Fulfilled expectations

Design: pugnacious, clunky, but also discreet and grown. I can live with it, but a ceremonial object, it certainly is not.

Kinect: As a committed pro gamers one of my biggest concerns. So far no more than a nice gimmick - but to my surprise no less! It works, voice control is extremely funny and here and there a sensible extension used - and an automatic login when I enter the room has something. In the game itself to me so far was only the stadium function at Fifa14 on - with several people in the living room quite a fun. Otherwise Thats not much to try.

For now, the fact remains that the buying argument, so a AAA game, there is not yet - but I am now prepared to wait.

Interface: A big plus. The surface is great. Here MS uses the experiences of the Xbox360, which had swept over 7 years on a surface. So you feel as comfortable and Kenner quickly even for beginners all quite intuitive. I'm very impressed.

Controller: Again, I was skeptical. But the skeptic no more. The controller is in my opinion an absolute selling point - with a further improved ergonomics. For me the only alternative for console shooter. The new Rumble functions sporadically in the controller, such as have been incorporated into the triggers that change as Forza5 indeed the gaming experience.

Grade: difficult to make a judgment. Forza and Battlefield look great, even after NextGen, from the experience of the 360 ​​/ PS3 Launch one knows, however, that the possibilities of both consoles were still long from being exhausted. As for 1080p / 720p - for me this was a cause for concern, according to Activision and EA is the moment in the development difficulties and lack of time in 2014 should not happen again something.

Xbox Live: wants Since Sony for online games just have money, no longer counts this argument well, so you have to probably resigning.
After all, the player gets probably the best matchmaking and stable servers (even if Battlefield online anything but good running at the moment ...).

In addition, known MS gave the Action Games with gold continue. Ie: from 2014 there is a free game every month.
This makes Sony with PSplus well and is in my eyes a sensible and good action.

Conclusion: The XboxOne is certainly prepared for the future, how PS4 technically nose will have forward remains to be seen. Just how far the games offer is extended.

Titanium case, Halo, Quantum Break have enormous potential, games like Gears and must come - I'm curious. So far, at least I do not regret buying the Xbox One.

In the end, even an appeal to all Fanboys: I'm too old to me at the childishness (such as the number of FakeRezensionen here) involved. On the contrary, I am pleased with the success of the PS4. With the boom of the mobile games the end of console gaming was by some experts already summoned ...

The both Sony and MS on the first day crossed the one million mark, is great for all of us.
So I wish you all a lot of fun with the new generation of gaming.
