Both the PS4 and Xbox One have their pros and cons. Choosing between the two isn't about which is the better console, but rather which console suits your gaming preferences the most. Since your search have led you to this article, here are five reasons why buying a PS4 might be the better deal for you:

1. The PS4 Has Better Graphics, Albeit Very Slightly

Video game writer Dave Thier of Forbes indicated that the PS4 is more consistent in terms of running higher resolution displays and frame rate compared to the Xbox One. Of course, this doesn't apply to all games but it can be stated as a broad fact that the PS4 has more firepower under the hood. Apart from super high-end gaming PCs, the PS4 is the most powerful gaming system out in the wild.

2. Sony Has PlayStation VR

Sony's upcoming virtual reality goggles may not be the most important technological innovation but it sure looks cool plus it presents a refreshing take on the video gaming experience. If that's something that interests you, then the PS4 is the way to go. Some future titles have already been reported to support PlayStation VR such as "Tekken 7," read full story here, and "Dead or Alive Xtreme 3" by Tecmo-Koei.

3. The PS4 Is Catching Up On Platform Exclusives

According to Thier, the mere mention of "Bloodborne" and "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" is enough for some to jump into the PS4 bandwagon. Other upcoming titles include "Horizon Zero Dawn," "The Last Guardian," "Ratchet and Clank" and "No Man's Sky." The Xbox One has the more impressive collection of exclusives this time of year but the PS4 is groomed to make a big splash in 2016. As a rule of thumb, many elect to go with the PS4 since it can play the latest titles from Naughty Dog.

4. The PS4 Is Dominating The Global Market

If associating yourself with the winning brand is your thing, the PS4 is just for you. Sony's current-generation console has sold over 30 million units worldwide while sales of the Xbox One is heavily dependent on the North American market, per GameRant. The global appeal means video game developers are more likely to want to associate their products with the PS4 than the Xbox One.

5. You'll Have More Multiplayer Opportunities On The PS4

Technicalities and specs aside, the PS4 and Xbox One are pretty much the same home device. However, most of the world, including perhaps most of your friends, have a PS4. Naturally, you would want to go with the console that you'll have a lot more playmates.
