My thoughts exactly as I build my own rigs as well and also build them for family and friends when asked to.

PC's are great for gaming if you want to spend the cash but you simply can't get console performance at $400 to $500. If we are honest about it 90% of the PC's that people are running are $500 factory built, bloatware loaded machines bought from Best Buy or other stores.

Things may change some with Steam Machines and Mantle but even th...

I would have to agree except that I do think the Division belongs in there too. I really think the middle of the road look is more due to the grubby art style required to portray much of New York. It is just very detailed especially with the procedural destruction, particle effects, advanced lighting, and surface modeling.

Number one IMO for just pure visual fidelity and realism though has to be Quantum Break.

"In some ways, the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions might hold back the next gen versions if they don't."

I am very excited about this game but the fact that it is launching on the older consoles is somewhat concerning to me. A game of this scope deserves to be totally focused on the power advantages of the new hardware.

It will still be an awesome game but we will always be wondering how much better the it could have been if it was solely developed f...

Although I will be disappointed if it is delayed I certainly don't mind waiting a few extra months for them to make the game right. There are a lot of good games coming out to keep my Xbox One busy for 2014.

Well, I happen to live in Canada too and I can tell you right now that Baseball is not to people in North America like Soccer is to Europeans. Not by a long shot. MLB's popularity has never recovered from the strike in 1994/95.

Football is ranked number one in the US as the most popular sport at 38.8% with Basketball coming in second at 15.3% and Baseball in third at 14.8%. So no Baseball is not comparable to Soccer in Europe.

I am not saying that th...

Pretty small market IMO. I am sure that there are those out there that like to play baseball on the console but it is a small group. If the demand is really there then they will develop something on their own or with a third party.

The NFL is where the money is at in NA sports games.

It works great for me. I would say that on average it doesn't hear a command 1 out of 50 times which to me is astonishing. I use it in game and with the UI. Seeing how I live in Canada I still have to use the remote to change the TV stations on my Bell Aliant FibreOp STB but other than that I never use it. Full One guide integration is coming this year to Canada so that remote will start collecting dust soon too. Even the volume up and down works great. Navigating the UI is a breeze...

I agree that BF4 is definitely a mess but comparing it to Killzone is pretty laughable. Killzone may work but it is uninspired and the gameplay is boring.

@srmiller82 Finally someone who has 3 clues on this site. There is absolutely no question that you cannot compare Sony and MS. I believe that once the acquisition of Nokia is approved by the EU MS will have $60 Billion in free cash. While Sony continues to lose money or just keep its head above water in every division but its insurance group. Numbers don't lie nor does the fact that it is a bad scene when you have to start selling off your assets to pay the bills.

LOL. Investment advice from a gaming blog. Too funny. This author needs to take his Fan Boy head out of his ass or the PS4's and take a whiff of reality. Moody, Fitch and S&P have all rated Sony stock as Junk Status. I.E. do not buy. Those investment articles that he is bitching about are not aimed at gamers they are for investors. They could not give a shit about gamers opinions. How deluded can you get?

For me it is:

TitanFall
Witcher 3
Quantum Break
The Division
Watchdogs
Destiny
The Crew
Sunset Overdrive
D4
Project Spark
Halo 5

Once I get a PS4 next Christmas I will get the Order and Infamous and hopefully they have some new announcements about uncharted and some others by then.

AMD will not be providing driver support for the Xbox One hardware for sure. I am not sure about the PS4. The last company you want putting out drivers for graphics support is AMD, they are terrible.

That is because they have no games to play right now. The Greatness is waiting until 2015 sometime.

I am not saying that The Last of Us should not be game of the year but you are aware that TSA (The Sixth Axis) is a Sony website I hope. They would be very unlikely to give the award to another Console's exclusive.

IMO it was a toss up between The Last of Us and GTA 5. The Last of Us inches out GTA 5 on the story side but GTA 5 wins out for me with longer lasting relevance as online play is a hoot.

The Wii in my opinion was a one off. It sold to a lot of parents because of the motion gaming fad and that it was family oriented. It also sold to a lot of core gamers as Nintendo is the oldest console maker still out there and had a fair number of core fans. The problem is that the motion gaming fad wore off fast as it did not work that well and they alienated a lot of core gamers who went over to the 360 and PS3. When the WiiU launched it simply was not enough to bring back many of thos...

Shitty bug. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Yes, they have gone up but not due to increases in performance or earnings. This is little more than an indication that large investors are buying their stock. Namely Daniel Loeb who wants to spin off the Sony Entertainment division. Just watch as his company buys more junk bond status stock to get a controlling interest in Sony. As investors like him get into the game it always bumps up stock prices as other investors see the potential to make a quick buck. PS4 sales as I said have done...

The problem with most of the comments here is that they are by Fan Boys who live in their own little universe that for some reason does not interact with the real universe.

Sony is and has been for over 7 years in a boatload of financial shit. They have no way of raising capital other than selling off properties. Their credit rating is in the toilet and having junk bond status means they can't raise shit on the markets either. They didn't sell their global headquar...

I love the WiiU game pad too but there need to be more games designed for it. It works well when you have a game that is meant for it but it sucks when you play a game that is meant for a controller like the Xbox or PlayStation controllers. A good example of that it Batman Arkham City. The controls are just the shits on that game as the game was not designed with that controller in mind.

As to your other comment, " I think the wiiu will out sell the xbox1 in 2014.&quo...

The liquid is definitely a possibility if there is a cracked pipe in the heat sink as it contains a heat transfer fluid. That being said is it very likely that this is a small batch failure that will be seen by very few owners of the Xbox One.

As far as my comment to Maria it is nothing more than a friendly jibe at someone who detests the Xbox One.

I know the PS4 has games coming in 2014 but Infamous and The Order are the only exclusives that are worth men...
