Not only is this a known, decades-old problem, but you're reinforcing that it's okay for corporations to release hastily assembled, faulty products with a fix-it-later mentality to beat the opposition to market/the Christmas rush/alien invaders (Thanks, Obama!).

Frankly, people like that are why we can't have nice things. And they have only themselves to blame for shitty launch products.

You didn't need reviews to see DR3 was ho-hum.

So Battlefield is something to pop a boner about, but Dead Rising 3 is "by the numbers"? Makes perfect sense.

Battlefield 4 brings the full, 60fps, 64plyr Battlefield experience to consoles for the first time ever - on top of the most progressive control scheme and rewarding team and mechanics. The map altering Levolution is not just hype and really does alter the match in interesting ways, while still keeping the wholesale realtime destruction introduced in the Bad Company series. Stats and Premium upgrade carry over from previous/current gen so you can enter next gen with all your gear.

Dead Rising 3 brings nothing to the table in terms of its own franchise and also the hack-n-slash genre. More or less zombified Dynasty Warriors with a comedic horror bent, DR presented western tropes through a Japanese aesthetic as designed by Inafune himself. The deal was an arcady wacky experience that itself helped launch 360 way back when.

Here we are, game is presented 'grittier' and the gameplay moves toward Western sensibilities even more. It offers nothing to justify it being next gen other than being exclusive to a next gen console. The charm is lost (already faded by the Western developed Case Zero expansion), and the devs embarrassingly hype how many zombies can be on screen at once non-ironically like they solved some issue the series had.

Yeah, Battlefield on X1/PS4 is something to pop a boner about, and DR3 can get dusty on the used rack.

Your argument is essentially laughing at the aesthetic upgrade and higher number of moving parts on a screen Dead Rising devs are pushing...

...then tell me that the aesthetic upgrades (or..."levelolution") and higher number of moving parts on the screen (or...64 player battles) are something that makes Battlefield worth getting hyped about.

And I'm sorry, but things like breaking and catching fire don't interfere with the operation of the system? What?

Like Kalyx said, everything I've mentioned is well-documented and there's more out there. But I focused on Sony because it only goes back a few gens and flies in stark contrast with your claims that they're known for reliable hardware. They're known for the opposite. And while you haven't had any problems, that would be like me saying there weren't launch issues with GTA Online because I didn't lose my character or my car or progress.

Are either really that surprising, though? I mean, I hoped DR3 would be good, but neither looked all that impressive (visuals aside).

Ain't that the truth.

On the plus side, it encouraged me to build a new PC. I will probably get one console or the other eventually, but both companies did nothing but turn me off their new hardware.

I like PC Gaming, especially since I have a controller if I want to utilize that. I can't wait to lay some dough down on an official gaming PC.

My brother just dumped his gf and moved into my house again and he is getting the PS4, I will observe his actions on that part of the battle.

The Xbox One tests will have to come from some unsigned person I have yet to tag.

I've just bought a laptop for work, but I've made sure that it had an HDMI out ready for Steam in-home streaming. I'm not a fan of playing something like Saints Row IV at my desk, but lying on my sofa? Oh hells yes.

If Levolution, a gameplay changing feature, comes off as merely 'aesthetic' to you; and you consider 64plyrs 'moving parts', then I'm afraid you're being disingenuous. That's a ridiculous comparison straight out of Swiss' playbook. Don't do that.

I was regretting not get PS4 at launch and selling it for profit but I see on Ebay they are going for about 450$ which is not a great profit margin.

Going to go pick one up today to celebrate being debt free. The only other thing I could think of to do was get drunk, but I have worm in the morning.

Got mine on Friday. Early days, but I'm quite liking it so far.

My worst issue is getting used to playing BF4 on the Dualshock 4 after so many hours of playing the last few games on a 360 controller. But I'll cope.

On the line about Day 1ers deserving it, Heisenberg also hit the note I was on that there's a early adoption culture for certain items that seem ridiculous and can only be because of the same attitude the makes people post "First" in gaming article comment sections. When we get software day one, at least that's because we know others will and we wanna be where the party is; big get togethers and such. This is a time in gaming where there's not quite an urgency to jump next-gen, with iffy launch libraries on both consoles to be honest. Add to that the most annoyingly pathetic console fanboy war in... ever. I kind of want these people to have hardware problems. I don't mind people spending money stupidly to have issues after the fact. Makes me feel good.

