Finally getting around to the podcast. Glad they were wrong about Neo being at E3, with House's comments today.
Kyle's right though. They need to talk about Neo very soon. They're just making the mistake of not mentioning the elephant in the room.

Yeah I get that. Maybe it is farther away than anyone thinks though.
Yeah it sounds like it now. Also, if the leaks hadn't happened then sure, they're right to not talk about it until it's closer to the date.
But right now, I think they need to clear the air a bit. They don't need a full revel but maybe something similar to what Reggie said last year about the NX. "It's real but we're not ready to talk about it"

That SIFTD line. Ooft!
These bets have inspired me to do something similar with my brother during the Euros.
If Giroud scores tonight I have to log into his PSN account and play a PES2016 game online every day for the rest of the month to bump up his MyClub points. If Giroud fails to score he has to finish Dark Souls 3 by the end of the month.

Okay, Brandon Jones comments on Siege was just objectively wrong. Has he played a second of that game?
It's one of the best shooters of the generation and easily the most unique and wouldn't work as episodic as it's essentially a Hero shooter. It's like saying launch Overwatch with just Genji and Bastion and then release the other characters episodically. Just no. Also, there's a very strong cult following of the game, just because the wider spectrum isn't talking about it, doesn't mean nobody is.
This is sort of what I mean by I wish if the guys aren't massively interested in a game or don't know a lot about it, just don't really talk about it.
Yeah, that's sort of what I was alluding to. But an interview to FT isn't the same as on stage at E3.

I'm still butt hurt because to me R6 was always a great single player tactical experience.
Even the Vegas game, which were pretty brain dead, still had a fun enough single player.

This is different to the standard end of generation console announcement though, where no-one cares if the old consoles suddenly drop off a cliff. If the Neo isn't coming out till October and they announce it in June, what are they going to do with the current PS4 in the four months in between? I think the best idea is to announce these iterative consoles as close as possible to release. So if it's coming out in October, Gamescom in August or TGS in September would be the better bets.
While we're on the subject, Brandon's point that Sony shouldn't try to sell us on the Neo was weird. It seemed like he was suggesting they pull a Xbone DRM style announcement, by rushing through it and hoping people don't get pissed. Sounds like the worst possible way to announce it, especially for people like me in the middle who aren't upset it's coming out but need a reason to actually buy it. I'm not in the habit of buying consoles just for the sake of having them.
Anyway, loved the betting special. Go Huber!
I took it as him not wanting them to devalue the existing PS4 that everyone has in their home already... Tell us what it is but don't make it seem like it's an essential upgrade and that we'll be totally missing out by not spending the hundreds of dollars to, well, keep up with the Joneses
(unfortunate colloquialism and subject matter overlap)

100% Bosman won't be at the MS one.

So basically "don't be EA Sports"? No selling the new model by shitting on the old one? I can agree with that. Sony needs to walk a fine line of selling the Neo while at the same time reassuring existing PS4 owners that they aren't being left behind.
Exactly how i understood it too and i agree, i'm not sure you wanna make a big fuzz about it and devalue over 40 million PS4's out there.

Watching the betting special and it's fantastic. That's exactly why I love them. It's so damn good.
Funny, I had trouble finding it the other day too. Link: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1230785

Yep! No problem!
The website is cool. Has forums and stuff too.
I don't think the site was intended to be revealed just yet hence the lack of media surrounding it. It was proabably going to be one of the E3 surprises during the stream concerning Easy Allies.
He is always on their streams pretending to be shawn Layden, usually people ignore him and pay attention only when some of the EZA guys notice him, lol.
Edit: About the Website, really nice, clean and responsive, it actually surprised me. Good job, guys.
Awwww, booooo

I don't think we were meant to know about it. Probably just a shadow release to get some users on and bugs worked out, with a full reveal to come this weekend during E3.
It's silly. Giant Bomb isn't a group of video-game hating cynics, and the chat parroting out-of-context Gerstmann quotes to rile up EZA is just frustrating.

I felt like Ben was responding more to the people here on GAF and elsewhere that manage to take offense to Huber (et al)'s excitement about games.
Ben did say he really liked Giant Bomb and Jeff, although Huber and Brad clearly don't. They did agree that they are just opposites.
I kinda think this "Giant Bomb vs. EZA" thing for them being (rightfully or not) recognized as the representatives of Hype/Anti-Hype will continue being frustrating for you guys fans of both, unfortunately.
I wish everyone no hate, just Knack.

there's nothing to even say about this. It was a conversation that began and ended with complete respect. no one needs to keep recycling the same year old conversation from gaf to chat back to gaf
