Forums - Microsoft - Who will buy Microsoft's next console at launch?

Buying a console at launch has it's downsides.
The majority of good games don't come out until a year has passed...
Very few launch titles would be worth the purchase of a new console.

It really depends on what that console has to offer. That goes for any other console that is going to be released in the next generation. You can't really make threads like this when this gen is far from being over.



TO GOD BE THE GLORY

Depends on cost and what games are available at launch. If the price tag is in the $250 range, I would more than likely pick one up at launch.



if the price is about 300$ or less.. sure.

I love the new console smell. (then the smell of burning xbox insides afterwards)



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

if the next playstation has something ground-breakingly new, like every other playstation and the wii did, then no.

No, I like to wait. I do this with all consoles.



I will buy the xbox 720 but like my other consoles I wont buy it at launch...



If Halo 4 releases with it....hellz yeah.
