Should I buy a Ps4?

So I'm on the off season for my college sports team so we have a lot of free time besides conditioning. I already bought a 3DS XL, beat Fire Emblem Awakening(Great gameee btw), and I finished refurbishing the interior of my Dodge Charger. Now I want to play some console games. I have a ps3, but there's nothing I want to play on it ever since I beat Ni No Kuni and I played the heck out of GTA V and other FPS. I guess it just doesn't interest me anymore.
I don't know if there are any games that I want for ps4 besides that Mordor one. Is it worth it?
P.S, I don't like Destiny. Played it for a while and it's a little TOO repetitive for me.

It's not the best time to buy a PS4 atm because the selection of games right now are meh. Unity, Gta5, Dragon Age, Shadow of Mordor, and Witcher 3 looks very promising though so if you were to buy a PS4, you'd have a decent selection around the fall season.

You should probably wait a year though so you can have a wider option of games like Final Fantasy XV and Uncharted 4. Current games would also be cheaper and maybe the console itself too.

There aren't much for either console yet, but some that are coming up down the pipeline are nice, like Bloodbourne and Silent Hills. Infamous Second Sun was really nice, it was fun playing in my hometown. Most of the cross platform stuff is good, so you could buy those too, like Alien Isolation, Assassin's Creed, etc.

This so much. Next gen is never a good choice until a couple of years after release. Though I'm interested in how Deep Down is going to turn out since I am a gigantic fan of Dragon's Dogma, and Bloodborne might be tied into the Demon's Souls universe which I'm very excited to hear.

OP get a decent PC to emulate PS2, Wii, Gamecube, and PSP games. I recommend Xenoblade, Shadow of the Colossus, SMT: Nocturne, Final Fantasy XII, Custom Robo, and this is a shot in the dark but if you like adventure puzzle games try out the Dreamfall series. PC gaming sucks yeah, but emulation is a godsend.

All games are repetitive at some point. Destiny has done a good job of keeping me occupied with plenty of stuff to do for the last month to the point where I haven't even touched CoD or any of my other PS4 games. There's not many good games for the new consoles right now though but there's Bloodborne and Lords of Fallen coming out soon for the PS4 and they look pretty fun.

Did you play
-Tales of Graces f
-Tales of Xillia
-Tales of Xillia 2
-Tales of Symphonia: Chronicles
-White Knight Chronicles 2 (It includes 1 and 2)

The only good game for PS4 I know is Destiny

Bloodborne's gonna be a sick exclusive once it comes... That's literally the reason I want one.

PS2 has a lot of jRPG/RPG games. (seems like that is what you enjoy). or explore regular DS titles on your 3ds.[/quote]
