For me, the PS4 has a better DVR. 12 (or 14, I forget) minutes at the press of a button vs. 40 seconds or the last 3 and 5 minutes after fumbling though menus. But a major draw to Xbox One is built in Skype. Parties are okay, but I'm in some Skype chat groups and I can have calls with friends. Only downside is you can't start calls on the Xbox if there are more than 4 people in the group already, otherwise, someone on a PC needs to start the call. Unfortunately/fortunately for me, I started on PS4, got the sweet original iron banner cape, tumbler sparrow and the beta player emblem, then all my PS4 friends quit playing, and I can't bring those things to Xbox One. But I have tons of friends on Xbox who play regularly, and I haven't touched my PS4 in a month or two. I would say go for Xbox One. But go where ever you have more friends to play with.
