My wallet won, for now.
I was expecting this year's E3 to convince me to purchase an XBOX One and Playstation 4, but the lack of first party titles I must play as soon as they're released only supported my decision to upgrade my PC earlier this year.
Halo Collection looks nice, but not a system seller. Sunset Overdrive looks repetitive, Quantum Break will probably find its way to PC sooner or later, Crackdown is a 2016 game, likewise Gears of war 4, Platinum Games' Scalebound is probably late 2015, and so is Halo: Guardians.
Uncharted: A Thief's End is probably late 2015, DriveClub looks nice but not a system seller in my eyes, and The Order: 1886 looks beautiful, but the emphasis on QTEs is a turn-off.
I was hoping for a reason to purchase one console this fall, and another next spring/summer, but since most games I'm interested in will also launch on PC, all I need is a decent gamepad and I'm set.
I'll probably buy the consoles late 2015-early 2016, for less money and with new first party titles, and old ones for cheap.
