It feels nice and comfortable and the analog sticks are positioned well. I have to say that the XB1 controller is far superior IMO. The position of the analog sticks is very good and the grips are great. I feel you can get more precision from the XB1 controller.

Magill wrote: » Exactly, I remember reading articles and forum posts for years about how the Xbox 360 was crushing the PS3 in sales etc, it happens, people like to talk figures. Didn't really impact the consoles that much as the PS3 in the end had far superior games imo. I mean the same people complaining about PS4 "Fanboys" pointing it out are the ones not so long ago were claiming Nintendo are going to quit making consoles and develop 3rd party games because their sales were much lower than the PS4's.

They might not be selling in buck loads and have astronomical numbers, but they will have a niche market, which will just make a nice steady income with low risks. So far nintendo is the only one who can have such efficient game sales. Just look at mariokart sale figures. That game alone managed to sell 2million copies in such short time! Yeah, there are not as many consoles, but those who got those consoles buy games! Since I got wii u, my ps4 was not turned on. I got wii u a week and have already managed to play 20++ h of monster hunter alone. That is very impressive, knowing that I mainly pc gamer and don't care about first party nintendo stuff lol.

The WiiU might be doing OK but the Wii was terrible, a lot of the casual market bought it and, as it came with the Wii Sports packed in, they never bought another game. Hurt a lot of third parties apparently.

Online wise - I took a bit of break in the last few years and as such, only got back into it with Splinter Cell and Battlefield recently. The most annoying thing at the moment is the lack of titles to help me decide. I'll always swing towards Xbox but is there any reliability issues I should note? Its a lot of money to splash on something.

That system seller won't be Halo this time around though with Destiny, nor I doubt will it be any of the "exclusives" coming to the machine, state of them... Gears may eventually push me but not if it is being made by People Can Fly.... I love how my PSN friends list is slowly filling up with old 360 heads, so many friends have joined in jumping ship over the whole mess of E3 last year, some of the lads have bought Xbox Ones and then rang me to ask how the **** do I return this and get a PS4, bless... Im not saying the exclusives for Xbox wont come, they will eventually, but the bread and butter of COD and EA games dont tend to interest me....
