i've been seeing commercials for the new Pokemon, and it's seriously tempting me to buy a 3ds.

I'm getting a PS4 and an extra controller to play Madden.

I already have a Wii U and a OUYA. And I'm planning to get a PS4. The XBox One just doesn't have any exclusives to make it worth my time until Halo 5 comes out. The Oculus looks awesome, especially with an Omni treadmill... But I'm kind of waiting until I can get the HD version.

None, because I am a broke college student. Sigh.

Also, I usually wait for the second generation models to come out and fix a few bugs. When I do get around to it, it'll probably be the PS4. I'm just not a fan of the direction Microsoft is taking the Xbox. They seem more focused on a general home media device than a game console. This is fine, I guess, save for the fact that the only non-game things I do on any of my consoles are Netflix and YouTube, so as long as there's an app for that, I'm good.

That and with more and more titles being cross platform, it doesn't seem to matter much which side you choose in terms of content availability. The only Xbox "exclusive" I've wanted thus far is Titanfall, and there's hinting that might eventually make its way to the PS4 anyway.

After owning an Xbox and a 360, I was a bit disappointed to see the route MS took with the Xbox One. They are getting better after all the flack they got, but I'm still not sold on it. On the other hand, after spending the last two generations bitching about the playstation, they basically told me exactly what I want to hear. I'm still on the fence if I even need a console at all these days (after just spending a bunch of cash upgrading my pc), but if I decide to get a console a few years down the line so far the PS4 is looking mighty nice.

Either that or I just get an Oculus Rift, get hooked on the mega-net and never come back again.

What the hell, it's boolean!
