I will wait until i hear more on the console before i decide whether i think it appeals to me or not. So far i reckon it's pretty impressive tech for a next generation console (this coming from someone who doesn't do PC gaming & never will, just not my thing) but it's the games that are the consoles anchor for me, if the games are good & there is enough there that interest me then i will buy it. The gimmicks (something i am not entirely fussed about) that come with it are simply extra pudding on an expensive cake.
So far however, from what i have seen thus far, i can't see myself buying this on launch night like i did with the PS3. This will be one i will wait out on until there are enough games to justify forking out the large sum of money it will no doubt be worth.The big plus for me thus far is the estimated price tag for AU which is said to cost around $899AU dollars according to an Australian EB retailer, which is a more attractive price tag then when the PS3 was launched in my country at $1000AU dollars
Slightly off-topic, what will become of the PSN store when the PS3 eventually stops production? This may seem like a silly question as this could be years & years away, i just worry whether all the DLC i have purchased over the years (of which there is plenty) will still be usable if the PSN store was ever to shut down? Or will the PS4 simply be adding PS4 content to the PSN store that we have already? I ask this because I am an extremely old school game player that still plays The Bouncer on PS2. I tend to keep my old consoles & old games so that when i am feeling abit nostalgic i can bounce back into them
Cheers lads,
