Go for it. Anything that makes you happy.

Don't blame me or everyone else if you regret your decision once Sony brings out their exclusives to PS4.

Lmao, nobody buys Sony "exclusives."

If all the other two have to offer are better particle effects and "the cloud," I'll happily stick to my Wii U where the next-gen innovation is actually tangable and easy to see like in Splinter Cell Blacklist. The XBO and 360 need second hand periferals like Smart Glass and companion apps to even remotely and second-ratedly replicate the innovation found natively on the Wii U.

Blah blah blah.

Xbone is going to flop. Cry me a river for all I care. Bye.

Lmao, like hell it will. I'm willing to bet hard money the XBO comes out on top of the PS4 next gen. They'll suffer in the begining because of the launch and price, but Microsoft has a far more riged fanbase than Sony does and most don't pay the slightest attention to gaming news. The XBO will start increasing sales faster than the PS3 by E3 next year, and unless Sony can pull our GT7, it can't compete. Fact is by next year Titanfall will be the new COD and all Sony will have is Killzone aka nothing. No crying here.

Infamous isn't the only game with particle effects:


That's pretty impressive. I use the d-pad to play fighting games. I'm really hoping and confident that the Xbox ONE's improvements stack up! I'll be getting KI day one most likely..

 

 

As for the Op, think a little more and come to a decision yourself. You'll find little help here.

Lol. Disregard for the previous comments, talks crap, leaves. This is why I barely comment any more.

Lol anyone who thinks Xboink is going to be a success is clearly DELUSIONAL. Get on your meds. Go to your doctor. Are you undermedicating yourself again?

No. Anyone who thinks that a company who's last three consoles where complete financial failures is a sure fire bet to win based on preorder numbers that have never mattered and the internet forum hype of the smallest percent of people who actually BUY consoles is "DELUSIONAL." Children and COD-heads buy the largest percentage of consoles and that democraphic will see Titanfall vs Killzone and remember that all their live friends will have an Xbox and buy an XBO. Those people don't even know that Killzone, Uncharted, and InFAmous exist, lmao and I won't even get into how indie games don't remotely matter to anyone but hardcore gamers. It's cute though. It reminds me of the Vita hype. People who have know idea about how products sell didn't realize that the Vita was a Marketing desaster from the get go. It's the same here, though admittedly not remotely as severe.

You have to realize that the sole reason the PS4's preorders are so high and the XBO will launch porely is because of a shit PR team. That's it. It has nothing to do with the PS4 being a better product. If E3 came around this year and the XBO revealed with the policies they have now, preorders would be much more even, and if the console was $400 instead of $500, the XBO would without a doubt be ahead of the PS4 in preorders. Or do we not remember how shit the PS4 reveal was. The only reason the PS4 looks good is because it was "not as bad as the XBO." That's comepletely different now. You think the XBO being "the official console of the NFL" means nothing!? You're a joke. Microsoft was going for a competely different audience than the PS4 and the XBO's targeted audience is larger by five landslides. And their audience will buy a $500 console. They definitely didn't mind last year and they didn't preorder either.

PS4 targets the nerdy hardcore minority while the XBO targets the casual "dudebro" majority. The people who actually care about free Fifa at launch. The people who actually WANT to say "Xbox. ON." and manage their Fantasy Football leagues. You think that isn't huge!? An I haven't even mentioned the impending next 10 Halo games. Come on, dude. Go out and get some fresh air. Then come back when you realize theat 90% of the people will eventually buy ANY next gen system, doesn't even know they exist yet, and that in an of itself speak volumes about what kind of audiece that is.

Every successful Sony console had a new and expensive input device build into it. PS1-CD Player. PS2=DVD Player. PSP=Portable DVD player. You really think that people a year from now are going to buy a PS4 so they can use the Blu ray player they already bought 8 years ago or the Netflix they already have on their computer!? Or better yet, do you actually believe that Sony's prior successes are NOT due majorly to these inputs!?

You're probably one of those who genuinely believe that the Vita is failing because it has no games. No. The Vita is failing because most people bought the PSP as a portable media device and once their phone could do it better, cheaper, and smaller, they STOPPED BUYING THEM. The Vita is failing because it's targeted at the tiny hardcore gamer who doesn't care about playing console quality games "on the go" who barely even bought the FIRST PSP. They don't care. Why would anyone buy a handheld Killzone when they can buy the better in every way CONSOLE Killzone that barely sells 3 million on a console with an 80 million anyway. I'm delusional? Okay.

You're probably the one who beleives that the PS2's smash success had nothing to do with the built in DVD player that saw crazy expensive anywhere else. You probably think that Sony's exclusives actually sell well. You problably don't see the fact that every Sony console exlusive that has ever sold more than 10 million now being multiplats as being a problem. (Not 1st party IP, because those sales are abysmal in comparison barring GT) You probably don't think the fact that all those console exclusive where on the PS2, which dwarfed the competition's combined sales, is telling.

You don't think the Vita being in the same pesition that the PS4 is in now isn't telling? The DS lead in it's generation. The Wii lead in it's generation. The PSP sold a distant second. The PS3 sold a bombinging second. The 3DS launched well. The Wii U launched well. The 3DS's sale plumeted after launch. The Wii U's sales plumeted after launch. The Vita was revealed to launch a year later. The PS4 was revealed to launch a year later. The Vita was hyped to kill the 3DS. The PS4 is hyped to kill the Wii U and the XBO. The Vita was targeted soley towards hardcore gamers. The PS4 is targeted solely towards hardcore gamers. The Vita had absolutely no new multimedia draw for the first time on a completely new Sony handheld. The PS4 has absolutely no new multimedia draw for the first time on a completely new Sony home console. The PSP's software sales were dwarfed by the competition. The PS3's software sales were dwarfed by the competition. The PSP's exclusives generally sold porely. The PS3's exclusives generally sold porely. The Vita had a great hardware launch. The PS4 will have a great hardware launch.

You can probably imagine how the rest goes and will go. The only difference is that the PS4 has more competition because of the XBO. I can't even call you a fanboy. It's more of complete ignorance and blind eyes. Sony is the ONLY one of the three consoles that is in financial jeopardy and has been for 8 years! These are NUMBERS. And you actually think that a bunch of easily hyped nerds on internet forums will be able to accurately tell you otherwise just because Sony hired a better PR team than Microsoft!? This is the same audience that actually believe that PC gaming actually has a shot at overtaking console gaming we're talking about here. Come off it.

Wow.  There were lots of effort and pure emotion in this post, and this is over a video game console.

I hope whatever you do in life has this much effort and emotion.

Lol, emotions? No. Facts? Absolutely. There's nothing "drone" about irefutable facts and numbers. Try and tell me on thing in that paragraph that isn't 100% true. Can't? Of course you can't. Cute cheap shots won't make me any less correct.

And I like to read and write. Thet isn't "passion." It's being literate.
