So who have got both consoles this gen

I picked up X1 over the weekend to play halo. Initially, i was gonna stick to just PS4. But I enjoyed Halo MP on 360, so I thought would be nice to play it again.

For those with both consoles, do you justify owning both now that there are much less exclusives on both consoles.

I have the Wii U. I think it craps all over the 'both' you talk of

This is the one reason I don't have both.

I did have both but sold my xbone for the simple reason that none of my friends had one so had no one to play with. They are both fine consoles though.

I've got an xbone (peer pressure!) I keep looking at the ps4 which is what I wanted in the first place but can't justify it for the few exclusives, maybe £200 I'll bite.

Had both, sold the PS4 looked at a PS4 again recently but still nothing there that really makes me need it.

Xbox at the moment, did eye up a PS4 in Tesco just now but im holding off. trying to curve spending. It's hard

I have both but to be honest, I haven't turned my XB1 on in months. Thinking about selling it but knowing my luck Microsoft will announce something amazing as soon as I do.

HecFam · 2 Nov 2015 at 14:49

Bought XB1 at launch, played it a load, then bought a PS4 a month or two later, havent used XB1 in months, might give it a go for Halo, just gotta buy it first.

I have both but in all honesty I play more on the PS4, the Xbox is mainly used by my youngest son who likes Forza Horizon/NFS.

ScarySquirrel · 2 Nov 2015 at 14:53

I plan on just sticking with the Xbox One. The only game on PS4 that would interest me would be Uncharted really, so I can't really justify owning a PS4 for one game.

Have both and love both. Use the xbox more for online play but I'm a gaming fan - love what they both have to offer.

Raymond Lin · 2 Nov 2015 at 14:57

Have all 3, most games owned on PS4, then Wii U then XB1.

Will tie even between Wii U and XB1 when Tomb Raider next week.

Own both ps4 and xbox one
Buy all my games on the xbox one, because it is much quieter and im not bothered about the whole 900/1080p etc debate
I also prefer the weight and feel on the xbox one controller (especially now i use the rubber backed lunar white controller) and i dislike the ps4 controller feels too light and the battery life is naff on it
Only own the ps4 for exclusives, but not a fan of uncharted/last of us etc, so the next time my ps4 will be used is when ratchet and clank comes out

Plainsong · 2 Nov 2015 at 15:06

I was going to stay PS4 only but I bit at the recent Tesco XB1 deal. It's great to have Halo and Forza back in my life again. Currently use them pretty much 50/50.

Got both, had the ps4 first, haven't even touched it since getting the xbox, much prefer the xbox. I would sell the ps4 but I may as well just keep hold of it in case something awsome comes out for it that is exclusive.

kinger8938 · 2 Nov 2015 at 15:12

Im fortunate enough to have all 3, got ps4 at launch and that was a quiet time, could have held off for a year tbh

Last game i needed the ps4 for was bloodborne, since then only really used it for a bit of destiny but stopped that now.

Picked up an xb1 gears deal a few weeks back and other than the terrible u.i i am really enjoying the console. Used to be against the idea of getting one but halo mcc and 5 were must gets imo and now im set for months. It does a few things better than ps4 imo, feels quicker at the front end. Boots up so quick and can just resume where i left off. Though game installs take the wee wee a bit!!

And then theres the wii u, been in a drawer most the year. Did pick up splatoon on a whim, played it twice and returned the wii u to its drawer. Its a great system but feel its more family orientated etc. Tried to sell it a few times but now just cant be bothered lol

same, just keeping my ps4 for few games, e.g. rocket league, bloodborne and uncharted 4

i like the way xbox going now with the new dash, new controller and really enjoy halo and forza.

Consoles really aren't that expensive considering so I would be happy to buy one just for a single game if I really wanted to play it. Generally I use the Xbone for its exclusives and the PS4 for everything else.

Probably the only console I have ever regretted buying is the Wii U as it's the worst console I have ever owned but still I wouldn't sell it.

kinger8938 · 2 Nov 2015 at 15:23

Yea was trying to sell my wii u but its just not worth the hassle for what you get fir things these days

Will probably give it to my little brother at some point. It has good games but just feels like everything that comes out that is any good is just a mario game or other sort of nintendo character platformer. Not for me, 3d world is fantastic but hat can only go so far

I just dont like the reliance on having the gamepad screen on all the time etc, why couldnt they patch it so you can just completely use the pro controller or something?
