Good thing there are more games coming later and you're not restricted to only buying launch titles. :wink:

Yea, the launch line up can be hit or miss with some people. Thankfully there are a lot of good games to look forward too. :)

I don't get how people continue to disregard the Killzone series. It was one of the best series of the last gen and is a system seller for me. Having it at launch makes me giddy.

Besides, any cross-platform games (AC4, sports games, Battlefield or COD, etc.) should be stronger on the PS4 over the XboxOne. Other than Killer Instinct and Crimzon Dragon, I am not excited about much in the One's launch lineup. I'll still be getting both systems on day one, though.


Killzone is a good game and by no means am I disregarding it but I can't justify spending $500+ to play it.

Of course not. Has there ever been a single game that you felt justified the price of entry for a console at launch (or any other time in its life?)? No. I want to play Killzone when it comes out, and I eventually want to play lots of other PS4 games too (including some other launch titles). May as well get it at the start.

I see where you're coming from. I'm just going to wait a few more months for infamous or thief. They'll ease the pain of paying $500+ a little more than Killzone imo.

Don't we have a thread for that? (and for me, yes there has been. it's my freaking avatar :P)

This reminded me of this PSA video.

Although I already had a Genesis at the time, I would agree that's a game worth buying the system for just given the ridiculous number of times I played through it

That's exactly how I feel. I think I only played it with Sonic 3 attached maybe once or twice. Sonic 3 is like the boring first half of a movie and Sonic & Knuckles is the epic second half

Now that Watchdogs got pushed back I think I'll be canceling my preorder of PS4 as there are no other games that really interest me atm and I'll be playing COD Ghosts on the xbox 360 with my friends anyway.
