Quote:Remember the Xbox One is down to $399 now too.  Good luck and enjoy your new console.

 

I have both systems, and IMO the PS4 gives you more for your money.

 

The PS4 controllers are rechargeable.  The Xbox One controllers still require you to buy a separate battery pack or else you have to use AA batteries.

 

The PS4 controller allows you to plug in any kind of headphones.  The Xbox requires headsets made specifically for that system.

 

PS+ is cheaper than Xbox live.

 

PS4 has slightly better internal hardware.

 

The only thing Xbox has on the PS4 is the HDMI pass-through.  It allows you to use voice commands to watch tv, but doing all of that requires Kinect, which does not come with the $399 version.  You would have to buy the $499 version to enjoy any of those features.  And btw, the voice commands often don't work correctly.  It can get quite annoying to say, "Xbox watch ESPN" and then it turns to PBS.
