PS4 vs XBOX ONE (What would you buy and why? No fanboy like comments please)

Two GTX 780's is really all that matters, I have pretty high end ram, cpu, ssd, and the like, but really it's all the GPU's

Hmph, certainly an overkill for now, but future-proof/4K ready.
I bet there aren't many with specs like you. I am rocking a 7950 Vapor-X and 8350K, coupled with 16 gigs of RAM and a mixture of SSD for Win and a fast raid-0 HDD for the rest. Still in the upper echelons easily IMO, but certainly not capable of smooth 4K with highest details...
 
Then again, I am a console guy :p

Mine I am sure can't run 4K with the highest details with every game. That's why I want G-Sync :)
 
2560x1440 is great though :)
 
EDIT: I hear the PS4 can support 4K, so my guess is before its life is over, they will release 4K support, and someone will make a 4K game for it.

Whatever floats your boat mate :]
The important thing is, that we're both happy with what we are going for :]

I doubt the PS4 will ever play a 4k game. They specifically said that the 4k support is for pictures, and movies. On top of that I think the resolution gets worse as time goes on. As they are trying to push the limits of it graphically not necessarily resolution wise. For example better textures, colors, more objects on screen, and more. The PS3 had way more 1080P games in the beginning of it but now most of the games released for it are 720P.

By the way there should be a "both" option in this poll...

I don't expect a 4K BF6 or anything, but a lot of the indie games, like Resogun, could be done in 4K.
 
The life of the consoles should be around 7 years, so no clue what's going to happen over that time. What I do know with complete certainty, is the PS4 and the One will be completely different beasts by the time the next console comes out.

I regret buying any of them (I bought both, and returned the Xbox). The PS4 had an issue and I had to send it to Sony. I got it back and haven't even hooked it up yet. With school I just don't feel I have the time to game like I used to. Plus, I still have to beat 3 games on the 360 before I play Ps4 (dark souls, skyrim dlc, and witcher 2). Those 3 games will take a very long time for me to beat, esp since I only play in the summer, maybe 1 hour a day lol.

Two 780s will struggle with 4k..i have two amd 7990s that can play 4k with a 4770k i7 sabertooth z87 with 16gb ram and a Samsung 840 evo ssd corsair ax1200i noctua fans overclocked to 4.8ghz..the only bad thing about them is the coil whine..i got a NZXT H630 with added sound dampening to get rid of the whining noise!

Playstation #4. My cousin has it, and my brother's has forced his way to have it, so PS4 is for me. Also, I'm just used to Playstation #3, and I doubt Playstation #4 is different, not included different GUI, graphics, touch pad interface and more. And the really useful thing with PS4 is that its' controller comes with a 3.5mm Jack... which is able to connect to my future DT 770s... :p
 
But still, I think both consoles are fair game, just the fact the Sony has headphone compatibility right out of the box really just wins it for me. Goodbye, Astro A40s! Can't wait to get my Beyers.

You have another thing coming if you think the ps4 controller will power the DT770 even moderately okay.
