Ps4 or Xbox one

[Baz300]

My son has already asked me for the new Xbox for his Christmas but he lives in the country where broadband is not available yet! So they means he won't be able to use it at all.

He also normally buys second hand games with the pocket money he saves.


He will be getting offerd a PS4 now.

Buy a mifi or use a phone as a personal hotspot thats got unlimited data?

Or just buy a PS4, easier, cheaper and better machine 

I talked him into a PS4, preorderd at the weekend just hope it arrives before Christmas now.

The problem is I will have to treat myself to a new tv then :)

Xbox have had a chnage of heart now though, can now play used games, and no longer need a permamnent internet connection. Dunno what those desk monkeys where thinking TBH.

It was always going to happen, Microsoft would have had to been total idiots to release the Xbox in that way! I still feel that the Playstation is the console for me. May be a little to late for some Xbox fans also, who knows it may be something they do in the future once you have bought the console !

my mate thinks it was a publicity stunt

tbh it boils down to what franchises you prefer. apart from Gears i have no interest at all in Xbox exlusives. and the Last of Us on it's own is enough of a reason to stick to Sony.

It's official, Microsoft just published a complete reversal on Xbox One DRM Policies.

The important parts:

- No more always online requirement
- The console no longer has to check in every 24 hours
- All game discs will work on Xbox One as they do on Xbox 360
- An Internet connection is only required when initially setting up the console
- All downloaded games will function the same when online or offline
- No additional restrictions on trading games or loaning discs
Region locks have been dropped

Because of this, the new console should now be called "Xbox One 80".

Cancelling that pre-order now then with the policy reversal? Poor kids dreams crushed!! ;)

There was talks that the price of games are going to shoot up for the Xbox as they are going to loose a lot of sales due to only being sold once!

Doubt it, they have already announced the price of their 1st party games. Exactly the same as the 360.

What an embarrassing U-turn by Microsoft.  Can only wonder how many people they've still lost over this.

[nathangallo]

Ye I know a lot of people who have 'converted' over haha!
