The S4 should have been the S3 (Design Wise not spec wise.) The Skyrocket was an awesome phone, one would think that by now thou Samsung would be putting out phones with better build quality. That is my only rant. Meanwhile, in my opinions, the sense UI on the HTC One is the best version HTC has placed on there devices. It has a nice clean almost stock interface while touch wiz has seen better days. But I do dislike the cameras on both, They look bad.

[Off-topic] mtdew:
Yes as their games are more to my liking and the live service has always been decent to me.

Trust me I'm well aware but it doesn't detract from the fact that we won. The shareholders realized the potential losses and acted. Again I think Xbox has always had the better systems, but on the one the restrictions in place were insane and uncalled for.
[Off-topic] spitfire2425:
Being that I've had both systems for a few years now I have to disagree with you on the Xbox being better. I've had the 360 and the ps3 along with their predecessors and I've always thought PlayStation was always the best. (Except for the GameCube. My cube is still rockin' and I got it when I was like 6. 11 years and not a single hiccup. Cube forever!)
[Off-topic] xcrazydx:
Yeah that's a fact. The xbox has always been junk. I can't even count how many times I've been playing halo with buddies and they've burned up. I still have a ps3 from 2008 that has never had one issue.
[Off-topic] seanci:
Same here ive had both systems and I just felt that PlayStation actually made gaming consoles, Xbox has always tried to go away from that and it showed when they released Xbox one...so yes they backed out of the DRM and online polices but that gets rid of online libraries for your family, the ability to not have to swap discs and so on. Those were only capable with those policies in effect. So what are they left with...an Xbox 360 without Microsoft points and newer games with bf3 graphics and a promised 2 new games every month that you probably already own ...so once again thanks Microsoft for giving me "free" games that I already purchased.ohh and let me not forget a kinect 2.0 ....wow because people sooo used the first one .its perfect for watching television, but let's see how well it can really understand what your saying. It'll end up having voice recognition from flip phone days.
[Off-topic] samkent6:
My opinion on all of this? Buy a PC . Its the most future proof and its just a overall better gaming experience, the xbox one is for people who like social media over games and the ps4 is for those who like to brag about how powerful their console is. Honestly I get so fed up with people arguing over which is better, its all down to personal preference and at the moment people act like its WW3. Having heard about the x1 and ps4 I decided not to buy either incase I regretted my choice, so I brought a sony vaio s series instead, the latest one. So I wouldnt get abused for not buying a ps4 or x1 etc.. :P

[Off-topic] Fortune090:
Agreed. Though, it does take a bit more money to get into, but the upgrades end up being the cheaper once you get a good build established. Build I have will probably last me another 4 years unless graphics take a big jump within that time period.

[Off-topic] xcrazydx:
Yes it does take a little more startup money to build a quality system but the games are cheaper, graphics are better, online play is better, and you have so much more than just a game system.
[Off-topic] ActionMax09:
All I can say is that my Xbox Elite and my Xbox Slim have scratched and cracked 5 of my games.. :banghead:

They really need to offer free downloadable copies of the game after you register the game to your name (if you buy new of course.) That way everyone will buy new and not pre owned and xbox + shareholder + users will be happy.

Thanks. Ya I'm not sure what the issue is with my skyrocket. A few days ago I started having issues booting to recovery. I would select it from the power menu and then the phone would shut off. I would have to hard boot to recovery and it would take an extra long time. Then I started having issues powering on the phone after being off. Had to hold power for a long time for it to boot. Then yesterday I took my phone out and the screen was black and the phone was unresponsive to any button combinations. I was able to once get into download mode and promptly tried to return to stock. Odin failed after multiple attempts and the phone would not reboot still. I then attempted to Odin a custom recovery and that went fine and followed a successful boot. Then once again after a reboot the phone shut off and I can no longer get to download or anything. Boot, recovery... I needed a phone and the nexus was the best bang for the buck being mid contact.
