I thought about getting both but the PS4 would have been just collecting dust because the material on the back of controller somehow inflames the palm of my hands everytime I play. I had these rubber controller covers for it too but it could only do so much. Friday felt like a funeral for me once I made the difficult decision :(

There’s nothing like a good round of sales numbers to show which of the two leading consoles – the PS4 and Xbox One – came out on top last month. Both systems have continued to sell well, and in recent months, there’s been a bit of a back and forth between the two. This should be viewed as a good thing: healthy competition compels Sony and Microsoft to improve their respective performances.

Back in February 2015, the PS4 took the top spot on the sales chart, and went on to claim it again in March. In April, the Xbox One put an end to the PS. This marks the second time that the Xbox One pulled off an upset; it did the exact same thing last year.

Presumably, Sony wasn’t too pleased about having its streak broken – especially after claiming that the PS4 was the more powerful console – and set out to reclaim its spot. Whatever Sony did worked, because according to the latest round of sales numbers from the NPD Group, the PlayStation 4 was back at the top for the month of May.

Back of PS4 Retail Box

Specific numbers haven’t been released – as they often aren’t – but it’s safe to say the total amount of PS4s sold since its launch have blown past the 20.2 million we reported on a few months ago. Additionally, the system’s performance last month should definitely make Sony feel more confident about raising it’s own profit forecast.

In a statement provided to VentureBeat, Sony thanked its massive fanbase for propelling the PS4 to the head of the pack:

As we head into E3, we would like to thank gamers for making PS4 the top-selling console and the leader in software sales in the U.S. in May. We are truly humbled by this success and we look forward to sharing what’s next for PS4 at our E3 press conference on June 15.

It will be interesting to see how the two consoles perform this month, as E3 2015 is sure to bring even more attention to both machines. The recently revealed 1TB Xbox One could be be what the Xbox One needs to dethrone the PS4 again. That said, rumors are curiculating regarding a 1TB PS4, as well as a PS4 price cut, so the battle between the two companies could end in a stalemate.

The owners of both systems have been requesting larger hard drives for a while. If Microsoft’s going to answer, it’s in Sony’s best interest to do that same, at least if the company wants the PlayStation 4 to maintain a comfortable sales lead.
 
Media Player Coming to PS4

Hello PlayStation Nation! Every time we announce new features for PS4 here on PlayStation.Blog, I love going into the comments to answer your questions and see feedback on which features people really like and which ones people still want to see. One of those questions I have been able to count on has been, “Where is our PS4 media player?”

If you were watching our E3 press conference pre-show, you probably heard the good news – Media Player for the PS4 will be available to download from PlayStation Store this evening. A Media Player icon will appear in the PS4 content area, simply select the icon and you will be taken to the PS Store where you can begin the download.

Media Player Coming to PS4

The Media Player works with both your home server and when plugging a USB stick with media into one of the available ports on the PS4. Your home server will appear as a media option in the player automatically and finding your media is simple and quick. You may also simply enjoy music as background music on your PS4!

Of course, we know what you really want to see: look below to see supported video and audio file formats and codec details.

This should of been there on launch day.
 
They already had the MP3 access on it, would be nice if I could use the pictures as wallpaper, like the ps3 does. Also would be nice if it was compatable with android devices. I rarely use an usb anymore.
 


This seems like an interesting morpheus game. Basically, you a toddler and a god, and you can control the world and either choose to maintain it as a benevolent god or become a god of destruction. Weird, but it looks good visually.

I hate the whole interface. It just doesnt run as smooth. Graphics are slightly better on ps4. The ps4 controller feels better 2 me. The wireless headset on the xbox hook to ur controller so they arent really wireless. U need batteries for the controller and i hate that

Ps4 has better exclusive games. Only thing i give the xbox os the backwards compatibility now

PS4 don't have the exclusives this generation yet IMO, unless you counting them remasters? To me the system is being carried by multi-plats and remasters til that new Uncharted drops next year. PS4 got the better interface, but Microsoft is launching a new interface later this year that should make shit a lot smoother since they trynna rebrand themselves about not being heavily relied on Kinect.
