Sticking with my PC for my gaming needs.

I'll buy it half-price in 2015

I'm a PC gamer but I'll probably buy a PS4. Boy, did Sony lay the smack down on Microsoft.

I play mostly handhelds anymore and really only pick up stuff by Natsume (Harvest Moon, Rune Factory, Hometown Story) (DON'T JUDGE ME! :) ), but I'm really scratching my head at what they're doing over at Microsoft with this system. The always-on camera, the 24-hour connection, the horrible used game conundrum...what were they thinking?

Anymore my gaming is secondary to what the machine can do as far as streaming and the like...

I'll get a PS4 when it's 200 bucks.

By then, it should have a nice stable of (relatively inexpensive) games.

Now, did they plan this all along to look like nice guys when they backtrack, or did Sony out-manoeuvre them? ;)

That only addresses one of the problems. PS4 is just a more powerful, less expensive, and more user friendly system.

Mr_Cosmic

PS4 should be here today along with CoD:G and K:SF.
