I play predominantly on PC, but I also had a PS3 for Sony's incredible exclusives. Buying a PS4 was no-brainer for me. I know my PC is going to look superior, but there are PS4 games I won't be able to play on PC.

@GTR12: Yes, it is a wireless router. I use ethernet for PC, but PS3/PS4 and 3DS are all connected with wifi.

Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight was one of the first PC games I ever bought after my family finally got a decent PC capable of running some games. I loved it, and still do to this day.

I love how your complaint about A Link Between Worlds, the most drastic departure from the established Zelda formula since Ocarina of Time, is that they didn't change enough. It made me chuckle.

Anyway, looking back at 2013 there is no question in my mind that the 3DS had the strongest lineup. I finally bought one around the time Pokemon X/Y came out and I adore it.

I find the concept fascinating, and I am interested in it as a product. Will I actually buy one? No, probably not. I know how to build computers, so unless one comes out that is cheaper than actually throwing an HTPC together (highly unlikely), then no, I won't buy one.

@jasean79: I'm talking for second screen stuff, not connecting to my PSN account or anything. Yeah, I'm using the PS app, and according to that the system and phone have to be on the same network. The only reason I ask is because the same thing happens with the Chromecast I just bought. According to various forums I've seen, certain routers can have problems with it based on whether they're 2.4ghz or 5ghz.

My router is a ****** of some sort. I'm not sure of the exact model, and I'm not at home right now so I can't check, but I got it for like $35 at Walmart mostly because I don't use wifi that much since my PC is plugged in with ethernet.

Anyway, I recently got a Chromecast and after setting it up I noticed that it just won't connect with any of my devices. Chromecast itself stops saying it's connected and my iPhone won't find it. I also tried on my Nexus 7, but nothing. I browsed google for some solutions and it seemed that this is a fairly common issue. I just decided that Chromecast was a terrible product and moved on.

Last night, though, I wanted to connect my phone to my PS4, and despite the fact that my PS4 was connected to the internet, my phone wouldn't find it. I didn't try it on my tablet, but my concern now is that maybe my router just isn't good enough to handle this sort of thing. Thoughts?

@Meteor7: Yep, according to Kotaku, they're taking credit for it: http://kotaku.com/hackers-claim-to-have-broken-eas-origin-service-on-p-1493676357?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Facebook&utm_source=Kotaku_Facebook&utm_medium=Socialflow

@danjammer69: Ok, so Steam is working again now and installing my game. Origin still isn't. Still no idea what's happening. If it's happening to a lot of people I guess DDOS is a possibility. Who knows?

EDIT: Hey, Origin came up too! But it says the Origin Login service is unavailable. I tried to login in anyways, and it's doing the same circle and moving dot thing.
