A few theories:

  • People are ready to move on to next-gen systems, even if many of the games are cross-gen
  • People are treating PS4 as an investment; they know the games will come


I think the latter is certainly true, i trust sony even if i don't know what games are coming.  i know they will.

just to address the top thought...
...the system itself is really what i needed and boy do i appreciate it.

  1. cross game chat
  2. automatically updating system updates
  3. automatically updating game updates
  4. play my game while the installation goes on in the backgroup
  5. play a game while it is downloading from psn
  6. suspend a game, watch some netflix, and come back to with with zero reloading time.
  7. log in with multiple psn profiles
  8. each game as a page that keeps me informed of availible DCL and which friends have played it.
  9. a library that shows me my entire library not just what is downloaded
  10. download games remotely
  11. play remotely (i have a vita even if no one else does)
  12. a psn store that doesn't lag the fuck out
  13. an OS that doesn't lag the fuck out
  14. a trophy page taht doesn't lag the fuck out and synchs in the background
  15. real names for my real friends
  16. that share button is kind of addictive
  17. watching gaming streams is also kind of addictive

I guess what i'm trying to say is the system is what is selling the system.  between automatically updating system/game updates, PlayGo game installation eleminating wait time, and the suspend mode i get HOURS of extra play time every week.  to just get what i want when i want it is worth the $400 imo.  but there are still gaming reasons to head on over to the next gen too.

  1. infamous is amazeballz
  2. ps+ has given me tons of "free" games to play
  3. knack.  ;)

best response to the OP. All very valid reasons.

Only thing I could add is that there are plenty of games to play for the system. I simply cannot understand how people keep saying they wish they had something to play on it. My PS4 is on all the time whether I'm playing, my wife is playing or my kids are playing. In fact my only concern s how ong my system will last LOL.

The exclusives are coming.
