The ps4 has a weak launch line up in my opinion, and I prefer the Xbox One launch games and XBL. I will get a ps4 a year or two latter.

Even I may get a PS4 in 2 years or so. But with it being a gaming system only, its gotta come down in price.

Everyone except fakeboys like TC are getting a PS4. Whether it be at launch or a year from now it is gonna be everyones next gen choice. Not even M$ employees want a Xbone.

Silly cow :) but hey, if you love the PS4 more power to you. Just gauging why some other people don't. No big deal. Not a fakeboy. Just someone that doesn't want a PS4 for the reasons I stated :) Its ok if we disagree you know :)

:) its ok fakeboy :) enjoy your spy box :) :):):)

Might get one, just definitely not at launch. 

I'd only be buying it for the multiplats since the exclusives shown are unimpressive to say the least.

1. Pay to Play multiplayer

2. Uninteresting launch line-up

3. My PS3 hasn't ran its course yet

4. Plenty of games to buy on my PC

5. Lack of money

I will definetely buy one though in 2 or 3 years,once the good games start showing up.

I'm poor now because a) I quit my GamingBolt job a few months ago and b) I'm going off to college in a few weeks, so I have to start spending much less on games

at this point the x1 has better games imo and since where it's a gaming console that is my number 1 reason.

regardless of how creepy the tech in kinect 2 is, they sold me on it. i'm at least curious about the possibilities now.

roaches make me want to become a hermit, lem or sheep.

i never have to turn the console off. i can switch from tv to movies to games to music seamlessly and even do multiple things at once.

xbl is, has been and will always be better than psn. roaches can say what they want as long as they acknowledge it as the emmy winning xbl.

i'll get a ps4 next spring but i'm 1. not ever paying 2 consoles for online services and 2. i need more than multiplats that appeal to me to show up on the ps4.

but you're not poor yet :P also, it's college. everyone figures out how to scrape the bottom of the barrel for money. mostly by dropping expensive habits like console gaming and replacing them with cheap habits like PC gaming, like i did :D

I don't buy new systems at launch, no BC, and you have to pay to play online now. I can wait plus I prefer it over the Xbone.

Yeah, but when you see the price of it versus a Xbox One, and take into account the gaming side, I save a ton on the Xbox One turning the HD TV I already have into a smart one.

Why did your parents breed?

Says the guy that created an account specifically to emulate a successful individual like Kaz on an internet forum. I wonder who's parents are more proud of their child yours or his? Food for thought much?
