So I have been an avid PC gamer now for about 2 years and the last system I owned was the PS3 (slim 160gb model). I have been more of a playstation gamer throughout the years although I did start out really on Nintendo in the 80's. My quesiton is right now with my vast library on my gaming pc rig, which is an expensive gaming pc, I would like to get a home console to game on as well. I have been looking at my choices right now and it seems as though I should really think about getting a next-gen console at this time. The problem is, that the systems are all pretty much sold out online for launch, the PS4, and XBOX One and on eBay and other sites they are charging a ton! I also have to look at the games coming out such as Watch Dogs, Assassin's Creed IV, Battlefield 4, CoD: Ghosts and they would all look better, even compared to the next-gen systems on my gaming PC. I am looking to get a console mainly to play titles that I CAN'T play on my PC such as sports titles and platformers. I really did like the Playstation Network and I did also have an XBOX 360 for a decent amount of time and I did enjoy some of the platform titles such as Gears of War and HALO, but not as much as the Playstation ones such as Final Fantasy games. It really leaves me to the options of basically getting the new "Super" Slim PS3 for awhile and getting a real good deal on one cheap because of the arrival of PS4 in November and playing that for awhile until prices go down on the PS4, or just kind of spending a little bit more for the PS4 now and try to get it at launch. I do have the money for it but I am just trying to make sense of all of this. I was also looking at the Wii U and the new Mario games, Zelda games and stuff and they do look fun and they would definitely be a "BIG" change for me not playing Nintendo games for awhile, also something I've been thinking about.
What do you guys think of my predicament, don't be afraid to give me your opinions! Thanks guys!
