PS4 is great, and still lots of life in it. It is noticeably better in gameplay, graphics, detail and speed. Your PS3 will feel ancient and out dated if you do get a PS4. You are really the only one who can decide though. Look at the games out for PS4, are they games you want to play? Also if you want to get into VR, PS4 is the cheapest solution for that. Still pricey, but cheaper then Occulus Rift and HTC Vive.

you might want to hold of just a bit longer. There are rumors of a PS4.5. It is supposed to be 4K compatible. I know you probably don't need 4K but there is nothing worse then buying a piece of tech only to have a updated model come out a month or two later. That being said, If the rumors don't intrigue you then go for it. The PS4 has a healthy catalog now with many good games. You wont be dissapointed.

But is the ps4 not build for the better use of VR ? Because i'm not interested in VR
And will the price of the ps4.5 be higher ?

IDK, Like I say these are just rumors. The VR is 1080p so I don't know why a 4k machine would be needed. I am just going out on a limb here but I would say a more powerful machine will be more expensive. Again, if it even exists. Just giving you a bit of a heads up

Nothing has been 100% confirmed yet with PS4.5. As of now it's a couple insiders that claim it. Supposedly they're reliable. I doubt that they will raise the price but some things about what's rumored of PS4.5 concern me; chiefly that they are putting a more powerful GPU for developers to play with. Makes me wonder what that means for us with older consoles if we will be excluded from some games.

I second that about possibly waiting to hear more about the rumored "PS4.5".

With that being said, if you really don't want to wait then a PS4 has great value. In fact, it is even more valuable now than when it was released. You can buy a PS4 right now and have a fairly large library of games to play, and some of them will be cheap. Not to mention all the upcoming games. PSN also has been having a lot of awesome sales, so I think it's totally worth it.

Just make sure you play every PS3 game you can/want to if you plan on trading it in towards the PS4. PS Now isn't all that reliable.
