I went from PS3 to 360 then to PS4 (I do however own an Xbox One as well but Destiny is on Playstation 4).
PS3 was horrible with its servers, I remember playing games and always getting disconnected for reasons that were not my own. Despite this, I loved playing it and put something like 27 days on MW2 and then time on other games.
Went to 360, paid for live and it was so smooth, no problems. Maintenance was scheduled, they let you know when it was happening and ETAs to coming back up.
Made the switch back to Sony and PS4 for friends IRL and the first thing I notice is how bland the main screen is, and how messages take forever to load, (xbox it's instant, same with achievements, and the sweet backgrounds... I mean come on! When you get an achievement you can look at the art work for it and set it as your background)
Also the player profile is much more in depth.. For those who care about it. Notice on PS4 how short your "about me" aka description is.. How can I briefly introduce myself in 10 words? It's a joke! You can showcase and customize your profile others see much better on Xbox. I know, some people don't want a "social" console but ignore if you don't like it.
Ps4 is slow for some reason, messages and trophies take a while to load. Upwards of many minutes! Even on the app. I usually just text my friends instead.
Oh! NOT to mention how poorly sony updates status on its badly structured network. They don't keep us informed, take days longer than Microsoft to keep things running. Its pathetic.
I love both consoles but for reasons clear, xbox outperforms Ps4! They are way more involved with their community. Their home menu has news, deals on games, videos and informative items.. PSN? Pft here are 5 backgrounds to choose from.. News on PSN? Nah use google
Just my opinion and deep down ps4 owners know it's true. Had my friend not switched without telling me, we'd be on xbox. Not a fanboy, spent equal time on both consoles but these things are facts:
[b]XBOX:[/b]
[b]o[/b] Xboxs messaging quicker, more reliable and getting in game messages only take up 1/4 of the screen.
[b]o[/b] Used profiles more in depth and interactive
[b]o[/b] Better and more stable service in Live
[b]o[/b] More communicative maintenance team.
[b]o[/b] Achievement app very interesting with stats and specific challenges for games.
[b]o[/b] You can change your gamertag
* I also like how if you turn the Xbox off (if you have setting right) and come back later, click the game you were playing, it will be there from where you were instantly.*
[b]PS4:[/b]
[b]o[/b] Simpler home screen
[b]o[/b] Controller lights up (battery life SUCKS)
[b]o[/b] Better specs
[b]o[/b] Saving game clips up to 15 minutes
[b]o[/b] Cannot change PSN ID.. [spoiler]LAME[/spoiler]
These are all small things, except live service. I will continue to use Playstation as Destiny is on there. I just think Xbox has a tighter, more professional output and service.
Don't get butt hurt! Just my opinion!! Let me know yours.
Edit: Thanks to all of you who understand the points I am making are not to make a "war" but to show you where Xbox outperforms Sony. Those areas would be customizability, communication and response.

Firstly, controller light can be adjusted. 2ndly Why the hell would you need to change your name? Sure you can use it for trolling but the community would be worse if they had this feature on it. 3rd Backwards Compatability WILL be coming out soon on a different version of the PS4, as Sony's CEO states.

9 답변Who remembers when Xbox was going to -blam!- over all it's users with Xbone with the manditory online check in, the super strict DRM, the always on kinetic with the big brother legality clause? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Also Playstation is the reason your DRM got reversed because they absolutely slammed Xbox with the "How to share games with a friend" video shortly after Xbox had announced that. Imagine all the games you would have bought and hated yet were unable to return because of the strict DRM.

I turn my system on and play a game. I don't give 2 shits about the screen and how it looks. I do care that my graphics are amazing and that is exactly what I get when I play games on ps4. The messages work fine and my psn didn't have all the issues like everyone else had.

19 답변What you didn't point out was xbox live was a paid service from the beginning while ps3 had free online play. That being said you could get plus for discounts and free games every month. Did xbox ever do that? Nope. Also the price difference between 1 year memberships. Xbox live GOLD is 60$, while PS Plus is only 50$. Though it's only 10$ difference, 10$ is still 10$. Also PS supports indie games and developers very well, while xbox does not. More games for a gaming console, while there is more media, social media and entertainment apps for the xbox. Take your pick. A gaming console or a entertainment station. Personally I play games of a gaming console.

I have owned the first 3 play stations and all 3 xboxes. I will for the first time not own the new play station because I always find myself ignoring it for my xbox. I base it strictly on user interface and controller preference.

3 답변작성자: NilSatisSteel 1/28/2015 8:52:58 PMI have both consoles but xbox is by far the better for everything except ps4 has slightly better graphics I guess which at the moment you can't tell but maybe 3 years down the line might be a big difference. Xbox just has everything such as the entertainment side plus voice activation! Etc Just love the xbone! Use the ps4 for exclusives only ! Oh and the controller goes without saying! FPS games can only be played on xbox pad IMO lol

4 답변I don't own a PS4 so I can't judge. But the Xbox has got this whole cross platform gaming with the PC coming soon in Windows 10 so it looks like Microsoft is doing a pretty fine job.
