Seeing the Javelin suits flying around really makes me want to see a proper Iron-Man game done and given the Batman Arkham series treatment. The way they deployed their armament looked very Iron-Man-esque. Anthem looks good and look forward to playing in on my Pro.
Lol! I thought it was just me but that line preceding just about every trailer irked me! They tried to drive that point home a little too hard. And for what, timed exclusivity on mostly indie games!?
Oh yeah, SpiderMan, Detroit: Become Human, GT Sport...Sucker Punch's new IP. I think we all get the point. You actually have to make an effort to remember everything Sony is bringing to the table. Past the initial intro tomorrow, Sony barely needs to say or do anything flashy (Terry Cruz anyone?). The players know the deal. Just let the games speak for themselves and close the conference on a confident and positive note.
The X1X hardware itself was impressive for sure. I like the vapor cooling and the compact design. But the games definitely left something to desire. Getting a X1X at this point would be like someone letting you drive a Bugatti on the pothole ridden streets of Detroit: all that power and can't really open it up. Sony has the 1st party studios and ALL the major multiplats locked down...not a peep from any of the major titles represented on Microsoft's stage 2nite. That $500 price tag ca...
Beyond the die hard XB supporter, MS has a short leash. If they don't absolutely kill it later at their press conference, the $500 price tag will be tough for most to justify. It's the basic risk vs. reward scenario. Do you drop that kind of cash for multiplats and a lack of exclusives...the hopes they will develop new, quality IPs in the near future?
Or, do you purchase (or continue to support) Sony's platforms with a proven and very capable stable of first-party ...
Adexus, I completely agree w/ you! With the two you mentioned plus MGSV, there are some incredible single player titles coming down the pipeline. I've been so caught up in MP titles for the longest that I've been dying to sink my teeth into a deep single player story for a change. I believe The Order started what has the potential to be an awesome story arc if built upon correctly. I enjoyed it for what it was, but more so for what it laid the groundwork to, again, potentially become ...
I believe that healthy competition between platforms is good for us as gamers in the end. But MS really does seem to have lost touch with their audience. The more they try to regain any trust, they do something stupid or flip-flop on an ideal they spent so much time trying to convince people on. Someone said it best that they must be dizzy at this point with all the 180s they've been pulling...

Thanks for the correction! So...ballistic shield everyone!
I spy with my little eye a riot shield! As much as I am not a CoD fan, the first thing that popped into my head was MW2 (if I am not mistaken). Riot shields would really help in pushing the line up to the "B" Objective in Operation Metro (or Locker).
2 Weeks!

Kojima gave us alot of great years of exclusive gaming. Even on a honorary basis, he should be there. I still think he has something up his sleeve just for PS fans though.
On a slightly different subject, I can only assume that most readers of this post are picking up a PS4 at launch or soon after. If you plan on upgrading your HD, this is a great offer that I found on newegg that has a $20 off promo code until 11/10! 1TB, 7200rpm 2.5" SATA III by Hitachi: I paid $72.98 ...
Ratios are just a reflection of opinion. I do completely believe that 5:1 is possible regarding the PS4 vs XB1 preorders. For instance, at this point, 6 people have agreed with you whereas 51 have disagreed. This is probably closely tied to consumer interest. The 6 people that "Agree" are most likely interested in purchasing an XB1 or support MS in general. The 51 that "Disagree" all probably have their minds made up to purchase, or at least have interest in purchasing, a ...
Speaking of PS4 exclusives that are looking nice, anyone catch the new KZ: Shadowfall trailer!?
The shots of the darker, grittier Helghast side of the wall are a nice contrast to the bright & polished environments of the ISA side:

KZ: Shadowfall does seem to be getting some fine-tuning (as it should) up until the point it's released into the wild.
Still though, if these pics from Gameinformer for The Order are anything to go by, it's shaping up nicely as well...

Calling it now: Golmud Railway levolution has train derailing at some point crushing anyone and everything in its path! Love me some BF!
Sorry to burst your bubble man, but Sony purposely got out of the plasma business a while ago. They are heavily invested in pushing LED TVs and experimenting with others (OLED) to some degree. Plasmas use too much energy, are super heavy compared to LEDs and are like space heaters for your room. Plasma is a super heated gas and these are just some of the typical side effects that come with it. I have a 52" 240hz XBR HX900. The black levels are awesome. You can hardly tell the difference ...
I will be the first to admit, I am no tech spec whore. I know my lane and it is that of the consumer in this department. I will leave all that behind the scenes stuff to the programmers, engineers and system architects to work through and optimize. What I will say is that this whole RAM issue has taken on a life of its own and is getting blown out of proportion. In regards to the PS4, even IF the 4.0 to 4.5 GB for RAM is true, that is STILL a 700%-800% increase over what we are used to today ...
Killzone Shadowfall is lookin' mighty nice (saying it in my Joel voice)Haha! I'm loving these new Helghast pics of the different soldiers. The Scout is always crack! The level of detail overall is incredible...and these aren't even the hi-res ones!

That Driveclub comp video made me moist. Weather effects in DC are still tops IMO.
