I am going to be comparing and contrasting the ps4 and the xbox.i chose this to do because it is probably one of the easy ones to do.also it is something that i can get done really fast other than like sports or shoes.the ps4 and xbox fans have been arguing about which console is better.when they are shown facts,they choose not to believe them at all.there are so many differences between the two consoles.

This article https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/xbox-one-vs-playstation-4/2/ says “Both systems can play many of the same games. Performance, though, is dependent on the console you’re using. The PS4 is the more powerful machine, albeit slightly, with the ability to display games in 1080p resolution (as opposed to the Xbox One’s upscaled 920p). The difference isn’t always drastic, but on most TVs, PS4 titles will simply look better. There are some claims of the PS4 dropping frames on some games, and while it hasn’t been reported as a widespread issue — many games run at smooth 30 or 60 frames per second without issue — it’s still worth keeping in mind.”

Then it talks about the size of both of them

“PS4 is slim, sleek, and lightweight, featuring an attractive light bar on the side and a sloping front and back. The Xbox One is a much bulkier box. It isn’t ugly by any means, and it sort of resembles one of the new-generation cable boxes, but put the two next to each other and you have to wonder why it is so much bigger, especially since it still uses a cumbersome external power supply brick. The PS4 doesn’t, yet it still manages to pack more power within a smaller build.”

A few paragraphs after that it talks about its ports and storage

“Both consoles are available with 500GB or 1TB of storage space, which is enough to house a decent collection of games and other media. Still, 1TB of storage is the bare minimum for most desktop PCs, and nearly four years into the life cycle of these consoles, space can be at a premium if you’re getting new games regularly. Luckily, both systems’ storage can easily be expanded via external hard drives and the like.”

Another article that i found https://www.tomsguide.com/us/xbox-one-vs-ps4,review-2543.html has a part where it is talks about how much games both consoles have and other features

“if you have a massive library of Xbox 360 games, however, the Xbox One might be a better buy for you. More than 300 Xbox 360 games are currently playable on Microsoft's new console, including Mass Effect, Fallout 3 and the entire Gears of War series, and Microsoft has been adding support for new 360 titles on a near-weekly basis. The Xbox One will even support games from the original 2001 Xbox soon. You can play older games on PS4, but not without paying up. A small selection of digital PS2 classics are available on Sony's new console for about $15 a pop, each scaled up to 1080p with earnable trophies and support for features such as SharePlay and Remote Play. The PS4 plays PS3 games via PlayStation Now, which allows you to stream hundreds of last-gen titles (and a few PS4 games) from the cloud for $10 a month or $100 a year. In contrast, Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass grants access to over 100 Xbox One and Xbox 360 games that you can download for $10 a month. Xbox One is also the exclusive home of EA Access, which lets you play an ever-growing library of EA games for $30 a year or $5 a month.”

And it also talks about the entertainment the consoles have to offer to the person who is using the console they have chosen

“For sheer options, Xbox One is the superior entertainment machine. The system has the uniqueability to transmit your cable box's TV signal, allowing you to quickly switch between playing a game and watching a show. The upgraded Xbox One S and PS4 Pro can both stream 4K content, but the Xbox One S (and soon, the Xbox One X) is the only current console that plays 4K Blu-rays. Other than that, both PS4 and Xbox One cover most entertainment essentials. Netflix, Hulu Plus, YouTube and Amazon Instant Video are available on both systems, as are more-niche apps such as WWE Network, Crunchyroll and NBA Game Time. Xbox One adds access to network apps like HBO Go, Fox Now, CW and Comedy Central, and you can even stream media from any DLNA-enabled device in your home. PS4 and Xbox One both offer Spotify, which lets you rock out to tunes in the background of whatever you're playing. Xbox One features a few other notable music services, such as SoundCloud, Pandora, and Microsoft's own Groove.”

In conclusion there will always be arguments about which console is better.maybe they will be forever in a console war for years.it may even last for a few years and not be settled for the next few years after that.or there will be new console that will take their places and start a new argument.And now i am finished with my compare and contrast thing.
