I've come to generally respect and trust GameInformer's reviews over the years.. Every once in a while they post a review that I'm taken aback by but for the most part they are very subjective.
Outside of GameInformer I mostly ignor reviews anymore because of how opinion ladden they are instead of critiquing them based off of individual merits..
Ouch looks like the X1 titles aren't immune to the harsh reviews either.. There have been nothing but mixed reviews for games on both the PS4 and X1.. Ohh well it's just launch, better games on the horizon.
Don't be "that guy" and split hairs over a figure of speech...
At my local Gamestop the manager was telling me they were only allocated 50 consoles of each the PS4 and X1. Thats an awful small number of each..
But I do know they sold out of their PS4 pre orders less than a week after E3 because there was only 2 left when I got mine..
But at the night of the launch the same manager told me they were "accidentally" sent an additional 15 PS4's which sold out by 2 that afternoon.. A line of people who hadn...
It's crazy to think the last time Sony reported any kind of pre order numbers they said they had a little over 1 million worldwide.
Now sitting here knowing they sold over a million in NA alone boggles my mind.. How many more will they sell at the european/asian launches?
Sony is off to a hot start.. Guess the challenges that plagued the PS3 launch are a distant memory now. Can't wait to see what games we're getting on PS4.
To dang hot for her own good..
@static none of those links have "official" numbers from Microsoft themselves.. All were third party surveys, I stand firmly by my statement...
Except Microsoft has never officially released their official failure rate.. Need I also remind you that MS knew about the RROD and disc scratching issue pre launch but didnt address it? Microsoft has to earn our trust back...
Have you ever noticed how the xbox is the only consumer electronics device outside of laptops that have an external power brick.. Not even pcs have external power supplies.. hmm wonder why that is? /s
Sorry to hear that :0(
I've always been lucky with consoles like this.. never had a launch unit not work.. hope you're back in the fight soon!
@flame you arent supposed to return hardware like that to the retailer.. even says so in the user guide under warranty..
I've logged at least 30 hrs on mine over the last 3 (technically 4) days without so much as a hiccup.. Killzone mp runs fantastic, Assassins creed IV is a blast, Resogun is A-freaking-dictive, remote play flawless, and the system is whisper quiet.. Sony knocked it out of the park without question...
"Like MS did with the 360"
You're kidding me right? They denied the issue even blamed their users for inadequate airflow for at least a year.. They still haven't, to this very day released official figures of how many 360's were returned.. Thats not "making it right with your fanbase". It's been 3 days since launch and Sony is already working on this and communicating with consumers... Try again bud
So you're letting the ramblings of some fanatical zeakots influence what ganes you enjoy? Makes no sense. . I hate Microsoft and what they stand for but I still bought a 360 for the experiences on that system.. I play games not fanboys. .
Mine has open shelves and the tv mounts on a "stem" that sticks up in back.. great design that gives your stack plenty of room.. bought mine for $80 and it looks great..
Lol Sony leaving a mark.. Literally!! Lmao
You're only depriving yourself of some of the best exclusives out there . Shouldn't be so close minded...
@element I couldnt log into PSN for 2 hours but still was able to download the patch.. Download and install took 3 1/2 minutes.. I could definitely get used to these new download speeds on PSN.
Uncharted for PS4 is official!!!!
Totally in love with this game right now on my PS4.. My only complaint so far is the free running mechanics.. Sometimes Kenway jumps or moves in a direction you don't want him to.
But from a technical and graphical perspective this game is astounding..
