The Battle of the Game Consoles
In 2013 Microsoft and Sony released their new game consoles, the Xbox One and the PS4 - the battle is on

The Xbox One
On November 22 Microsoft released their Xbox One the successor to the console throne. The Xbox One is the third console made by Microsoft and is set to be triumph.

The Xbox One is a whole new machine inside and out an provides gamer's with a entirely new experience allowing full HD gaming through every game. The Xbox is the more expensive console and offers and come with a lot more for your money for the price, it comes with the Kinect sensor. The Xbox One has already released a special edition to the customer who pre-ordered the Xbox. The "Day One" edition comes with a fancy controller and writing on it and a achievement. The Xbox one has a whole heap of Exclusives including Dead rising three and the mostly anticipated Forza 5, which looks stunning. The Xbox One also doesn't require discs and many games (even triple A titles) can be downloaded over the Xbox live marketplace. The Xbox is more all rounder compared to the PS4 as the Xbox lets you watch Blu-ray DVDs and Skype your friends while watching a football match. If you are family guy looking for a device that allows you too Skype watch sports and play your favorite games the Xbox One is for you.

Hardware
The Xbox One contains hardware including
 * AMD Jaguar processer
 * 8GB memory
 * 500GB Hard Drive
 * Blu-Ray Optical drive
 * Wi-Fi Built in
 * HDMI

The PS4
Sony released the PS4 just a week after the Xbox One causing a dilemma for gamer's everywhere, wait a week and get the better looking more gamer focused PS4 or buy the more expensive more all rounded Xbox One, If you waited you will of found that the PS4 might not be all its cracked up to be. The PS4 may be advertised as cheaper than the Xbox One but in reality the PS4 costs the same and provides you with a fairly basic service. The PS4 is adverted to be cheaper this is because the PS4 does not include the PlayStation move camera which is essential to many of the PS4 exclusives. also the PS4 exclusives are not released on the console release and therefore you are left waiting and playing games that you could be playing on the PS3 but for £10 more.

The PS4 also has some good points as it allows users to have twice as many friends (2000) and boasts a fully and simple to use controller for evryone. This is because PlayStation listened to player feedback and based the controller around what the user wanted (the controller is mainly made out of rubber) and did not spare any expense compared to the guys at Xbox who have gone for the fully black and cheaper looking plastic look AGAIN!!!

Hardware
The PS4 contains hardware icluding
 * AMD Jaguar processer
 * 8GB memory
 * 500GB Hard Drive

Comparison
All in all the Xbox One and the PS4 are very equal in parts and quality.

After all the coments and the big build up. It comes down to personal preference and what you will be using the console for. If it will be used for all round film, TV and game playing the Xbox One is for you but for the hardcore gamers and the amzing looking exclusives the PS4 is the better machine.
