Not because of the consoles themselves, but because I'm trying to quit video games to focus on reading and writing. I think, however, if I was going to get one, I would get a PS4, but would probably wait a while as I expect it to have quite a hefty price-tag.
Save the money on the PS4, and think about how many great games you could buy (or rent) with that money. The consoles themselves really aren't worth it this time around (you'd have to pay a massive price just to PLAY any of the games on it, then spend the price on the games). If it was a PS2, or an Xbox360: you have enough games available to you, at a cheap-enough pricepoint to justify their purchase. Maybe.
Or maybe you're some psycho-horder like me, and you just have to have anything you like ^_^

How about that backwards compatibility they removed from the PS3 to effectively make it worthless?
Or the whole "you cannot install linux on this and use it as a server" move?Good times, right?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
