Three reasons why you should avoid purchasing next generation consoles this year

GameNGuide: "Here we have put forth three reasons why it might just be a good idea to not buy any of the next generation consoles right out of the gate when they release later this year, and wait until both of their powers are completely understood and scrutinized."

Of course it's not the smartest thing to buy one this year, especially if you have a huge this-gen backlog anyway, but being one of the first is just so tempting. Also, I'm kind of bored by most recent games, a lot of games just feel like I've played them before.

one thing I did like about buying the PS3 and Wii the first year was that they had much more in terms of hardware feature than later versions. The PS3 Phat had 2 additional USB, Card/Flash Readers, and thew ability to play PS2 games, whereas with the early Wii Models had the gamecube controller slot and ability to play them.

I don't really see that happening this time around, since neither have backward support nor do they have additional feature rooted to the hardware that seem likely to be cut later.

Let me ask the author, are you buying a next gen console this year?

No? Good, then i wont have the unfortunate opportunity to play multiplayer with you.

Yes? Then STFU!!!

Hogwash

Wow, first time I have ever used that word.

Next Gen consoles are like Star Wars and beer. Same rule applies.

ALWAYS MORE

Let’s School review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "Well, this is uncanny. This school management sim bears a startling resemblance to Two Point Campus, especially when it comes to planning and decorating rooms. Be sure to add a window and a radiator, along with a plant or rubbish bin. Indeed, certain aspects are almost identical – it’s just like revisiting Two Point Campus, only something is…off. It’s the visual style that leads to the uncanny valley feeling, using a low-poly PlayStation/Saturn aesthetic. An odd choice, considering the 32-bit consoles didn’t have a great amount of management sims. The PS1 did have Theme Hospital though – with Two Point Hospital being Campus’ predecessor, so we guess we can give it a pass on its artistic intent."
