Maybe just something better than the Xbone lineup.

But Sony has been winning over MS anyway, purely by not being complete arrogant assholes. So I guess they haven't had much reason to push hard for quality games yet.



Works for me.

It's usually just the drought within the first year, there aren't many consoles that had a killer app on launch or within the first year.
That takes some time, and the next year looks promising for some great games so far.
The Sony event and the VGX Awards may have something good for 2015 as well, so I doubt it's gonna take that long anymore until the first really stunning games arrive.

I expect quality original content, sure.

I'm not adverse to a port or two but it shouldn't be your tentpole title of the year on a new console.

The Order: 1886 looks well guff too.

It was just one hell of a critical acclaimed title that really improved with the remaster.
I get your criticsm, but as I said above, it takes some time until the games arrive.
Gamescom already had some promising stuff with Wild and Tomorrow Children.

Fuck yeah, the Last Guardian. We will all cry tears of joy.

You guys use Chrome (I do)? Maybe that's the issue. Still nothing here.

I find it hard to complain seeing how fucking packed 2015 is doe.

Looks like a good year, for sure.

Xbox One is looking a bit more compelling (for me) though.

 

[Hixx]

If Nintendo dropped the Wii U to a competitive price (£150) then it'd be the console to own.

But they still want £250+ for it...

Ofc.
I have fully embraced Google. I run Chrome on my Macs.

Too lazy for that shit. But the gif there works fine.

A big toys retailer in The Netherlands is selling them for 200 euros this week. The peasant edition with 8GB though.

 

[Lana Del Rey]

So there's a chance?

Cup required?

I would only cry tears of joy if we finally get Shenmue or Yakuza back in the west...
Fucking Sega.

Good thing 2015 already has on of the Game of the Generation contendor with Persona 5.

PC breh. Pillars of Eternity and The Witcher 3, Bloodborne on PS4. All you need. All anyone needs.

Yeah it's a bit crazy, isn't it.

I'd love one but I know that there will be about 10 games I want over it's lifespan so can't justify spending an arm and a leg

I do really want a PC :/

Might wait until a year or two when they outclass the next gen consoles considerably though.

That new AC trailer christ.....mega spoiler like so be careful (as if people give a fuck about AC story though)

what a waste that franchise is becoming though. Enjoyed AC4 despite itself. A rip roaring adventure but for a series which is made or broken on it's setting they haven't had a really absorbing one since probably the first.

And they go and do the bleeding French Revolution. Holy mackrel.

Oh well. At least Far Cry 4 is out soon. Gimme dat glorious Elephant based buffoonery. Looks like it's FC3 turned up to 11, which should be smashing

I like how the time periods changes is just darker textures.

Yep me too. I will buy it eventually.

50% off on Transistor on Steam. It's mineeeeee.

I'm actually the opposite, French Revolution is actually more exciting to me (the history is fascinating) than that Pirate stuff. As fun as sailing ships may be, it's not what I play that series for. Unity will probably be the first one I play since Revelations (which was just dull).

 

[jts]

Massive early adoption of the PS4 and PS+ betrayed the buyers' best interest.

Sony could lax.

PSN doesn't work half the time.
PS+ offers are crap. DC went from launch game free on PS+ to just delayed game, fuck PS+, and it's not even a fantastic one.

Sony didn't get EA Access.

Destiny is crap.

I don't feel completely salty because I didn't buy mine at launch price. It was 400 euro with FIFA. And I certainly squeezed the worth out of FIFA

Very good Netflix player too. Where's my fucking remote tho, Sony.

 

[Linius]

Yep me too. I will buy it eventually.

Bart Smith breh, 200 euros if that's something for you.

200 euro + Bayonetta would have done it for me. Nintendoland..pls linius

At least a cheap console. If you want the MK8 bundle you pay 300. You do get more memory space with that one though.

That's why I'm waiting for a better deal. The console isn't going to have a long life anyway, so the price will go down soon.

Same.
There aren't that many games I'm interested in, not gonna get it for that price.

 

[jtb]

what's wrong with the French revolution? AC is pretty boring but 2 had best setting, by far. the one game in the series where the atmosphere of the environments + the music + a half-decent story made up for how dull and repetitive the gameplay was.

 

[Steverulez]

PS+ offers are crap.

I thought PS+ on PS4 was actually pretty good?

That might be because on Xbox One I have to deal with MS only throwing me one bone a month, though

 

[Yen]

what's wrong with the French revolution?

Applying antiquity-era republican ideals to the modern, despotism, the replacement of liberty with authority, I mean come on.

 

[Hixx]

An awful lot of PS4 PS+ games are just ports of old indie games. Some of them are new but it's honestly no better than Games with Gold if you're only on PS4.

PC's already do.

They're absurd because they're flat out wrong. It'll be the same when CoD launches and whatever else is coming, they're massively overinflated.

Fuck those game devs, not supporting their inability to optimize the games for PC

 

[Broder Salsa]

Evil Within was 100% bullshit. It runs fine for me with my fairly old system, a system that was well below what their requirements said.

March 2015. The Pillars of Eternity Guidebook Volume One goes on sale on March 11th, so around there, I reckon.

Most of that is just e-peen marketing, and requirements are usually just a rough guide anyway. Especially if the game is from Ubisoft.

Did they actually say March now?

niceeee

Fuck dribbling, fuck super goals. Passes like that get me wet.

They didn't, I'm guessing based on when the official guidebook is supposed to come out. It's a safe bet.
