It's simply amazing how the PS4 has sold so much with one OK exclusive and a Bad exclusive. Guess they just wanted to play slightly better multi platforms.

People only buy consoles for what's currently available?

No, but they should.

This.......is possibly the silliest thing i have ever read. You expect people to not take into account that a console lasts years and a huge amount of games will be released for them in the future? People buy conssoles and then throw them in the trash after a few weeks?

No, but consoles lose value over time. 

The more you wait:

- Better sku you can get

- Better Firmware

- Cheaper

- Better deals on Live/Gold

 

Consoles are not investments, you don't profit from rushing towards them.

If there is no game that you want to play right now, there is only to gain by waiting.

No gain you say? What about the PS4/XOne version of games right now, on the system you are going to play on for years instead of and older PS3/X360. And get a superior version aswell. PS4 is only $399, no need to keep playing on a older system for saving $100.
