Blu-ray playback - a mixed bagįirst impressions of Xbox One Blu-ray playback seem positive once all of the updates are out of the way and the bespoke app is installed: the machine loaded up every disc we threw at it, and we weren't confronted by any obvious incompatibilities. However, it's clear from the outset that both Microsoft and Sony are keen on locking out homegrown (and yes, pirated) content, but in our tests, the lack of functionality and too many bugs impact the support of 'official' material. In terms of other user-generated video, it's worth pointing out that the Microsoft console plays burned DVDs but stubbornly refuses to process BD-Rs, while PlayStation 4 happily runs both.

These are functions common to the last-gen consoles, but are mysteriously absent in their successors - although Xbox One can receive "stream to" content from Windows 8 PCs.

On the face of it, besides the ability to pump live TV through Microsoft's system (a feature that currently lacks the potentially game-changing One Guide functionality found in the US), both machines feature very similar features, such as the ability to play back Blu-ray and DVD discs, along with dedicated apps covering a range of streaming video services, including those exclusive to both Sony and Microsoft.

With the arrival of next-gen console, the potential is there to bring media integration to a whole new level - indeed, that's the core proposition of Xbox One, with PS4 also featuring a rich array of movie and TV services. With the arrival of Xbox 360 and PS3, console manufacturers realised that games consoles could be so much more - they could be the media player that takes centre-stage in your living room, able to deliver movies and TV shows streamed from the internet as well as traditional disc-based entertainment.

During the test, both the eighth generation video game consoles were dropped from increasingly higher positions and were tested after each drop to see if they were still functional. To check how tough the latest consoles are and how far they can go before giving up after getting dropped from certain heights onto solid concrete, WIRED’s Battle Damage conducted a durability test (otherwise known as torture test) that pits the latest PS4 console versus the Xbox One. Sony’s home console even outshines the Xbox One performance wise, and boasts better form factor and built aesthetics, however, if put up against Microsoft’s console in a straight-up fight for survival, would the PS4 win the competition? A recent torture test suggests the answer is a straight no.
Sony and Microsoft just got done with celebrating the first anniversary of their latest eighth generation video game console, and with both of them being one year on major markets, the PS4 is leading the sales charts from all the way back.
