S.T.A.G.E. on 17 October 2013

PC is not a console. Gaming is secondary in its existence.

PS4

1) It should have some decent games
2) PS+ could be a good value to new consumers
3)

PSV

1) Very powerful handheld
2) Lots of features
3) Console quality games on the go

XBO

1) Online multiplayer may still have the best offerings of the three
2) The Games of course...
3)

WiiU

1) It's all about the games
2) Least expensive console of the three
3) Most innovative next gen console of the three

3DS

1) A bigger game library compared to the PSV
2) Least expensive compared to the PSV
3)

PC

1) VERSATILITY (basically can do everything the consoles can do and more)
2) ....that's it really
3)

As for which one I'm getting?

As of right now, none of the above with the exception of the PC because of the reason I mentioned above. Plus it's the only place I can play Civ5 right now.



Generation 8 Predictions so far.....(as of 9/2013)

Console that will sell most: Nintendo Wii U

Who will sell more consoles between Microsoft/SONY: SONY

Majority of Nintendo's first party titles are way better than any of the third party titles on the WiiU both announced and released especially since some of the features of the third party games are either missing or clearly inferior to other versions. If I were to buy a WiiU right now my entire collection as of what is available would be

-New Super Mario Bros U/Super Luigi U
-The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD
-Pikmin 3
-Nintendoland

The only worth mentioning third party titles are some of the exclusive ones such as Sonic Lost World for an example. Hopefully we'll see some RPGs as well.

wait... are you getting or you have a wii u?
