Should i buy myself a ps4 for x-mas?

29 Comments

So my brother and I are gonna buy a PS4 at some point. Currently Walmart has this AMAZING bundle that includes the system, 2 controllers, and a game of our choice for 474. This is roughly a $520 value. So we think it's a good time to buy. Now my parents don't like our spending all that much. They don't see the "why we need it" factor (especially for the ps4). Now if my parents do say no, is it a good idea to buy the ps4 and the accessories we need for Christmas. Now the kicker is is that we would sneak down on Christmas night and put the PS4 under the tree so that my parents will have NO clue how it got there. The only risk is that they'll say absolutely not and tell us to return it. This chance is low. Maybe 20% chance they'd do say return it. Is this a great idea or no?

Yes! That's a good idea	20
No! Horrible idea	12

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

They won't know how it got there? How gullible do you think they are? :P

    Damn. If I did that, the chance of my parents forcing me to return it is 110%.

      Same, if I didn't return it, they'd probably return it for me.

You buy the console for your brother. Your brother buys the games and accessories for you. Your parents have pride that their children bought decent Christmas gifts for one another. Everybody wins.

(Black Friday is after Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday is next week. Expect deals).

        It had co op, good game play and beautiful environments as long as it as good as last farcry.
        
        Which is more than what I can say about other current GEN games

Those things are made by the Japanese. They may have lost the war, but now they build those things to enslave our minds and turn us into Zombies.
Haven't you been reading all the warnings against using both the PS3 & PS4? Hell, they are illegal in two states right now and 6 more are trying to pass legislation before Christmas. Don't you read?
Those things are seriously DANGEROUS, be cautious.

Playstation sucks balls. Their controller feels like garbage in the hand, their systems are crap, the ONLY saving grace Sony has is its licenseing reach. The game library for the ps4 will undoubtably outnumber competitors by the time console death day comes round (ps5 release). I used to love my ps2. Then I got an xbox 360 and never looked back. For online console gaming, there's NOTHING better. Besides the Xbox one (save the disk drive bugs)

Providing it's your money, not your parents, then spend it on whatever the fuck you want - why are you asking us?

The PS4 is a really good system, it's a lot better than the Xbox One.

  I don't see a reason to own any of them. Not for $500 anyway. None of the games are any better than the ones on PS3/360.

    I actually play most games on the PC but I bought a PS4 and an Xbox one and I only played on the Xbox one 3 times, it is such a rubbish console and it was more expensive than my playstation.

Sure. As long as the two of you are the ones paying for it, then what's wrong with treating yourself with something nice every now and then?
