As far as next-gen consoles go it is clearly the better value...that may be like saying that a $50 bottle of water is a better value than a $100 bottle of water or a $45 1/2 half-empty bottle of water...but still.

Who really cares about console sales? I just want good games... which both systems don't have yet!

FFS! Don't call it "the One" Tazer... that's just what they want you to do!

LOL

@Chubby... Ass Creed IV: Black Flag is a great game... I think on the PS4 it's in 1080p.

You are correct Jem ACIV is 1080p. There are only 2 titles that are sub 1080 on the PS4 currently. Here's a comparison list ~ http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/02/17/...ub-1080p-games/
