Wow, there's just so much stupid shit you can't do with the PS4 yet all the fanboys are still walking around with a boner in their pants. Both systems are terrible (so far). Just pisses me off that alot of people think the PS4 is superior in every way. Personally, im not getting either system until this whole thing dies down and we really see what is worth getting, if anything. I would be more than happy to join the PC snobs at this point.

Agreed that PS4 isn't all that. I see no reason to get it at launch until Infamous and a few other games come out. My plan is to pick one up by June of next year, when the kinks are ironed out and all the good games are out. While I'm kind of mad you can't back up anything on PS4 to external storage (why, exactly?) I'm not shook up about it.

The Final Bosman - The Battle of the Bands
(YouTube link if GT's player doesn't work for you)

I have no idea if this is going to be funny for people who don't watch The Final Bosman regularly because it's the ending of a long-running joke, but I thought I'd share since it's still a fun analogy. I really like how positive Kyle Bosman is when it's popular to be cynical and angry about everything.

I aint getting a PS4 until at least 2015. Basically because the golden age of console gaming is over, and the amount of sold consoles worldwide will never surpass those of previous console generations. I'm still amazed by some graphics on PS3, and developers will still continue to release games for the PS3 until at least 2016. So I see no reason for me to buy a PS4 at the moment. Unless the gameplay mechanics for PS3 ports from the PS4 really sucks donkeyballs, only then will I consider buying a PS4.

So now that the PS4 is out, does anyone have it? I'm not planning to get it but I'd love to hear you guys' opinions on it.

I do think its a super improvement over the PS3. the UI is quick and it looks clean. Its just.....Nice to use. Then, i love how they did the same thing with the 1st PS3 with the touch buttons. And they made the power button hidden. As in it will take you awhile to figure it out the first time and then your like, "heh, thats awesome"

Then the controller......there are some minor details i like more about the DS3 but the DS4 is overall better. It does feel like a controller and not a plastic......thing.

UPDATE: Well, kind of expected something like this would happen. the day one PS4 patch makes most of the games crash, laggy, unresponsive.... fudge http://kotaku.com/ps4-day-one-update-is-breaking-things-ea-says-1465358622

.......Well i personally had no issues. Besides the abundance of empty servers and connection errors. Ehh, oh welll.

BF4 looks sooooo pretty. Resogun is awesome with its blocky explosions and human throwing. Off to try Contrast.

Nothing I've seen in the first batch of trailers makes me want to get a PS4 - the new one Resogun looks rather good, but the one I'm really looking forward to is the new Infamous, and that doesn't drop until March.

Yea, honestly guys.......i would wait on getting a PS4. Yea, its cool but there isnt really much you can do with it. Most of the games that was announced doesnt get released in 2014 and most of the features doesnt get patched in until later.

And you can try to find a PS4 during the classic black friday deals or holiday shenanigans but chances are, it will be sold out instantly. So yea......good luck

I got to try out the DS4 at the mall today (didn't bother with the demo since it was FIFA or something) and it's amazing. The triggers feel so good. I like the analog sticks too. Although I didn't have a huge problem with them on the DS3 because I push them from the outside, they just feel more fluid. Overall, the whole controller feels a lot nicer quality-wise and less clunky. I'm not the kind of person to feel like next-gen tech ever makes last-gen games "unplayable," but I really don't want to go back to the DS3 now. :heh It's definitely the best PS controller I've ever used, and it might dethrone the Wavebird as my favorite controller ever.

Fun Fact: The Dualshock 4 can be used on the PS3. And PC.

I havent gotten the PS home button to work on the PS3 though....dont know if its just me or if its intended. I like the new controller a lot as well. I had some of those 3rd party triggers on my DS3 but that was about it. Its just the analog sticks im not sure about yet......they are ok, but they seem too "sticky". it seems harder for me to switch between the Dpad and the sticks on the DS4. The DS3 had that nice balance so i can glide off when i need to without losing the grip.

*gahh, this sounds weird but hopefully you understand.

I did hear about that! Seems like it's compatible with all of my favorite PS3 games, minus Burnout Paradise and I dunno about SSX. I want to say that the home button issue is universal, not just you?

I can kind of see what you mean about the sticks. It's hard to know what the issues are until you've played with it a while. I'm mostly hoping that the triggers won't kill my joints when playing games that require holding them down for a long time. For a while after SSX came out, my (mostly right) middle and index fingers almost felt dislocated from switching off on trigger duty. :heh

I was going to by one but they are sold out everywhere. :heh When I say everywhere, I mean none of the game and online stores will get a new stock of PS4s until 2014, so I can't test out the "Crappy Awesome" Next-Gen Console anytime soon...
At least I can still enjoy glitchy Battlefield 4. (did they even beta test the game?)

So what's the general consensus on PS4 vs Xbone in the general media? Both good? One by far the better console?
