I would wait Xbox is eager to sell more consoles than PlayStation thus price drops, free games, bundles just think when Christmas season comes around the may practically be 50% off but that's if you're lucky to snag one of them



Around the Network

Wait for a Forza Horizon 2 or Master Chief Collection bundle.



I really wanted to wait for the sunset overdrive bundle but after the forza horizon 2 demo I couldn't wait.

 

Might be a good idea to wait so they can patch glitches and bugs.. even forza H2 has a few but it hasn't stopped me from enjoying the game.  Currently stuck between crimson dragon, Forza5, Diablo and now FH2 which is taking up some serious playtime..

they really have made it into a all in one media device thing rather than just a games console...

Also the game recording takes getting used to and the quality isn't brilliant so hopefully it will improve over time..

Destiny is a game that will arguably better post launch. Like... 10 years post launch.

Anyhow, I say wait. Maybe he'll only save $50, but maybe he can save a $100.

It is already GOTY but I don't know about 10 years but it wil be played the whole generation.

That won't happen

He needs to buy knowing Xbone will sell less than PS4.

And that is fine... you can buy and enjoy the Xbone even it selling half or less than PS4.

it depends on your conditions, do you really need it now? do you have anything important to buy beside console gaming at the moment ? do you have any backlog game that need it to finish? you should make a list of negative and the positive of buying console gaming before black Friday.

Just because you disagree or don't like the game didn't make it sarcarm.

I guess some magazines will give it GOTY award too.

he probably meant on PS4.. I don't think he has an XBO... I agree with you Destiny is probably the worst work bungie ever did even prior to halo...

it'll do good numbers with the same crowd that likes the terrible COD yearly cash cow.. And might get decent DLC... But it has nothing of a true GOTY even if milions were to vote for it.. It's not like they did anything epic or major with that game... It's pretty bland all things considered

A vast majority voted for Mario Kart 8.

Yet more people on this forum had access and likely played Destiny. That's indication of how disappointed people are with Destiny.
