When do you plan on going "Next Gen?"

[Loony BoB]

I intend on getting a PS4 in 2014. I just don't know when - could be next month, could be December.

I'll be doing the same as most sensible people and waiting till the price drops. I'll definitely be purchasing a PS4 though. I can guarantee it won't be before the following games are released...

- Uncharted 4
- Final Fantasy XV
- Metal Gear Solid 5

Once those bad boys arrive I'll be all over it.

I have a Wii U but I'm going to be all rebellious and not class that as next gen.

Went for "some time in the next 5 years" but it could be within a year depending on games (e.g. FFXV but I doubt that as a release date would've been announced by now).

I wasn't in a huge hurry with the PS3 either especially since it was so pricy at first and didn't get it until the slim model. I was early-ish with the 360 and regretted it (it's noisy). I'll get one, but it'll be when the problems have been ironed out and there are plenty of games.

Since the stories are all I care about in games anylonger and view any type of gameplay as just a nuisance I don't think I will be buying any more gaming systems.

If a game comes out with a really good story I'll probably just watch a playthrough on youtube. No point in paying all that money for a new console when I don't even want to actually play the games anymore.

Yeah, it sounds like games aren't your thing anymore if that's the case . Personally, a story is just icing on the cake.

Story is good, but an immersive world is better. Gameplay helps aid immersion.

Yeah even when I was really into gaming I still put a much higher emphasis on story than the gameplay. I was just a lot more willing to go through the gameplay at that time.

Trying to remember back I believe the last game that I really enjoyed that still required a good amount of gameplay was the third xenosaga game. I got final fantasy 12 and never finished it because I just didn't want to deal with the gameplay. And the same for final fantasy 13.

The only game on the ps3 that I still really do enjoy playing (even though I hardly play it anymore) is Oblivion. And that is because I have the combat level set pretty low and I can just concentrate on exploration and just take a couple swipes at an enemy and he'll be dead.
