New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)

I'm leaning more toward the PS4 myself, like I said the TV stuff really doesn't do much for me right now because of where I have my consoles hooked up. But in the future who knows. I wouldn't rule it out down the line. Right now all I want is a gaming machine. I think a lot of people are in that same boat and the PS4 will have the early advantage. MS will be in catchup mode at the start no doubt.

Just get the Wii U and be done with it!

Xbox One is up for pre-order on Amazon. Anyone taking the day one plunge?

I started a post on this last night that amounted to not likely and would be leaning towards the PS4 if I was to get a console early after release. However after seeing that Dead Rising 3 was going to be an exclusive as well as a launch title, well suffice to say that was a huge selling point for me.

So far the only promising PS4 exclusive I've come across is Infamous Second Son which doesn't come out until early 2014.

Surprised myself but I think I'm going to preorder the Xbox One pretty soon and get the PS4 early next year.

For all the bitching people sure snatched up those pre-orders.

I put myself on the list to be notified when more come available though it looks like Best Buy is still accepting pre orders. If I was to get it day one it would depend on Dead Rising 3 being available. I was actually surprised how much better Microsoft did then Sony with the exclusives though it seems similar to last generation as the 360 had a much better library early on then the PS3, though eventually the PS3 seemed to come out on top in terms of exclusives.

Regardless I'm starting to think I need to find a better paying job to get all the toys I have my eyes on :D (ie desktop gaming PC, Xbox One, PS4, and a new 1080p 50 inch flat screen, not to mention games).

I think I'll wait for the first price drop

My girlfriend works at Target. So I'm waiting for the pre-order there so I can use her 15% off and she get's an additional 5% off.

I'd rather pay $330ish for the PS4 than over $400.

Still not as restrictive as the Xbox but not nearly as cut and dry as they tried to make it seem last night as they were only talking about the first party titles having no restrictions, but just like this generation the individual publishers can put the same restrictions that are on the Xbox. So pretty much the main distinction is the price(which may be deceiving as there are some reports the new move camera may be required for some features of the games and that's another $60) and the online once a day connection.

I'm personally gonna wait until spring when all the truly next gen games come out and hopefully give them time to work out all the bugs and kinks or at least the major ones and I'll be buying both as I like the ability to play everything.

It gets worse and worse for Microsoft. Listen to this executive's answer to people without internet access. The arrogance and sheer stupidity. No dumbass, they'll just buy the PS4.

:doh:

Those people are more than likely scalpers who want to try and turn a buck off of it.
