    I dont but only because my area doesnt have the live local stations (yet). Once they do...I'll consider it more.

    I dont remember all the details but i looked into it a few months back and was pretty impressed with whats included for the 'top tier' outside of the live stations.

    I use it for Showtime and EPIX because thats all that is offered in my area. I have friends that use it in the Chicago area and seem fine with it

    Right..

    My question is, say Nebraska is on ABC in on place and ESPN in another will I be guaranteed to get it on either the ABC or ESPN station? I know they have BTN. I'm assuming where I'm at I'll get the local Miami channels.

    Well, after my team lost to Middle Tennessee State I had no purpose then.

    For the channels I do have I can choose east or west broadcast

    My comcast is $160 a month for 75mg Internet and cable.

    Our options are super limited but I can get 80mg with Century Link for $87 plus the $55 for PlayStation.. Doesn't seem like much of a net gain of it would be a pain in the ass to switch. (I still have a year left on my Comcast agreement)

    Only picked up Uncharted 4 for now. Continuing my favorite series from my old dead PS3, I haven't had a PlayStation in quite a while so it'll take some time to dig into what's available.

    Good good, you've gotten Uncharted 4. If you haven't played it, you definitely need to picked the Last of Us.

    heard the same, will wait for it to go on sale though, $20 for 3 hours is a bit steep.
    Just bought Stikbold after seeing it on Playstation Access, my son loves dodgeball so we are having a blast with it, really wacky story mode and 4-player couch co-op is awesome too.
    Well worth the $9.99

    Last game I beat before I got the ylod on my PS3. Great game, may pick it up after I beat Uncharted but probably will be looking for something completely new.

    I'm on a fence, one side is PS4, the other, Xbox One S.

    I used to have consoles from both Sony and Microsoft.

    I like Sony but I do find the Xbox controller to be a better fit for my OJ Simpson sized hands.

    I hear Sony games look better but Xbox integrates with other devices (i.e. cable box, pc)

    Any words of wisdom/advice for choosing Sonys iteration of time suck versus Microsofts time waster?

    Ive been playing PC and my favorite was Witcher 2.

    I miss Madden and racing games. Plus with the reboot of NCAA I know I'll need to choose soon.

    Thanks !!!

    if you value games over the integration of tech, then I think its clear you want PS4. For most people it comes down to which system has the exclusive games they want, or which system their friends have if they are online gamers.
    I'm a Sony die-hard so I will always recommend that one, but I see why some people want XBone (and now the XboneS).

    If you like interactive, choose your own path games, Until Dawn is a good one.
    Infamous: Second son is another exclusive

    PS4 controller was completely revamped from the PS3. Honestly, I'd get the system that the majority of your friends have.
    yeah, it's a great feature if and when it works.

    Buy a ps4 and build a pc. Microsoft consoles struggled to stay relevant for so long that their flails of desperation have made them nothing but redundant.

    What others have said. If you have friends you would play with and they already have one or the other, get that.

    If you don't and plan to play online, I'd recommend checking out what the online community for the games you're interested in look like on here (and any other sites you frequent).

    I have both but the XB1 FIFA community is much more active and I play that far more than other games so I am going to let my brother borrow my PS4, Uncharted Collection and Uncharted 4 and it honestly won't affect me to not have it. I let my PS+ run out in December and didn't even remember that until yesterday when I went to see what the free games were this month.

    If you don't really plan to play online then I would highly recommend looking at the exclusives and strongly factoring that in

    they did it to themselves. xbox play anywhere will kill any purpose their console might have had. the pc/ps4 combo covers all exclusives including high end and practical vr.

    I built a PC a few years ago and can still play new titles on High settings.

    I don't really have friends that I play online, mostly local co-op or versus in FIFA, Madden, etc

    Having 2 young kids and a job that travels affords me little time to game but I can dream

    Hate Joel for what he did, or something else? For anyone who's a father, I don't see how anyone can hate the man for saving Ellie. If that isn't what you hated then I'll hang up and listen

    I don't really understand what it is. A Metal Gear zombie survival game? First MGS I've really gotten into was the most recent, MGS 5. Has the zombie thing been done before in this franchise?
