    Put a grand aside last year. Looks like I'll only be needing half that now. Unless M$ took a shot to the conscience after the Sony con. But then again I do like having both consoles. Hmmm.

    My money is already saved in my savings account ready to give to Sony. Looking forward to using my mum's 10% discount card at Tesco too :D

    Wonder if us GAME employees are allowed it before release, like we was with the Wii U - a whole 3 days early:p

    Either way, staff discount:D

    As I only use my PS3 for playing Tiger Woods and watching videos I'll probably stick it out for a while. Having an even more photo realistic Augusta sounds good but not £400 good ;)

    I've been a late comer to every generation of console ever released, mainly due to money. I think the closest I ever came was the PS2 which I bought together with a house mate in October 2001. I'm sure we only paid about £200 for it - that sounds too low though . . . .

    I got a bargain on my PS3 in 2010 - the 120gb slimline + Black Ops (release week) for £190.

    I am just going to put money away monthly...........Easy!, lol.

    I'll be keeping the 360 for games like GTA V and Batman Arkham Origins, also games will be stacking up with the 2 free games monthly.

    I will be waiting about 2 years after release before I get one. By then I hope to have the money for it saved up. If not, prostitution.

    Buy the PS4, put aside a little bit every month so I can buy the best Nvidia 800 series I can when they come out. After flip flopping over what I was going to do this is my final decision. Will definitely get a Wii U sometime in the the next few years when there is a 3D Mario worth caring about, Zelda, Metroid etc.

    Will just dip into the bank account. I don't tend to live on the breadline so always have something saved up.

    I've changed my mind from the logical answer i gave already earlier

    Instead i'm going to call all my closest buddies and form a plan to covertly steals a batch and when that goes wrong we'll just steal the container from the truck carrying the PS4s by attaching some cables and driving it through the streets, crashing into every cop that tries to stop us

    Already have the money available, but i won't buy on release day as nothing interests me gamewise plus with GTA 5 coming out soon that'll keep me busy for awhile.
