I'm going to buy this game when I have enough money. If Beyond: Two Souls blows Heavy Rain out of the water (and I love Heavy Rain), then this is a no-brainer.
This is one of the few games for the Xbox One that I'm actually interested in, but it looks like I don't even have to buy a Xbox One to play it after all.
Sony knows better not to do this. They saw how much of a backlash Microsoft has received as a result of going down this direction. So if Sony does this, it will make them look even worse than Microsoft because they know the consequences of going down this route and yet they do it anyway.
As long as Sony makes the PS4 free of all this DRM BS that the Xbox One is going to have, then I will be more than glad to buy a PS4. But if they don't do so, then I won't buy a PS4. I plan on getting a gaming PC later on this year either way, and it will be my primary way of gaming (along with current-gen consoles, Wii U, 3DS, and the Vita) if Sony decides to stab us consumers in the back.
And it's not so much about the fact that all of this DRM BS will effect me personally, but I can't just accept paying money for something that I don't really own. What's the point of retail if the games are essentially glorified installation discs?
I will say that whatever Sony does will impact the gaming industry in some way forever. They will make history, it's just whether it will be positive or negative history is what remains to be seen. I hope it's the former.
EA tried to change the series and make it more ''mainstream'' while adding microtranscations which were bad ideas to begin with. When sales turn out to be meh, EA plays devil's advocate and kills off the series.
Considering that every Sony console has received two Gran Turismo games, it wouldn't surprise me if GT6 was released on the PS3. It would be a lot easier to improve on GT5's engine in GT6 rather than start from scratch on PS4. Not to mention it would take much longer to develop a new Gran Turismo game. Plus, the PS3 is probably going to sell like hotcakes for awhile, so this makes sense from a business standpoint.
I'll likely buy the Wii U version (after I buy a Wii U) simply because that version should be the second best version. Plus, the GamePad might add some extra and interesting gameplay elements.
I'm keeping my PS3 permanently obviously, so it's doesn't affect me too much. However, I'm likely going to be waiting awhile before buying a PS4 because it's own library is going to have to build up before I take the plunge.
While I'm excited about what could possibly be Final Fantasy XV, I'm still waiting on Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Kingdom Hearts III. Quit jumping the gun, Square Enix.
$400 would be perfect for the PS4. Hopefully, there will be enough games for it in it's early lifespan to make it start out with a bang. Let me also add that Uncharted 4 would be a PERFECT launch title!

Re: Sony Has No Plans To Release PS Vita TV In The West "At This Point"
Why keep the PS Vita TV out of the West? I believe this beauty will sell like crazy over here.
Re: Amazon Japan Reports That All PS Vita TV Pre-Orders Are Taken
Please release this in the West, Sony! My money is waiting on you!
Re: Don't Feel Blue, Below Could Come to PlayStation 4 Yet

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Think of the PS4's Hardware Design?
Looks like two slim PS2s taped together, and yet I still like it.
Re: Talking Point: Will You Still Buy the PS4 If It Treats Game Ownership Like the Xbox One?

Re: Review: Remember Me (PlayStation 3)
This looks good, but not $60 good. I might just wait for it to become cheap. It does look promising though...
Re: Basement Crawl Looks Like the Weirdest PS4 Launch Title Yet
Looks like IT has a child...
Re: Mad Dog 2: The Lost Gold Plunders the PlayStation Network Today
I have never played Mad Dog 2, so I might have to buy this.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite PlayStation Startup Sequence?
PS1 wins for sure.
Re: Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories Tell Tales on PSN
Hell yeah!

