Well, I want to play both. Do not have a ps4 right now, so choice is easy.

But just putting it out there that if I did have a ps4, I would not buy Horizon on release date. Not a college kid anymore, gaming time is limited. So I would wait the week for Zelda and play that. By the time I got done playing Zelda, I would then pick up Horizon in the discount bin and play that.

Even if Zelda wasn't my favorite franchise, that scenario would make more sense to me. I can guarantee that Horizon will be like half price in a few months or sooner. (all triple games are) I can not guarantee that Zelda will be (Nintendo games never seem to discount)

So, seeing how both are seemingly 50+ hour games. To those that are going to have one sitting on their backlog while they play the other. Consider getting Zelda first and thus save money by purchasing Horizon at discount.

Wait I am confused....since you don't have a PS4 the choice is easy. But you don't have the Switch either right? So how is it easy lol.(I get what you meant but just had to mess with you lol ...)

Also just to point it out while I agree Nin games rarely go on sale....you could also save money by waiting until the Switch drops in price and then get it and Zelda and save moneythat way. Also I have a strange feeling there will be a Horizon Bundle when it comes out. More than likely a $299 bundle with the PS4s so you are still saving more money with buying Horizon and the PS4 first than you would getting the $299 Switch and the $60 Zelda because as of now we know there won't be a launch bundle for Zelda and the Swtich(sadly uggghhh).

But that is all guess work and depends on if Sony does a Horizon Bundle.

I do own a Wii U

But the comment was mainly for others. If I had all consoles, that is what I would do. I don't have time to play both, so one woudl be on backlog. Who says my backlog has to be sitting on my shelf and can't still be at the store shelf. Thus purchase the one that will not drop in value and once finish that, get the other one which is most likely cheaper at that point.
