Honestly I don't get why the average consumer is buying the Xbox One or PS4 right now

Different times now. First person shooters are all the rave now. I'm looking forward to the indies, tho. The demo for Octodad actually had me laughing out loud

you mean... ALL THE RAGE now....

yeah

I'm about to say fukk consoles and start playing games on my gaming pc. My pc that I bought almost a year ago is better than xbone and ps4.

I'll just use a 360 joystick to play all the single player titles I've missed.

It was a much bigger difference graphics wise with hd in 2005... Im not impressed with the graphical leap and there are no new game experiences

That is what I'm saying. Playing first person shooters, sports games by EA, and GTA in prettier graphics isn't gonna cut it anymore. Maybe in the PS3/360 gen, it did, but now

The industry needs to learn how to cut down cost for third party game development, or else more third-party companies will close down and another industry crash will happen.

You must have played next gen, because next gen FIFA game engine >>> last gen. Its not even close. Game engines will be the arms race this gen.

Also, I only play FIFA so I can't speak for other games.

This. Most of the games I've played have offered gameplay that wouldn't be possible on last gen systems. It's funny the people in here saying the leap isn't impressive are the ones who have not played the games.

I copped PS4 cuz I wanted next gen 2k14. anything else is icing on the cake. and since I still got PS3, I can take advantage of games on both consoles still.

 

[Costanza]

im very happy with my purchase of a ps4... cod looks beautiful... as does nba 2k14... i will be buying an xbox one as well before the true run of good games starts in summertime

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Meh I didn't cop that shyt for Launch titles bruh, or even first year titles. I bought it so when something piff comes out I don't have to go through the process of buying a console. None of that oo shyt that looks so good, watch it get like a 10 out of 10, and not be able to play it.

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

buy consoles with no games, brehs.

 

[Return of the Jedi]

Wii U has the best library of the next gen consoles so far. Jeez.

 

[PS5 Pro]

I spend all my money on myself because I have no wife and or kids or responsibilities other than myself. I don't slave my life away to pay for other people's lifestyle only my own.

1 Vita is modded and can play any PSP game off the memory card and can't be updated or it will lose the mod and the other Vita is just a Vita with the latest firmware. I'm the first to admit i'm dumb as hell when it comes to how I spend my money and knowing that looking at people that buy the XB1 or PS4 at this point in their life-cycles they're making about a shytty decision as I typically make in buying them. but like I said no responsibilities here so its nothing. if I had more important shyt to do or take care of no way in hell would i waste the money.

Bruh, you have a Vita.... to play PSP games on it.
Please realize how beyond retarded that is. Why not have a modded PSP

 

[Demonic Jenkins]

I'm enjoying 2k and battlefield ..and trine 2 was a surprise gem for me...my purchase is justified. Ain't no price drop coming any time soon regardless.

 

[Bomberman]

I'll cop a next gen system soon enough when games get released and I know they've worked out the bugs. I bought both first generation systems of the 360 and ps3 and both ended up having major problems after about a year. Spent way too much downtime having them getting repaired.

I also just bought a high-end gaming laptop with a 3 year warranty so I need to save again. But next gen gaming on the go >>>>>

But it ain't even all about graphics. The lack of creativity and innovation has been disappointing lately. If there's anything that's been eating up my time, it's been FFXIV, and even that's just mmo aspects redone.

people are still lining up and waiting out in the cold for these consoles filled with cross generation multi-platform titles and decent at best exclusives. the temps were in the low single digits this morning with wind chills in the negatives. wouldn't be me.
