Can someone please explain to me why it costs almost an extra 100gbp to buy it in the UK? :( (I think it's the same scenario with the Xbox One)

Wart Xbox One Pros:
-MAJOR EXCLUSIVES (A lot of exclusive games, first DLC on a lot & more)
-Skype & Party Chat (PS4 won't have because I bet Microsoft would sue)
-Built in TV
-Kinect 2 integration
-Twitch TV integration
& A lot more :)


xbox cons: DRM. PRICE. ASPECT, must connect internet every 24 hours, always on Kinect,etc...


Agreed.


Lets not forget the PS4 has a more powerful gpu.


And more powerful RAM.


Why do you care about a more powerful console? More than half the games you guys are playing are cross-platform. Playstation exclusives can only go so far and those are the only games using more of the PS4s power. It really comes down to Exclusives and what comes with the consoles. Xbox One has better exclusives so far and PS4 has a better price point. Im not a fan of PS4 exclusives so im probably paying a extra $100 for a more enjoyable console for myselfs. Playstation's only entertainment partner is themselfs. (Movies, Music, Video/Console Chat) Not to mention that stupid Ustream partnership. eww. lol


AGREED!
Sony haven't spent a penny on exclusives whereas Microsoft has gone all out and spent millions...


The days of Xbox exclusives ruling are done, I could understand back in halo 3 and maybe stuff like Gears 2, but Playstation has Kingdom Hearts, Uncharted, God of War, The Elder Scrolls online, The Last of Us, Killzone, etc.

Destiny is multi-platform, so is Watch Dogs, Assassins Creed, Call of Duty, Battlefield, and tons more.

The only one I know of at the moment besides Forza 5 is Halo 5... which is a joke, I am one of the biggest halo fans and halo 4 was a let down, it felt like a robotic piece of shit which was nothing near what halo should be. I doubt Halo 5 will be any better.

Right now Sony in my OPINION is on top, Oh and PS4 is more powerful.

If you really cared about the GPU, RAM etc you would buy a PC.


The person that said Sony won't have party chat or Skype is an idiot Vita will have Skype and it's been announced PS4 has party chat.

Anex $399 is around 250 pounds. So why is it 349 pounds? I think Xbox One has my money!


Xbox one is 429 pounds, just to let you know.
Actually it's between 310 and 340 pounds. Get your facts right.


429 Pounds for the Xbox One and 349 Pounds for the PS3.
No need for the attitude, especially when you're incorrect as well. I have stated the facts.


Major nelson even tweeted saying that the xbox one is an extra 100 pounds.

It's the perfect price compared to the XBOX ONE. Not only is it cheap, you won't have to deal with that DRM crap.
