As someone who lives near Seattle I cannot wait to explore this game.
I own 2 (trying to preserve 60GB one). Will never get rid of them.
Last of Us and GTA5 made it a generation defining year. But most everything else was kinda just run of the mill games. Lots of good ones but almost all just sequels with minor improvements.
1998-2001 was a golden age I'm afraid we'll never see repeated. Every genre had the big defining games and ever since then has been a slow progression.

9.55 million after being launched world wide for a year.
Wii U is in pretty terrible shape. Full year as the only new console and it was almost stagnant. Even with price cuts and game releases thing won't pick up much.
PC sales must really be growing a lot in general because EA has done everything they can to kill sales by forcing Origin on all their games.
Only?
That doesn't fit Titanfall well and is in general just ugly. I rarely go for custom controller designs though.
Looks like PS4 will have overtaken the Wii U this week. Xbox One not far behind. 50/50 split for PS4/XBO is definitely not an encouraging sign for Microsoft. 360 sold 60/40 over PS3 in the US and they still about tied globally. We'll start to see the true picture once PS4 launches in Japan and the supply catches up to demand.
Good. I was kind of assuming they'd convert the PSN download library to PS4. Would be quite mad if all the PS1/PS2 games I bought from there never transferred.
Hope they can do some better post processing effects with PS4's hardware too.
Gears is pretty much burned out imo. Might be just me but the novelty of the TPS arcadey cover jumping wore off after Gears 2. New gen is time for a new franchise. Titanfall may be this generation's Gears equivalent for Xbox.
Yeah PS3 was not selling well at launch price. I don't see why you just assume I would deny that. Just saying that any new hardware doing well should be selling out enough for retailers to have no incentive for a price cut. I mean we're just now at 2 months.
Are eShop games still tied to the individual system?
I don't disagree. Nothing is stopping an indie game from being GOTY caliber but I've yet to see one that's more than a "snack" in terms of features. Better to have a separate category imo.
Xbox has always been defined by shooters. And btw Alan Wake is on PC. 360 does have tons of other games but almost all are on PC already. It would be just stupid to run an emulator of Fallout3 or Skyrim on a PC when a vastly superior PC version is already available for cheap. Looking at my 360 library there's maybe like 4 games I would like on PC that aren't there already (Lost Odyssey for one).
With marketing BS it's really hard to gauge whether it's a real big announcement or some crap nobody cares about.
Well deserved. Hope The Witcher 3 does good as well. Big RPGs are getting more rare as costs skyrocket. I'm just glad the genre is surviving.
If Nintendo releases a new console this soon they'll be heading down the same road as Sega. But they might get away with a reset if a new system runs Wii U games with the Gamepad as an optional peripheral.
Nintendo just made such a horrible mistake naming it the Wii U. Just the other day I heard a radio host talking about the Wii U and not knowing at all that it was a new console and not just an accessory. Nintendo would have done fine with a different name and slightly ...
Brand new console getting a retailer price cut to move units. That's a very bad sign for Microsoft.
That's cool. Going to take a hell of a CPU to run it. But honestly 360 just doesn't have many games worth going back to after years. It's just the nature of 360's online shooter centered library.

Glad someone understands framerate is a direct trade off to visual details. So many people on here act like 60fps is some magic number you get from "power". Even the best PC can be made to chug if you turn up resolution and mod effects enough. 30fps is the sweet spot for everything but fast paced games.
