Xbox and PS4 you know them and you love to hate them. Gamers thrive on anything that can be played for over 6 hours or through many days.
Are these gaming stations really worth their four hundred dollar price tags?
Video is smooth and crisp on both consoles in most games. Xbox however, seems to have a few more games with strong clear play while PS4 is still plagued by some not so great video problems. Tiny jagged lines observed in certain games. Xbox is more of a social media entertainment unit that Microsoft brought into the market intending the console to be for family, while PS4 from Sony was intended to make a significant mark on gamers. PS4 still lacks some technology to make it past it's short comings. The small jagged lines on some games may be CD related or PS4 may have a more serious issue that Sony did not correct prior to launch.
These slight flaws often make a consumer wonder if these units are truly worth the four hundred dollar price tags.
In comparison; online computer gaming is moving up towards taking away from Xbox and PS4. why? Simple, cost. More free play online sites and with nearly half the cost of a video game CD. PS4 and Xbox games consoles may have reached the end of the road in pricing. At least here in America. Gamers have long wondered how and when would cost begin to crumble. We may be seeing the first signs of Microsoft loosening it's financial grip on the market. And with the hacking of Sony has the market had enough of a shake up to lower prices?
No, prices have not fallen significantly yet. Else where around the globe prices are leaping into possibly record setting trends. Are these consoles worth the price. Not to a family struggling with Health insurance premiums. Not to the college student who is knee deep in debt to the Federal student loan program. And certainly not to the millions who make under twenty thousand a year.
