I was thinking about it, not prepared to do Ultimate team purely because I'm against spending extra cash for a game you've already bought, and it would take much longer to get the points from scratch.

You don't have to play UT, nor do you have to spend money, just build your team up through play like I have. (I'm as tight as they come, I didn't get my game from the shop so to speak...)

My record on UT now is 81-16-49 (55.48% win rate)
 
Anyone see E3? PS4 looks good and the features are better than Xbox. PS4 is:

- $100 cheaper (RRP £349)
- No online checks (unlike Xbox)
- No restrictions on lending games or playing pre-owned games (unlike Xbox)
- Netflix is free (unlike Xbox)

Also, Apple announced their latest version of iOS 7 - prior to this, I was in two minds over getting an Android phone (currently have an iPhone) but after seeing the new iOS
, I'm definitely staying with Apple! Looks very cool.
 
I think I am still going to get the 360, its all down to better games on the 360 and the controller is the better of the two by far! However will need to get my hands on that new PS4 controller just to make sure it hasn't drastically improved (it must have improved surely!)
But I just have to play this game, and as its exclusive to XBONE that that!

Prior to the launches, I was tempted to go with Xbox One but I'm pleasantly surprised with Playstation as they seem to be more gamer oriented - the games looks pretty good - Watch Dogs looks immense!
 
The better Exclusives are all on Xbox for me though..
Will admit I was 100% sure a few weeks ago that it would be Xbox all the way..
Now..Not so much!
 
PS4 for me. Right now XBOX has exclusives but those aren't really up my alley really and it all evens out. Still can't wap my head around how MGS is now for both consoles, it is and always has been PS! The new MGS looked sweet, watchdogs looked ****ing sick.

Yeah I was surprised when I saw MGS on Xbox!

I don't normally buy games other than Fifa, Call of Duty or GTA. Watchdogs and another game called The Division look top!

Also had a look on Amazon - was tempted to pre-order a PS4 ;-)

A controller costs £89!! And games are now £55!!

New technology will always cost, amazed that PS4 got it right this time. Also like the used games can be bought and sold. For exaple I have about 4 games just wasting away right now but that cuts "the Last of us" cost in half when I sell them and go buy that game.

I will probably look to buy after a year. Let the kinks and bugs get sptted and then buy a better version of it.

yeah I know what you mean - it's a shame I'm one of those idiots that just can't wait for new tech so I'm gonna be getting it straight away!

Great job by PS - Xbox have really messed up and I think they will lose a lot of people. Having to be signed in all the time in order to play games? Ridiculous!

Also, the Share button on the PS controller - now the world can share my goalazzo goals from Fifa!

Ya, if it is FIFA, Resident Evil, Metal Gear I buy it straight away no questions asked. Sometimes go with the ones that are can't miss like "last of us" but gotta say, that watchdogs looked unreal. Using all the environment and your phone as the weapon to get you out of spots was crazy!

I'll kick your ass at Fifa in a couple of years time then <ok>

Also didn't microsoft focus on Xbox being very "tv" like which killed them as well? The division looked good as well but feel like watchdogs was better. Now is where Youtube starts popping up with tons of game footage of everything.
 
Yep - Watchdogs is the one for me!

Also, did you guys see the new iOS 7? (Assuming your Apple fan boys ...)

I have windows phone right now, but have seriously been considering trading it in ( don't want to get screwed though). The format is nice, it is clean, stylish, but it hasnothing compatible with anything my friends, coaches, collegues, etc has. If it isn't microsoft it basically doesn't work on the phon.

The new S4 looks sick but I know Iphone 5 is a bit cheaper now. Will have to have a look and see.

I was tempted to switch to S4 from Iphone 4S but I left it as a result of the new iOS and now I'm waiting for the new iPhone. If you are thinking about switching to Apple, I recommend you don't get iPhone 5 as the new will come out around September - coincides with the release of the new iOS.
