I am leaving it up to you lot to convince me NOT to buy one!

There's a good deal on Very at the moment and I can easily pay it off before the interest free period ends.

It's my birthday soon.

I want it.......

Ok, so I have an xbox 360 and a pretty decent laptop that I play Sims 3 on......but I really really want it!

If no one replies by this time tomorrow I will buy it and hold all MN responsible Grin

Do it!
I got DP one last month and it's amazing Wink

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 00:28

Phew.

I saw there was a response and thought I was going to have to not buy one.

But you gave me the right answer Wink

(Luckily DH is totally on board with my decision thinking on this one!)

Yes!! I thought I'd regret buying it, but we have so much fun on it and there's so much you can do.

itsbetterthanabox · 10/09/2014 00:40

Don't do it!
Get a PS4 instead Grin way better.

Zazzles007 · 10/09/2014 03:56

I know! I want a PS4, but can't afford it right now. There aren't many games for the PS4 yet either, and loads on the PS3 I still haven't played. But I applaud any woman who wants to get a console, irrespective of the brand. More women in gaming = GOOD!!!

TessTackle · 10/09/2014 09:31

Betterthan, we were so torn between the one and the ps4. I really want to play The last Of Us on it. Been watching some amazing streams on twitch.

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 11:45

I would only get the PS4 for The Last Of Us. I've still got an xbox 360 and I don't think I could cope wintry two different control pads!

I've got a lotto ticket for tonight though so who knows!

I love that not one of you is giving me Hmm face about wanting a new console. I love gaming - even if I'm rubbish at it!

TessTackle · 10/09/2014 11:48

I'm absolutely rubbish too Grin

gamerchick · 10/09/2014 11:50

I'm being forced to get one but don't need it till March so holding off until work bonus comes through.

They're 350 quid in currys atm.

gamerchick · 10/09/2014 11:52

So yes totally do it Grin

wantacatplease · 10/09/2014 11:54

We want one for Christmas for us the dc's but worried we won't be able to afford it in time. WHY do they have to be SO MUCH?! Please buy one OP, so I can live vicariously through you.

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 12:48

We'll I can't possibly disappoint now, can I?!

Wanta - do try Very, they aren't more expensive on there and they're interest free for a year if you're like me and can't resist

I got mine from very too. And they have discounts off your first order.

FlyntCoal · 10/09/2014 13:29

I've only not bought a new gen console as I can't chose between the two! I want ps4 for last of us and infamous, I want xbone for halo and sunset overdrive.prices are coming,down so much though, I'm watching them slip down around £300 now. I use hotukdeals app, so many people posting deals. I'm going to hold out til Christmas.... I hope. I just got destiny on ps3 so that'll keep me busy a while!

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 14:18

I bought it!!!! Delivery for Friday which is my day off - sorry kids, mummy's busy this weekend!

TessTackle · 10/09/2014 14:51

How exciting! Are you getting bf4?

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 15:50

I'm not sure tbh. I haven't played any of the others so I might get one for th e360 first to see if I like it before dropping the big bucks!

This offer comes with Destiny so I'm looking forward to that. I can't wait for Tom Clancys The Division which will come out some time next year.

MINECRAFT IS NOW AVAILABLE ON THE ONE

and if you have it on a 360 profile you can download for an extra few quid NOT the whole new game price WineWineWine

Snatchoo · 10/09/2014 17:35

(Haven't paid off mine yet greyhound Blush)

I think the Lego games are brilliant for younger children although I confess I don't know if they are available for xbox one.

OP posts:
wantacatplease · 10/09/2014 18:23

Ok so I MIGHT be looking at the ones on Very. (ahem) Is it necessary to get a kinect to make it as awesome as possible or is it still great without one?

FiloFunky · 10/09/2014 18:32

Do the one systems come without the kinect now??

I love mine! Xbox on. Xbox watch tv. Xbox make me supper.... Wink Ok maybe not the last one. But I do find it useful!!

wantacatplease · 10/09/2014 18:34

I dunno, but it seems that when it's advertised as "With a Kinect" it jumps up nearly £100.?

FiloFunky · 10/09/2014 18:35

I wouldn't be without mine. We got day one console Blush and it wasn't optional. It's far superior to the 360 one
