unless if they have changed something Sony wont require the 24hr check in stuff.
So they're predicting they'll go back on their statement that PS4 can stay completely offline?

you have my sword
Unless Sony reps have been straight-up lying and an internet connection IS required, there's no way their policy can be a straight copy and paste.
I wish journalists would actually think before saying shit.

The fact it isn't controlled by Sony on their servers will mean it's better.
If you can play games offline, we're safe. They've already done the brave thing, if they're going against publishers this much, what else is there to do?

there's always Wii U.
They've said it a few times, mostly in the Edge cover story. The installs are seamless, just a brief initial install then it finishes while you play, but all data is loaded to the HDD.
Same here. I think the used game blocks are terrible for the industry which is why I'm against it. Thankfully PS4 won't have online checks or mandatory, always on camera.

I am interested in the Wii U a lot. I haven't owned a Nintendo system since the NES! Which is extremely shameful! I have become such a Sony whore in the last 15 years or so. Fucking PSX was too good!! >:-D
Verendus surely says a lot of things
My comment was about Kojima himself, he might not be in either of the conferences.
During E3 2006 Sony showed the first 'real' MGS4 trailer in their conference, it was their biggest third party exclusive and Kojima wasn't there.
What if MGSV at this point is just a PS3/360 game, they don't have next gen announcements to make and a short version of the trailer is showcased in a montage during both conferences and that's it?
Then they'll release a long version by themselves on tuesday.
I have a Wii U and it's the least exciting thing in my life right now, other than my sex life of course.

Are you sure you're not thinking of their download system? That sounds exactly like how PS4's background downloading system is going to work.
I don't remember anything talking about mandatory installs anywhere for the PS4.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
See I still don't get this line of thinking, Why? Why would they do it? Considering the markets they appeal to, Sony would have to understand the importance of used games. Do the journo's have any other evidence other than "Well Microsoft are, so Sony must be too, for some reason"

Yeah, it's the same system as downloads just from the disk. It's timed out to install over the first hour. XBO is doing it too.
6x blu ray drives are slow as fuck for all the data they have to load for next gen games. Epic and several other devs have commented on how excited they are to not have to rely on disk read speeds next gen.

Bro listen, you were hyping the Ninja Theory reveal a day before they unveiled a free 2 play iOS title. As far as I am concerned, you have zero credibility.

you know, I was thinking that when Shuhei made the Joke about DRM (death ray manta) coming to Vita, maybe he was trying to break the bad news in a lighthearted way....
now that we have Microsofts policy I wonder how long its going to be before we get Sonys.
In this case, they need to take microsofts lead and get it out there before E3.

Said who? How about the 40gb games that didn't need an installation?

no point in speculating. When it's all revealed for us to analyze that's when the criticism shall begin.

The sad thing is that this E3 should be the most hyped thing ever, yet look at what's going on. Fear instead of excitement because publishers are being greedy instead of looking at what they're doing.
Anyway, my brother traded in Dead Island: Riptide today. It helped him pay off GTAV. Used games aren't so bad.

I'm noticing a pattern with these "insiders"
What he wrote actually makes sense. If the engine isn't ready for next gen, then how can MGV be released for PS4?
Verendus might be bullshitting
I'm still super hyped.
I'm noticing a pattern with these "insiders"
not all "insiders" are cut from the same cloth. People seem pretty clear that CBOAT is legit, Fastmortimer has gotten some info right, but i dont know anything about Verendus, or this other guy.
E3 will reveal many things, and some wont be posting here anymore I dont think.
I won't pretend to know anything about engines and software development but then why is Kojima running MGSV on PC's and then admitting the current gen game "probably" won't look like that?
Mark Cerny must not know anything about the PS4 hardware then.

Yeah, but this may change my plans of buying both consoles. I guess I'll stick with one now.

I'm still excited as well. But I do wish Sony would just get it over with. Good or bad news. Just come out and say what they're doing. It's probably best to get the bad news out of the way so the anger could die down before their showing.

again wouldn't a copy/paste of the system make the PS4 DOA in Japan?
I mean isn't the used game market freaking huge over there?

Strange how people are trying to justify what Microsoft is doing by saying Sony will do the exact same thing.

I'm honestly a bit confused on the DRM thing which, I'm not sure will be covered at E3. Maybe you guys can clarify.
Correct this if wrong please:
MS posted that
Sony states that they will not force DRM, that its up to the publishers.
Doesn't this lend to the concept that, when it comes to used games, the to companies may be on the same footing in that its up to the publishers to allow a game to be sold used as well as how they are sold?
I'm hoping this is clarified by Sony at E3, because, as I said, I'm a bit confused.

Yes please, for the sake of less bullshit and fake news!
All those bits of probably fake news are ruining all the excitement for many people!
Absolutely, and not just any E3. THIS WAS SUPPOSE TO BE NEXT GEN UNVEILING HYPE.
What credibility are you talking about? I'm just giving my opinions and guesses like everyone else and I'm not an insider.
I've never hyped the Ninja Theory reveal, I was just discussing with other people if the fact that Tameem was at Playstation meeting could mean something relatively to a E3 announcement and that's it.
Actually I happen to have a friend who work with them and I asked him about possible big announcements from them, he said that he likes his job
