So, the PS4 and Xbox One are on the way. So far, the PS4 has a chance to make itself look better. Although both are trumped by the PC, because both are about 2 years out of date and not even released yet. From what I understand, the new Xbox will require micro transactions for either backward compatibility, or pre-owned games. Which... is troubling. As for the PS4, i'll wait until they actually show us the console, instead of a few gimmicks. The Wii U... so much potential, but I'm starting to think it might be a failure on par with the Dreamcast. |

The Wii was gimmicky as all hell, and the wii u isnt any better. What Nintendo does best isnt consoles, its games. as gimmicky as the wii was, wii sports was terrificly fun, and while i never played them, i heard great things abotu mario galaxy and zelda skyward sword. as long as teh wii u can get in on that action it will be alright ive not actually been payign any attention to the ps4 and xbox one. never had any xbox, and never upgraded to ps3. my ps2 is just fine, but as long as they dont collosally fuck up, the xbox 1 wount be in any trouble, they have too many popular game franchises available to them. ps4 is in a worse position, i think, since i dont know of any ps exclusive franchises that will win them any fans, but i also havent been paying a whole lot of attention lately |

I think I'm bowing out of consoles to be honest. I'll play games, but just not buy new consoles probably. |

ive gotten to the point that if i buy another console, it will proabably be an old one, like an snes. alternatively, i may buy a wii and just drop all my money on virtual console games that were originally snes or n64. basically, from my perspective, snes, n64, ps1 and ps2 probably each had more good games than xbox 360, ps3, and wii put together. but then I like RPG type games, so the recent glut of shooters is basically doing absolutely 0 for me |

Xbox 360 has some rpgs on it, so does ps3. But I agree, most older consoles have better games in my opinion. Heck I just got Final Fantasy 6 for my PSP. I need to complete it once I finish Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. |

final fantasy 6 is on my list of things id like to get. i played a rom version in college, but that computer died, and i havent felt like dealing with emulators on this one. im not sayign there arent rpgs on the newer systems, or even that there arent god games, i just feel like i have to wade through oceans of shooters to find one decent game that i want to play. i guess i should phrase that differently, sicne presumably at least some of those shooters are decent games, for people who are into that, but they aint for me. and gettign a ps3 just for a coupel ratchet and clank games, plus a mediocre final fantasy and fable and skyrim just doesnt appeal to me |

Fair enough. The PS3 has a lot of the old Final Fantasy games for sale on the network. So you could pick'em up that way. But I understand your point. I'm just pretty sure I'm done with consoles for now. At least with the newer ones. I'm not impressed with what game companies are trying to sell right now. As stupid as it sounds, if they actually implement virtual reality properly then I'd give'em a second look. XD |
