MS got a swift kick to the balls after they insulted their own fanbase. A kick so hard, they're still searching for their nuts with no luck. Maybe one day they'll be able to find one or both of said nuts & attain something resembling a Man's voice.
I know at 1pm eastern time PSN was being hammered and was shaky for a few hours. Incoming messages & sent messages were very slow too..
I wonder though if they were letting X number of people at a time actually access & download the beta instead of everyone at once. You think they staggered downloads with waves of people downloading and entering the game?
I don't know all the sales figures, stats & figures but for me, it was an instant failure when MS announced the system.
It's a big failure because it's a failure in its design. They may have patched out all the DRM an such but it was designed to do DRM & 24 hour check ins along with Kinect.
Halo, Gears & Crackdown just don't do it for me anymore. Been there done all that. They really have nothing on the horizon that interests me exclusive wise.Maybe...
I remember playing some Crimsonland on PC years ago so I'm not sure I'll be playing it.
I'm so ready for the Destiny Beta. I'm with you on that. I'm going to be playing heavily Thursday & Friday.
You could mess around in Doki Doki Universe (free this month) or play some Resogun (new modes).
I'm going to finish up Dead Space 3 over on the PS3. Been going through coop with my Brother.
I'm a PS4 owner & have only played a few indie games so far.
Played a little of Doki Doki Universe, Mercenary Kings & Contrast because I got them with PS+. I bought FEZ but haven't played a lot of it. I need to play it some more. Other than that everything else has been big boy games. AC4BF, InFamous SS, Wolfenstein TNO, Killzone Shadowfall, Rayman Legends (yes, its a big boy game, TR DE & currently Watch Dogs.
Now with that said. There are some indie games...
Steam is bad & I did get out.
PS Now isn't a service I can ever see myself using. I bought a console to buy game discs to play on the system not to try and play streamed games from who knows where.
I'm not sure who they are targeting with Now. Is it TV buyers or console owners? Are they just looking more into the future with this service?
What about an option to create our own folders underneath highlighted Tiles? Adding a game tile & having all your games there. You could scroll down through them with the option to create folders & sort them how you want.
The XMB would have been nice on PS4. It was very functional & sleek with some nice options for your Games, Videos & music. It did need an option for creating folders within folders. My PS3 Game folder is kind of crazy. I have my games sorted by forma...
Yes it will.
This is so freakin cool. More epicness for this game!
Oct 7 is going to be Alien day for me. Watch the movie & play the game. One of my favorite movies of all time.
Yeeeeeees!
Oh, I see. I thought you just put $5 down on the Gamestop preorder. My apologies.
I'd probably keep the preorder then since your in a tight spot with ol Gamestop.
I'm with you on the physical discs. I buy everything physical when the option's available.
IDK, for Destiny it's different. I guess I feel that it's going to be such a mainstay with "Legs" that it doesn't matter. Plus the convenience of it may sell me on digital just this onc...
I am highly entrenched in the physical game disc camp but with this game I am thinking I might would buy it digital if a deal shows up like the one for Wolfenstein TNO. I think it went up on PSN preorder for $53.99 for plus members.
The thing with Destiny is I think it's going to have staying power with tons of people playing. After playing the Alpha I expect it to be playing the game for along time. The level cap may be a problem here but I suspect maybe they will increase level ...
This would not be hard to do at all Shaft0140.
Just do it! :)
I agree with you that it probably hasn't been worth it for PS4 only. Not so far anyway. I think it will add up throughout this year and will become "worth it". Now if you own a PS3 then it was definately worth it. I've got so many great games on my PS3 from PS+.
I even que up all the Vita games even though I don't own a Vita yet. You never know what the future holds :)
PS4 is still new. The best value for PS+ is in owning a PS3 as well &/or a VITA at ...
I put the 1TB HGST in my PS4 as last year. No problems so far.
How would a hybrid do in the PS3? Is there a marked difference in boot & load times from a traditional 7200rpm HDD to a Hybrid? I currently have a 5200rpm in my PS3 & it seems so slow.
"Well said" Spotie.
I was just commenting on your "strive to own all the consoles". There's no point in owning a X-Bone for me personally and others like me.
Im not guilty of anything except hating MS, refusing to buy an X-Bone & not being interested in their exclusives.
Does that make me an autofanboy of Sony or Nintendo?
If so then so be it. Everyone's a fanboy!
It's not petty crap that keeps me from buying a X-Bone.
I simply don't want one. They dont have games I want to play. Halo 5 could be good. That said, I'm not that excited for it either.
Have you ever ate something that you like for years but then it made you sick & you couldn't eat it anymore? That's what MS is to me this gen. A Sony console took their spot on my shelf. It just so happens that the Bone doesn't have anything I want to play. Nothing...
I would really like to get a WiiU this year as they have games out & games coming I want to play.
Do you think we'll see a price drop for the console this year?
That's really the only thing holding me back, the money.
I'm buying a small stack of games this year for the PS4 like Alien ISO, Middle Earth: Shadows of Mordor, Diablo 3 UEE, Jamestown & maybe TLOU Remastered. I have limited funds so I have to work with what I got. If I can comfortably get ...
She will get over it or buy a different game.
While I'm not against an option to play as a female character, I am against self elected, so called "leaders" forcing their views to "progress" society.
