Okay I see how everyone is prasing Sony and the ps4, and I do agree the ps4 is sweet. But honestly, I currently have no interest in the ps4 as there is only one game for it that interests me Infamous Second Son. I like Sony and all but I been burned by them too many times over the years, even more than MS. See I bought a ps3 in November 2006 for the riddiclous price point of 600 dollars. To later see that there aren't any games for the system for the first 2 YEARS of its life. My parents look at me ( I was 19 at the time) and say you pretty much wasted 600 bucks on a blu ray player, with no games and a crappy online service SMH. So later I buy a psp for 150 bucks and once AGAIN, got burned with its lack of games, another face palm. A few years ago I bought a vita becuase I believed in the Sony hype train again, and what happens? Sony burnes me YET AGAIN, with a another slightly more powerful psp with few games. So yea, I was a hardcore Sony fan but after all that, I am not falling for Sony and its hype machine anymore. Until more games that interest me hit the ps4 like Uncharted 4, Last of Us 2, and Infamous Second Son come out, I am sticking with the Xbox One. Even though MS is no saint, but they haven't burned me or cost me as much money as Sony. Anyone else got burned by Sony like I did? Are you still buying the ps4 at launch or are you waiting?

Let me explain, see the reason I bought a ps3 at launch is because I was a lot like the ps4 fanboys and bandwagon fans prior to its launch. I was a previous ps1 and ps2 owner and was loving it and thought Sony could do no wrong. Even with the awful E3 2006 reveal I still had faith that Sony wouldn't let me and fellow fans down. How wrong I was, because those first 2 years were awful with my 360 friends and family laughing at me until I eventually bought one in late 2008. But I was still a huge Sony supporter and fell into the hype train of the psp and Vita, only to be burned by there lack of quality games. And ultimately, there were only about 6 games on the ps3 that I really enjoyed through its life span. I still like Sony but I am no longer on their hype train and I am not on Microsoft's either. I am a gamer and I am just waiting on getting a ps4 until the games I like are actually released and not just buying a console with no games I really want just because I am a fan of Sony. No I am not fanboy and I am getting BOTH next gen consoles but I will be getting the Xbox One first this November for Dead Rising 3 and Killer Instinct.
