Stores can only offer so many offers when manufacturers aren't coming down. Plus, some have contracts with manufacturers that they won't sell products for less than a certain price. We'll see, though. I'd love to see them come down by a good $75 or so, but who knows when that will be?

Like someone above said, you can't really compare the hardware and technology in a PS4 (or Xbox One, for that matter) with a PC that is similarly priced. That said, I think PCs will always win out one way or another. They're just more practical across the board. That isn't to say that consoles...

I don't necessarily think you're getting too old to game. You're probably just more worried about other things, and you might be bored with your old games. I wouldn't toss your console; put it to the side and don't play again until you really WANT to. You might find that your burnt-out stage is...

I would imagine that it won't take long. My guess would be about five years. These tech companies are constantly coming out with new things, and each company has to keep up with the other. For example, Sony and Microsoft have to keep up with the technology from the new TVs, then they have to...

I would just keep checking online to see. Someone will offer it eventually, and it will be reasonably priced. Just make sure that you're dealing with a legit site...you know how those scammers are when it comes to electronics customers..geesh

No way. I would NEVER spend that much money on a PS4. I wouldn't pay eight grand for a PS5 if it were waved in my face tomorrow! If I were you, I would definitely wait for prices to come down. No joke!

I haven't gone through any. My BF did go through 5 Xbox 360s though, geeze! What does that say about the console??

I don't think it's a bad idea. If you want the PS4 but don't necessarily have the disposable income to spend on one, it's a good option. It would be nice to keep both, though.

I think it's up to you. If you're getting ready to replace your console anyway, I think it would be ridiculous to buy a PS3 when the PS4 is out, unless you can get a great deal on a used one or something. However, I wouldn't necessarily get rid of your PS3 if it's still in good shape; I think...

I stream Netflix through my SmartTV. I think it works better to stream it directly rather than through devices, but maybe that's just me.

I don't. My smart TV has an Internet browsing feature, but I don't use it either. I have a laptop that's always around, so I generally use that. Although the idea is nice, it just doesn't work as well in practice.

I kind of like this mentality. Our culture has become so disposable; it's like its time to trade out the old for the new once a year, which can get so expensive! The PS3 is still a nice console, as is the Xbox 360. If they still have life in them, why dispose of them right now?

That makes sense to me, Hayman...I get it. I do think that these companies want to make their products seem like something totally innovative that everyone wants and should pay top dollar for. That might be partially true, but the prices on electronics really need to start dropping. In the past...

I'm sure they are. They have to get that together as soon as possible! I'm sure they know it, though; Sony is pretty much on top of things.

There are a lot of weird things on there. I almost don't even notice them anymore, to be honest. It's just part of dealing with people from all over the place, I guess.
