My problem with the redone systems like that is they have been kind of buggy.

 

Yep.  Give me the original hardware or give me death!  (Not really.)

I was an early adopter for every system till now. With all the bugs and system-killing glitches the last consoles suffered, I think I'll wait a while on this round. I'm on my 2nd ps3 and my 3rd 360; I'm not doing that again.

 

Exactly. Same situation here with the EXACT same number of systems @_@ .. there's no reason to upgrade systems at this point.

 

And I don't want to start the moral thing again, but it feels weird to me to flip a system. And I have very little in the way of morality.

 

EDIT - Plus, I'm not paying for terrible servers. Its fine on the PS3 that the online is junk, but I wouldn't pay to use them.

PS4 is dead to me until Final Fantasy releases. Or GTA 6.

This is a really good point. I feel bad for all the people that got the red ring of death at the beginning of the Xbox 360 issue.

 

I bought a refurbished one from a shop shortly after it released- the guy had redone the board with a completely different mount, etc after it had red ringed. Ran perfect for 7 years (it was stolen, but it probably still runs perfect)

It's just brutal to look back and add up the "cost" of what having a PS3 and 360 were in my case... I'll wait until the inevitable first price drop, or the second version that fixes whatever hardware issues come up over the next few months.

 

Plus why would I leave GTAV behind?

I know - that was the biggest draw back here. I am wondering what games will actually come out that can use the real power of the next gen systems as well?

 

I am gonna start GTA5 this weekend. My buddy finished it and went to sell it. I got it from him for $35 which is a steal for that game. I played it a few times for a short bit. Incredible rendering and movement in that game.

I had to put gta away to start ac4... But I'll be back to it eventually. Seeing ac4 running on a ps4 makes it hard to wait lol. Looks amazing.

I kept up to the PS2 far as consoles go and that's it. Every few years yet another updated one comes around forcing you to upgrade all over again and again. Oh, the graphics may be shiny, models made up of a gazillion polygons, textures using lighting from a hundred directions, but if they don't have it where it counts in the gameplay department, I don't care.

In the meantime, I'm still in a neverending battle of zapping invaders from space.

Has anyone sold a PS4 yet?

I won't lie, I still have a PS2. I don't have the kind of money to upgrade unfortunately, but would like too. I especially like the Splinter Cells and Medal of honor, so I suppose shooters are my kind of games   I also have an FC Twin, for those that are unfamiliar it is a NES and SNES system in one. Pretty touchy if you move around the system it will erase your data easily but other then that a nice option for those that are still playing NES and SNES games. I like it. I have the original Final Fantasies on it and a few other games, like Zombies ate my Neighbors, love that game! Anywho, I read somewhere that the PS4 will not play older games, is this true? I thought all the systems were set up to play older games? Would hate to buy a PS4 eventually and then have to rebuy my games?

I just sold my Nintendo NES last year.  For the money, I still don't think there is a better game than Tecmo Super Bowl.

Friendships were lost because of people using Bo Jackson.

 

skipping the next gen of consoles.  just not into gaming as much thanks to lego

I sold my PS4 earlier today.  Has anyone seen any online retailers with the PS4 in stock?

Unexpectedly, the wife called and excitedly told me that she managed to find a PS 4 for me   Stoked!

As for Ebay - the percentage of people trying a scam like that is incredibly low. 

 

As for Craigslist - I have probably bought 1000 items on Craigslist (seriously) and never been shot or robbed once.
