I agree that GTA IV was boring and certainly overrated, but I don't think anything can come close to MGS IV as far being the most overrated game of last gen.  The game got near perfect reviews from almost every site but was nothing more than cutscene after cutscene the entire game.  A complete piece of trash IMO.

The point is that Amazon is not really the best way to get a new console. I enjoy release night. It is a fun social setting and everyone there is hyped up! Like I said earlier, I'll get my XBOX ONE and be out the door of Gamestop about 12:10 AM. Go home hook it up and get through all of the initial set up crap so that way in the morning, I'll just be ready to game. Meanwhile the Amazonians wont even get their system until midday on launch day and wont even be playing until that night. ShoTTyMcNaDeS

Saving $30 in sales tax and not having to stand out in the cold with a bunch of crazies is totally worth ordering from Amazon.  I think I can wait until the evening of launch day to play.  Besides I have a job and life so a midnight release is a no go.

[QUOTE="david61983"]I would definitely hold off at this point. I was watching Fox Business this morning and they were talking about how Nintendo and it's console department are in shambles. Their business analysts said that the Wii U had been a major disaster for Nintendo thus far and that it was very unlikely they could turn things around. It could very well be another Virtual Boy so I would certainly hold off at least until there is a major price cut. Way too much risk in buying one right now even if you're a Nintendo fanboy. masterninja9
