No gamers hate the nickle and diming approach the industry seems to have adopted over last gen. everything now is a paid DLC or season pass. big established publishers even though with the millions they make would rather rehash old franchises rather than invest in new ips. I understand the recessions took a toll on the industry but this approach will not last long and will soon come crashing down.

That kermit meme stil cracks me up.

OT: I guess Microsoft approach is if at first you don't succeed with Japan more power to them. but personally it would be more effective if they concentrated on the markets that actually wants their console

" How about using your brains to offer a counter argument"

then this wouldn't be N4G.

I agree with your comment by offering developers the tools / platform to develop the games they want to it would be silly for them not to choose the ps4 as they don't have to work around bottle necks that were present on the last gen platforms. i really cant wait till 2015 when we start seeing games galore on next gen consoles and new ideas on how we inter...

"not like other execs taking jabs at the competition"

the reason why MS are not taking jabs is because they are not winning. last gen they ran adverts adverts and the like poking fun at the competition. there was a a major nelson podcast where he dedicated almost 20mins talking abut how sony didn't not provide hdmi in the box with ps3. last gen they were the bullies. MS takes jabs at apple all the time the hypocrisy of some gamers. is it right for sony to take j...

is that not what was said before e3, this gen is going to be a close one. both MS and Sony have learnt from their past mistakes on what the consumer wants

@ TJWM

call it whatever you want, i am allowed to dislike something whether it be AAA or not in this case i didnt like watch dogs, just the same way after trying 4 days to really understand why everyone was raving about it i returned GTA 4 as i didnt like the game

No it sold well because it was a new ip and from trailer and gameplay we saw thought it was deserving.

I personally didnt enjoy it (stopped playing after 10 mins the driving at the begining rubbed me the wrong way) but cant fault others who really enjoyed the title

PS it is a multiplatform game so all the hate towards the PS just reeks hidden agenda

"It takes eight story missions before the plot becomes something worth investing in, and in that time you’ve already found yourself confounded by tacky driving controls"

Exactly what happened to me

to the disagrees and prime, where did i mention that this was digital vs retail

my comment was about pre-ordering a game from an online retailer (amazon, shopto, hmv etc) not digital.

@ Prime please at least read and understand the comment and the use of caps not necessary to make a point especially when you are the one who is off topic

Yeah but preordering always turns out cheaper example preorderd destiny for £44 went into game and they were preodering for 59.99. the days i can walk into a store and pick up a game cheaper than i can get it online those days are long gone.

"What does Xbones short comings have to do with PS4"

to get the fanboys riled up and get clicks like there is no tomorrow. its funny all the arguements seems to aimed at the xbox one and he mentions the ps4 with no real explanation

bah and not 1 of them is a role i am looking for, ahwell

Agreed

i am enjoying my xbox one and kinect alot more than i thought i would using voice commands to do certain task just feels great for example the " xbox record that" rather than having to press buttons just feels natural. i really hope ms and developers keeps supporting it and not give up on it so easily.

if i had to guess it would be how DS makes articles from neogaf forum post and also how they (dualshockers) seems to sensationalise the minute topics into full blown headline news
