"I'm impressed at all the people that support Sony in their decision to not give them a free game."

Um... you know there are at least four F2P games available with PS4 launch?

Do I support the policy of not moneyhatting third parties in an attempt to woo the eight countries that were slashed from the original release schedule? Yup.

"Of course there is always the long-rumored PS4 release date, November 12th."

Um... it's been officially announced as the 15th.

Yes. Yes they would.

Boo. I want Brink 2.

@Balls: Only if the publisher is willing to pay for them. They may be cheap, but they are not free or a "given" for every game. This "free dedicated servers for every MP game" FUD has gotten way too much traction.

I've got a deposit on my preorder, but I think I'll just get the digi copy.

Midnight launch (hopefully) on Thursday night, get it home, get set up, get my KZ and F2P downloads started, and I'm ready to rock and roll when I get home from work on Friday. (yes, I know you can play-while-you-download, but you've obviously got to download SOME portion before you can start, and the servers will be getting slammed)

Well, Respawn mentions on their website that MS "priced" their cloud servers to be "more affordable." No one (aside from random forum posters) has claimed that they are free.

@Zod: Love your disagrees. I guess they think a persistent open world game with dozens of simultaneous players per instance will be run P2P.

@Gaffy: GameStop store managers supposedly pull an average of $38k, with a low of $28k and a high of $61k. That's really not very much. I've thought it would be neat to be a GS manager, but I couldn't support my family on that income.

@shady: "walmart target and toysRus,all 3 places are xboxs bread and butter,soccer mom and dads who have no idea about pre-ordering and so on"

And what do you think those uninformed soccer moms and dads are going to do when they compare the price tags?

They should offer like a $10 or $20 credit to take the Kinnect out of the box, and just sell them to a tech recycler for parts. I bet people would bite.

And what exactly precludes the PS4 cam from accomplishing either of those?

And William Randolph Hearst who had just purchased thousands of acres of forest for pulping for newspapers when they came up with an even more efficient method of making hemp paper.

MS may not be a sinking ship, but they are getting some pressures to unload the Xbox division.

I think medical cards for recreational use undermine its legitimacy as a therapeutic substance.

And clubs make money hand over fist selling at essentially street prices.

Don't forget the petrochemical, paper manufacturing, synthetic fiber, etc etc etc industries... industrial hemp is a threat to a wide swath of established concerns. In my opinion, those being the reason for prohibition moreso than potential recreational dangers.

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaa....

"drugabuse.gov" (with copious claims of "research says," with no reference to any such research)

"psychosis and scizophrenia (sic)" (that's 'scHizophrenia')

Adorable.

But you forgot to direct people to this well-researched documentary that enumerates the danger of marijuana in a measured and comprehensive manner: 4567d ago 3 agree2 disagreeView comment
