PS4 Versus Xbox 720

Okay, it’s true nothing is truly known about the PlayStation 4 or Xbox 720, the next generation of consoles, but we can’t help but wonder: which will be better? What should you, as a gamer, be looking for when it comes time to shell out another $400-600?

It would be nice if there was one giant conglomerate for game consoles, a PXii kind of thing, but that will never happen. So what differentiates PlayStation games from Xbox gamers?

There are a few common grounds for the consoles that have gravitated players. Most Xbox players are dedicated to a certain game that is Xbox-only, like Halo or Gears of War. But games like Call of Duty span both consoles!

It all depends on what kind of gamer you are. Yes, PS and Xbox are both great for RPG-adventure games, personal shooters, and party games. We do admit, though, that the Xbox Kinect’s motion sensor (instead of a controller) beats the PSMove. A rumor a few months ago said that the PS4 was in development with a Kinect-type sensor, yet it is just a rumor.

But Sony has always had better quality graphics in the PlayStation than the Xbox, probably because they specialize in televisions and software while Microsoft focuses more on software.

I’ve heard so many complaints about the “red ring of death” on the Xbox 360, but the newer versions have already fixed this issue. So now what? They’re still beat on graphics.

Even though it broke down, PlayStation Network is very similar to Xbox Live, although it seems that Xbox Live ends up with more dedicated players due to their social connections: it’s always better to play with a friend than by yourself (FYI, this is why Wii will never be on par: they don’t have a comparable online network).

So where do you weigh in? Look at the current generation and tell us which console you prefer? What do you expect from the PS4 and Xbox 720 in the future? Which would you buy first?

Future of consoles to be released

Are the next gen console PS4 or Xbox 3 really coming soon?
In this age of gaming wars where companies fight for the supremacy of the gaming industry, Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft have been competing. These companies have been trying hard to woo the consumers with variety of features. In addition, most of all the age of integration has come now with adding of more than one device into the other. Gadgets are made such that they perform works of other gadgets too.
For example the PlayStation 3 which is a gaming rig and a technology marvel is made for killer graphics and excellent performance. Apart from that, a blu ray drive is integrated into it so that it can be used as a blu ray player eliminating the need to buy a standalone blu ray drive. A 160 gb hard disk is also added in the drive so that one can save photos , videos, songs and others. In Wii, you have card reader so that one can connect media to the console and use it as a media player. Xbox console is the best ever online gaming device now with millions and millions of people using it for online gaming.
Millions of dollars have been diverted to the research and development of these devices over the past years where each company tried to outcast the other by improving their consoles. The playstation updated to playstation two and later on to playstation three. Xbox released a normal Xbox and then upgraded to Xbox 360. Like this the fight among these companies have brought to the best of gaming devices available now .
But since they made a trend of bring up newer consoles now and then , everyone is looking forward for a Xbox 3 and the PS4 . Though these are good enough for now, the rumors of next generation of consoles under development are creating raves.
Considering the amount of money spent on the development of these consoles the companies would not want to release out a new one they still did not capitalize much on it yet. and also this will cause a heavy pressure from the software manufacturers as all that they made for these consoles will be obsolete if a newer console comes up . so possibility of releasing a newer version of these consoles until 2012 -2013 is very meek .
Why should they release a new console when the rigs they made are good enough for some more year from now and it’s a strongly wise decision to stick to it. But then again if someone else dares to launch a new console sooner they can capitalize on that initially but sooner and later due to the completion others will also have to follow and release newer model but eventually it’s the consumer who will be happy with such kind of move than the companies.
So finally it is clear that there is as such no need to release newer models but they will certainly delay the release as long as possible . However, someone will blink first in between for sure!!
