Next gen, but I won't be buying a PS4 at launch.

By the time Metal Gear Solid 5 hits I should have one, though, and that would be the first "current + next gen" title that I really want, unless something else gets announced between now and then.

Possibly Need for Speed Rivals depending on how it turns out, but I think I can wait on that one.


Which bit of it? The Phantom Pain or Ground Zeros?


What do you mean?  Phantom Pain + Ground Zeros = MGS5.  They are not 2 serperate games.

I don't really know what's been going on with that game really, I haven't been following it too closely.

I thought it was in two separate parts but they were releasing it together, no?


They both make up MGS5, they will both be included in one MGS5 $60 disc.



Probably on current gen, I don't plan on buying a console for a few more years at least.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

If it's on current gen, i'm buying it on current gen. It makes no sense to buy a next gen game if you won't get a next gen console for a few years. Why pay money for something you can't use straight away? Most multiplatform games won't even take much advantage of the new hardware if they are cross gen



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Well I'm not gonna buy the game for next gen until I actually have the console.  By then the price of the game will probably be discounted too.

Wii U, if they release any that is :D



If it's a next gen multiplat that is on Wii U, I will get the Wii U version since I already have it, & the gamepad adds something to the gameplay experience previous gen consoles don't. I'll probably get a PS4 at some point, but likely not at launch. From last gen I specifically remember regretting buying more than one early next gen multiplat on 360. Gun looked the same on the regular XBox, and Madden 2005 was worse than it's previous gen counterpart.



If it makes it on Wii U, I will get it. All others will be on PC.

Can't wait to try the Xbone controller when it becomes PC compatible!!
