get whatever your friends are on (if you like playing co-op, or multiplayer). otherwise get a PC. you wont have to pay much more than the ps4 to get a very capable PC.

How much money do you have to spend? And more importantly what do you friends play on?

I would get a PC unless your friends have  PS4s and want to play together. Also get this it is pretty cool. http://www.amazon.com/Vodcart-USB-LED-Fan-Clock/dp/B00DHEK0ME

My Work in Progress PC http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/522048-xeon-build/ <-- That PC was built but never booted:(

My Work in Progress PC 2.0 https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/540583-xeon-build-20-code-name-xenox (Hopefully this one boots.)

How do you set the time in that clock?

 

Oh never mind, there's a picture of the manual in the images.

Mystery is the source of all true science.

Birthday sex isn't too bad of a gift to give... oh wait a gift for yourself? I'm sure you can find some way to work that out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OT: get a PC, more fun to play around with the hardware.

I would buy all of them fan headers, and/or poop.

(watch until 6:30 from the start point I set up)

Personally, I would go with whatever your friends are on, unless you don't play with friends, in which case go PC. I had waaaaaay more fun on my Xbox 360 back in the day when all my buddies were on the same system, but these days I play solo and the PC works much better for that.

Get an external HDD if you don't already have one. They help a lot.

If it's between a PS4 and a $400 PC, I'd 100% take the PS4. If it's between an $800 PC and a PS4, then PC of course.
