Hello, I'm thinking of getting a console again after years of just PC gaming and I was wondering what games are exclusive to each console that people would class as "must" buys?

I'm only buying one or the other and just wondering which games I will miss out on if I hopes one or the other.

I used to love gears of war which I think is Xbox exclusive? I used to love FF games as well but i believe they are PlayStation exclusive?

Cheers in advance.
 
Well as you can play XB1 games on PC, buy a PS4 and any XB1 exclusive play on PC? I don't know how it works (or even if it can) if you don't own a XB1 but a possibility to avoid having to decide an either or.

Xbox - Tomb Raider!
Don't both platforms have that?

To my limited knowledge:
Xbox exclusives are games such as Gears of War, Halo, Forza
PS4 exclusives are The Last of Us, Uncharted series, Bloodborne etc

I'm sure someone will be along to give you a better list :)
 
Gears of War 4 and Gears of War 1 Ultimate Edition are the on PC, Gears 2, 3 and Judgement are Xbox exclusives only. So if you want to play the previous games in the series and same for Halo, you will need an Xbox One.

Only Final Fantasy 10 HD is a Playstation exclusive but thats on PC now anyway. The rest of the FF games released in current gen including FF15 which is coming out next month is on both platforms.

If you are after games like, Uncharted 4, Ratchet and Clank, The Last Guardian or even PSVR. Then PS4 is the way to go, anything else get the Xbox One.
 
Sea of Thieves is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by Rare and published by Microsoft Studios for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One, set for release in 2017.
 
If you still have a decent gaming PC I'd go for the PS4. Most of the exclusives worth playing on Xbox one are or will be available on PC.

Tomb raider also isn't a Xbox exclusive, it was timed for a year.
 
PS4:

The Last Of Us
Uncharted collection
Uncharted 4
Bloodborne

X1:

Dead Rising 3
Forza Horizon 3 (If you don't have it on PC - if you buy this digital you can play it on both, this applies to more games but I don't know which ones)
Gears of war 4
All the backwards compatible games if that interests you

If you have a gaming PC already the best combination would be a PS4 and gaming machine imo, unless you have a real interest in playing all the last gen titles.

I'm very much an Xbox One guy, play all cross platforms on it, but the PS4 has the better exclusives of the ones i've played.

Get a PS4, most of the Xbox exclusives will be available on PC from now on anyway. You would be missing out on a lot more exclusives if you got an xbox.
 
Does the Disney Infinity work in modern consoles? Thinking of getting that for the lad.

I love Halo/GoW exclusives but I hate Xbox pads and there are some decent PS4 games, struggling :p
 
Uncharted, The Last of Us, Driveclub, Infamous: Second Son, Bloodborne, Yakuza (one of the best series ever made in my biased opinion, quirky and clunky at times but with tons of atmosphere and offering one of the most rewarding fighting experiences ever; basically a Shenmue cousin). Lots of interesting upcoming ones as well which almost certainly won't flop: God of War, Horizon, FFXV, Days Gone, Detroit, new Gran Turismo etc.
