If I was forced into a camp where I have to pledge my allegiance to Nintendo, MS, or Sony, I'd would go to Sony since they've been good to me. Most of the games (before I upgraded my PC) I've played on my PS3. And had a ton of fun on it. That and while it was a fun system, I still feel burned by the Wii and the Wii U doesn't look all that great.

However, nothing about the PS4 that Sony announced has gotten my excited yet. I mean, the system isn't even backwards compatible :milk:. If I wanted to play my PS3 games, I'd still have to keep my PS3. Heck, they didn't even show off the system. No price? No system? Come on Sony! You can do better.

But eh. I know it's all about the games. Welp... Diablo 3 on the PS4? Yeah... no. Nothing shown has gotten me excited yet. Still, it won't be out till November and maybe something awesome is coming to it. And I'm not an early adopter anyways.

Battlefield 4 17 minute campaign demo as well as a look into Activision's rumored engine that will be used for Next Gen Call of Duty games have made their way on the net...
