Definitely looks better than the original PS3.

All I see is a black window with the caption "Configuring player" below it, no matter what scripts I allow.  I'm so sick of these pages wanting me to allow 17 different domains at once.

I'm trying to figure out if I should hang on to my PS4 pre-order or not. I placed it on Amazon on June 10 (the day the price was announced and the pre-orders went up), but there's no way I'll have the money when it comes out. But is the system going to be scarce enough at launch to allow me to take advantage of having an early-placed pre-order?

Do you really even want one? Why not wait a year or more? The launch period is like the worst in a console's lifespan.

I'm definitely not getting it at launch. I was just wondering about the scarcity of the console at launch. I checked the Amazon page, and they're still taking orders, so I guess it's still not sold out. The Xbox One Day One edition is though (but not the regular version).

My thought exactly.  A year should just about do it.  Stock won't be an issue, games will be piling up, and the systems will have some history, so deciding on one will be much easier.  The current gen should overlap about that long too.

GTAV will help with that. :P
