Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster Review – You Are Your Job, Apparently

Gary Green said: In a time where an enhanced, 3D remake of Final Fantasy III already exists, it’s hard to argue that Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster is the definitive version we were expecting. With Final Fantasy III already being the last in the series to be translated and make its way west, this is something of a slap in the face for the fans. Still, let’s not be disheartened. There may be many shortfalls in this edition of Final Fantasy III, however there’s no denying that this classic JRPG still holds some nostalgic value, even if it struggles to break away from its original hardware limitations.

FACTUAL evidence11h ago(Edited 11h ago)

It’s funny I’m seeing these articles about pixel remaster, and I just platinumed 1-4 within 8 days lol. I’ve been on FF5 for about a week now. Let’s just say 5 was the start of FF having content like crazy. I should have the plat within 2-3 days.

MrBaskerville2h ago

The game being an accurate represantation of the original was not a slap in the face to the fans. The 3D remasters looked like ass (visually) tbh.
