Definitely not. I love voice controls and the camera.

You'll have to excuse Grizz's comments... he's on Sony's bandwagon although he doesn't actually own the system.

I bought my PS4 about 2 months ago based on his sales thread info. The PS4 is the top selling system so it has to be the best!!!!

That's why I bought a Kia instead of a Ferrari too... because Kia sells more cars so it's obviously the better car.

Kinda contradictory statements. Do you have to own a Ferrari to realize its better than a Kia?

No idea what you are talking about. Kia sells more than Ferrari so therefore it must be the better car...

That's exactly what you say every time we read your "PS4 is the best selling console" spam.... And now you've started slamming XB1 talking about Mario Kart and the Wii U and the "disaster" that was Kinect.

Nobody cares man... But yet you continuously post sales threads and bar graphs and you don't even own a PS4.

A little too cerebral for you.

The Wii U is really going to start hitting it stride with the launch of Mario Kart 8 at the end of this month. I'll be on-line ready to race then if you've got the guts.

Only if you promise to not start posting Wii U/Mario Kart sales threads.

LOL, that's what it's all about, baby.

The Wii U is turning out to be a good financial deal for me. I purchased my black 32 GB model that came bundled with New Super Mario Bros. U and Luigi U for just $250. Since I purchased it online I didn't have to pay tax or shipping which could have been a substantial amount of money. Today I took the pack-in game to GameStop and traded it towards Mario Kart 8 which yielded $36.40 in trade in credit. I'm horrible at 2Dish platformers so I really didn't mind parting with the games (which were both on one disk). So paying the difference for MK8 means that my console and copy of the game are only costing me a grand total of $241.24 which I'm very happy with.

Sounds like a good deal.

After I pick up a copy we'll meet up online... After I play the game a few days to get a feel of the tracks.

Take all the time you need old timer because you're about to get schooled by a real gamer.
