I would normally agree, and in the end would probably not end up getting it on the PS4 for this reason.
I'll probably only end up getting Watch Dogs and Killzone instead now that I think about it lol

If I decide to keep my launch-day PS4, I'm probably just going to play the free Drive Club for a bit. I don't have a lot of interest in the launch titles, which is why I'm veering toward selling the system if I can make at least 100 bucks. If not, I'll just keep it and wait. I might change my mind after the reviews come in.
I put in my preorder for Killzone, since I presume it will have a larger (non-coop) online component that will be fun to play while the game is new. I plan on picking up WD after the first price drop or when I get tired of KZ, whichever comes first.
With the way Sony has handled GTA 5 launch I still don't have faith in PSN. I've never been a fan other then value nothing they have done since announcing the PS4 has impressed me in regards to PSN.

Tuco: Yeah, sounds like a publisher problem.
That is quite the mass production capability if they get that many out by the end of the year. No one has sold anywhere near that many on launch before, iirc.

Xbox didn't have preloading, in fact you cant even purchase it on their store I believe.

looks like 500-600K is about the tops for launch in North America, although the timeframes on this chart are all different

Playstation 1 - 500K in 1st weekend
Dreamcast - 500K in 2 weeks
Xbox - 600K "shipped" for launch
Wii - 600K sold in first 8 days
So really, no one has even touched 1 million in any 1 region for a launch window. The original Playstation sold 1 million units worldwide in the first 10 days.
I don't know if I believe that Sony can pull of 5 million by the end of the year. Not unless they've already been producing these things for 6+ months for a HUGE stockpile.
EDIT - IGN reporting that Sony stated 5 million units by March 2014(fiscal 2013)...that seems a little more doable, but still a big number

I'm wondering why they didn't just flood the market from the get go. They said they are holding back some stock for launch day or something. But most people I know are getting an Xbox due to the fact that they cant get a PS4 on launch day..
How the fuck is that the dumbest excuse ever? Both consoles are pretty much the same. I'd much rather get an Xbox then wait 2-3 months for a PS4, which is what they said the wait would be where I'm from. In 2-3 months I, along with most of my friends, could buy another one anyway. Us in the same situation would = me playing a next gen console for 2-3 months and you not. Who wins? Me. So kindly fuck off and stop saying stupid shit. I apologize for having disposable income. Actually no I don't.
