Ok, I will admit it, I am a bit of a geek when it comes to gaming. \u00a0Now, I might not be as hardcore as some people, but I still spend more time than I probably should playing my PS3. Right now my obsessions are Injustice<\/a>, The Walking Dead<\/a>, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12. But enough about me, on to the topic at hand…<\/p>\n

A couple of months back the epic battle of the ages began between the Sony Corporation and Microsoft with the official release of pre-orders for the new PS4<\/a> and Xbox One<\/a>. Which both of these left the Wii curled up in the fetal position in the corner sucking it’s thumb. It was humorous to watch the rabid fans of each unit “dis” the intelligence of the other one. For the sake of keeping the balance of the multitudes, I will not state my personal opinion on which one is better, even though I am a tried and true PlayStation fan and believe that they have the best system out there, but that’s besides the point. \u00a0I will remain completely out of the argument…for now… (well, maybe)<\/p>\n

The debate has seemed to heat up again as pre-orders continue to roll in more and more for each console. \u00a0The rest of us lonely souls, who do not want to pre-order, will have to wait for the ambiguous “holiday season” to get ours. \u00a0(Which the unofficial PS4 release date of November 13th was supposedly leaked out.) In the meantime, lets breakdown some of the major specs, besides the nifty new designs, on each of the units and then I will let you make up your mind. One of the biggest differences was the sharing capabilities – PS4 allows game sharing, Xbox One originally did not plan to. On June 19,2013, at the E3 Conference, Microsoft announced that it would be reversing its “always online” and game sharing restriction. Before this decision PlayStation released this great ad to assist those who did not understand the PS4’s stance on game sharing and to poke fun at the new Xbox:<\/p>\n
