I thought it came from a company providing advertising banners to walmart, so was fairly reliable?
yeah, because you've used both of the new controllers right?
As AK said. The Xbox controller has always felt comfortable and accessible whereas the PS game-pad has been an awkward play. The PS controller hasn't really changed since the original Playstation release, except a few additions and doesn't look much different bar a sensor line.
Right, so they haven't changed the design for years, hmmm, I wonder why that is, maybe the majority of people don't actually have a problem with it?
its symmetrical, some people prefer to be normal.
Guess it also depends what type of games you prefer.
For me I can pick up either controller and just play, I'm engrossed by the game, not how I'm holding the controller.

LOL @ prefer to be normal. What exactly is "normal"? I'm sure it's not defined as "symmetrical".
The XB360 controller is much better than the PS controller, but that's in my opinion. It would be a pretty boring place if everyone agreed with each other. Ergonomically, it's just a nicer controller to use.
I can actually get frustrated over time with either controller, too. The XB360 one can tend to rub on the fingers depending on how you hold it, and the PS3 one just feels flimsy and light, which can lead to annoyance irrespective of how engrossed you are in the game.
But, as I say, everyone is different, so it's all good.

depends whether the games tend to use analogue and buttons, or two analogues etc.
The argument for the 360 controller is that games use the left analogue and the right buttons, so they are positioned in the same places on either side of the controller. but then some games will use both analogues and for that the ps3 has those in the same position etc.

The controller issue is the decider for me. That and the fact I don't really play my current Xbox much recently
I've never found the PS controller better than the Xbox's for any game - although not tried a 2d beat em up which it might have been better for as the d-pad was weak on the 360. However the new One d-pad is meant to be a LOT better and satisfying to use.
I just don't like the layout of the DS format and don't find it as comfortable, either.

My thumbs are in the same place on each hand, I prefer my analogue sticks to match that evolutionary design. I find the layout of the Xbox one difficult to use although I do prefer the chunkier design.

It was an opinion not an argument.
How much you're into a game depends on which controller you're using IIRC.

I'm sticking with Sony for the first few months at least I've decided. Not really fussed either way (especially controllers, really doesn't bother me).
Ryse is the only reason I'd buy an Xbox at launch. Forza 5 I'm a little skeptical about. I have an inkling that it will be a typical launch hyper.

Anyone ordered the xbox 'day one edition' with tesco? Only seems to be them and currys that have stock for pre orders now but don't know what they're like :dapprove:
would rather order with tesco out of the 2 as I can pay a £20 deposit rather than the full £429 straight up.

Ordered mine through Tesco, mate - but it helps as my good lady is a manager and I also get the extra discount. Sorted. No stock problems as far as I am aware so I'd say they are as reliable as anyone else. Plus they have as much, if not more, buying power than a lot of other stockists these days...

Ended up ordering with ASDA direct after reading this and it not mentioning Tesco...

£20 deposit and free delivery etc.. So fingers crossed it will actually turn up near the release date.
Cheers anyway mate.

I'm pretty sure that when we looked into this, it actually hasn't got all the roads mapped at all.
it just has the ability to drive between places like LA and NY, which if it was real mapped roads would take a few days, but it takes minutes in this for example.
Just read that you can use a phone app to buy ps4 games, and it will turn your ps4 on for you, download the game and then turn off again, all while you are at work if you want.
but while this is cool, there has to be some give on the prices, if they're just going to charge rrp, nobody's going to buy online and download.

The Crew looks s**t. Driveclub looks decent. Forza 5 looks like Forza 4 1080p, frankly. Which isn't a bad thing. It's just not semi rock-on worthy either.

Xbox chief marketing officer Yusuf Mehdi has confirmed the Xbox One is now in 'full production' with a last-minute CPU boost.
Speaking at the Citi Global Technology Conference, Mehdi revealed production is on track for a November launch and the console's CPU has been improved from 1.6 GHz to 1.75 GHz. As reported by GeekWire, Mehdi said the upcoming release of the Xbox One will be the biggest Microsoft has undertaken by a "wide margin" in terms of units shipped at launch.
"(The Xbox One) is really going to shine."
The news comes roughly a month after Microsoft confirmed the Xbox One's clock speed has been increased from 800 MHz to 853. A release date for the console is yet to be officially announced.
