PS4 Mine Comes Tommorow - Got Yours Yet?

I thought about getting a PS4, but then I just bought a new video card instead.

Smart decision with DK2 coming up soon. I already bought new card few months back. A guy has to have his priorities! :)

I am torn about the PS4. I think it is wonderful for it's price, but as it is with every brand new game console it is gunna have it's issues. (Whatever they may be)

So I think I will wait a year or two until they come out with new models for it, expand the consoles library of games, or until they announce a game I just can't live without! :p

Like if they announce Uncharted 4 for it, I will be buying me one. I was planning on getting one for the sake of playing Kingdom Hearts 3. But once I learned that it is still years off I decided 'nah'. Besides. I have been enjoying portable devices as far as gaming goes more lately than consoles. The Vita is where it's at! (Now if we could only get a decent browser on it….)

I rather wait till it has some GAEMS :mrgreen:

Yes, I just read that most games don't take advantage of a consoles hardware until later in it's development cycle. Therefore, the early games, for the most part, will still seem like playing the PS3 performance wise. They said that very few of the launch title will run at 1080p/60 fps with Assassin's Creed 4 and COD Ghost both needing a patch for this. The only real advantage I see in a console over a PC is that many of your friends will be on the console. Unless, of course, your friends all own PC's.

(FED EX tracking now says "out for delivery") 8-)

The thing with this generation of consoles is that they are really, really underpowered compared to what the PS3/360 were when they launched.

Reasons:

1) Companies can't afford to sell them at a big loss anymore, so they put cheaper hardware instead
2) High end GPUs are more power hungry than they were in 2006, in fact maybe up to a 100W increase
3) SLI was really limited in use back then, now you can have 4 GPUs and soon with AMD's mantle, up to 8 GPUs on a machine.

Also how much better the graphics can be than the PC equivalent depends on the work put from studios. Aside Sony's first party titles I don't see many putting an effort squeezing the most of the machine. We will definitely get a really decent baseline for PC gaming though.

I am getting a PS4 when it launches in Europe. The real advantage is obviously console exclusives, which are really great games. There's no point in running multiplatform titles on consoles when you have a high end PC.
