Every gamer I talk to is like
"Im getting a PS4 tomorrow! " "Dude I cant wait to play the xbox one!" "You getting the PS4 or xbox one?"
And so on and so on
But I feel as if im the only one that doesn't want a nex gen console?
sure they both have pretty cool features but do I really need it? I mean im already happy with current gen and theres already a massive library that I barley scratched
Once PS4 gets dust however I would consider buying it but regardless do I really jeed a ps4
Am I the only one?

I'm not getting either, though i am getting a 2DS for times when i'm out and about - when ever i'm away from my PS3 or whenever i don't feel like playing DUST. I don't care what most people think - they can go play whatever they want. Also, Pokemon is awesome.

Hope to get a PS4 with KILLZONE: Shadow Fall this Christmas... I'll miss this place.
Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

I had a ps4 pre-ordered but I cancelled it and bought a pulse headset instead. I have played too many games on the ps3 (100+ easily) and I have no interest in searching for a passkey or keycode anymore. The ps3 has gt6, dark souls 2 etc upcoming. I will get a ps4 when either dust or gt7 is released. I will also buy triad wars when it launches (Loved sleeping dogs). It will be about 1 year before the real next gen games get released i.e. games made exclusively for next gen that push the ps4 or xbox one to its potential and most of the bugs should be fixed by then.
I briefly had a xbox360 and cancelling my xbox live gold account was one of the most frustrating things I have ever done so I will never touch an xbox again. I love windows phone but I don't even click on the xbox live app in case it renews my subscription. I only bought the ps3 in 2010 and the only console I've bought on release day was the Nintendo64. You are better off waiting till some really good games come out that are made for next generation and developers have had time to figure out what the systems are capable of. |

You my friend have asked yourself the most important question. Do you really need it? If the answer is not at this time; then I would simply just wait until it is time. Right now I am entertaining myself on GTA V and am busy with real life so I do not need one either. Eventually I will get one, just not right now.

I want a PS4, but I'm not going to get one until next year around Summertime at the earliest. I may wait it out until a "slim" version of the PS4 is released.
I also plan on buying a Wii-U for Monster Hunter and some other exclusives if funds allow. |

Definitely don't care about next gen consoles. I used to be management at Gamestop before I quit due to being treated like ****. Working in the industry (and really you don't have to be management to experience this) you soon realize that the gaming world only cares about 1 thing. Money. Hell, most of the people higher then me in the company weren't even gamers -or- casual gamers who only played madden on the weekends and didn't know sh!t about games. Just how to convince you to buy them. Disgusting. Don't get me wrong. They are a business and business goal number 1 is to generate profits. However, this is just beyond greed. They don't care about gamers. It's basically a scam. "How can we hype you into dropping $60-$150 on a product right out of the gate?" (in this case spend >$500 on a next gen console) Now that you've bought it you realize the game isn't even completed prorperly, the system has fatal errors right out of the gate, no testing has been done (that's the consumers job now, and we pay them to do it), parts of the game are purposefully held back to get you to shell out even more for extra $$$ and what we're all seeing now ,the microtransaction plague that has come down on the entire thing. Basically I am done with this sh!t. There's no point anymore. With lag and bugs and a lack of interest from devs to give a Sh!t there's no point in competitive gameplay. You can't "prove" your better because the games broken and even if it did work as intended people will abuse feedback tampering or modded equipment to defeat you effectively making "skill" irrelevant. Not to mention when the network is no longer supported then all that extra content like characters, levels, skins etc... POOF! Done. Here's a youtube video of what game developing should be like and what we've moved very far from in the name of profits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FpigqfcvlM Regardless of what you think about Egoraptor he makes some great points about what gaming has become. As far as the whole situation, I just don't give a sh!t. I would be frustrated but with gaming moving more to digital it is becoming increasingly easier to pirate games. Honestly, that's what it's worth. You can't bother making a game right? I can't bother to pay you to play it. Believe whatever you want about that and QQ more about intellectual property rights. Morals and ethics aren't considered in the creation or distribution of these games, expect the same attitude from me in obtaining said product. The reason it's like this is because no matter how hard they screw you (I know all of you have experienced this somehow, someway) people keep shelling out. No matter how expensive the game becomes, people keep shelling out. Younger gamers, oblivious to this system, have parents to pay the costs, parents who know nothing of what they are buying for their kids. They have the gaming world in a vice grip and they are going to squeeze it for all it's worth. Before I get flamed for this I will say that this is MY OPINION and my outlook on the morality of intellectual property rights isn't on trial here. That's my 2-cents on the topic. That being said, there are still great games and developers out there (ex: Dark Souls) and I will gladly pay the $80+ to play the game because it's worth it to me. Please don't reply to my post. This is merely my opinion (cynical indeed) and I have no intention of arguing or clarifying any of it. I just wanted to throw it out there, maybe some of you will benefit. Take it as you will. TL:DR - If you're too lazy to read and comprehend ideas then your say or opinion is irrelevant to me |

I know you said not to reply but I mostly agree with you. Games made for the love of games tend to make more profit than games made purely for profit. The problem is people spend money on crap games investors see the profit being made from a particular genre and they pressure developers to produce similar products. look at all the crap movies out there because people keep paying to see superhyperman and Dwarf adventures in fantasyland.
The only thing we can do is not buy crap games and only spend money on games we like. Eventually when enough people get bored of the same old crap over and over again the companies won't make as much profit and would see the value in innovating and producing games we might like. As regards to pirating my friend pirates dvds and movies from the internet but he would also buy dvd's because he is interested in movies. Movies do not interest me I pirate no movies but I also buy no movies or goto the cinema. My friend would pirate movies but he would goto the cinema a lot more than me and he regularly buys dvd in shops/online when there is a good deal on whereas I don't buy any. Completly agree with you about dlc's. |

in this community? no im sure you aren't the only one, much less the minority... this community is NOT that of a hardcore console gamer... of which each any every one, whether getting a PS4 or fagbox soon or not, ultimately want one and will sooner rather than later move on to it.
this is the inevitable truth and an accurate peek into the life of a console gamer.
this community, however, largely comprises of PC gamers (I'll be nice) who picked this up due to its ties to EvE. the majority of the competitive gamers are long gone, many of which are building the player base on the new generation console.
the rest will follow in short order, leaving this game to randoms, semi-decent players who experience great success in such an abysmally small community, or Zatara
Common Sense and Logic are 2 things you have to forget when posting on these forums.

We'll as a lot of you, I don't think it's worth it unless dust is on it, and it is better to wait a year before getting one, just like any new product. What if there is a ground breaking bug they can't fix, what now, it's useless?
