Anyone looking forward to E3?
I'm hoping that this show will give me a compelling reason to buy into the new generation of consoles. I have to say that I've found the games available for them exclusively thus far rather underwhelming. Whilst one might expect limited support in the first 6 months or even a year into their life cycle, we're now into a year and a half!
What games are you most looking forward to?
Hitman 6 for me!

Ps4 for me mate I'm not a massive console fan but I am a gamer and at 44 I've had them all.
The xbone sits dusty in my house, I always buy games for the ps4 due to xbone sometimes has bad reviews struggle with frame rates and stuff..but before the xbone fanboys get into this thread, my view is buy whichever unit your mates have and enjoy it, overall both are very good, but I feel the Ps4 has the edge in power and support.
My preferred driving game is gran turismo so ps4 again, final fantasy up until the last one was PS3 or ps4 only.
As for E3 I'm looking forward to GT7 the new final fantasy, the new metal gear solid. And I'd actually like a new splinter cell....
The VR headsets look cool especially in EVE online... My next purchase will be a ps4 slim..when it arrives

Speaking as an Xbox 360 owner I think there is little doubt that the PS4 has the better hardware in some respects than the Xbox one, but whether these differences will actually translate into better games, well, only time will tell. Initial indications suggest the PS4 is happier running games in full HD at 60fps. I reckon much of the decision will boil down to which has the exclusives that you really like and, as you say, which one your mates have now that on-line gaming is so accessible.
Loving the Shadow of the Beast remake on the PS4 ....Retro geek heaven!
Rumor has it that the new splinter cell has been sent back to the drawing boards for a new gen only release! Love that series of game.
Inside (from the makers of Limbo) looks great! Will be interested to see any news on the usual suspects: latest Halo, Gears of War ...... finding it quite hard to get excited by call of Duty these days
Star Wards Battlefront looks promising!

E3, that brings back a lot of good memories as a kid. Haven't owned a console in years, had an Xbox 360 for a short while but soon got bored. Would have to be something special to buy into it again.

Hi there
Personally I'm looking forward on this:
Fallout 4
Last Guardian PS4(this game has been postponed several times,but hopefully will be completed,played few games from Team ICO like ICO,Shadow of Colossus)
Quantic Dreams project
Gran Turismo 7 or Gran Turismo Sports
Oculus Rift I would hope thy will finally says when will be released(I've tested Oculus Rift DK2 and really I like it,but for long period of time its not the best)
Finally I'm looking forward to AMD Fury series as this GPU will be first with HBM memory
There few more thing on what I'm looking,but those above are my favorites on which I'm looking mostly
Thanks,Jura

I've just read that XBONE is going to be made backwards compatible with 360 games as they have found a way to do it. Now they have my attention however I want to see it working first.

Looking forward to Fallout 4.
Star Wars Battlefront looks great (and more than just a BF4 reskin)
There are a few mentions of a Transformers game based in the G1 world which might be good if it actually see the light of day.
I don't have a console but am waiting for the Steam Link to come out and some reviews before buying.

Sony have announced some nice sequels but Microsoft seem to (finally) be getting their act together. The new controller, backwards compatibility (a year late, I've given away all my 360 games now..), partnership with Oculus, Windows 10 streaming etc I think they could steal a march on Sony this coming year.

Meanwhile back on topic!
This e3 was more like it; sems like the developers are actually bring out new gen only content now, which gives us a reason to want to upgrade. I'm sorry, but slightly upscaled content from versions that are also available on the older gen stuff, really doesn't get the juces flowing!
I'm not a Star Wars geek, but Battlefront looks amazing. Pleased to see the Rainbow six series making a come back and the loving the look of For Honor.
For me, it's all about

I know there's always banter between console owners, but the Xbox seems poor compared to the ps4.
There's a video on YouTube with PC, PS4 and Xbox all playing project cars. Same scenes etc. The PC is the best, the PS4 is very close, but the Xbox looks terrible lol.
I'd never go PC anymore as you have to put up with all the crap that goes with them. PS4 looks a very good machine and the PC would have to be something very special and expensive to better it. You're still gonna get unwanted grief from a PC at some point. I was a bit of a 'PC is gaming king' fanboy years back but you always find yourself throttling back the graphics after a while. Just couldn't be arsed with messing around when consoles are so good these days. Just turn it on and play knowing the developers have tweaked it to run right.
I was watching some of the E3 stuff the other day, must admit I'd never heard of it but kept getting emails about it.
I really fancy a PS4 now!

From what I have seen of the latest batch of games there is very little difference for the most part and what difference there is appears to be down to whether the game runs in full HD at 60fps etc. It's early days though and developers are still learning about the respective hardware etc.... We won't see the best out of these consoles for a good few years I reckon and will probably only see what they can *really* do nearer the end of their life cycle!

Another factor is that the PS4/XBO are based on x86 technology - the same as PCs. This is already well known and understood technology, so the optimisation potential of a console is significantly lower than previous generations.
PCs are easier to build than ever before, the OSs are easier to install and maintain, and the major vendors (Intel, AMD, nVidia) all explicitly support major game releases; auto updating is much more of a thing.
Improvements in user interface make it perfectly possible to go from power button to game without having to touch a keyboard or mouse, going hand in hand with games that auto switch input type between gamepad and keyboard. HDMI output is basically standard, all of which leads into me having a gaming PC in the living room that makes less noise than a console, takes little more room in a custom case of my choice (for aesthetics), utterly outperforms either console, and is 100% controllable with a gamepad.
You mention turning down settings - but console devs have to do the same thing, only you don't even get the choice of deciding if you want detail or framerate. A PC bought today will never get less powerful than it already is, and if it's faster than a PS4 now, it always will be faster...

having both consoles and being a PC gamer for 30 years I'm kinda in that camp where i want the best, my XBONE hasn't been switched on and played with for 6 months, Well it was for EA access but i just don't use it, if a game comes out i buy it for the more powerful Ps4.
More powerful is a debate but i think you'll all agree over the last 12 months the XBOX has taken a hammering on various games VS PS4...
I think the backwards compatibility if done right will help a lot of Kids move away from 360s.
My neighbour is a geek and put it in perpective, after 8 or 9 years on the xbox my gamer score is about 12k his after 5 years is 140K, but last week he moved to PS4 now for him to do that, taking into mind he's on it 24/7 in my book tells me something....
both consoles are good to be honest and as i always say, Buy whichever your mates play.....
I will however be buying Forza
