Will Physint being an Xbox title affect your next-gen console choice?

[NateDog]

Sony's decisions in general are the determining factor rather than this in isolation for me. A console with no disc drive or discs is pretty much a no-go for me, so if I am to continue gaming, it'll likely be through building a PC. I almost did it about 10 years ago, had most of the parts and was being guided by someone but felt it was getting too expensive towards the end so I backed out. How foolish I was looking at parts now. Still, I'll likely just keep an eye on prices and try jump on deals here and there over the course of a year or so and try to make it work that way.

I agree with you on the Sony bs wholeheartedly...but I do think that Physint would have been a must-play exclusive for me and I would have probably felt the need to figure out a way to play it, be that through buying a secondhand PS6 down the line or some other means.

Also, whether or not the cancellation itself was the final nail in the coffin of whether I buy a PlayStation, on the flip side it does potentially mean I may actually buy an Xbox-do their exclusives launch on Windows on the same day usually or no?

I just can't see myself going near Xbox again. They are trying to turn things around but it's all still far too messy for my liking, and they've had a lot of projects with a lot of potential in recent years and we've seen a lot of them falling into oblivion with teams and staff being gutted. I'm not that sure I fully believe just yet that this will definitely go where it looks like it is headed currently.

On paper? Yeah, I've felt the same way for a long time, especially now with my work hours, commuting and being a family man father. But it's hard for me to entertain the idea of having a console to just play digital games, it just feels wrong and stupid really. I'm likely to go the same way as Wayno, stick with Nintendo as long as they respect the desires of people for physical media (then again GKCs might suggest it won't last too long) and maybe just keep adding to my now retro collection of things I've never played before but wanted to.
