Did you really just say that PC-gaming isn't an option?
No, I said nobody took it seriously. And even then, "it" was in response to the "PC Gaming Master Race" comment.

It's possible I wasn't talking about the platform at all.

If the exclusives are interesting to me, i'll buy that console. That'll mean i'll likely end up with a PS4 in around 2-3 years when a decent amount of exclusives are on it (The Nextbox would need to do something amazing with Halo to get me to buy that though). For multi platform games my PC will always be the first choice anyway.

I already own a Wii U, and it is pretty awesome, just wish it had more games out for it. I'll probably eventually get a PS4. As for the new Xbox, I've turned my 360 on literally 3 times, and only have 3 games for it. If they would have made Gears of War 2/3 for PC, I doubt I would have bought my 360 at all, so I will most likely not get the new Xbox for a very long time, if I ever get it.

I grabbed a Wii U on launch day and have been really happy with it...except for that game drought that happened...but now Monster Hunter 3 Premium-Cut-Crack-Cocaine is out and I've been addicted to that and not Lego City Underground like I thought I would be. The biggest gripe I have with the U at the moment is that a lot of the available games and indeed, the games forecast in general are made up of titles that were released last year. I don't mind buying Deus Ex again since I've bought worse games more than once but I know I'm the minority there and I also know I'm one of maybe 4 or 5 people who played Mass Effect 3 and Arkham City on the Wii U instead of getting it months ago on any other platform.

I think I'm going to end up grabbing the PS4 at some point in a couple of years, once the slim model is out (I laughed at that...we don't even know what the normal one looks like yet) and when the PS4 games that have been out have enjoyed a price cut of some kind.

I really hope the rumors about the NeXtBoX are true because I want as many reasons as possible to pass it up this coming generation. I liked the Xbox 360 this gen well enough but I hated Xbox Live Gold and like another poster said, the exclusives do absolutely nothing for me at best and, at worst I absolutely despise. It also looks like the chances of Microsoft letting Rare make something I'd buy is around 0% and 5% and the odds of another Steel Battalion with a GIGANTIC FUCKING CONTROL ARRAY is somewhere in the negatives.

I don't play PC games. I don't comprehend PC games. I can't run Minecraft on my laptop and fear the expense required to make such games run on my computers. Luckily it looks like a lot of games are being ported over to PSN, e-Shop, etc.

As for Handhelds I already own a 3DS and am planning on grabbing an XL at some point just for the sake of having an extra Mii to help me through Find Mii though it'll probably be an import since I want some import games. As for the PSV, I can get a domestic and import to my hearts content however...there are too few games on the PSV that I couldn't just get on the PS3/PS4...I really want to want a PSV but I can't justify it yet. If nothing else I'll likely have a PSV before I can play SCP: Containment Breach or, whatever the next big PC exclusive will be.

If the 360 goes all online/no used games then my choice would be PS4.
However as to whether or not I get a PS4 depends on the games.
Well what if the PS4 does the same?

After all, both sides have rumors of DRM.

OT: I dropped consoles back in the PS2 era and became a PC gamer. They didn't have games that interested me then, and they sure don't now. Nothing changed.
I thought PS4 was already confirmed to be no DRM of that sort?
If it does it won't really bother me.
Just PS3/PS2/PC games from then on.
It was confirmed that there would be no DRM or anything that can block used games. Well the last part should be clarified since publishers can block used games on ps4 but they can already do it on the ps3 with things like online passes and such. So for the most part not much is changing.

Where's the "None of the above" option? I have no interest in any of the next gen consoles. None what so ever.

I'm getting a PS4 for sure, but that's because I'm a PlayStation fan and I love Sony's 1st party devs like Naughty Dog. I'm open to other systems though, but I'll have to see what they offer. I had some mild interest in the Wii-U due to the Wind Waker remake, but the system it's self isn't really "next gen" in my book and I think it's going to end up being a disappointment in the long run.

I don't have much interest in the next Xbox either, but that's because I don't know anything about it yet lol. However I want MS to seriously change some of their business aspects, I want them to make XBL free and get some more exclusives. Just my opinion though.

I'm excited about next gen, I think it's going to be good for everyone.

I had a PS3 this gen and a PS2 last gen, but I don't think I'll get a PS4. None of the features look very useful or interesting, and there are no exclusives that I care about. The only games that looked interesting to me were Destiny and Watch Dogs, and they're both coming out on PS3 anyway.
I've heard alot about Xbox 720 needing always-on DRM and probably keeping the paid XBL. If they lose these features, I'd really consider getting Microsoft's new console. I'm not a huge fan of multiplayer (although I do CoDz and ME3 frequently) so that doesn't matter to me, and I've been sick this gen of having loads of DLC for the games I like late.
I won't consider becoming a PC gamer though, no way. If I get a decent gaming laptop I'll use it to buy games I already have and mod them.

You will get what I give you and you will be grateful for it.

While PC is a given for me, I think waiting on what games and how they shape up will decide my console of choice. Though in the end I see myself with both Microsoft and Sony console.
