Got NextGen?

xbox-ps5-800x450-1.jpg

Last week saw the release of both of the nextgen consoles, and we just wondered if you had managed to pick either one up?

Despite me being 99% PlayStation for the previous generation, I actually went with the Xbox this time around and scored myself a Series S! So far it's been fantastic! What did you get/want?

Next to being a Nintendo dude, I'm a PlayStation dude. So some day in the future I might get my hands on a PS5 - but as for now I have to skip it. I'm not saddened by that though, since some lovely people (they know who they are) gave me a PS4 earlier this year - so I'll have a LOT of fun things to discover still in the "last" generation! :D

Do you have a list?
I wandered through a game shop the other week looking at the PS4 shelf.
Nothing particularly jumped out at me. Most of what was there was just remasters of previous gen stuff which I played and enjoyed greatly back then but don't particularly need with all the DLC.

With the PS4, I got Control, Horizon Zero Dawn, Final Fantasy XV, Ni no Kuni 2, The Evil Within, Star Ocean and Final Fantasy Type-0.
I have only played the Three first so far and enjoyed it all. Horizon was fantastic, and Control makes me all giddy and excited and Final Fantasy XV is... Uhm, a bit odd lol :P It's more a question of what You enjoy!

I probably may get a PS5 later. PS4 was a complete waste of money for me I almost never touched it.

There are some kind of games that convince you to buy the whole console. I actually bought the WiiU just for super mario 3D world. Bought the PS2 just for devil may cry 1...

I tried for both ps5 digital edition and Xbox series S was only able to get the series S. I ok with that tho, I am loving game pass ultimate (its such a good deal). Currently the only game that I want a ps5 for is Demon's Souls and I still have the original PS3 version. So I can be patient, I will get one evantually.

not now. I need to have a confirmation whether PS5 will host Persona 6 or not. that's the only reason I bought a PS4. After that I played a bunch of games until I had enough money to buy a pc gaming. I definitely enjoy the PS4 exclusives though.

Nah. I only got a PS4 this year, and that was because my sister was like "you want my PS4? I never play it." So...

I play mostly on PC and Switch. If I'm going to spend $500, I'd rather spend it on a new video card, though my current card is handling things well enough.

I don't care if it is ugly as long as first gen will have first jailbreak. The looking isn't perfect anyway. I don't complaint as long as it is powerful, and PC-alike and I am going for it!

And slim will have a very looooong time to get jailbreak. And I don't liked PS4 slim version to be honest but I do have it anyway. Therefore, if you can afford 70-80 dollars/euro games then go for it. :)
So by your logic you will buy expensive ugly car as long as it has powerful performance.
I do care about how the console looks. I like to display it in front of my friends.
Sony could do better. They did it before with the fat ps3 and the ps vita, both of them look visually impressive.
I have ps4 pro and it looks like a pyramid that was cut in half but I purchased it when it was cheaper.
My point is that if something is expensive it should look like something expensive.

To be honest, I do agreed with you but what can I do ? I can't resist it, lol.
