The Xbox One also separates it.ElkinFencer10 wrote:Yeah, the PS4 has game install data and game save data separate. The Wii U does the same thing.

Is it accurate that your game data (DLC, saves) is housed separate from the actual game? So when you delete a title from your library, the other stuff remains in the event you re-install? Or is this something that only works if you back-up to the cloud?
I ask because I had to reinstall NBA 2k15 (i was working through old titles to make sure i had the most recent patches) and the support told me after 15-20 minutes, the newly installed game would sync with my saved stuff. I did have to still re-install the patches, which is tough for any offline mode re-installing years from now.
I've become increasingly bored with my Xbox One. It's not necessarily because the system or the games on it are bad, but I think more because my tastes in games are changing. For quite a few years (mostly through high school and afterwards) I was primarily interested in online first person shooters. Halo and Gears of War, mostly. But in the past few years I've found myself less and less interested in playing these games. After looking at lists of all of the games, and looking at only exclusives, the PS4 is far more interesting to me right now. There actually isn't a single Xbox One exclusive game coming up that I can honestly say excites me, where the PS4 is getting Shenmue III, No Man's Sky, and even the MLB games have me interested. I think I'm going to attempt to trade my Xbox One for a PS4. I know I could just buy the system if I want it, but the only thing that's kept me from getting rid of my X1 so far has been Doom, and PS4 has that, too...
