Should I upgrade from a PS3 to a PS4?
 
I have a PS3 right now that I play often. I play Cod, NBA 2K, Mlb the Show, and Madden. I have heard good things about the ps4, but It is a little pricey. I would just like suggestions from fellow blowout members to see if I should upgrade to a ps4.

Thanks.

I'm waiting until Christmas to decide. Right now I'm more than happy with my 360 so don't see the need to upgrade but if a price war breaks out for the holiday, I might change my mind.

I upgraded from the 360 to the Xbox one and love it. I don't care for PS3 or PS4, so can't speak specifically on the system itself. But I'd say definitely upgrade to a next gen.

If I do upgrade I want it to be sooner then later. I just want to make sure it is worth it to upgrade.

Is there anything specific that you can point out that you look better since you went to next gen?

No. Go outside.

I've played a little with both systems and I don't see a huge difference to justify spending another $400. As someone that grew up with Atari I am still blown away by 360/PS3 games so I may not be the best person to advise you. I just didn't see a need to come out with a new system yet. Having said that, I will probably go with a One when I do upgrade though. I wasn't too keen on the PS3 that I had even though I miss not being able to play The Show.

CasperMcLovin 08-31-2014 12:53 PM

Yes it's worth it

Truemountaineer 08-31-2014 12:53 PM

I owned the ps4, I didnt like it as much as the 360, so I sold it and got a 360 again

nibrugnerotto 08-31-2014 01:04 PM

No, stay with free internet.
I am keeping my PS3:)!

Ok, thanks for your input. I don't think I am interested in the Xbox One since it's more expensive.

I don't think that will bother me to much. Although, free internet makes online gaming that much better:flex:

Dont get me wrong it is a great system if you have buddies on it if not you are going to be bored out of your mind.

CasperMcLovin 08-31-2014 01:14 PM

Well I just think the games play much better and the graphics are incredible. I also like the screenshot feature for some reason. Controller is a plus from PS3. I like having it hooked to my Facebook. Play the game sound through the headset that comes with the system. Can set up an Internet connection in the middle of a game. If you have any specific questions, PM me.

Is it because there isn't a huge selection of games?

The one without the Kinect is the same price as the Ps4, $399

The dashboard is way better, graphics are better and games are a lot more fluid. For xbox one they really did good a good job snapping party chats, tv, dashboard to game, etc.. Console runs a lot faster and quieter as well. Also did great on improving an already amazing controller.

I had both the ps4 & ps3 and didn't play the ps4 nearly as much as i do the ps3 so i sold the 4. The big down side to ps4 is you have to pay to play online unlike the ps3

Is that why you sold it?

cbooker 08-31-2014 03:23 PM

i still prefer the ps3 i have more friends that play it but having to pay to play online was a big part of it

Ok, so you like it since you play with your friends?

cbooker 08-31-2014 03:29 PM

yea none of them had the ps4

Braswell10 08-31-2014 03:35 PM

[QUOTE=cbooker;7893326]yea none of them had the ps4[/QUOTE]

Ok. What games do you usually play? I don't play a lot with my friends, only on occasions.

cbooker 08-31-2014 03:39 PM

my main game is battlefield 3 i run a clan server on there

Braswell10 08-31-2014 03:42 PM

CAS239 08-31-2014 04:29 PM

That's another reason why I upgraded. Friends.

Nearly all my friends upgraded from the 360 to the Xbox One already..We made one convert from PS3 to Xbox One as well lol.

Ok cool. Like I said I don't play with friends that much. But it does seem like playing with friends would make it a lot more fun.

Xbox One is going to be awesome in the next couple years.

I have one right now but hardly play it. I play some Titanfall and BF4. Got watchdogs and absolutely hated it.

Xbox will have better exclusives here pretty soon. The way it seems to me if you are into fighting/shooting games go with Xbox but if you are into sports games go with PS4. There is way better competition on Xbox as far as shooting games go.

What is this "outside" you speak of?

halfkif 09-01-2014 12:13 AM

I would stick with the ps3 just because of the free service.

Ok cool. The only thing I am worried about with Xbox One is its gameplay. Many people say the PS4 has better gameplay quality.

Exactly:D:D

I do like the free online services, but paying $50 a year doesn't bother me to much at this point. I might get a next gen system and keep my PS3.

Yeah if you are getting a next gen keep your old one. I play my 360 way more than my One..

Ok, that's what I will probably do.
