    Yeah. It's pretty much making a release on every system. So no one will be able to miss out.

    I already have both the Wii U and the PS4. I enjoy them both. The Wii U finally has games worth playing. All look and play fantastically. For the longest time, ZombiU was the only thing it had going for it. Now you have Pikmin 3, Wind Waker HD, and Super Mario 3D World to play.

    The PS4 is a good improvement on the PS3, but so far that is all it is. The new controller feels great and is a good improvement over the old Dualshocks. I now own Need for Speed Rivals, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Assassin's Creed IV, Killzone Shadowfall, Flower, Sound Shapes, Resogun, and Contrast. All of the games look and play amazingly, but only two games are only for the PS4. The best title, by far, is Resogun, a free (with PS+) downloadable game.

    The only system really worth getting soon is probably the Wii U out of the three, but I'm sure during the next year each system will have great reasons to buy them. So, honestly, nobody is really missing out with the new "current" generation.

    i am at the moment feelinf fine with my ps3, and since the playstation had been my first console (i started with ps2) its only logic to get a ps4 in time.

    i will get it in time but at the moment i dont have a job so i dont want to make big purchases. there is still enough life on the ps3, so there is no need to get a ps4 at this very moment

    Logic? Why?

    Wouldn't logic be to get the console with the most games you want?

    I'll probably get a PS4 when there is a game I must have, and it's out for PS4. Danielle and I both are keen on getting one, and there isn't much of a point in delaying too long when we know we're gonna buy it. No point buying PS3 games when I can buy them for PS4, right?

    I don't buy games as often as most people, though, so it'll probably be around half a year away. Or maybe Danielle and I will split it for our birthdays in March.

    I'm considering getting a Wii U eventually, if only because it's backwards compatible and I don't have a Wii. Two birds, one stone kind of thing... but realistically I'll probably give it a miss unless Nintendo finally bother to release a must-buy game. Of which there is only really one option. A deep, rich, graphics-heavy Wii U Pokémon game in which you can literally catch them all, preferrably a MMO which releases additional regions/Pokémon with each expansion. Honestly, why Nintendo have never done this is beyond me because their systems would fly out the doors so fast that both Sony and Microsoft will sweat buckets.

    Of course, Sony & Microsoft should have really released something similar by now, but the closest we have is FFXIII-2.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    If Mirage is happy then I'm happy!

    Also anyone who liked the PS3 will probably enjoy the PS4. Already at launch its got the same good mix of AAA and indie that made the PS3 so good.

    I am probably going to be sitting this generation out. Nintendo has not greatly appealed to me and most of the games I do want I can now get on the PC. I look at my game collection from the previous generation and most of the stuff isn't an exclusive to only X system. They were multiplatform games. Already at launch that doesn't seem to be changing much.

    Plus with a wide variety of indie games, PC seems like the way to go.
