Same here. I was told they were only getting 16 controllers, so I went ahead and preorder one, too. It was only an extra $5 down.
I was told they were getting 20 PS4s - my preorder was #8 and they were getting just 8 Xbox Ones with 7 already claimed.
I just got home from preordering the PS4 at GameStop. The employee there told me they are only getting 20 and I was preorder #8. I asked about the Xbox One and he said they were only getting 8 and 7 of them were already claimed.
I also preorder an extra controller - they are only getting 16 of those and I preorder Call Of Duty: Ghosts and Watch Dogs for PS4.
So, why even bother buying a physical copy of a game if you can't do anything with it other than install the game on your console? I might as well save my self a trip to the store and just download the game.
I can't see stores like Walmart, Target and GameStop liking that their opportunity to make money off selling games is being pulled out from under them like that.
I don't put anything in to reviews. It's just one person's opinion and early reviews seem to be especially higher than what they will be later down the road.
The demo didn't impress me and I'll more than likely cancel my pre-order and put the money on a PS4 or Xbox One if GameStop is taking pre-orders for either of those consoles after E3, which I figure they will be.
Played it. The demo was very short and really only demonstrates movement, atmosphere and very, very little combat. I know the demo is just suppose to be a taste of what to expect, but this demo was less than a taste. It was a tease of a taste.
Considering the method in which Naughty Dogg released the demo - having to own God Of War: Ascension, plus the months of waiting for it's release, it's a letdown.
First, Blockbuster is still around? I thought they went bankrupt and got sold off to Dish Network? Secondly, who the F pre-orders anything at Blockbuster???
I blame Rocky IV, Mark Whalberg and Good Will Hunting.
My biggest problem with the Xbox being "always online" is Kinect. How do I know big brother isn't watching and listening 24/7? Sure, I could just unplug Kinect, but that means pulling my TV out and figuring out which wire is which. That's a lot of trouble to hide from the demons at Microsoft.
Another waste of time article I clicked on today. Thanks.
Hmmm.. PS4 and Watch Dogs or.. GTAV? What to do? What to do?
With the way things are going, it'll be $60 for half the game.. another $30 to $40 to download the other half.
I use Trend Micro and got nothing. Seems safe.
More rushed, crappy comic book movie games, please!
Well f***! I bought Day 1 and missed out. I already have all the GOW games, but still.. it's ridiculous that it's such a gamble anymore on when and where to buy a video game. I have The Last Of Us pre-ordered, too.. should I pick it up Day 1 also or are they going to include the Uncharted trilogy as a bonus a week later???
Now we know why Cliffy B left Epic before this game came out. He knew he would get trolled to death by all the haters, blaming him for the game not living upto expectations, even though he had nothing to do with this game. Same with Rod Fergusson.
Deserves them right for me NOT getting the $10 credit AGAIN!
It's not valid. Why? Because it doesn't matter if he's a professional "writer" or professional "reviewer", they are still just people.. each with their own opinion.. just like the rest of us. No "pro" can tell me MY likes and dislikes, because the only "pro" at that is ME. For that reason, I really don't get why people put so much into pieces like this and reviews. Judge things for yourself.. don't let others decide for you.
I'm not too far into the game, but so far it's impressed me with the MONSTER size EPIC boss battles.
EA will fix the issues and then relaunch the game as a "special edition". Easy fix and the sheep will follow.
Having PS+ is a no-brainer, but it amazes me how many people are still on the fence no matter how many great things they keep hearing about it. Sony making these people subscribe to PS+ to play online is doing these people a FAVOR.. they just don't know it yet.