But if your luck stands I'm hoping you yourself don't have any issues, I didn't mean for you specifically to have issues. Hell, I even noted that I rather things work out. I don't want Sony or Microsoft to fail or anything. I want an Xbox One. Just not at launch.
So much hypocrisy here. You hate pathetic little fanboy wars? You sir are the single largest Xbox360 fanboy I've ever known.

You want these people to have hardware failures and that makes you feel good because they spent money in the process? Sounds like someones jelly. Shit, I kind of don't feel bad for wishing RRoDs upon you anymore.

You hope he doesn't have any issues with his launch console, but hope others do? What is your deciding factor on who should/shouldn't get a brick for their hard earned money on launch day? Or are you just trying to save face by saying it wasn't specifically directed at him because he called you on your bullshit? Even if it wasn't aimed specifically at him, you aimed it at day 1 adopters in general, which is a category that he is obviously in, which means the comment is still directed towards him. If you're going to make nonsense statements, stick by them.

KK is the only one even near the truth here in that people should know by now that hardware issues are to be expected at launch and said people should be prepared to deal with that. Nearly everything has issues at launch, it is just skewed in the public eye when it comes to consoles because they have such a huge launch day install base. Look at other types of products that have huge launches, such as cell phones; those also always seem to have multitudes of issues reported. Usually happens when you have vastly more people using something as compared to something not many people use at all. People who adopt an item at launch should at least acknowledge the failure potential; however they don't deserve it because they want something first or get it before you, Kalyx.

Knack is pretty damn enjoyable.

Only little annoyance so far is that video apps ignore your screen size settings. Everything else works as advertised.

'Da fuck are you even talking about? Stop that. Jesus.

I'm not an Xbox fanboy, ass, I have a few blogs blasting X1's features and marketing. I don't want anybody having hardware failures and I was completely Sony-sympathetic during the network shutdown.

Facts are free, get some before you post an epic rant. ...Wow.

Didn't even read the rest, your opening premise rendered that a potentially huge waste of time. I'm just kinda blown away really. Another guy who knows little about me trying to expose a lot about me.

I'm backtracking reading posts giving you the benefit of a doubt and shit... Dude: I addressed some of the stuff you coughed up, while marveling at how eagerly you avoided certain points to make your post. My posts were as clear as a 'Kalyx VG paragraph' can get.

You are trolling, good sir, and I love you for it.

Yeah, not played it on PS4, but maxed out the PC version and it was gorgeous. Got the Wii U version cheap too and that probably plays the best. About the only game benefitted by a touchscreen.

Cool

UK PS4 OWNERS!

Think £50+ is too much per game? Well it is, it's goddamn scandalous. Think £35-40 is a bit better? Follow this guide:

http://www.nowgamer.com/features/217...psn_games.html

Ignore the Borderlinx part, there's an unnecessary expense. Use this address:

10398 W Overland Rd
Boise, ID 83709

Works perfectly, just got Killzone through Amazon doing this and it's much cheaper. Just remember, if you want any DLC, buy US PSN credit and buy the US DLC as DLC is region locked to the region of the game you bought.

Some games aren't available for download, such as EA games. In this instance, buy US PSN credit from Amazon (make sure the code is emailed and not posted) to the value you want to spend and buy it on the store directly.

According to Eurogamer, Gaikai services currently on track for a late 2014 release in North America while everyone else has to wait till 2015. As of right now, Sony doesn't know how the redemption process for PS3 games will be on for the PS4.

Quote:
According to Eurogamer, the service will enter full distribution in third quarter 2014 in North America. It will then come to other territories in 2015.
https://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/...half-2014.aspx


For those in Europe, Sony has temporarily disabled the ability to redeem codes on PSN as part of launch period stability concerns for PSN.

Quote:
The PS4 launch in Europe was this past weekend and PSN was not prepared for all the traffic coming to the service. To cope with this Sony has temporarily suspended Voucher Redemption on PSN.

That includes money cards, product vouchers, PlayStation Plus vouchers; basically anything that has a code. So the three vouchers inside every PS4 and any upgrade voucher are currently useless, locking out more-or-less SIX launch games from being accessed.

Yeah, I got the demo on my 360. It is fairly clunky, but a marvelous idea for a puzzle game.
