Console Recommendation

  • PlayStation 4: The main reason I choose the PS4 over the Xbox One was the PS4's “Share Play” feature which allows owners to play games they own with their friends who may not own the game. The PS4 has superior controllers in my opinion, which don't require batteries and also include motion control features

Game Recommendations

  • Super Smash Bros (Wii U): The classic brawler is still incredibly fun and in the new Wii U version includes over 50 stages and over 40 playable characters. Also included is a new 8-player mode so even more friends can join the fray, and by far the best part of the newest Smash Bros game… No random tripping!
  • WWE 2K15 (Xbox One/PS4): The WWE game is really geared toward actual WWE fans. But the next gen version includes drastically improved graphics, entirely new game-play mechanics, and an in-depth My Career mode that gives the game more re-playability value than its predecessors.
  • Assassin's Creed Unity (Xbox One/PS4): Simply put, all the fun of Assassin's Creed now with friends!
  • Just Dance 2015 (MultiPlatform): Become the life of the party or just goof around with some close friends. Just Dance is a great party game and the 2015 edition has a great track-list that will have a song that even the must fun-hating person can enjoy!

Accessory Recommendations

  • PlayStation Gold Wireless Headset ($80-$100): This reasonably priced headset offers great sound and a hidden microphone that clearly picks up your voice so you can enjoy online gaming with your friends.
  • Nyko PS4 Charge Base ($25): Keeping with the wireless trend for accessories, the charge base allows you to charge your PS4 controllers without having to use a wire and charge them on your console.
