| RCTjunkie said: So I was looking through my wallet the other day and I found that I have about $250 worth of unused gift cards for GameStop. Knowing this, and thinking about this for a long time, I decided I wanted to get a secondary console to my WiiU (I'll pay more alongside the gift cards if need be). I'm not sure which one to get, though. Pro list for each one: 360: -Excellent Controller -Solid backlog of games I want to play (Halo, Dead Rising, Gears of War) -Cheapest to get of the bunch PS3: -Even more solid backlog of games I want to play (Last of Us, Uncharted, Little Big Planet) -Cheap Price -More variety of games to play with friends (none of my friends in my hometown has Playstation products) XBOne: -Friends actively play online, so I can do online gaming -*Cue Confession Bear* I actually really like the concept of Kinect -Great balance of games and UI features that I will use PS4: -Cheapest next-gen console -Promising list of games both out now and upcoming (The Last of Us, The Order) -First amongst my friends, both hometown and in college to get it (introduce variety)
Now here are the cons: 360: -The online community isn't as strong anymore -No new games after this year pretty much PS3: -Controller isn't the most comfortable -No new games after this year pretty much XBOne: -Priciest of all the options -Not many exclusives I want PS4: -Will have to wait on a LOT of games to come out -A pricy option for not having online friends to play with
And finally, some things to keep in mind: -I am also a PC gamer with an active Steam account -I want to play online with friends -My first instinct told me PS3, but after thinking for a long while, I became undecided -I haven't talked to my friends with the consoles about their imput.
Please let me know what you think by voting and/or explaining your response. It won't be the final factor, but I trust the community as a whole for excellent gaming taste and gaguing what people should have, so I will take what everyone says into serious consideration. |
If you are not going to buy more Wii U games or pre-orders then you literally will be flushing your money down the toilet.
Sorry, but someone had to say it.
