Which system are you getting and why? Dont forget to vote!

I have both a ps3 and 360. I've always been an Xbox kid mainly because I can't stand ps3 controllers and halo is the best game ever. That being said if the psn is still going to be free ill get a ps4 since I'm moving out soon and xbl is one less expense

For me xbox one hands down. Ps4 network fails in comparison to xbox live and now Sony will charge for it.

I haven't been back in gaming world for couple years, but I am thinking of getting back in. With that said I have always been a Playstation fan, I never liked the Xbox controllers.

Did they official say that are starting to charge for psn? If so ignore my previous post because XBOX RULES

I may be forced to buy an Xbox 1. I hate consoles but all my friends play them. I can't get them to buy pc's but they will drop money on crap consoles. Over priced under performance.

I don't game much, but when I do, it's on PC.

I never liked the PS controllers, so have been moor of an Xbox fan, or at least I was, until they tried pulling all of that anti used games crap, which really pissed me off. I may eventually get an Xbone but it will not be for a while.

Microsoft 180'd on the used game stuff.

Have a 360 but playing games with it is a much lower priority for my free time now.  The 360 is mainly a netflix console now.   I may get a One depending on Price.. but it would have wow me.. I'm not sinking the cash (both RE and NRE) for something I don't use very often.

I know, but the fact that they were trying to pull that in the first place pisses me off, along with their arrogant attitude about the whole thing up to the point they did that 180 (the "we have a system for those people as well, it's called the 360")

Exactly. I have Guild Wars 2 but I ordered a Playstation for Final Fantasy and the Smackdown! games.

If what I've read regarding the requirement for microphones to always be on and that it must connect to the Internet at fixed intervals is true, I will never allow an Xbox One in my house, simply for privacy concerns.

Agreed, and with that I'm buying NEITHER.  I can play better-performing and better-looking games on the PC.  With sales on places like Steam I can get good games for around $10.  Not to mention fantastic free-to-play games like World of Tanks or epic subscription games like Eve that both blow console offerings out of the water.  

Wii U because I want a game system and not a social media device.

I love fifa .. Playstation 100%

i own both PS3 and 360 and will not be upgrading...immediately.  From my own experience, standing in line to get the newest system is a bad idea.  Remember the red rings.... I refuse to shell out however much they are going to initially sell for (PS3 was over $500 originally) for a system still with bugs... I am going to wait a few years and let them work out the kinks... my 360 will do me just fine until then

PS4.....but Ill prob wait 2-3 years to get one so they should have most of the bugs worked out by then.

Neither...I have a 360 that barely gets touched...I don't like consoles and tried forcing myself to try one...but I still can't stand the controllers - especially for shooting games.  The hardware is outdated, the resolution lower, and games are more expensive than on PC. 

 

I don't have a powerhouse computer system, and yet virtually all the games I play I can play at 2048x1536 - about 1MP higher resolution than that of HDTV.  If I wanna play on my TV, a quick hookup to the TV via HDMI and I'm set in seconds.  Computer is hooked up to the home theater, so I can take advantage of 7.2 surround sound...

 

The new generation of consoles will be too expensive for what little they offer me...lack of backwards compatibility means I'd have to keep the 360 too...  Maybe when the XBox One is available as a refurb for dirt cheap, and someone has hacked it to disable the mic/cameras (or I rip that crap out myself) then I might get one...

these. i hate consoles. let me get this straight, stand in line for hours to pay 600 dollars for some POS hardware, plus 60 for at least one game, plus who knows how much for a harddrive and all sorts of other things you need to use all the features only to get home and finish the game in 6 hours then when i buy the next game the console over heats. nah, i will pass.

 

been a PC gamer since '06, i pay 200 bucks every few years for a new video card (although soon i will have to upgrade the CPU as well) and guess what? i just bought the new tomb raider from steam on sale.. i paid 13 dollars for it. i can't remember the last time i paid full price for a game because of steams rediculous sales.

 

in short... both consoles suck, and they always will. they are adding all this "all encompassing" nonsense to entice people to keep buying because more people are catching on and moving to PC for video games.

 

/end rant

I'm going back to PC Gaming.  Final Fantasy XIV coming soon!

I always say I'm gonna wait and avoid the rush but i always end up finding the system somewhere at normal price... I'll probably get one and shift my ps3 to the bed room for Netflix, vudu, Hulu stuff...

Ps4 life

I've never owned a Sony console. I have owned nearly every Nintendo console (not the WiiU yet) and I owned a Xbox and Xbox360. If I had to choose between PS4 and XboxOne I would go with the PS4. Microsoft has let me down heavily so far. That being said I will actually be getting only a WiiU when Smash Brothers comes out. I'll stick with my PC otherwise.

I'm going back to PC Gaming.  Final Fantasy XIV coming soon!

 

nice, hopefully it doesn't suck like 13 did

Neither.  PC supremacy!

nice, hopefully it doesn't suck like 13 did

 

FF 7 is available through Steam now.  I've only played a handful of them, but it seems that X was the last decent one.  No way I'd buy a system just to continue the series.

I stick with Sony.
