Sony has "done a nice job with PS4", says Xbox One's Phil Spencer
"Nintendo, I think - and there's some argument about this - that their first-party is such an amazing asset," he began, when our colleagues in the US asked what he had learned from rivals. "Their first party studios and IP can lead what they do as a company and the platforms are almost in service to the IP - not in a bad way.
"They have such iconic stories and this will seem somewhat random, but when we go back and do something like Killer Instinct, a little bit of the history of your franchise can actually be important part of people feeling connected. Obviously the history of Killer Instinct isn't a history on Xbox, but it's Rare's history and I think the reaction when we announced it on-stage at E3 showed that playing to the people's heart, I think Nintendo does that as well as anybody in terms of hitting the franchises and having huge success with them."
As for PlayStation, Spencer is cheered by Sony's willingness to back developers like Quantic Dream, creator of the intriguing but rather oblique Heavy Rain. "Sony - and I'm focused on first-party because of what I do - I really respect their focus on investing in new things and creative things, what they've done with David Cage and Quantic Dream around Beyond [Two Souls] and Heavy Rain; they stay committed to franchises even if they don't sell 10 million units, they'll stay committed to things.
"I think that long-term commitment to franchises is important, where it's easy to pull off the Band-Aid and move onto the next thing [if it doesn't sell]. I respect their 'stick-to-it-iveness'. I'll say, they've done a nice job with PS4 [...] When I think about their announcement, their clear focus on a customer, leading with the value proposition of what they're trying to do, staying true to a vision, I think they've done a nice job in how they defined the PS4."

I think both consoles did great! Yeah, they both have their special "features." But I like them both, but if I get one, I will have to say Xbox One. I am just an xbox fan, that's the main reason, I would also like to try out the Kinect.

LiaKatsumiLotKatsumiEpicremix567 although the ps4 is technically better i will always be a xbox fan :)
It really depends on the individuals opinion when it comes to consoles.. they both fundamentally do the same thing anyway
Yea i got xbox one because i dont really care about exclusives im mainly a cod fan and why go with the other system when ive had a xbox 360 already
I'll be picking up a PS4 mainly for the exclusives myself. The console usually gets some good japanese orientated games
I've never had a Japanese game, do you mind recommending me a few? I'd like to check some good ones out.
I'm currently building a recommendation part of the thread on the anime sticky but for now look into the Tales series (namely Tales of Vesparia if you have a Xbox 360 and Tales of the abyss if you own a PS2 or 3DS), also have a look into the obvious one, being the final fantasy series. They have to be the best 2 franchises for beginners due to their high popularity

jstrout626KatsumiStooped PS4 looks rather cool and all but XBOX One has overall better performance and the graphics ae better I think.
From a technical standpoint the PS4 has better specifications.
Yeah the ps4 plays battlefield at 900p and cod at 1080p where as the xbone plays both at 720p exept for cutscenes which are upscaled to 1080p or atleast thats what I've hears. And as for performance the ps4 already has more power but on top of that 10% of th xbones ram goes to the kinect
all games that r on both consoles play at the same level i dont know the number but PS4 only plays better for exclusives
