PS 4 IMO, or get yourself a PC :P 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Wii U, Zelda looks freaking amazing

 

But in all seriousness it just depends on what games you want to play, do you like PS4 exclusives or X1 exclusives?

You've asked about xbox twice. Seems like you are already set on xbox, so why ask here, just to bash anyone that suggest you otherwise?

Phill spencer: "I don't want anybody to think [Xbox One S offers] a performance boost for Xbox One games. That's why we said HDR on-screen, and that's what we want to be explicit about. Outside of that, you should expect your Xbox One games to run exactly the same." um i dont think so?

Considering it's over a year away why not just save for a Scorpio? It's going to be more powerful than the PlayStation Neo and with Xbox Play Anywhere you will be able to buy the Xbox version and get a Windows version for free.

Why don't you just use your gaming laptop?

Why is nobody asking why OP even needs the console when he has a fully functional gaming laptop?
