The difference between the failure of the XB1 and the Wii U.

While it's library of games I want is currently thin, you can't deny that it is the best home console for multiplat games this generation, and that's just not going to change. Until more people jump onto the PC for multiplats, it's hard to say the PS4 is overhyped.

Currently, it is mainly hype and good PR that supports the hype. The current game list shouldn't convince anyone to buy the system, in my opinion. But looking at the future it would be sane to buy a PS4 as it gets good 3rd party support and some exclusives are definite top games (well, at least UC4).

It has a decent list of titles that are worthwhile. The new Killzone was overhyped but it didn't seem so terrible. There's also InFAMOUS, which is one of the three games I'll be buying the PS4 to play, the other two being MGSV and Bloodborne. It also has the best console versions of AC4, WD, FIFA14, and CoD:G (even if it does suck).

It's all in the eye of the beholder I guess. Barring a huge windfall, I'm not buying one until Bloodborne is out.
