what console to get?

[Ilovecake111]

I want to buy a xbox one or a ps4 but i have no idea which one to chose

[Skiiwee29]

Find out what your friends play and get that one? There is not much exclusive between them anymore save for a few things like Halo etc..

PC  no cost for multiplayer, it can be upgraded, better performance, games don't only work for one generation (except for the couple of games that are backwards compatible or whatever) but then again what console do your mates use? you'll have to get the same console  as them for playing multiplayer with them. If you don't have any friends, then get the console with the exclusive games you want (if you want Halo 5 go with xbox etc.) hope this helps.

you can still make a relatively decent pc for £300

plus you could upgrade to an rx 460 for £20 more

Think really hard about the exclusives and what games you want and then decide.

 

I love my gaming laptop, but I definitely wouldn't be able to live with it if it was my only gaming option. If my avatar isn't a giveaway, I love RPGs (Like Falcom's Trails series and Atlus' Persona series) and quite a few of them are only on consoles.

Stick with the PS4, it would wreck that PC in AAA games. You might try to scrounge up £50 more though and get the Playstation Pro if you can hold out until November.

PC  ... it can be upgraded,

Bullshit. I built my PC in early 2013 and need a new motherboard but all the decent ones that were compatible with my CPU (i3-3225) were discontinued years ago. If I want to replace/upgrade my motherboard, then I will have to buy a new CPU as well as new RAM. Fixing my broken USB ports would cost me upwards of 300€. Likewise, a more modern CPU wouldn't fit on my B75IA-E33. And if I was to cheap out and get something made by AMD, then I wouldn't be able to use my Noctua NH-L9i anymore. FUCK THAT! Could have just as well bought another prebuilt thing like the ASRock ION 330 that I had before.

 

Edit:

And I just bought a brand new 500GB PS4 for 199€. My brand new physical copy of Tearaway was 3€. Also got brand new physical copies of LEGO Batman 3 and the new LEGO Star Wars for 10€ each. Zombie Vikings was 5€ but they forgot to scan it at the register.

Also got a brand new physical copy of Bayonetta 2 for the WiiU for 5€.

I agree. Consoles are awesome. 

[not sarcastic] I have several. 

 

I do have a computer, too. I'm one of the rare "likes it all" breeds.
