Xbox One vs PS4 What Console Is Better?

Catwoman in city was different, you would get it free with any new copy of the game, it was just as a way of encouraging pople to get it new rather than used and you could buy the Catwoman stuff by itself after launch, not the same as forcing Pre orders or having on disc DLC.
 
Hearing that it works just fine on the PS4 is highly incentivizing me to actually buy it SOONER, rather than later. But I gotta get out and buy the complete Arkham City and 100% it on my PSN before I get AK, because I never played any of the DLC (including the gated Catwoman campaign, though I saw the second half of her campaign played by my friend) and I know there's some story-related elements in them. Does the GOTY edition of AC have all the DLC, including the suits and all challenge characters and so on and so on? If so, I might just pick that up in about a month when the price is less inflated due to AK coming out...
 
Well the Steam version of Arkham City is only 20 dollars and it comes with all the DLC. Altho half of that DLC is challenge maps, skins and 2 very VERy short Story based Missions that tell absolutely nothing interesting. But still the base game is fun enough and it has no Tank sections.
 
I already played the game, I just borrowed the disc from the friend I was watching play the latter end of the Catwoman campaign, so I know it's great. It's because I borrowed his disc that I couldn't play the Catwoman missions. I don't mind the DLC, I just care if it's a decent price. And also I would only get it for my PS3, to finish what I started.
 
That's like an annoying thing, amirite? Eh? Eh? =D

Anyway, shitty puns aside, like I said, I'll grab it when the price is less inflated. AK is already notorious for performing THE best on PS4, so it isn't any surprise to me that the PS3 copy of AC is 25% more expensive than the 360 variant. Yes, we're talking $3 here, but this is a world where Steam Sales are a big thing! I deserve my $3, damnit! =D
 
Well if you have a PS4 you might want to hold off on buying the Ps3 version as they are gonna be releasing a "remaster" of the previous Arkham Games for the PS4.
 
Meh, that would mean paying $60 a few months down the road for a thing I could get for $10 at the same time.

I've sorta had my fill of remastered games, anyway. The SotC/ICO HD remake was nice, but at the same time the port to a faster processing system made SotC play... off. If we're talking about games I've never played, like the Sands of Time PoP trilogy, I'm quite happy that I played their HD remakes, but if it was a PS3 game I played and still own, I'd have no cause to get it "remastered" for the PS4. The only reasons I have TLU Remastered is because it came with my PS4. I still REALLY don't like that it's 100% digital and that I don't own a disc copy of it. I'd much rather own a game than "be allowed" to play it...
 
I prefer consoles because it's just how I've played all my life.
Plus I don't have a PC or a laptop good enough to run Fallout 1 (That should be changing soon through).
I really wish people wouldn't give a shit about whether you play console or PC, it's not the tech you own that counts. You could have all the latest hardware, have the best Mods and best framerate, but you shit at playing a game, none of that will matter.
(Also, I find Console cheaper, I don't have to update it every couple of years because I can't play a new game and if I want to play a PS1 game, I can just put the disc in a PS1,2 or 3 without having to install some software that may or may not work).

But onto the discussion at hand, I got a PS4 over the XONE. The reveals won me other from that. I couldn't trust Microsoft to pull a move like that again. Plus, this is the eighth generation, why the hell do I need batteries for my XONE controller? Why not just let people charge it up as the default option?
 
Really. I played Fallout 1 on a 200MHz Pentium 1 with 32MB of RAM.
Unless you play Fallout 1 on a virtual machine running Windows XP running a virtual machine running DOS and Windows 98 I can't believe that there are functional laptops that can't run Fallout 1.
Although, to be fair I think the 386 laptop we used to have probably would still work.
 
Consoles are just less powerful, artificially restricted + generally inferior PCs. Cheaper in the short term, crippling in the long term.

That was my impression, but some do seem to have custom GPUs that can make up for [some of] it.

*I really wouldn't know. The only console I've ever played a game on was the original Nintendo at a friend's house. I think it was actually Super Mario that I played.
 
Well some can, it depends on the initial investment into the PC, and whether you bother to maintain it well (read: do the same as dusting your console and not getting it clogged up with shit).

At the end of the day I wouldn't use a PC for entertaining guests, though, so they're not ENTIRELY useless. But they have exclusive games so they are evil. Tbh I'm just waiting till some small, off the grid company starts manufacturing PS2 clones through a legal loophole.

That would be Playstation Now in a couple of years. That way you don't need a PS 1,2,3 or 4. You could do with a Sony Bravia TV or other devices that allow you to install the Playstation Now App and then you can either rent the games or pay a monthly fee(all you can play). You will also be needing a controller which can be bought for 50 bucks or so. Online game-streaming services are the future in my opinion.
 
So long as Sony don't start erasing the 'bad' games from the register and keep all the old Japanese horror games like Project Zero on there, I'm happy w that
