It wasn't too bad. I bought the launch system with Kinect. Resold it and lost £40. I now have 2 PS4s. The X1 is much cheaper now. I can get the system later on. It seems much more improved now.
DDOS isn't a security issue. Its not a hack. It's falsely overloading a network. Nothing can be done to stop it completely. This article is click bait drivel.
I loved Alan Wake. Really like Remedy. I may rebuy an X1 for this game.
Final chance? Or Final chance this year?
Imagine if MS and Sony went with an always online system, with regular check ins? Hopefully this never happens. All the games that need online on consoles are unplayable at the moment.
Lizard Squad are attention seekers and more should be done by the authorities.
What are you on about? The industry now allow and supports Indie development much more than last gen. Its not about hardware, it's about having that conducive environment for developers to take risk.its not a gen argument in terms of performance.
Because of ignorance and naivety. Many triple A developers started as Indie. ND and Bungie to name a few big ones. Some of these Indies are so original in terms of story telling and gameplay. It also allows risky and new ideas on a smaller, less risky scale. Look at The Banner Saga, Ether One, Never Alone, Thomas was Alone, Retro City Rampage, Hot line Miami... All great games. Indie games.
It's the Lizard Squad DDOS attacks. Its all over twitter.
Holy Shit Balls if true!
I wish Sony had bundled Infamous: Second Son over the holiday season. The game really is impressive.
That makes me old too :) ... :(
So the console is essentialy $280. A big move from $499. If this continues then the X1 and PS4 can be 1:1 in the US, with the PS4 leading in other parts of the world.
Good deal for the US market.
Some people act like the sales of the each console directly affect their enjoyment of it. Do you like your console and the games on it? OK good... You win.
Oh it's not like the 360 had a years head start and the PS3 still outsold it after 9 years? MS doesn't have the market dominance elsewhere to make up the gap. Even if they take the lead in NA and UK.
@Heman76
They may be the biggest markets in the world, but doing it over the holidays only is not enough. Secondly, and more importantly, these markets still don't account for more than 50% of worldwide sales. Look at the PS3... A year late, more expensive with multiplats running not as good... It still outsold the 360 in the end... Why? Because of Europe and Asia.
MS doesn't have these markets and they are being outsold 10 in 12 months of the year in...
For a game that is 11 months away it looked pretty dam good. Who's to say that the game won't look better and match the E3 trailer?
MS showcased Gears on 360, which looked stunning. Upon release and close insepection the game wasn't that impressive.
ND and Sony 1st party studios will continue to set the bar on what's possible on consoles. Just like they did last gen. Let's wait on release to judge and conmpare.
@illusive_man
"Ori isn't an Indie"... It's in the vain of Indie, small budget, not Tripple A. So i guess it's okay to not hate it because its a small game co-funded by MS yes? And it's right to hate all other Indies? Thats your logic? Ubisoft has it's own Indie branch of Indies now... Bungie and Naughty Dog were Inide... Stop spewing garbage.
"Scream Ride is better than interative movies" Have you eveb played Heavy ...
I think Sony should still release it.
I know there is already backlash from the leaked emails, and their Sony Pictures stock is plummeting as a result. But a show of defiance and buzz around this film may be better in the long run... or maybe not?
I really would like them to release it though.
I think this is a new IP, in collaboration with some external studio. They already announced their GOW game.
I would still like to see the cancelled IP come back in some form (Stig's game). I know it was too close to Destiny, but can you imagine SM Studios doing a game like that? Immense!
I still think DriveClub looks a lot better
