@bruhaha: Dang, didn't think black friday deals would get that crazy. I'd rather hold off and think about it if I'm gonna spend the same money out of pocket then. Thanks for the heads up!
I'm console only, no interest in the future of getting a serious PC. I don't play much multiplayer with my friends, I mostly either play single player or random matches of multiplayer games. The exclusives aren't too big of an issue to me, I don't really care about Last of Us or Horizon, but as a big Kojima fan, I would be bummed on missing out on Death Stranding (if it even turns out to be good, or is released at all). Really, all I'm looking forward to for games is Red Dead Redemption 2, Hitman 2, Doom Eternal, maybe Battlefield V if it turns out to be decent.
I feel like if anything my biggest worry is that I'll make the switch and then a year later, Microsoft and Sony's announcements of their next gen plans will make me regret it.The Xbox One X does seem like it'll have some serious longevity, but if a PS5 that looks really impressive will be coming out in 2020, I'll feel kind of dumb.
So Gamestop is offering $250 in trade in for a launch PS4 towards an Xbox One X this week and I'm really feeling the temptation to switch. The last few months have really soured me on Sony with all the hubbub about cross play and backwards compatibility but Microsoft has really stepped their game up. I'm not crazy about PS4 exclusives, I've already played through Yakuza 6 but the rest haven't really been interesting to me, whereas Forza Horizon 4 has been calling my name. Game Pass also seems like a great deal to me as well, and I'm definitely interested in playing some older 360 titles. Not to mention, this is probably one of the last times my launch PS4 will be worth anything at all. Is it too late in this console generation for me to switch and have it be worth it? Will I be missing out on any upcoming Sony exclusives? Anyone switch to Xbox in the last year and not regret it?
