People are still buying consoles with high failure rates? Hmmm....

We have a Wii U already. We play all the Mario Karts. I was mostly joking as I really want the Master Chief collection, but she is a PS4 player. I just hate the idea of getting a PS4 when none of the PS2-3 games I have won't work on it.

Just invest in a Gen1 PS3 and upgrade the hard drive if you are going to get a PS4.

That way you have 99% backwards compatibility with PS2 games. Shouldn't cost you too much.

Double dash is the best TBH. Play no other. Only Double Dash.

live in the moment, blow your $ on fun stuff, don't worry. responsibility is overrated and who really needs a stupid thing called "emergency savings" anyways?! there's always welfare when push comes to shove and maybe mom and dad can help out too!

MAAAAAAAN

DONT BE STUPID!

Dont move in with your GF.
Make a budget and stick to it!!!
Save up at least $1000 for immediate emergencies (tire blows, ac breaks etc...) that you do not ever touch unless something bad happens (something will, trust me. google murpy's law.)

if you use part of that $1000 for something, replenish asap. A budget and an emergency fund is the #1 protection from dept.

Stop blowing cash until you have that in place. (edit: rephrase: STOP BLOWING CASH PERIOD) Then set up a long term emergency fund that should be about 6 months worth your living expenses. that's for protection of sudden unemployment.

Grow up. Once you are financially responsible by yourself, you may think about moving in with someone. Just be aware that "moving in together" isnt something you do on the fly. thats a major life change!

cheers and good luck!

why don't you just xBone?

You are better off saving, Xbox doesn't have great exclusives.

Why would you buy Xbox? they are such trash.

Buy a PS4. Then your girlfriend will move in with you. If she's not a gamer, she'll do it for Little Big Planet. If she is, she'll do it for The Last of Us HD. Win win.

WiiU is another option there. Great party games, great first party titles, and lots of fun trolly co-op play.

See, we'll have to agree to disagree there. There's a grand total of one game on the Wii-U that I want to play, and there's only one more that's been announced that I'm even remotely interested in. So I dunno if I'd call two games an option from my perspective.

I disagree with all of those except Xeno X(and the virtual console but I still have my SNES so its useless to me). The other game on the list for me is Monster Hunter. So Monster Hunter and eventually Xeno X - not enough to justify a purchase for me.

This is why I said we'll have to agree to disagree. Please stop assuming you can speak for everyone when saying what is fun or good. I disagree with you. That doesn't make you wrong, it just makes me not like the same stuff you do. None of those games appeal to me. Hyrule Warriors might be a fun diversion for an hour, but I don't feel like I'm missing anything by playing Samurai Warriors in stead of it.
