I mean, it's not a terrible idea. I have a refurbished ps4 from GameStop and it came with a full warranty and one year through GameStop. Still running two years strong. But, also got it when not everyone had a current gem console. Plus at the time I saved like $100 USD to get a couple used games. But, there is always the chance it can mess up or break or anything, really. Now that ps4s have been out for a while you can expect the quality to be a little less in terms of used/refurbished. If you have the money just go for the new one. If you find a really good deal with warranty on a refurbished one, commit to that.

I mean I have the money for the new console, I just wanted to get a general opinion. If I get the new one there's a chance I may end up empty handed in terms of games on day 1...unless EB does another "buy console get free game" thing (they're doing It this week for the division...)

Ps4 will have games for free (albeit not great ones). Could always grab warframe to tide yourself over if need be. All in all, still not a terrible idea to grab a refurbished to get some games with it. Hope you get what you like man.

Luckily I got a bundled deal and have a free copy of the division and one paid for copy of NMS. Plus the other free PSN games. This went better than I thought it would.

Good snag. Division is better than people give it credit, and I have a few buddies who like NMS a lot.

Takes a hell of a long time to install though. Didn't even make it half way in 4 hours.

Hell yeah man, It takes a loooooong time haha
