Sounds like Sony are giving out PS4's at that review event in NY on 11/12th??
They aren't getting them early according to Jeff. They'll do something similar like with the WiiU and just have a stream of all the launch games.

It's not a Giantbomb console launch if they don't talk about how they went to multiple stores in order to get some weird launch title that barely anyone knows about.

Giant Bomb should just say "fuck it" to the PS4 launch and do an all day stream of X: Rebirth because I said so.

Only one I can think of that they may have trouble with is Zoo Tycoon.
Could always buy it through the console itself.
Who types like this?
True, but would have to wait for it to download.
The "live stream for charity" thing they are doing will be, surprise, live streamed,

That's my daily giggle quota filled. Thanks, Patrick.

When they busted out the DualShock 4 on the last UPF I was hoping someone had an apple on them. Alas...
I love launch day stories.

When does that happen? I only watched the first 45 minutes because of all the Tested podcasts and video this weekend.

pretty sure the entire point is the live stream to get donations
It's because they slurred the name of General Radec.

Pretty sure no one has a PS4 yet, unless I missed something. If you are talking about Gies taking those Battlefield 4 screen caps, I think he probably captured the footage from a review event.
No. They talked about something they weren't going to talk about and I had no idea what it was they were talking about.
Agreed.
I'm looking forward to the live streaming of the consoles, especially the PS4 with it launching in the US a couple of weeks before the UK.

Says who?
Well it was my own conjecture since there were rumors of not PS4 for journos and then gies posted on tweeter that he could direct capture from bf4 footage..
I don't care that Polygon has them, and it was more of a joking tongue in cheek comment,

Pretty sure EA just let folks capture footage from an event. They don't have the actual hardware themselves.
Arthur Goose was complaining on twitter when Sessler was bleeting - so I would guess they will get it 2 days before release, like the rest.
Rumour was that only one web based outlet is getting really early units as some sort of dirty exclusive deal. All eyes were on IGN but they claim not. Gamespot have been quiet and if it isn't IGN, they are the only really big player left. Assuming the whole rumour was not BS to start with.

Gies moaning? Never. Fucking manchild.

Everytime the little one ends up on the left and the big one on the right my brain just can't process the switch and I automatically mix up the sticks.
I liked Brothers quite a bit but the control scheme never did click for me. It reminded me of controlling the brothers in Mario & Luigi games, which I've also never been a fan of. Powerful in spots but ended up being a distraction more than anything else overall.
Not that far, still a ways to go.
Maybe a fourth or a sixth.
Edit: Actually, no, maybe a half... I can't really remember.
I took it to mean the PS4 was out first, but funny that he has to think about which platform he wants the review game on.

I found the controls in Brothers actually a little too intuitive and it made all the puzzles seem rote and simplistic. Makes me wonder if maybe Starbreeze was between a rock and a hard place trying to tune the puzzles so most people could solve them and leaned towards the easy side because of all the work they put into visuals and story. I thought the story was good (especially the
) but nothing necessarily that special. It was just cool to see a story that had its pivotal moment be