Re: Hideo Kojima Takes the Bandages off Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
I mean, come on, who didn't see this coming?
Re: Guacamelee! Wrestles with PlayStation 3 and Vita Next Month
This really looks spicy, so I might have to buy this.
Re: Talking Point: Has the PS4's Lack of Backward Compatibility Affected Your PS3 Purchases?
I'm not planning on buying a PS4 anytime soon, so it doesn't affect my purchases of PS3 games at all.
Re: Rumour: Final Fantasy XV Is Exclusive to the PS4, Sony Is Contributing to Development
Somehow, I'm not surprised...
Re: Store Update: 19th March 2013 (North America)
Nun Attack? Color me interested.
Re: Store Update: 5th March 2013 (North America)
Gotta get Tomb Raider once I have the money!
Re: Capcom Finds Lost Planet 3's Box Art and Release Date
Is the Lost Planet series honestly any good? I have heard mixed things about those games...
Re: Rumour: Dead Space 4 Dismembered Following Dismal Sales
EA tried to change the series and make it more ''mainstream'' while adding microtranscations which were bad ideas to begin with. When sales turn out to be meh, EA plays devil's advocate and kills off the series.
Am I the only one seeing the hypocrisy here?
Re: Preview: Sailing the Seven Seas in the Seamless Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Holy sh*t, this game looks amazing! Do want.
Re: Beyond: Two Souls Launches in October, Stars Willem Dafoe
Goodbye wallet!
Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Departs on 29th October
Ubisoft is going to help increase PS4 sales if they keep this up!
Re: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Features 60 Minutes of Exclusive Content on PS3
Well, at least I know which version of this game to buy.
Re: Plants vs. Zombies Commences Battle on PS Plus This Week
I'm probably one of the very few gamers who has never played Plants vs. Zombies but owns a Vita, so this is actually good in my case.
Re: Rumour: Sony Suggests Gran Turismo 6 Is Coming to PS3

I finally get to play Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix! Take my money again, Square Enix!
Re: Ubisoft: Watch_Dogs Will Be More Immersive on PlayStation 4
D*mn you, Ubisoft! Are you trying to make me buy a PS4 at launch?
Re: No, PlayStation Vita's Not Getting a Price Cut in North America
Considering how well designed and powerful the Vita is, $250 is more than reasonable. Now the memory cards on the other hand...
Re: Mass Effect 3, Dead or Alive 5, and More Free on EU PS Plus
It's official, the US branch of Sony hates us.
Re: Watch_Dogs Announced as a PS4 Launch Title
I'll likely buy the Wii U version (after I buy a Wii U) simply because that version should be the second best version. Plus, the GamePad might add some extra and interesting gameplay elements.
Re: PlayStation 4 Will Support 4K Resolution, Just Not for Games
Cool, because I like to keep my 1080i HDTV, you know.
Re: Your PlayStation Network Games Won't Work on PlayStation 4
I'm keeping my PS3 permanently obviously, so it's doesn't affect me too much. However, I'm likely going to be waiting awhile before buying a PS4 because it's own library is going to have to build up before I take the plunge.
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Stalks PlayStation 4 in 2014
Now I have a very good reason to buy a PS4.
Re: New Final Fantasy Title to Be Revealed at E3 2013
While I'm excited about what could possibly be Final Fantasy XV, I'm still waiting on Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Kingdom Hearts III. Quit jumping the gun, Square Enix.
Re: Talking Point: Who Will Be Responsible for Revealing the PlayStation 4?
It will be Tretton-sama obviously.
Re: Bungie Deploys Destiny Details, Plots PlayStation 3 Debut
This is probably the most interesting concept for a game in quite awhile. Count me interested.
Re: Hunker Down with This Resident Evil: Revelations Footage
@Savino Yeah, I'm probably going to buy the Wii U version instead of the PS3 version. I still need to get a Wii U first though...
Re: Talking Point: What Will the Next PlayStation Be Called?
PlsyStation 4 because it would make sense to name it that.
Re: Sweet Tooth Celebrates Birthday with Twisted Metal Bundle
Nice, too bad I can't get the bundle since I already have Twisted Metal 2. I'm still thinking about downloading the others though.
Re: Sony Honours Dedicated Trophy Hunters with Congratulations
Earning Platinums are not easy. So far, I have only earned one (Gravity Rush). Nice to see Sony going out of their way to congratulate gamers.

Oh sweet, well that's another Wii U game that I can buy on my PS3 instead!
Re: Feature: Five Mistakes That the PlayStation 4 Must Avoid
$400 would be perfect for the PS4. Hopefully, there will be enough games for it in it's early lifespan to make it start out with a bang. Let me also add that Uncharted 4 would be a PERFECT launch title!
