Default PS4 or Xbox One?

For all you techies out there...

I've always been a Playstation owner...but the PS4 looks like a PS3 in most cases...I'm sure better graphics and such (as expected).

Xbox One you can use it as a central unit and display multiple sources on one screen - from what I'm told.

Comparing these types of devices always reminds me of the Chevy vs. Ford age old intense arguments.

Buy whichever one you think offers the specifics you are looking for. Or do like my grandsons do with each gaming console upgrade, buy one of each.

That's always an option...but then you end up liking one over the other and then you have a $400 or $500 paperweight.

And nowadays, Ford and Chevy are fighting Dodge.

Wish that that was the result. But with my grandsons, they keep using both units and I end up buying games for both gaming rigs.

Dodge...who?

Not to detract from the original thread, but...

I grew up with an Atari then the original Nintendo, Sega and those round gauges in the cockpit - nowadays kids are growing up with iPhones, iPads and glass cockpits.

I just haven't had the time to sit down and compare the new systems...and I know there are some reserve guys or just pilots that sit at the crash pad playing video games...thought I'd see if there were some opinions out there.
