The biggest issue with PS4 right now is lack of games, or at least lack of games that I'm personally interested in. The fact that you have to pay for PSN just to play games online is also a sticking point for me.

Even if I had the $$$$ to buy a $400 new console right now, I wouldn't, because there is nothing on it, or anything that I'm aware coming to it anytime soon, that I want. I have never been into Uncharted, or Infamous, or God of War, etc., so aside from the fact that I suppose Resogun looks kind of neat, there really isn't anything for me. Now it's too bad Crimson Dragon weren't a PS4 exclusive instead of an Xbone one, because I love Panzer Dragoon, and that would be one game I'd want, but obviously that is not the case.

It would take several games I actually want to make me eventually buy a PS4 when it drops significantly in price. Meaning, for one, it'd be nice if The Last Guardian would EVER fucking come out at all. I was super pissed/sad that it never came out as a PS3 title, because I waited literally years for that game, being a big fan of Shadow of the Colossus. IF they ever bother making an Elder Scrolls VI, and don't go the WoW route with that franchise, I imagine it would be on PS4, and so that might also be a game I'd want. ESO looks interesting enough, at least the prospect of being able to go to various different lands is enticing, however, paying a monthly fee to play the fucking thing online, on TOP of paying Sony a monthly PSN fee just to play ANYTHING online, doesn't sit well with me at all. In fact I'd call that highway robbery.

I would also be very interested in seeing Silicon Studio do another game like 3D Dot Game Heroes, not another Zelda clone, but another retro-styled game with those same time of graphics. Then again, they could easily do that on Wii U, BUT if that type of game were PS4 exclusive, it'd be on my list. Same goes for anything new from Vanillaware that might be PS4 exclusive.


But outside of that, I have no plans of getting a PS4 for the next 2-3 years, at least, if ever. I'm perfectly happy with my Wii U, in all honesty, even if it were to be the case that all I wind up getting from it are some good Nintendo games and a bunch of cool indie titles.....frankly I'd be good with that.


In the specific case of ESO on the PS4, it looks like you don´t have to own PS Plus subscrition

Bethesda Softworks parent company Zenimax Media has confirmed that its upcoming MMO The Elder Scrolls Online won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription to be played on the PS4. Xbox One players, on the other hand, will have to pay for an Xbox Live Gold subscription in order to play the game.
