The Crew is due soon
project Cars also, this looks pretty good http://uk.ign.com/games/project-cars/ps4-127029

Obviously Forza and Forza Horizons are out for Xbox

DriveClub is ok, but not worth the money due to issues with servers.

Gran Turismo 7 eta no idea but prob 2016 looking good.

So the are no decent racing Sims out for the PS4 yet. Hmm, that may sway my decision.

Although not always possible mine is also Hardwired, i remember the reviews stated that Wifi wasnt great and not to use Direct Connection. Are you in Wifi ? Pain i know as not eveyone can have wired everwhere..


Lag is only a problem if you feel it. I tried all methods to connect (wired, Wi-Fi, direct connection). I could feel it instantly (I'm pretty sensitive to this kind of thing). Too much (for me) to use with a racing game, let alone a FPS.


Wired LAN was certainly the quickest, but it still had lag (flipping between the console and PSTV made that quite clear). But who has a wired LAN in the house, not many I suspect?...... it's a flaw in the expectation as part of the product delivered to the customer.


If you don't feel any lag then that's a personal thing. I can and I'm not the only one if you look around the internet for the reviews.


This isn't even taking into account the gfx downgrade to 720p, which looks quite poor after seeing a 1080p native resolution.


The PSTV is an awesome idea, poorly implemented imo, which is a shame.

Downloaded the beta for The Crew (Xbox One) gave it a quick blast......very meh at the moment seems no different to every other open world racer and Ubisoft aren't exactly the darlings of the gaming world at the moment.

What's the user interface like with the Xbox one when you turn it on?

I always consider the Xbox the choice for children and the play station the choice for us older chaps that should no better.

The 360's interface is awful from what I've seen, very much aimed at the younger generation. Not exactly spent much time on it but I've seen the kids playing it and when they turn it on there all got their little characters in a Nintendo stylee.

Same as their Windows phones and Windows 8.

Easy to use although i do use the voice commands more often than not.

The Avatars on the 360 were to take part in the various multiplayer sports games (very much like Wii sports).

Will having a good search online when my little boy goes to bed. Definitely want Forza, so that kind of limits me to the Xbox. Now if I could get a deal for £300 with Forza and Cod, that would be perfect.

May have to pay a trip to game for midnight. Just have a feeling it will be a mad rush when I get there!

Forza 5 definitely seems to be the best racing next gen sim at the moment by the reviews. Drive club on the PS4 doesn't even come close.

Think it will definitely be the Xbox One for me!

Are you sure you don't mean Forza Horizon 2? That's the latest edition to the Forza series.

There is a deal for XBONE plus latest COD for £269.99 at 24/7 Electronics. Good luck getting on their site though as the HUKD members seem to have flooded the site in the mad rush to order one.

No Forza 5 in more of a simulation game than Forza Horizon. Just popped to game and turn right around and came home. There must have been over 200 people outside in the car park! Sod that. I'll wait to see what other deals are out there over the weekend.

If I don't get one for under £300 I'll wait until the new year.

I'll have a look online tomorrow too.

Anyone else noticed there seem to be better deals out now on the game website than there were over last weekend and black Friday?

I have changed my order 3 times now because of this.

My first order was Xbox One, Forza 5 and Halo for £347, now I have changed this The console, Fifa, Cod and Forza + 1 extra controller for £349!
