I have to admit, I wasn’t aware that use of the Xbone GWG relies on the subscription. thanks for clearing that up!

You can use the GamePad while plugged in, that’s true, and the same goes for the DualShock 4. However, some games are a lot more awkward to play with the GamePad plugged in depending on which functions it uses (particularly motion controls).

You’re also right to say that a better battery can be bought separately. However, why should you or I – or anybody else – have to spend more money on a system we’ve already bought just to get a decent battery life? Similarly, as I said, Microsoft really should have provided a way to charge the Xbox One controller in the box.

Thanks for reading, and for taking the time to comment!

Hey buddy, I was reading your article, and I wanted to let you know that you slipped up a few times.. The Xbox One doesn’t allow you to “keep” its GWG anymore.. It only lets you keep xbox 360 games after the subscription expires… As for the new system.. it is on par with Sony this gen as for the use “After the subscription ends”.

As for finding a PS+ subscription for cheap.. You can find both subscriptions to services at a highly discounted price during the holidays.. you just gotta stock up when the sale is right.. and be prepared each time it comes.

I hope your article helps some people make a decision they feel they don’t ever regret! Great article!

I thought the article was generally well written and balanced. One point

One minor nitpick is that the Wii U gamepad battery life is not anywhere near the issue made out. If it runs down, plug it in while you’re playing. Or … get the bigger battery with up to 8 hours of use, from the Nintendo store.
