I am just buying both as this gen it made a lot of sense to have both.

OverclockN' · Jan 2, 2020, 11:58 AM

I definitely plan on on getting a PS5. The exclusives are amazing. As mentioned before, the XBox has no exclusives. I can play all those games on PC, so it's pointless for me to get one regardless of whether or not I can afford it. My XBox ONE hasn't been used for gaming since Forza 6 was released. It's the only game I ever bought.

99% of people would be better buying a PlayStation or PC. The 1% is a mystery heh.

Anyway just an opinion (solidly grounded though heh), I'm off to drink a full tea glass of booze and Happy New Year to you all with your pointless xboxes

To even argue this is a sign of a good life really.

I paid about £300 for my XboneX in a sale and £425 for my 5700XT. The Xbox plays games at 4K (OK not real 4K but better then PS4 pro checkerboard) and the whole family can watch 4K DVD's in the living room. Can't do that with a playstation.

It all depends on what games you like to play. For instance I'm not remotely interested in exclusive games like God of War or Spiderman (might be my age I'm 60 this year) but Dirt 2, Madden 19, F1 2018, FIFA 19 are great on my XboneX as compared to my PC. Plus the PS4 is not backwards compatible like the XboneX so you can't play your back catalogue. Plus I pay £7.99 p.m for my gamepass and have access to loads of games including new releases. No brainer really.

Nascar24 · Jan 2, 2020, 05:50 PM

Will pick them both up as I have 400 games on the box which are not all playable on pc.

SubCog · Jan 12, 2020, 12:22 AM

Original xbones will play all nextgen games, at least for the first couple years. We'll see if this proves to be a smart strategy. https://kotaku.com/first-party-xbox-...for-1840932708

--edit: looks like it's just MS first-party games. Does that mean 3rd parties can make xbox series X exclusives? I guess we'll find out more later.

I just gave mine away to a buddy. Only played it 3 times since release.

While I appreciate their multi-platform strategy, I don't think its going to be good for the average joe consumer.

How so?

They're literally doing everything to attract avg Joe.

Napoleonic · Feb 14, 2020, 02:46 AM

I wonder what kind of ray tracing support will the next gen consoles have?

From the AMD leaks PS5 will have accelerated RT with no dedicated cores. Series X is next gen rdna and has dedicated Hardware RT cores.

In the short term it's good. But in 2 years when some games are only on xbox series x and not on xbox one x, you're going to just have a lot of confused gamers.

Why would this be confusing. Each console generation eases the transition between generation systems.

People going to be confused with Sony? They're going to support the PS4 for a few years as well.

Yup. It's really simple: As long as you have a console that's semi-recent, it'll play everything.

Dungeoncrawler · Feb 15, 2020, 01:33 AM

Any chance the coronavirus could delay release of both consoles? I've heard yes and no depending on the article one reads.

It's quite possible because it's creating some possible parts shortages from a few things I've read.

Man that has to have sony and Microsoft losing some serious sleep at nights? If they miss the holiday season...implosion!

Personally as hard as it is I think waiting for the second or 3rd revision is the safe bet.
