playing Andromeda on PS4 or XBox1?

Hi, @jasper1949

XBox 1 games are compatible with windows 10. It's easy to play XBox games in windows 10 via the XBOX app. So, if you decide to go for a new gaming computer in a couple of years, you'll still be able to play those games on your new PC.

I would go for XBOX. 🙂

PS: If you buy a new gaming PC, go for a desktop. Updating and upgrading a desktop is always possible. 😉

Hello @jasper1949 

Both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One have a huge fanbase. Only one thing can be said for certain, Mass Effect: Andromeda looks gorgeous on any of those. But in the end, it is up to you to decide.

Cheers,

Thanks for the suggestions. Since our Toshiba is getting old we could also buy a computer capable of playing the new big games as well as general purpose. I know there are a lot of very knowledgeable folks out there so what do you think of this?

It's a beast! If you have the money to spend, I would say: "Go for it!"

I think with that horsepower, you should be able to calculate a general quantum mechanics law. 😉🙂

I want to be able to play new big games with no freezes or problems for quite a few years as well as have a computer that will do all the other computer stuff, so the price may be worth it. Thanks

Since both of you got new systems recently, I though perhaps you would have some insight here as well 🙂

@jasper1949  It looks good to me. Could use some extra RAM (lately, recommendations for memory  are minimum 8GB - recommended 16GB and if the trend continues you will need soon 32GB RAM). Other than that, you can probably play about anything without problems.

Thank you @Straatford87 🙂

Hi @jasper1949

First thing 😉 - My Opinion is no more important or right than yours.🤞

I think the game Mass Effect Andromeda  will run better on your PC. You can  hit 60 fps with everything maxed and i think you'll still probably have better picture quality than PS4.

If you're interested in multiplayer, go where your friends are. If you don't have people, you aim to play the multiplayer part with then go with PC since it's free.

The PC offers you several different input options and a better performance threshold, the choice here is simple.

My own PC is very similar in specs to yours, if it is about it-> (http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/cyberpowerpc-slc8420inc-gaming-pc-intel-core-i7-2tb-hdd-nvidia-g...?) and I can tell you that ...you made a very good choice.

I've also have an aversion to playing shooters with a controller so I'll be using mouse and keyboard and I do not think I'm impartial now my friend.😃

Conclusion, whatever you choose from pc, ps4, xbox1...if you can play what game you want,  is very good.:eahigh_file:
