this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by full sail university what's up everyone it feels good to be back and you asked the Buffalo chair i am your host jon rettinger and this is the show where you could ask me any question you've got from the wide world of technology or even sometimes outside of it if you want to ask a personal question and want to something about gaming cell phones tablets this is the place you do it and how do you ask those questions you say well every tuesday on TechnoBuffalo duck calling put up an article saying ask your questions if you do that in the comments otherwise you can tweet them to me anytime at john for lakers or at TechnoBuffalo just use the hashtag ask the be up this week we're talking about iphone 6 next-gen gaming consoles where I guess current gen gaming consoles and some personal questions this is asked to Buffalo let's start asking the Buffalo the first question comes from twitter user at philips kid asks at john for lakers what would you like to see in the iphone 6 that's a good question i really like to see one thing the iphone 6 bigger please make it bigger rumors have been circulating about two different iphone sizes allegedly Apple is going to drop the plastic iPhone 5c in favor of a 4.5 to 4.7 inch iphone and a giant 5.5 inch iphone I wouldn't think Apple is going to jump that big to the 5.5 inches but I do think a 4.5 24.7 makes perfect sense I think to say this like a broken record every year with iOS but in addition to a bigger phone size also like to see some sort of quick notifications fast rates to my information windows phone has the awesome live tiles android of course as really customizable widgets make the phone your own experience Apple really doesn't have a kinda have to open the app at the old Notification Center sort of see that quick information i love way to do that somehow from the home screen so those are my real wish losses for the iphone 6 a new design would be nice to think the iphone 5 iphone 5s designs get a little bit on the sales side improve camera probably improve speed but bigger and improved design in a new OS would make me quite happy fellow this one's kind of a company question it comes from user at 09 s royal at john for lakers where do you see it technobuffalo and follow up to 10 years time how big a part of it do you plan to be that's really interesting question never know what the future holds and certainly I hope the techno Buffaloes here and five titanium they've been working really hard over the past four to five years sort of built a foundation for the future there aren't that many independent tech sites out there anymore moster owned by larger companies so it's been fun to sort of build an independent brand I hope to still be involved you know right now I'm 33 and ten years and will be 43 I hope that's still young enough to be relevant in the industry but i hope the TechnoBuffalo you know continues to grow I've really served drive to grow TechnoBuffalo to be the voice of the consumer you know we don't have giant millions and millions of dollars like a CBS style budget you know we just have what we work with we work try and bring you the best content we have and everything else is secondary where the voice of the consumer we're just like you love technology and we have opportunity to write and talk about it and put it on video so we continue to grow that and I really hope my goal is that people think of technology or want to know about our product a first place a thing to go is technobuffalo we've been growing pretty significantly over the past few years when it comes to traffic or still a new company so we've got a lot of them mark the chair and really hope where the next five to ten years we can get that mind share so if we that helped answer question let's go from personal to gaming user at c kv underscore 1996 asks what next-gen gaming console do you own and what would you say is good about it so at the office we have both the xbox and the PS so of course we have the Nintendo Wii U as well at home i currently have a wii u and a playstation 4 i've always had xbox console we've always gamed on the xbox consoles always prefer the controller this generation kind of threw me for a loop i really really like the controller on the playstation 4 and in all honesty with a son at home i haven't that much time to play that many games like did played it really really awesome and I'm kind of embarrassed to admit it but the lego marvel game was absolutely awesome and that was really only game i played totally through so i'm actually using my ps4 almost exclusively for streaming whether i'm watching Netflix or Amazon or Hulu or vuda which is a great way to watch movies I found its really really quick the contents are queues up right away there's no really big long buffer time it starts playing quality improves as it goes along but it's really really fast i just use the Apple TV only for that certainly the ps4 is way better specs has been a more seamless experience but I found them where I use it the more I'm hating the battery life on the controller you know I watched two episodes house of cards and something my fully charge controller is almost all the way down to one bar or less so I'm considering picking up an xbox one it sounds kind of silly to say to use an xbox one for streaming so I don't worry about a controller I hate to say Xbox on I can wave my hand to launch netflix I don't like that I gotta have connects or there and staring at me and always on still creeps me out but that was sort of a long answer how i'm using my consoles the wii u I still I still relieve a soft spot for Nintendo i love the mario game looking forward trying donkey kong i can't wait to mario kart comes out next gen zelda I've ever had a much time to play that we you would serve gathering dust over the past few months over that helped answer your question let me take a quick break
