Nah, just doesn't have the type of games I'm interested in - at least as far as exclusives.

Not sure if I count but I do consider myself first and foremost a Nintendo fan.

For the last gen (Gen 7 Wii/PS3/360) I bought the Wii at launch and just picked up a PS3 this year. I was very happy with this setup. It took most of the generation for the libraries of the 360/PS3 to become good enough (for my tastes) to warrant a purchase. I weighed both options based on price, games and bundled features and went with the PS3 as it had almost all of the same games I was interested in on the Xbox plus a few extra (I want to say it was like 80 on the 360 and around 100 on the PS3 and 75 or so of those overlapped) plus it came with 1 year PS+ and a larger hard drive so I went with it over the 360.

For this gen I bought a Wii U and am quite happy with that purchase, towards the end of the generation (probably slightly after I purchase the Wii U's successor) I will weigh both the XBoxOne and PS4 and decide which has the better games that I want to play and the most of them and which is better in price and features (at that time) and I'll probably pick one up.

But then again I think I am happy with Nintendo consoles because 1) I also have nintendo handhelds to play on 2) I regularly replay older games that I love and explore new (to me) retro games and 3) While I do not keep up anything resembling a good gaming rig I still find myself playing some smaller, older PC games (or replaying games from the era when I did keep up with the then current PC games). I do all this with a full time (time demanding) job, a house and family responsibilities so I am lucky to buy 3-4 new full priced games each year (although through various other channels seem to always be adding to my 300+ backlog of games to play)

You should include all the Tales games, MGS4/HD collection (or conversely the Legacy collection), Ni no Kuni, Journey, and Ratchet and Clank series. These all deserve mentions.


Oh yea, MGS4 is amazing.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

I'm primarily a Nintendo fan, though I bought an Xbox when it had enough games I wanted, and recently I've been toying with the idea of getting a PS3 when it gets cheap enough. I already enjoyed the multiplats I was interested in through the 360, but there are a handful of PS3 games I've had my eye on. PSN games like Flower and Journey, and to be honest I just really really want Shadow of the Colossus/Ico HD Collection more than anything. XD

Interesting choices, cool to see WiiU owners happy about it too.

Datura is a crazy PSN game that is also interesting. And Unfihished Swan, but I fell like vomiting every time I play it, it makes me dizzy.

only Valkyria chronicles, GT5 and the last of us interest me
and GT5 was a bit of a let down soo.....no not interested in
ill keep playing GT3 on my PS2

I still play GT3 on my PS2 too



Thought about it a couple years back, but held off when I found out Nintendo would be announcing their new console at the following E3, and I knew M$ and Sony wouldn't be too far behind, so I decided to stick with my current consoles (Wii and 360, mainly 360). Most of the games I enjoy are multiplatform anyway, and I don't care much for Sony's exclusives, so there was no point in me dropping another $250-$300 on another console that I'd probably only end up getting a handful of games for.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

I'm only interested in a few exclusive games, that's why I'm in no rush to buy one. I will get one eventually when I find it dirt cheap (I'm talking less than $100 with 2 or 3 games).
