I think most of his points and conclusions are valid for the most part, but he does really mess it up a couple times. Giving GT grief for not matching the framerate of Forza on far more powerful hardware and saying they should have this figured out by now is indeed a joke.
I also find it a joke that this guy would seem to be heavily interested in cars and has no idea if a Viper has a V8 or V10.
I don't really think that many early adopters are all that pissed. They go into it knowing full well the price is going to drop at some point. And this is UK only. By the sounds of it, there wasn't that many early adopters there anyway, and if I recall, they got a free game as well.

14 stores listed nearby and all show unavailable. This is for the standard PS4. I didn't check any bundles they have.

Yeah, I think you're right. Forgot about that part.
I'm guessing it'll be the PS4 PS+ game for April.
I suspect War Thunder will be March.
I bet I won't.
I'd rather take option C. Release the game when it's ready.
Problem is, how do they promote a strong point for multiplatform games where there is no strong point to promote? They realize they're getting killed on the FPS and res battle, so they take the stand that FPS and res don't matter, only gameplay. Then why upgrade my 360 to an XB1?
I like collector's editions, because I like collecting things. I always buy disc based version instead of downloading because I like having shelves full of games. Some of the neat things I can stick in the empty places on the shelves, but most of it stays in the box and goes in the closet.
What is up with twitter posts being posted as news? How about some context?
I'm so sick of superfluous apostrophes.
Don't agree on Fallout or Borderlands.
Fallout 3 DLC was pretty short. It was good stuff, just not really much there. New Vegas didn't allow the option to finish the game and continue exploring, so I didn't even bother getting DLC.
Borderlands DLC was mostly done by other companies and was, for the most part, rather boring and added very little. The DLC didn't get good until the level cap update and Tiny Tina's, which is the one Gearbox did them...
Yeah, something about liking the page on facebook and giving away games. You want us to like the page when the image covers the article and can't be removed? Had to refresh the page to get rid of it.
It's not fair? lol. Oh man.
And what exactly would one be giving up by switching from AT&T to go to T-Mobile? You're swapping one service for another and upgrading a phone. There's very little, if anything at all, you're really losing out on by giving up your old phone and getting a new one. Providing both phones are running the same OS, you can pretty much copy everything over so you don't lose anything.
Giving up a PS3 to get an Xbox One, you lose.... I'm not even going to...
" i can buy a VCR/DVD/Blu Ray unit and still have access to my back catalog of movies and access all the apps like netflix & Hulu if i chose too."
Yep, just like you can buy the older consoles to play those older games exactly like you'd have to buy a VCR player to play your old VCR tapes. Your VCR tape isn't going to work a DVD/BR player.
That gif doesn't seem right. Of the other times I've seen PS4 and Xbox One version being compared, they looked the same, but obviously had a different framerate. Check out IGN and Digital Foundry comparisons.
Whether or not they pay for the game, you're right in that the price of the game shouldn't be a factor in the final score. It was a 9/10 game less than a year ago (and it was full price then) and I see no other reason given besides the price for a drop in 2 points.

"Can you hook up any bluetooth device to the XB1 like you can the PS4? NO!"
PS4 does not support all bluetooth devices yet. That's supposed to come in an update. Want to use your PS3 headset? No go.
"Can the XB1 boot up as fast as the PS4? NO!"
I didn't watch the 10+ minute video, so I assume they're talking about a cold boot-up. Starting up both from Standby mode (which most people are going to ...
Completely agree. Give me a great story and turn based combat and I'll be a happy gamer. I understand they want to cater to the attention deficient youth, but there's still plenty of old school RPG fans who would gladly return to turn based roots.
