PS is back on the thrown :)

I knew SONY would fix the problems they had with the PS3 launch.
It's good to see how well they have done.
I'm hoping my PS4 arrives now in may :)

Hoping the WiiU can bounce back and follow the sales of the PS4 and X-BoxOne.
We need competition and gamers need good games to play on their machines and I'll be buying a WiiU this year I believe :)
