Next Gen, I will get the Wii U, PS4 and maybe xbox720 (though I'm pretty sure it won't be called that). Now for handhelds I'll be getting the Vita because I already have the 3DS and I love it.

So I guess then...all of them.

How shallow that you absolutely need exclusives.

Why is it shallow for him to like exclusives?

PS4, wii U. Right now any problems ps3 is having will be fixed for PS4. I'm not paying $60 a yr to play online anymore. I'm sick of paying for internet to my house, buying the MP & then again having to pay microsoft to use a feature that is on the disc i payed for. F U. Plus SONy will adress things lke party chat, synching issues, harddrive space for installation & such & all while having a better price & all exclusives. My RROD box will not rip me off anymore. The way i see it why board a sinking ship [720] again.

[QUOTE="blaznwiipspman1"]I have come to realize that console gaming blows, and pc gaming is where its at, even though i have all the consoles this gen except for the wii (which i will be getting soon) My plan for next console gen (PC isn't part of the weaksauce console gen) is to pick up the wii u and stick with my pc. I will miss halo, gears of war and uncharted but oh well, no big deal.

On fix hardware, I plan for AMD Trinity APU based 15.4 inch laptop. Hopefully with another (28 nm process tech) AMD Cayman based GPU in CrossFireX. . . From LinkThe power use in the above graph is a result of a controlled test on an external monitor, so we repeated this metric again, this time using the laptop's own display. The A8-3500M laptop lasted two hours and 12 minutes. Assuming the Intel laptop used the exact same battery, it would run for one hour and 22 minutes. This is very impressive. Not only does the A8-3500M get about twice as much time out of its battery, it does so while delivering far better graphics performance. The implications of this are profound: a Llano laptop user might be able to play a mainstream 3D game for an entire two-hour flight with decent frame rates, while the Intel Core i5-based platform would only last for half of the flight with choppy performance ------- Hopefully, AMD Trinity would deliver the same mobile HD gaming battery usage as AMD Llano. PS; Most gaming laptops are not true mobile HD gaming devices e.g. my current Dell Studio XPS 1645 can only last about 1 hour at HD gaming or they switch to Intel Sandybridge IGP. On graphics, AMD Trinity would blow away Intel IvyBridge.

Next Xbox first. They're outspending the competition in terms of research and development. Expect it to be the most powerful console next generation.

I'll get the wii u, because I'm loyal to nintendo and want thier games. Now that I have a gaming pc, I'll most likely not upgrade from my 360.

Most likely both the Wii U and Ps4.

Not even thinking about the 720.

Probably the PS4. I was burned by Microsoft this generation. And Nintendo will probably disappoint. Not to say I wont give MS or Ninty or another chance, but the PS3 is my favorite console this gen... so I imagine it'll remain the same next gen.

I feel the same. I think the Wii U will either be amazing, or a bit of a disappointment, but the Ps4 will be the safe bet.

PS4 + Vita + PC. The best. I might get a Wii U, but it's looking too gimmicky and Nintendo's online has always been absolute garbage.

I think the Wii U will be a GOOD console, and surely it'll be an improvement over the Wii this gen... but I cant imagine it being better than the PS4 or Xbox 3. If the PS4 delivers then I'm more likely to own a Wii U as a secondary than 720.

Definitely Wii U(going to wait for price drops) and maybe the ps4 if I like the exclusives. Probably not going to get the next M$ console since I dislike the direction they are going in currently as far as gaming is concerned.

[QUOTE="Ninja_Odin"]Wii U is not next gen. Demonjoe93

How is that exactly?

It has Wii in its name

He probably has a crystal ball that is telling him the Wii U's hardware specs.

Or he is one the people who thought the Wii U was just a new controller for the Wii.

You think PC gaming isnt so great, when it is.

pelvist

i dont think so i know so. Awful software buggy locked down huge installs no thanks.

Yep, you've obviously never had a decent gaming PC in your life. That would explain why you have such a poor view of what PC gaming is really like, you just copy what other consolites who also have no idea what its like to be a PC gamer say. We have heard all these silly, ill informed comments before.

Most people that go PC for gaming never look back at consoles but then, you would never know. Your consoles almost at the end of its lifecycle, get a job, save up and get yourself a PC, youll love it.

Don't insult people like that. You don't know who they are or what their experiences were. PC gaming is not problem-free, and some of the best games are not available on PC.

console blows? not agree with TC lol! I upgrade my PC every 2 years, now PC is great for multiplatform games, but even 6 years after owning 360 and ps3, they still bringing out awesome exclusive such as RDR, Demon's soul, R3, killzone 2 etc. that completely toss everything PC has to offer to toilets(except metro last light and BF3 which will be much better on PC that's where I gonna play at.)

