I felt like posting a new blog, so why not a few collection pics? Anyway, these are only my physical games and I own numerous downloaded titles for each as well.

That is a pretty significant collection of Xbox One games.  I currently only have 4 physical PS4 games and a handful of downloadables.

I'll be getting a PS4 soon. I opted for XBox One first since it had way better exclusives. Plus, after playing both I don't think the graphical difference is as vast as some claim. As for my XBox One download games, I pretty much have all of them that never came out on disc. I simply love Powerstar Golf. Im not a golf fan, but that game is too much fun, esp in local multiplayer.

In a couple of years when the Xbox One has a larger selection of exclusives I can definitely see myself picking one up at that point.  For now I will be satisfied with my PS4.  I do want a Wii U though.  Nintendo always seems to have enough exclusives to warrant a purchase of any of their consoles.

that IS a lot of Xbone games.  I envision picking one up eventually, but I think i will get a PS4 first.

Seriously, the name is something Sony fanboys use. Fanboys cannot be taken serious. Microsoft actually listened to their consumers after the backlash and is trying to turn things around. With that said, Sony only has 2 exclusive that are of interest to me. Those are Killzone, and Drive Club. I haven't played much of the PS4 Killzone yet, but from what I played, its not as good as 3. As for Drive Club, who knows when that will hit. Sony simply has a very weak lineup of exclusives.

I use the term Xbone because it's easy to write.  I'm lazy. it is used by people who are not fanboys.  it only offends fanboys. 

Ps4 exclusives are pretty bare, but if I compare xbox 360 to ps3, sony has a better track record of making exclusives I like.  Sony has built up more goodwill with me on that and other reasons, so that's why I lean towards them.  I would love to play TItanfall, but it's not enough for me to buy a system, let alone the game itself as I am sick of military/scifi shooters in general. 

Microsoft pisses us off daily in this house with Windows 8.  It is not a  brand we love.  That being said the past two xboxes have been good machines.  But I don't need or want a kinect. 

But honestly, I bought a Wii U for xmas instead of either of these machines and was very happy.

Trust me, im no XBox fanboy. I've been a long time Sony supporter since the early PS1 days and own 1000s of games for their systems. I fully agree that Microsoft has made major mistakes with the XBox One. However their really trying to fix them. As for the Windows 8 thing, I actually happen to like it a lot, although I wasn't too happy when I lost everything in my PC to put it in. Still, I really don't want to take it out on game developers who make great games just because I don't like the suits who pay them. Its like EA. I hate EA as a company for some of the things they've done. However they have some great people making great games who probably hate what their bosses are doing more then me.

As for the Kinect, I was actually a big fan of the original Kinect, but this one is a let down. Im mainly upset that there really isn't anything on it to play aside from dance or fitness games, and a single mediocre looking fighter. Kinect Sports however looks darn good and I was a big fan of the last two. I think the Kinect should have been optional.

yeah I feel the same way.  I'm not going to put my full trust or get emotionally involved with any of these companies, because they certainly don't care about or trust me.  I'd be happy to have the new Xbox, and I'd be happy to have the PS4.  Eventually, I hope to have both. 

I feel the same way you do about the Kinect.  It should have been optional.  I understand what Microsoft is trying to do, and get a leg up in the living room, but I think they're depending on the wrong tech. I don't know how people in the future will interact with their tv's /main computer/entertainment system, but it's not going to be Kinect, despite some of its advantages.  I'm curious to see Amazon's coming set top box and see what they do.  I know Valve isn't really in that market, but I look at how they're trying to innovate with their controller, and I respect that.  It's going to take new ideas to tackle that sort of interface, and I feel the Kinect and motion controls are old ideas now.  But who knows, I could be wrong!  Laughing

I haven't got a must have game to make me get a PS4 or X1 yet, but I'd like to pick up a Wii-U sometime soon. Pikmin 3 is a must-have for me, but there's nothing else that peaks my interest as much for that system, so I'm still waiting.

I like the Wii U a lot. The system has tons of potential. Its just sad its only being realized after the systems been out this long.

Nice collection of games.  I don't have any games for the new systems yet.  I'll probably get a Wii U before I get a XB1 or PS4 (mainly b/c of price).  The next system I get this year will more than likely be a Vita.

Phantasystar77

Vita is good, but I don't like it nearly as much as my 3DS. As for Wii U, I highly reccomend it. Ignore what most of its critics say. Yes it is a little lacking in the exclusives dept, but im sure that will change if it gets more buyers. Hopefully stuff like Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros, and Bayonetta 2 will help sell a lot more systems.

Yeah, I bought a 3DS a few months ago.  It's great.  I currently own 1 game for the Vita and I need a Vita to play it on.  There are a few more games I would also like to get for it.  I want to get a Wii U for it's exclusives.  The only reason I don't own one right now is price.  I'll probably pick up one next year. 

I plan to get a Kinect soon.  They're about $40.  Any suggestions for Kinect games?  I'm told there aren't many good ones.

Well the Kinect Sports games are some of the best. Kinect Adventures is really fun, as is Kinect Disney. I only got Fable the Journey recently (I won it off a Microsoft survey) but it seems really good. The Gunstringer is also another great one. Don't forget the Wavy Tubman Chronicles dlc for that one. Its free, plays nothing like its base game, and its sure to give you a good laugh if you've ever played Mad Dog Mc Cree. Dance Central is pretty fun if you like dance games. Im not really a fan of the genre, but its a good time with friends. Kinect Star Wars is pretty hit and miss. Some modes are good, others not. Sonic Free Riders is fun, but it controls a little wierd. Child of Eden can be played with the pad, but I think its more fun with Kinect. Anyway, if there's one game to stay away from its Steel Battalion. It mixes using the pad with the Kinect and it controls really poorly. I also played a demo to Kinect Rush and really enjoyed that, so I plan on buying the full version at some point.

Awesome.  Thanks for the info.  I knew you'd recommend some good Kinect games.  I forgot that Fable game was for Kinect and I actually have a strategy guide for it. Laughing

Thats a good looking collection you got there I take it your not a fan of Sony but I have always been curious about the Wii U .

Phantasystar77

03/29/2014 at 12:40 PM

Why do you say im not a fan of Sony? I own a PS1, PS2, three PS3s, two PSP 3000s, a PSP Go, and a Vita. Im also going to be getting a PS4 very soon. Between the systems I own 1000s of games. The pics I show here are just a small part of my game collection.

and thus the collection spreads to a new generation. I'd offer to take my picks to relieve you of your gaming burden but I've yet to get any of those systems. For now....
