Hey Guys,

I have seen in many places that the PS4 is better than the Xbox One. But I don't see any difference. I'm dying to play Rise Of The Tomb Raider but I have a PS4, so yeah, I can't till December. And I'm thinking about selling my PS4 to buy a Xbox One. But everyone keeps saying that the PS4 is better. Can anyone give me a detailed explanation about this, "How is the PS4 better than the Xbox One"?

Thank You...

In addition to the above, generally the PS4 is running at a higher resolution. Most games are native 1080p (because the ps4 has better hardware), were the Xbone is upscaled from 720p.

Really it comes down to this:
Of your friends, which does the majority play on?
If you dont play with friends, which has more exclusives you want to play?
If you dont have exclusives, do you plan on gaming more or media more?
If you dont care about that, get the cheaper one (you already own one, so that ones cheaper).

I will say, I cant recommend you switch consoles over a single exclusive (especially considering its tomb raider)

PS4:
-Hard Drive can be upgraded by sliding off the top cover, opening up a few screws, and putting in the new hard drive
-More focused on gaming
-Controller feels a bit more better (personally. I've held both controllers, and I find the PS4 more fitting. For my hands atleast)
-Smaller and doesn't take up as much space
-Starts up faster
-Cannot use external hdd to install games on
-Has PS2 game emulation (Doesn't read PS2 game discs, you have to buy the games off the PS store for a cheap price)
-Doesn't read CDs
-Might become 4k with the rumored PS4K console
-Getting virtual reality
-Has 2 USB Ports (A usb hub can be purchased to get even more ports)
-Has rest mode (System is semi-turned off, lower power consumption, can charge controllers and other devices, can download firmware updates and game updates, no fan activity in rest mode, maybe a bit but VERY hard to tell)
-Power supply is internal, no power brick required
-Uses newer ram
-Usually has most framerate and slightly better graphics than the xbox one (only on some games)

Xbox One
-Can use External Hard Drives to install games on
-Hard Drive cannot be upgraded, you would have to buy a new xbox to get a bigger storage amount
-Supports backwards compatibility for some 360 games
-Can be slightly quieter than the PS4 sometimes, has more ventilation
-Only has 1 usb port on the left side of the console, and 2 on the back, makes it 3 but would be better at the front (hub can be purchased for more ports)
-Can be used to watch tv
-More entertainment focused, a bit of gaming
-Requires AA batteries to use controller (Charge and play kit needs to be purchased to charge batteries and play)
-Uses older DDR3 RAM while PS4 uses newer ram
-Has power brick on cord
-Kinect, can be used to turn system off with voice, turn off system, etc.

Now compare all the info together and see which one you find better
