Praise the Sun!
I know most of us are mainly PC gamers, but some of us also dabble in consoles. Now that a lot of the information about the new console generation is out I wanted to see what everyone thought. Take the poll and let's start a discussion (read: flame Microsoft thread) on these new consoles. I am going to keep this to the main 3 contenders and not their handheld variations. You can select multiple if you are someone would wants them all!

I've been a Microsoft/Xbox fan boy since the original. However, based on the business direction the company seems to be going towards more of an entertainment machine over a gaming machine I think I'll be switching to Sony and the PS4. Neither really has an awesome lineup, but when do new consoles ever do. Nintendo's upcoming holiday lineup is making it a lot closer than I expected. Nintendo's strategy seems to be get the system out early and compete with the big boys with a better game lineup. Too bad the WiiU's graphics, processing power, and online gameplay won't compare to the other two.
 
I already own a Wii U for the Nintendo titles (Zelda, Smash, Mario, etc). But I'll always have the next PS system as well. This time around I just don't have to fight myself for ALSO getting the XBox console. Feel very happy with what's been shown so far.
 
I haven't owned a console since PS2 but the PS4 may be my first jump in a long time to console gaming. It just looks to be a lot of fun with friends. And that is what I like.
 
I had a PS2 until I played the shit out of it and the laser died on me, then again on a newer one. I've had a 360 for awhile but it was ONLY for playing with friends, I really didn't like the direction Microsoft was already taking with the 360 as far as live and everything else went. PS4 looks pretty solid and if I'm able to swing it when the time comes, I shall have one dammit! Destiny [TAB] fire teams, gogo! Throw me in with Zakis! I will dig this up upon release if anyone wants to fight over it lol
 
Ushually go with Xbox but with there unclear used game policy and the having to sign in or you cant play games im Definitely going for the PS4
 
Already preordered the PS4, will probably pick up a WiiU further down the line for smash & whatever monolith makes, loved me some Xenoblade.

I own all consoles from every generation going back to the NES minus dreamcast so in all likelihood I will get an XBone at some point. Although with M$ pushing out a lot of PC/Xbone crossovers in the future might not have to.

Dude Destiny is why I am even considering it :)
 
I usually pick up whatever console my friends end up getting. Playing games is always better with others. There seem to be very few console specific games this time around. Anyone have a list?

THIS

plus if they get backwards compatibility working with Gaikai streaming there are a few PS3 games I want to play but haven't been able to (since I haven't owned a console since PS2 *ponydurr:). Not gonna preorder, probably won't buy at launch, but I'll be getting one eventually.
