This is a question I’m asked way too often. I love the idea of playing games on my PS4. My wife and I have found a lot of games on our PS4 that we haven’t tried, so we’re eager to do so. The last thing on my mind is whether or not I need to get a PS4 because I am a person who enjoys gaming so much.
This is a question that all gamers have to face. The very first question you have to ask yourself is whether or not you want to play games on the PS4. In most cases, you are not going to be able to find new games, and if you do, you will have to wait until next-gen consoles get released. For the rest of us, we can just go to games on a console that already exist.
First, I didn’t know that games on PS4 and the PS4 Pro work better than a PC. I’ve always assumed they do because it’s a lot cheaper to get a game from a store rather than downloading it to your computer. But that is not the case. They do feel a little more responsive, and I think that the PS4 Pro might even be a little faster.
I love my Xbox One and my PS3. But the PS4 Pro is actually very nice. Its a little lighter and looks really good. You can do more with the motion controls though, which makes it a little better for gamers.
I love my Xbox One – I have four games, three of them Xbox One exclusives. I love the console, but I think its a little expensive. I don’t get to play all day, and my Xbox One is just not a gaming machine. But the PS4 Pro is great for games. It runs games just like the Xbox One, but its a little cheaper, with slightly better performance on the CPU and GPU side.
Well, you could always get a PS4 if you already own an Xbox One and want to start playing.
The PS4’s backwards compatibility is something that’s important to the PS4 Pro’s sales. If you have a PS3 or Xbox 360 then you probably already have a PS4. This means that you probably already have access to the latest version of a game on your PS3 or Xbox 360. For those of us on PS4 then what you don’t have is a backwards compatible version of a game you already own.
The Xbox One currently has access to the full version of a game, but it costs $60 so it is not a reasonable option. The PS4 Pros are the exception to the rule, as they have access to the full version, but it drops below $60 for a lot of games.
For many games this is a problem, since the full version is not backwards compatible with the PS3 or 360. If you buy a game on a console that is not backwards compatible with your other systems then it is basically out of luck. The solution? The same thing that you would do if you bought a game on your PS3 or Xbox 360 first: You should buy the full version of the game.
I have to admit that I’ve missed out on many games on my PS3, but I’ve also missed out on some games on the 360. One of those games is probably Bioshock Infinite, because it was on my 360 and I was trying to play it on the PS3. Of course, I didn’t realise I had the 360 version until I was using the 360 to play it.
