everyone anointing Bulls/Pacers in the finals seems to be forgetting about a very stacked team over in Brooklyn

Yeah I'll add you when I get it. I dont use XBL anymore though. I play my multiplayer games on PS3 now, but we can definitely play some 2k14 on the PS4 when I get it.

Live has a lot to prove. 2k is so good and I just don't see Live being better than it. I'm glad it's coming back though, because competition is a good thing, but until proven otherwise I'm still sticking with 2k.

I'm with you 100% bro, 2K is first choice, unless Live has some crazy reviews!

I'm on PS3 2K13 if you want a game, lex-corp_09

I agree with everything MTB and Orlando1214 said! Sony has always been more for gamers and Xbox has been about money and casual fans from the beginning. I loved the Xbox and love the 360 but I've never liked Micro$oft from the very beginning. They are way too greedy and lost a lot of people because of that. I will eventually get the One just because I really like the Dead Rising series and the Halo series.

But I should also be able to get a PS4 soon and 2K14 soon too.

If you haven't yet, you should try pc gaming. With an Xbox 360 controller, it's the best gaming device out there. Of course, it cost quite a bit more, but if you have a good pc already, it's just the price of the card. I play NBA 2k13 fully modded out at 1440p (complete with 2013 rookies, new coaches, pelicans arena, hornets arenas, plus tons of graphic mods). It really is an amazing experience. It's like playing 2k14 already.

I got a PS3, but I still like the PC versions better. Better stats tracking and gameplay for me. You get more of the game via PC.

Sure I'll get on and add you in a bit. I'd definitely be down for some 2k13. My PSN name is NightOnyx, so if anybody else wants to play just send me an invite.

When I was young enough to have time to play video games, PC was the **** and we looked down on the "console boys," because their consoles would not run games like heroes of might and magic, warcraft or civilization. Now that I think about it, it is still the case. :lol:

Xbox One and PS4 are essentially PC's. I'm an Xbox guy (used to be a PS gamer since the original/2) I'm buying the PS4 this time around.

Can't mod games on the X1 or PS4 though and you can't play at a higher res than 1080p. That's huge for me.

Yeah I think whatever fits your needs. I'm happy w the 360 right now and I'm sure the PS4 will be fun. Most of my friends are getting the PS4 so playing w friends it's important for me, plus 1080p is sufficient for me anyways and between both systems the PS4 has the better specs. As far as modding games it sounds fun, I play COD on the 360 and there are most def ways to mod lobbies but it's not really my thing. Too early tell what can and can't be done on next gen consoles.

Oladipo got some good burn in there, three nice dunks and his step back buzzer beater from SL too.

If I had to pick a console, I would easily pick the PS4 right now (my last 2 consoles have been xbox's). I'm a huge fan of the 360 controller though and can't stand the ps3 controller. I definitely want to try out the new ps4 controller before deciding anything (as far as getting a console).

OrlandO · Post #937 » by **OrlandO** » Sun Jul 28, 2013 7:12 am

The only clear reason to get x1 over ps4 is if you really like first-person shooters... endless supply of those on 360 and it looks like that will continue with the new generation. Hopefully Destiny will catch on for PS4...

I think I'm only one that thinks the PS3 controller destroys the 360 controller. LOL.

I think Destiny looks great and will be a big hit. I'm happy Bungie is finally making something other than Halo, and I can't wait to play it. But yeah, I agree with what you said, pretty much if you are someone that really only likes shooters then there's really no reason to get the x1 over the ps4. Even then though, Halo and Gears of War are really the only two shooters that you cant also play on the PS4 or PC. Like that new Titanfall game, it's also going to be on PC, not to mention it's heavily rumored to only be a timed exclusive and will probably eventually come to PS4 anyways.

Sony just offers so much more, especially when it comes to exclusive games, and there is actually variety to them, they're not just all shooters. I know there are still going to be plenty of people that get the Xbox One over the Ps4, but to me the advantages of the PS4 are quite obvious and so that's why I'll be going with it instead of the xbox.

The Real Dalic wrote:I think I'm only one that thinks the PS3 controller destroys the 360 controller. LOL.

Nah, I like the PS3 controller better too. I can understand why some people might not like it though. However, I have yet to see one person say anything bad about the PS4 controller, even from people that say they hated the PS3 controller. It sounds like they really fixed every complaint people had and it's basically perfect now. I know some people still prefer the joystick layout of the xbox controller, so I'm sure some people will like that controller more, but that's fine, I'm sure they are both awesome anyways.

I am very interested though to see how developers use the PS4 controller's touch pad though. I like the idea of using for little things in the game, like for example in the new Killzone you have a drone that follows you around, and you give directions to it by swiping the touch pad. It looks very simple and fluid, but it just adds another aspect to the game that you didn't really have before, while also not really changing up things too much and allowing us to use the controller like we are used to.

Phoenix just got a first rounder for a no-defense-playing PF who averages 14 and 7. This makes me think that Meer, BBD, and AA should each be able to return something similar in value.