I'm afraid the next gen consoles will likely....be the terminator of all PC gaming, more innovative gaming control, better communication interface, far more powerful spec and upgradable, I sure will buy all next gen consoles except wii u and probalby still upgrade my PC

you obviously don't have a gaming pc then....the PC is already well into the consoles next gen graphics level, probably even further past into the next next gen of consoles. The level of graphics PC gaming runs at isn't something a weaksauce $5 graphics card can compete with

Being a casual gamer I'll be getting the PS4. The XBOX 360 breaks too much and has too many problems to deal with.

My PS2 still works so i'm goin with the new Playstation.

not only I have a gaming PC, but it's better and beyond than the one you have in your signature. I7 985 Extremely edition 4.33ghz(OCed) GTX480 1.5G(oced) and 9G DDR3 tri channel, and of course you don't own a single console so stop lying.

lol! current PC is anywhere near at next gen lvl? like you have a clue, mind you, every gen console only getting stronger and last longer, ps2 and xbox1 at launch were only 1/5 at what top of the line PC spec at time, however start from 360 and ps3 gen, either console slaughter PC graphic and hardware for a good 2 and a half years, I still remember using 7900GTSLI playing double agent with inferior graphic and performance, and PC's sports title never catch up on the graphic.

beside, graphic is far from the only one department future gaming will gets refined., portal ability, accessibility, community communication, innovative no controller control etc. which PC lacks all, that's why 80% PC gamers now using 360 controllers, as a pc gamer myself, nothing against PC gaming, just my predication on where gaming world will heading so a single platform guy like you could have some insight.

All of em. Give me all the best gaming platforms a addictive gamer can have! If you want to enjoy the best each system has to offer, with their epic first party games, then you have to get all three. That or risk missing out on some great games.

DaJuicyMan
But the Xbox 360 won't be the next system released. I'm sure they will do some intense R&D on their next console, because another debacle like their infamous RROD would probably have gamers giving up on Microsoft completely. I'll be aboard with all three. I'd even grab a Dreamcast 2 if Sega would release one.

Depends what Nintendo, MS and Sony are offering. For me, it can lean to one of the 3. Very likely I may lean towards either MS or Sony, though. Nintendo needs to do something with 3rd party publishers to really win me back, like the SNES days.

If there's one thing I WILL NOT DO, is buying all 3 consoles.

1 console is more than enough, plus an iPhone 6 or 7.

Not too crazy about handhelds in general anymore. I also may go into PC gaming, so anything can happen.

I already own a 3DS (still waiting for some decent exclusives for it...)

I am definitely buying the Vita (got it preordered already, will probably be my main system for both multiplatform games and exclusive games).

My PC is still pretty good (got a nice one in 2009) which will be good for some upcoming PC exclusives (probably will have to play on medium graphics :P ).

As for the Wii U, PS4, and XBOX^3, those are definitely on a wait and see list. The Wii U has yet to show anything particularly interesting (features, games, or otherwise) and the next Sony and MS boxes are nothing but ??? right now so no opinions on those yet...

Wii U looks horrible, the next Xbox is more than likely going to be a lot more casual given what Microsoft is pushing right now with the 360, so the only safe bet for me is Sony's next console.

PS4 on launch, Wii U when it has Zelda, Mario and Mario Kart available. MS would have to make Live free and get some first party devs with talent before i'd consider buying the next Xbox. I had all 3 this gen and in hindsight was a waste of money so next gen it will be 2 at most.

Some of the best games are not available on consoles either and furthermore consoles are also not entirely problem free. Ignorant comments left by ignorant people warrants an ignorant response, but at least I offered good advice as well.

If people want to lie about something they dont have experience with on a public forum then they should expect to be corrected on it. Whats that you say? How do I know he doesnt? - I dont, but judging by this partiular persons comments on this forum its pretty obvious to me, and since its ok for him to make ignorrant assumption then its ok for me to make an educated one.

Feel free to report my offensive post like you did the last one...

jtm33

It is easy, xbox 720 will have Halo, Fable, Forza and Gears and the best WRPGs (like Witcher) which are games that i would buy a xbox for, maybe a Remedy and Crytek game too and of course the amazing XBLA with the host of unique games

I will only consider a WiiU after a new Zelda, probably in 2015

And i have no specific game i would buy a PS4 for, so that would be my last choice
