I only have enough money this holiday season to get one or the other and my graphics cards are getting a bit long in the tooth (i'm curently rocking two 5750's). In certain games on max settings (Crysis 2, Metro 2033, The Witcher 2) I'm getting some frame rate drops where I have to lower the settings to high. I'm thinking of getting a $300-500 dollar Nvidia card like the 770 or something along those lines. My other option is to pick up a PS4. The games I'm most looking forward too are The Division and Destiny and if I were to pick up a PS4 it would be mostly to play with local friends (they can't afford a good gaming rig). One of my favorite genres is JRPG and as a PC and nintendo gamer that sometimes can be lacking, so that's another driving force as to why I may want to get a PS4.
So I ask the community what would be the better investment for me and maybe a little reason as to why I should pick one or the other.

It depends on the rest of your build.
A 770 will dick on the PS4 for sure IF you don't get a bottle neck and have enough memory to support modern games. My guess is that you will have that problem as you have a ~4 year old build right? Also don't get a 770 - get the R280 as it is the same power, but much cheaper and mostly, all next gen games will be optimised for ATI so it will be good to stay with them.
