PS4 and Xbox Rumours

The next Xbox controller will be practically the same according to this

I hope they do something about the horrible d-pad but apart from that i'm happy with the Xbox controller.

The current xbox controller (apart from the dpad) is the best controller I've ever used so that's great news.

I'm glad they are not changing the pad much, it's near perfect (apart from the d-pad).

Agree

I always liked using PS3/logitech controllers until I got my hand on the Xbox360 controller for PC. It just felt very smooth and sexy in my hands!! :eek:

I wouldn't put all your eggs in one basket just yet. As much as I am exited over the PS4 I'm sure Microsoft will deliver something that will compete. Backed by strong exclusives like halo, gears and forza, it will be appealing. Furthermore MS have said zilch, so all this talk about restrictive this and media oriented counts for nothing.

All the rumours so far, of which most have turned out to be true but the next xbox having both a worse CPU (only 6 cores available to devs) and a worse memory system (using DDR3 with 32MB SRAM as a cache)

And a lot of the rumours have also turned out to be incorrect. You would have to be a complete moron to believe one system was superior to the other, when the "other" hasn’t even announced a new system exists....

The place that leaked the PS4 specs was spot on, why would they suddenly leak a ton of false information regarding Xbox?

I honestly don't think Microsoft is going to have specs that are equal/better than PS4.

Pretty much no one had a clue about the 8GB GDDR5, apparently was a last minute thing. And maybe Microsoft are better at concealing the specs of their next system.

Either way until Microsoft announce their next system and then detail the specs it's pretty pointless making comparisons. What you think or don't thing regarding the nextbox means little if nothing at all.

If you preorder the PS4 because you prefer the Eco system, or the exclusive games, or any other genuine reason then fine. If you preorder because you think it is going to be technically superior to an unannounced machine then you might as well sign up to be the next mystic meg.

I won't pre-order either, it's a sure fire way to get burned by high prices when there's very little in the way of must have games around.

Well my comment was in reply to

I'm gonna keep my "special editions" Wii and Xbox 360 and get a PS4.

I'm going to skip the next Xbox as its gonna be too home hub/media centre orientated for a games machine. Even then the media centre stuff will have huge restrictions

Which is presuming a lot considering the next Xbox hasnt even been announced yet, so would be wise to "not put all your eggs into one basket".
