I'm on the fence. I like the xbox, because of the stuff you can do without playing games, but ps4 can do many of the same things. I like picture in picture xbox has. I liked my 360 more than ps3. I'll eventually get both.
Anybody besides SmokeyVol have both that can give an opinion?
I have both and I also would advise you to get whichever system your friends have. If that's not a consideration and you aren't interested in using it to control your television, I would get a ps4. The Xbox audio and gaming headset issues still irk me. Plus, Playstation Now has potential.
But it really downs come down to personal preference. The systems aren't that different.
