Steam Trading Cards can be exchanged for money. Which are then plowed right back into Steam sales. Which then grant you more trading cards...

No, I don't care.

It might be a nice to have feature, but don't make it mandatory.

I think you're going to be limited at the beginning of the generation, because the install base isn't there.

Which means that games, such as Watch Dogs for example, are going to be cross-generational. This will inevitably hold them back a bit.

I wonder where they're going to go next. Hoping for cyberpunk.

It makes sense.

MAG is no longer selling, so Sony is making no money from it. In fact, it's costing them money to keep it alive.

Maybe with PS4 pay-for-online and microtransactions (read: ongoing support), you'll get a better service.

Did you back this Kickstarter project? What did you possibly expect for $50k?

No, you don't just walk into a CEO position. High level executive searches take ages, need to garner board level support.

He engineered this exit. Microsoft did not intend on placing Larson-Green has head of the division, she was shuffled into it last minute.

This actually sounds like an awesome project.

Higher education in the US is broken. You pay tens of thousands of dollars for credentials that don't actually help you in your chosen career.

I think it's great that companies are creating alternate ways in. That alternate path has always been viable in the gaming industry, thanks to mods and indies - but the stronger it gets, the better.

AMD are going to release their CPU refresh later this year, with Steamroller on desktop and Jaguar on laptops.

If you want AMD, now is not the time.

The free to play mentality that consoles, late as ever, are about to adopt?

Hopefully, with next-gen consoles, game developers will be working closer with AMD to ensure their drivers are up to scratch.

Before the leaks came about, I had assumed that Sony would continue using the Cell architecture.

After a generation, developers and tool support is a lot stronger than it was too begin with.

I think that one of the key goals with the PS4 was too keep the cost down though, and you can't compete with an APU in that regard.

It's built on Unity, so that should already do most of the heavy lifting.

The game was coming to the Wii U anyway, the stretch goal had nothing to do with it.

Imagine if they missed the stretch goal, do you really think they'd say, "sorry guys, we're going to ignore this platform now, it's not even worth us spending an extra 10k on."

Android is fantastic, but Google's track record of hardware is poor.

The closest they've come to an Android console is probably the Nexus Q. Google should let others do the hardware, and just stick to making great services.

Whether it hits the stretch goal or not, it's coming out on Wii U.

Let's not pretend otherwise. Can you imagine, this team, not being able to scrape together whatever tiny number it is between their final total and the stretch goal?

If that were the case with Xbox, why did Sony go with Nvidia for the PS3?

As soon as you go x86 SoC, you have to go AMD. The interesting thing from the article is that they considered ARM though.

I didn't think ARM was anywhere near close enough to be considered.

Anyone leaving the COD money train is taking a gamble.

@WarThunder - when I said do a quick Google to find counter-points, actually do that instead of shooting your mouth off with "ignorant disagrees".

Because reviews such as Bit-tech, anandtech, tomshardware, hexus etc disagree.

They ignorant too?
