I wonder if Sony will switch to puma cores, like they suggested at some point to cut costs and improve performance. From what I understand, it's an easy transition for manufacturing the customized APUs.

Reviews?

Systems don't matter. All that matters is games. Buy the system your friends are on and that has the exclusives you like the best.

I just got a PS4, which I honestly would've held out for a while on, but with Arkham Knight only exclusively for next gen consoles, I had to get one. I stay with Playstation only because Arkham gets more exclusive content, and the chance of another God of War. I'm not a big online player, and the only Xbox exclusive game that ever even tempted me to get and Xbox was Gears of War.

The release of Metal Gear Solid might make me join you. The major thing holding me up is that they still release new games for PS3. Don't understand why, but who am I to question the mighty Sony corporation.

There's just so many titles exclusive to Playstation that I see previews for that I'm like, "fuck that looks awesome." God of War, InFamous, Metal Gear Solid (although the new one will be on Xbox), Uncharted, MLB The Show, Heavy Rain, The Last of Us, Twisted Metal, then Batman gets more content. I look at Xbox and am like, man, that gears of war looks bad ass. But then that's it. Ryse looked cool too, but just not enough. You look at some of their other exclusive titles and they just seem like garbage. It's like Bot said, it has nothing to do with the console, it's the exclusive content, and Xbox is lagging IMO.

One time 10% off code for US- KF56EM5KB3

There's also a flash sale going on now for indie games. You can grab Resogun for $3, normally $15. Or $2.70 if you use that discount code.

Thanks. I used it to buy Oddworld. With the discount, plus the free $10 I got for buying the PS4, it only cost me $15.

I think now would be the time to do it. You're going to start seeing less and less big AAA titles on last gen consoles.

Well, how long are you talking when you say "stick with the PS3"? I say if you really do not want to let go of the PS3 just yet, the longest you should hold off is about September this year.

If you can afford it, buy the PS4.

This is going to be a big year for the next gen. With The Division, Mortal Kombat X, The Witcher III, Bloodbourne, etc all coming up. By September, there will be a lot to play and a lot to look forward to for holiday releases. Also, last gen ports being delayed or even cancelled are becoming more and more common. If you're a gamer, upgrading would be wise this year. And who knows what gets announced at E3, but whatever it is, it probably will not be too exciting for those on PS3/360.

Last of Us is one of my favorite games of all time. As far as blown away by the experience.

I actually got the PS4 black friday bundle with both of these games. I already had Last of Us on PS3 but it was that good and they included the DLC which I didn't have on the PS3, which I just remembered typing it now, damn I have to get back to that game and play it. GTA5 is pretty entertaining, but I didn't get sucked into it like a lot of folks do, I think because I'm not as good at shooting things in it, so I end up getting shot a lot. The driving and cars and misssions and story is all excellent, and the detail if crazy. At one point I found myself watching this horrible anime spoof tv show on the actual in game TV, in character as Michael sitting on a couch watching tv.

I tried getting that bundle, but every time I went to check out, it said they were sold out.
