No, I'm still buying a PS4 and already have a Wii U.

PC owners just don't get consoles. They don't understand. I don't care about those PC games. I don't play hundreds upon hundreds of no-mark games I've never heard of. I buy consoles to play IPs I like, often exclusives. I bought a PS3 for Gran Turismo and WipEout, I bought a Wii U for NSMBU and Zelda U, I'll buy a PS4 for the inevitable GT7 and Uncharted 4.

It's not about the volume of games. It's about games you actually like. I can say with absolutely no BS that I'd rather play Uncharted 4 or Zelda U than ALL of those PC games combined. Honestly. I know some PC folk will think that mental, but...



As a PC and Wii U owner, I can safely say, it is you that does not get it. How can you even sit here and look down on anyone when you are nothing more than a name player? it doesnt matter how great a game is, if you have never heard of it, or it isnt popular, it doesnt count? You dont have to be a PC gamer to see that as mental. You are saying your enjoyment of games is based on recognition. Not how good the game is.

 


I'm not looking down on anyone and I don't only play 'names'. But those are the games that make me want the consoles, for example. I bought a 3DS for Pokemon X/Y.

That's not to say I don't play smaller IPs once I've got the consoles. In the past couple of years I've bought ZombiU, Journey, Enslaved, Katamari Forever... those are just off the top of my head. But the thing which makes people pull the trigger and buy a console is often one or two IPs that they want. People don't buy consoles just for the sake of it. This is why bundles sell.

I've played lots of smaller PC games too, such as World Of Goo. But this argument about PCs having loads of exclusives - my point is, if there are even a handful of IPs you want on a console, you'll buy one, no matter how many games are available on PC.
