I'm happy with it. I bought it alot earlier than its costumary for me, so the game variety is still lacking, but i will be busy once april comes and i start playing FFXIV on it.

Much like the rest of the 6 million buyers, im looking forward to the future more than anything. ^^

would you say its worth owning the console this early?


To be completely honest, i would have to say no unless you are interested in playing FFXIV. Though it will only be a matter of time before theres more games available. It does feel very green still. No PS1 and PS2 games on the shop yet, for example. The shop itself looks very vacant, especially compared to the PS3 one that is filled to the brim with weekly/monthly promotions and content.

No support for remote servers (if you want to watch stuff from your PC on TV). You have to use the PS3 or 360 for that.

Dont want to make it sound like its a bad buy though, its just very infant still. The fields are still green and waiting to be filled. I dont think its a bad buy to get one at this point though. Its very unlikely the price will drop for at least another year, so if you have the money, why not? Its like owning a bit of the future. If you like FFXIV, then you will get plenty of gaming off it to justify a purchase.

By the end of the year there should be plenty worth having though.

Yeah, right now the library isn´t the greatest but that´s the norm, being just 3.5 months old.I remember getting a PS2 at launch, quickly getting bored with the launch games and waiting till March for the first great game, which was Onimusha.Now the same repeats itself, with Infamous arriving this month.

But there´s also the PS Store to check out, don´t know if you´re into survival horror but the PS4 looks like it´ll become, home console wise, the system for this kind of game.There´s Outlast, then in April there´s Daylight, later in the year The Evil Within and Alien Isolation, early next year Soma, from the creators of Amnesia.


Yeah i know. I am already planning the purchases for the rest of the year. Evil within, Dragon age 3 and (fingers crossed) maybe Fallout 4 in the fall. I dont like the combat in the Witcher, but i might get the Witcher 3 just for those gorgeous vistas. Heck, maybe i will take the fall on Watch Dogs at some point if it proves interesting.

One more thing--I think most who end up playing the new Tomb Raider will agree that it's a different beast than Uncharted. It does a lot to make it a different feeling experience. The set pieces are similar but they're not what make the game rock.


Based on what i have played, Uncharted is alot more linear and Tomb Raider is more open ended with some areas to explore and more about survival than just constant action pieces. If i'm honest, i like Tomb raider better so far, though i have a special love for Uncharted 3. With Amy hennig gone though... im not so sure about future installments though. :x
