They should have just called it AmericaBox
I like the controller. The rest is lost on me. I care not for sports or tv. 15 exclusives is promising, finally Microsoft gets it! But I am incredibly underwhelmed so far. Only 10 mins left to even remotely impress me
They better! I have mine ordered and I'm really anxious for a November release. If they pull the same crap they did with the ps3 and release it 6 months later, I'll cancel my order. I'm moving abroad next march but I'm too impatient to go Christmas without one. I would buy one right now if I could.
You would be amazed. I've had a number of people trade in old 2009 2010 FIFA games with me for a cent. I'd try to discourage them but they take it anyway
Blu ray discs, built in wifi and hdmi are all things the ps3 brought to the table.. The 360 pioneered the achievement systems and both consoles are now stronger for these
I have 19 and I'm in the 90% range of a few. My battlefield bad company 2 is a proud one as is my skyrim plat for pure time consumption. Battlefield 3 has glitched on me preventing the coop trophies which is a nuisance,
Destruction 2.0 was a pain. I must have died a hundred times for every kill I finally got through destruction ha. Everybody just knew the building was about to fall
This may be the hot topic for the moment and if it turns out to be untrue it will blow over for Microsoft but for Orth himself this just seems irresponsible and completely unprofessional. Hard to believe someone who would be trusted with inside information could be so stupid.
I seriously don't think Microsoft will be stupid enough to remove the trade game market and hopefully this online required is bull too, but they won't be seen as heroes for announcing they revoked these requirements because of backlash when you think that the ps4 has already been stated to play second hand games and work offline, this has put that console in a positive light. They can't be seen as the people's saviours when the competition has gotten there before them.
That's nonsense. Yes the early adopters will be the most loyal but if you haven't noticed it the loyal fan base online on forums that hate the idea of an always on console. I have my ps3 and 360 online and I hate the idea of being forced to do so, example I moved house and because of a previous tenant I had no Internet for 3 months! If my current consoles had this required online, I'd have had two useless machines through no fault of my own. This can't be a good strategy. I ca...
Which may have been worse than no comment at all. Microsoft will have to play this inevitable announcement very carefully.
Agreed, while we have to understand that they won't give us a thing on their unannounced hardware, their reply looks like a dodge. It would have been smarter to ignore these comments true or not
I can tell you from working in retail that these 'regular joe blow' gamers are talking about the ps4 and next Xbox. They are also keyed in on all the latest rumours. I reserve judgment personally until an announcement as should everybody else but if there is truth to these rumours the Durango is dead before its born. As impatient as I am I wish Microsoft would give us something already, there is a market for next gen as people seem eager, and Sony are getting a strong foothold with be...
PS4 preorders have been taken for about 2 months now where I work and in a lot of stores since the play station event.
I Should never have gotten excited for these games I suppose
I wouldn't say that, Star Wars kinect was a Disney game anyway. Just seems the GOOD Star Wars games are through.
Even rental stores pay a rental licence and buy in bulk. Used game sales into store add revenue to game stores that the store needs to buy new stock. It's all part of the cycle and a vital part of the industry. People are suffering a recession, we can't afford to buy every game new but still contribute greatly to the industry as a whole
The video game industry stands at an $80 billion dollar scene. that's an insane amount of money. There is obviously still a huge market at current with used games included. To block that market would destroy the whole industry. I know despite this there have been a lot of developer closures but that's a sign of the times and every industry type is feeling it
Freedom fighters. Shadow of rome! And i still wish theyd finish star wars battlefront and timesplitters
Not to be a fanboy about this but damn that was one major let down, not one of those terrible rumours was addressed. 2nd hand games? Always online? I got excited at the start when they showed the console itself but it looks heavier than my television! Not to mention half these features are probably going to be redundant outside of the US. I'm disgusted they kept the interface so similar to the old one too. I wanted a fresh experience. I'm pleased they have a number of exclusives in th...
