[QUOTE="The_Last_Ride"][QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="The_Last_Ride"]But it's the first one i have ever been able to afford at launch 

mitu123

Same for me, and what's shocking is that it's 2 consoles.

I could had gotten the 20GB PS3 at launch but I wouldn't had enough in the long run when it comes to games so I had to drop it, not to mention how terrible the PS3 launch was, heck Xbox 360's was way, way better.

i didn't plan on getting anything next gen at that point. I wanted a ps3, but 1200 which it did cost back when i wanted to buy it was just too much. So my brother bought the 360 

That was a great choice back then.:P

hell yeah... I don't know if i would be able to afford any games for it

pre ordering is kind of stupid to be honest, but i make the new gen an exceptionThe_Last_Ride
Not sure how its stupid, but I will say that I do prefer waiting to get the game or order it the day it comes out, feels good waiting for the anticipation! But then again, even if you pre-order you still won't get the game until the set date its coming to stores, so I'm not really seeing any difference.

Having enough money always appears to be a troubling issue for many people, especially in this day and age.

It is more wise to wait and see some reviews and gameplay

I never pay attention to and rea reviews. :P If I get a game and like it, good! If I get a game and don't like it... well I just hope its something many others don't like as well. :P

I rarely read over whole reviews of games before I buy them myself. But most games I buy are games I safely assume that I would like.

I still do research on them a bit, but I just don't really read through whole reviews of them.

I do usually. I tend to get them earliest a week after release. The only games i really got in the launch week this year is Tomb Raider. It's my GOTY and i don't regret it

i think it's wiser, besides you can get it cheaper and dlc when you buy it at a later point. So it's a win-win.

the console war is pretty close right now. thought the title of this thread is no longer accurate since the new xbox is outselling the other 2 consoles.

I have a Wii U. I also have a 3DS, which technically counts. Also, wouldn't it be called "current gen" now that they are all out?

still think it should be done anyway. unless you are planning on just letting this place go, in which case, then we wouldn't need to change it.

I got Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze the day after it came out and overall, I enjoyed it more than Donkey Kong Country Returns. I liked Dixie as a secondary character.

I got Mario Kart 8 on release day, and it's probably my favorite Mario Kart game yet.
