    What's your chosen console? I've stayed xbox and am anticipating something special from both again to be honest. Does anyone know anything interesting about either consoles??

    Re: xbox one or ps4??

    Am a current xbox360 player, but will be switching to ps4 because;
    1. No backward game compatability on either console means no loyalty to stick with one over the other.
    2. Next cod game will be 1080 on ps4 but only 720 on Xbox. Rumours of Xbox being underpowered - I'll take my chances with ps4.

    Ps4 for me GTJOSHHopefully i will get one without any of the initial glitches they have.I think they sold 1million units in the first 24hr in the USA out of them around 1% have developed faults.

    Surely the way to go is to get Steam for the PC. No problems with backwards compatibility there. Or indeed having to buy a new console every time one comes out.

    http://store.steampowered.com/

    I've never seen such a website as that (not that I've looked) That seems really good.

    Do you not need a mega powerful PC to play modern games though?

    My brother swears by Steam.

    For those that don't already own a good PC, basically you can spend the money buying one that you saved by not buying a console, lol. It will play the games and do everything else a PC does that a console doesn't. Plus it's upgradable, plays all the old titles. Has a plethora of cheap games available. You can even improve on the graphics of the console if you have a very powerful machine and can max all the settings.

    Of course there will always be drawbacks. Such as Steam may not have the game you want, or that it may not have the latest games available on the day they are released. It's not as portable if you're using a desktop tower. I don't really know as I've not used it myself.

    Isn't it more a case of Forza 5 or Gran Turismo 6? (*)

    * Assuming GT6 is being launched on the PS4?

    Pc and steam for me. Pretty much has all the best games avalable and nearly all have the option to use an xbox controller or similar.

    I think when Steam box gets released, (basically a pc with a gamers operating system) then things will look interesting!

    Playstation 4! Got mine last week.
    Been flat out on Need For Speed the last couple day's.
    It's a really good game once you start unlocking features and upgrading the cars. Also got killzone, cod-ghost and battlefield 4.

    Anyone else got a PS4 yet? Tomb Raider was awesome, online feature was about as good as playing a Atari!

    Re: xbox one or ps4??

    i used to be 360 but decided to spend some serious money on a pc an use steam/origin and uplay now my 360 sits in a box packed away. pc does have its downsides tho the parts are more expensive than a console if you wanna play games on ultra settings. and the games dont always come out at the same time as consoles. like gta for instance which still isnt out

    I like the idea of Aliens, but not the fact it's not unlimited like Zombies, was big fan of that, looking forward to the next edition.

    With a bit of luck I'll have Black Flag for my birthday (I've laid heavy hints with the wife!) and Driveclub looks interesting.

    For me I want to play an F1 game but there doesn't seem to be one in development?
