All I have to say to that is the best policy in any console generation has ALWAYS been to wait a couple years to see how things started to pan out before committing to one platform if the option of going with more than one is not a financial option. You still get the lower hardware prices on the latest consoles, better bundle options and you also get the added benefit of a two year library, plus discounted games. But I also realize not many gamers want to hear that since the typical thing to do is buy early so as to reap the perceived benefit of gaming on the bleeding edge. If you don't have patience, then be prepared to pay in more ways than one. |
whats hard to believe? i'm married, and have a 1 yr old baby boy. he drinks milk like there's no tomorrow, cant sleep without airconditioning. plus i also have to pay for rent, electricity, water, etc etc etc. plus what ever extra cash i have left over goes to his schooling funds.
so when i say i can only afford 1 game console per generation, i mean it. the only way for me to get another console is to buy a used wii. (wiis are cheaper than x360s you know)
why wait when you can buy know? why deprive yourself of the pleaseure of gaming for years just to get it cheap? people who wait can drool while watching me play games now.
