I wanted to go with PS4 at the time both consoles were coming out (and definitely would've if Microsoft went ahead with DRM but thankfully, they didn't.) but all my friends as always go with Xbox. So i had to go with the Xbox One if i wanted to be able to play with them.
Eventually i also got a PS4 as well but haven't really touched it since i haven't got much games to play on it and having to pay for both PS plus and Xbox Live gold doesn't help. I will eventually fire up my PS4 to play Bloodborune and other exclusives though. But if i didn't have any friends on Xbox One, PS4 would be my go-to current gen console to play games.
Both consoles are great (and naturally have their downsides) in their own ways.

Been with playstation always and plan to stay a PS player till I die. Xbox is good and hope Nintendo NX delivers.

Edited by Platinum_Swurve: 2/20/2016 6:38:21 PMGrew up playing Ps1 and Ps2, met a lot of great friends on Ps3 so it just seemed natural to stick with PlayStation. Edit: btw I think we know which one MarcG voted for lol

Exclusive titles have a bit of sway with me (it's BS though third party titles shouldn't really be exclusive at all IMO) but honestly it was the control. I prefer the Ones control to the PS4 that's all.

I have a wii u and smash bros but none of my friends play it.
-
No I do remember. It was the fact MS was, or did, force people to buy the Kinect with the Xbox and I even heard it required it to be connected to play.

Don't remember.

Controller. DS4 wasn't as good as I hoped. Xbox controller is so much more comfortable for me.

To be completely honest, I just preferred the way the PS4 looked aesthetically over the XBONE.

Edited by Hogger: 2/20/2016 3:21:54 AMI chose all three because I just like collecting games for display. Got every eu Wii u and ps4 title then just the exclusives for xbox. I got love for all gaming but my favourite piece of kit is actually the 3DS XL

I bought my PS4 because at the time it was the only real console for gamers. The XB1 was just a cable box with games and the Wii U was for people who loved paying 300 bucks to play the same Mario games. I still think the XB1 is a cable box, but they made giant steps in the right direction. I only wish games were their focus from the beginning, it would probably have outdone the PS4. The Wii U is just the casual box to me, which sucks because I loved my Super Nintendo, N64 and Game Cube. I really hope the NX turns it around for them.

I have both now. But I went for PS4 first, because I wasn't paying more for a bundle containing a less powerful console, because M$ wanted to force me to buy a Kinect 2.

Cuz of my friends. While i have a Playstation Gamer i know thinking Halo is on Playstation.
-
Couldn't decide so i got all 3.
-
I prefer Xbox mainly because I find the controllers more comfotable and the UI easier to navigate. *Tips fedora*
-
I had a 360 and loved it so I bought a one with my friends
-
We made the decision to go PS4 based on features/specs that were out at the time. Had Microsoft tipped off the Win10 integration and back comp features they ultimately rolled out, that may have been different. But.. oh well, I'm not unhappy. I can't justify two consoles, enjoying what i have.

Halo and gears of war and I don't really like playstation menus

Halo was the only reason to buy an Xbox for me.
-
Xbox for friends n preference PS4 for exclusives

Edited by crazeeavery: 2/19/2016 3:46:20 PMMy decision was E3 before they both came out. Microsoft was pushing DMR and Sony wasn't so I went with the ps4
-
Friends and exclusives. Halo is to awesome to turn down

Wow I didn't realize console gamers cared so much about graphics that it would be their deciding factor. That's just silly.
