Just preordered mine. Only place I could do it was Gamestop. Everywhere else: Futureshop, Best Buy, etc. was sold out.

And it also helps Sony's situation that their direct competitor made an expensive, clusterfuck of a console with hardly any redeeming qualities except Halo (if you even like that, which I'm not alone in not caring about).

Edit: Oh, and anecdotal, but when I was in GS THREE more people came in and ordered PS4s!!! Girl that helped me s...

Citation needed. As far as myself or anyone in the industry has heard, they're using 1.6ghz Jaguars just like Sony's as part of the APU package. The GPU component in Sony's machine trumps the Xbone one though.

Still can't order off Amazon in Canada. Might have to hit up a Best Buy or Gamestop, God forbid, to make sure I get one at launch.

I don't think that they'll let MS launch first again. I'm betting October, and MS launches 2 weeks after in November.

4644d ago 2 agree2 disagreeView comment

Yes. I'm hoping late September, early October. Gives them more time to build a crushing wave of momentum against that which shall not be named.

They'll drop some exclusive bombs at Gamescom and TGS for sure. They only showed 5 out of 20 (or was it 30, think it was 30) 1st party exclusives in development. And 12 are new IPs if I recall.

I called this last week. Still doesn't make smartdevice games any more palatable, but if it gets implemented as a standard, its a start.

Pretty sure it's coming to PC too. Read that somewhere today.

And even if you didn't pay your iPhone bill and your service was cut off, any non-online apps would still function. Apps that you likely paid $0.99 for. So two big distinctions: price and availability. Down M is a lunatic. I can't believe how far these execs have their heads up their own asses.

The Xbone diehards are flailing for dear life. Expect more articles like this from more bottom-feeding sites.

What an idiot. Sony already strongly intimated that they are making a profit at $399. Additionally, their stock holders wouldn't allow them to take another bath like the PS3.

Hush you peasant! You have a new trailer to tide you over for 7 more years!In the meantime get ready for Hope Crysallis XVIII 1-6! Emo Chronicles.

Honestly though, I am pretty excited about XV. Let's hope they can pull it off. This generation, that is. I would like to think that this new generation is an opportunity for publishers to atone for the mistakes of the past. I'll be cautiously optimistic on this.

Holy crap every single multiplat except CoD is the PS4 SKU. Talk about a role reversal. Cheaper system, more power, better multiplats. What's not to like?

I'll bite. Trolls need to be fed, after all. Serious question - do answer while that 2nd bubble remains. How many of those "games" of yours will be out for launch? How many of them were spotty trailers with no real indication of gameplay? How many were multiplat? The list gets real short once you factor in all the facts. And how short is your memory that you've forgotten Sony showed off 4 launch window exclusives at the PS Meeting in Feb? KZ, Drive Club, Knack, Infamous SS. ...

Ha! I thought that they no longer wanted to be perceived as "evil". That lasted what? A day. Guess what? I can charge $1000 for a steaming pile of my you-know-what, doesn't mean people are going to pay. Social media is going a long way in making consumer voices heard. Big business better beware - video-games in this instance.

Xbox fanatics need something to cling to. Let them have their delusions.

All this means is certain greedy publishers (EA) might try some online pass bullshit again. Nothing changes between the PS3 and PS4 ecosystem for used games. We will see a lot more "online" style games - every publisher had one or two as at E3 - which is a sligtly less annoying way to claw at the same issue. At least people who play MMORPGs are used to the concept of buy once, buy forever.

Nice to hear that SP games remain the same (on PS4).

@newmonday I do hope that was sarcasm. I won't be purchasing an Xbone, ever. I learned my lesson when the 360 lured me in with their JRPG "extravaganza", which turned out to be one great game (Lost Odyssey) and a bunch of stuff that went multiplat. Jumped out in 2011 or so and won't ever go back to MS. As an educated consumer I can't abide by their ethics or practices either. They're a deplorable company.

All these naysayers better hope that the last of these next-gen consoles (PS4/ Xbone) sell like shit, because they're certainly talking a lot of trash based on next to nothing. The last console generation cumulatively sold more than any previous one. Of course sales have been steadily declining (see this crap article for reference), that's what happens when a generation goes on 2-3 years longer than people have come to historically expect.

This will be a massive gener...

@NBT Better specs across the board and a clear power advantage for the PS4, and one version will look a 'little' nicer? I bet the PS4 version looks significantly nicer, from higher resolution to better lighting, textures and effects. The Digital Foundry comparisons are going to be some sweet vengeance for PS fans this gen.

Edit: And yes, I imagine KH3 will be multi as well. I am willing to bet that both XV and KH3 are exclusive in Japan though. Especially considering...
