  1. 1. At this point, which console are you most likely to buy first?

  2. 2. Will you buy a next gen console at launch?

PS4 - Launch

 

Haven't had issue with any console I bought at launch, though I can already foresee the Xbone launch having a particular server error (i.e. Diablo 3) where no one can play the console they blew $500 on for the first week because "Gee, you haven't checked-in, Billy."

The fact that you only have to check in once every 24 hours should help with that somewhat, since you won't be required to maintain your connection.

 

Although you do presumably have to connect right away the first time, and every time you want to register a game for your account, which I imagine could make for some very frustrated kids Christmas morning.

It helps. But if you can't do it, and you keep retrying over and over (which is the natural reaction) then the whole system collapses. People were a bit peeved at having to download a bunch of updates for WiiU. It won't be great if they have to go through all this crap for Xbone.

I'm not going to buy a next-gen console. The only game I'm invested in that I still give a shit about is Halo. That'd be the only reason I'd ever buy one again, hence my voting.

 

Well I lied.

 

If there's ever a new Banjo game...

 

Other than that I think I'm done with consoles.

 

ALSO:

 

 

I'm waiting for those willing to challenge me.

I make no secret of the fact that I am going to get an Xbone the very moment Halo 5 comes out (hopefully some kind of bundle).  The only question is whether enough stuff will come out on the PS4 prior to that that I get it first.  But Playstation has no single killer app for me the way Xbox has with Halo.  Halo and Zelda are the only franchises that, standing alone, will sell a system for me.

A series that wasn't developed by its original creators does this for you?
