A few positives and a lot of negatives. I have 2 Xbox 360s and no PS3, but this announcement pretty much guarantees I won't buy the Xbox this year.

But to all of the people saying they are going to Sony...are you sure that Sony won't be doing the same things? I am pretty sure they won't have the always connected, and they obviously won't have the kinect issues...but do you really KNOW that Sony won't block used game sales or charge give publishers the ab...

If it comes out in the U.S., I am willing to give it a shot. I loved the game, and liked the world itself. I know its a different game, but I'm a sucker for a good dungeon exploring rpg.

...then I guess the Xbox One wouldn't be able to reach high shelves, and would leave items on the bottom stair waiting for you to take them upstairs?

Lag doesn't work the same way in Rocksmith the way it does in RockBand. Rocksmith uses the sound of your real guitar, not pre-recorded sound, so any delay between your physical strumming and the audio of your guitar being heard cannot be corrected by lag settings. RockBand is playing pre-recorded guitar parts, so the system can adjust the timing of your button presses to synch with the pre-recorded notes. If you played drums in RockBand, when you do your free-for-all fills, you'll ...

I'll probably buy Fuse when its around $15 in October. Looks like it has some flaws, but could be fun.

Doesn't that assume you only play the Vita at home? You can't use the remote play when you are out and about. Personally, I use the vita about 80% away from home, so I would still need Vita software.

I got the Vita on Black Friday for $180 at Amazon, with Assassin's Creed Liberation, Playstation Allstars, and 3 months of PS+.

I never had a PS2 or PS3, but had the Xbox and 360. The vita support is one of the things that is making me lean to the PS4, although I haven't made a final decision yet.

Forget about being forced to watch the nfl on xbox, can you even watch the NFL (outside of the games from ESPN, NFL Network, and your local broadcasters) on Xbox? I haven't really seen that mentioned. I don't have a PS3, but from what I understand, you can watch the out of market games on PS3 (the way DirecTV's Sunday Ticket works), but you cannot on Xbox. The press release and xbox revealed never mentioned the ability to watch every NFL game on Xbox One. I am assuming that we...

I don't think these are ideas I want to see, but I think they will try to do some (if not all) of these. They said they can dynamically add achievements, and have achievements across the platform, so that is what I think they will do.

I can't tell if I am getting disagrees because people don't like the idea or if people think they won't happen. I don't like them either, but I do think they will happen.

A couple of ideas I am guessing we will see with the new achievement system.

Limited edition achievements: Developers can add an achievement on a specific day, for that specific day only. For example, they can add an achievement on New Years Eve 2013 for detonating a bomb in the sky. Get the limited edition 'Happy New Year 2014: Fireworks' achievement.

Day One achievements: Even more insideous, achievements that can be earned for playing the g...

While what you are saying is correct, it goes even beyond that. Even if you never personally buy or sell used games, consumers benefit from used games. It is a simple supply and demand issue. For the last few years, most games can be found between 33% and 50% off NEW. The reason prices are dropping so fast is because the people who bought the games on release are selling their games at a discount. The new products must lower their prices to keep up with the used prices. If people can no...

As a person who had an original Xbox and has 2 Xbox 360s, and a vita, but doesn't have a PS2 or PS3....I am going to wait until Christmas 2014 to decide which one I will get. Both the PS4 and Xbox One had items in their presentation that I am very skeptical about. For PS4, I don't trust the Gakai gaming service to work where we can play lag free games run over their web service instead of over the box, and I don't trust that I will be able to play PS4 games on my vita lag free. ...

I can only speak for myself. I was awarethat people were upset about the endinging (but didn't know any of the specifics or reasons), and loved the first tw MEs, but didn't get around to playing ME3 until this year. I only played it with the extended ending, and when it ended, I thought it was ok. Certainly not great, but I didn't feelangry or that it was bad....just kind of ok. Maybe I would have been angry about the ending had I played it without the extended cut, I don'...

It took me a long while to get into it. At first, I didn't really understand what I was doing. I've never played Monster Hunter or any of the similar games. I am more used to RPGS like Skyrim, Dragon Age, Witcher etc, so this game is very different. So it took me a long while to figure out the mechanics of the game. I found it very helpful once I figured out a few things: that I should use the mind's eye to see all of the grabs around the battlefield, That it is ok if you die...

That can't be right that Limbo was 2,100 points, can it? I bought it when it came out, and loved it, but I don't think I would have paid over 25 dollars for it. I would be stunned if it was over 1600 points, but my memory isn't always the greatest.

It was actually something someone was kind enough to show me early on when I signed up for PS+. In the PS Store, you can purchase the games for PS3 even if you don't download them, and they will be saved in your PS account. I can go online right now, and see the history of all of the games I own. If and when I get a PS3, I can link it to my PS3 and download them then. But everything that I have chosen to get since I signed up for PS+ is ready to download.

Personally, I only have a Vita, and Xbox 360, and don't have a PS3. I bought a year of PS+ (it actually was during the buy a year and get 3 months extra free), just for the free vita games, because the first games I wanted when I bought the Vita were Uncharted and Wipeout, so I figured it would be worth it just for that. As it turns out, I now have a whole bunch of PS3 games, and am probably going to buy a PS3 after E3 (hoping for a price reduction around then). Even though I have been...

What about Sheppard from Mass Effect? Just because not everyone used the female version, dosen't invalidate the female version as a great protagonist. She was better than many on the list.

"There’s also the ugly rumor that the Xbox 720 will require an always-online internet connection, which, if true, means the console WILL block used games." should actually read "There’s also the ugly rumor that the Xbox 720 will require an always-online internet connection, which, if true, means the console COULD CONCEIVABLY block used games."

I don't think that always on means used games are automatically blocked. Always connected has other uses ...
