Want to play Disney Infinity 2.0, but don't want to invest in the pricey starter kit and figures?

Play it on PC....For Free.

The most intriguing thing to me is the fact that there's a PlayStation 2 game published by NEC!
There was a GameCube game published by them as well, Tube Slider.

Is Tube Slider a port of a hentai game?

My pops and a few of my close friends have an Xbox One; It's not selling so well but it has a lot that I'm looking forward to. Halo is coming too.
A lot of my friends from Up North have a PS4; most of you are playing on PS4; lots of great exclusives.
Wii-U is gaining momentum and some stuff that is interesting me is finally coming out.

I am really thinking about getting at most two out of the three.

I have no idea how to prioritize this.
I own all three.

I sometimes play my PS4.

I only very rarely play my Wii U.

The only time I've turned on my Xbox One since like April is to update the system software. I may have also played 5 minutes of KI. Yay.

In all truth, unless there's THAT GAME that you are dying to play for one of them, there isn't much reason to buy any of the newer consoles yet. If you have medium-good PC you've got 90% of interesting PS4/X1 releases covered and if you have a PS3/360 you have 80% of the interesting Wii U releases covered. I'd wait and see what the exclusive pile for each console looks like (what came out and how they were reviewed) after the new year.

You mean current gen and purchase and enjoy despite resale depreciation? Or do you mean you're investing in stocks now for when the next gen comes out in 5+ years? :P
LOL

Yeah, I remember you correcting JsGameRoom in his thread. You're right, which current gen console should I purchase and enjoy despite resale depreciation?

Thanks Dave!

I know I'll want to play the Halo series once it's out and aboot. But that's still up in the air, and I don't know if the Master Chief Collection is worth the purchase alone. I'd dabble in it and possibly play the multiplayer, but it's honestly just reexploring the series. I wonder if Sunset Overdrive will live up to its expectations and marketing campaign that is driving it. Then there's Destiny, which I definitely want to explore but might give it some time.

Smash Brothers, Zelda, and some of the Mario stuff is interesting.

I think you'e right though that I should wait until the holiday releases are reviewed and a potential price drop and/or a great Black Friday / Slick Deal update that merits a purchase.

I agree with the above about there not being much reason to buy the new consoles. I've gotten more hours out of Titanfall than I care to admit but that won't be most people. Dead Rising 3 was really good too so I would have no problem recommending an Xbox One to someone as long as they likes online shooters. At the same time my original point still stands.

I'm like you, I can't wait for Halo 2. Being able to play online again is going to be unreal.

Are you making a sly reference to Oppai Slider? (NSFW DUH) Because if you are, you're awesome.

I actually owned Tube Slider, it was not a very good futuristic racing game. That's saying a lot because I'm a sucker for futuristic racing games. It was kind of a poor man's Ballistics.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

Unfortunately, I had no idea that game existed.

Fortunately, I now have a new game to look for. :mrgreen:

Full-blown hentai games are rarely good. There are some great JRPGs with eroge elements, however.
