How can you guys make a game sound totally uninteresting and interesting at the same time?

Because its a slow game that seems dull but is actually awesome.

If I didn't have prior knowledge about it and someone was attempting to sell me, I'd think it was uninteresting, too.

I can't believe the Nets hired Jason Kidd as a coach. Seems like just a marketing thing.

Well, keep in mind that this is the team that constantly tried to act like they were owned and operated by Jay-Z in order to seem cool, when in reality he owned 1/15th of one percent of the Nets. That's just 0.0006% of the team for all you non-math folks (you don't even want to know how small it is in CB units).

I feel pretty solid about the hire as a Knicks fan considering the failure rate of superstars that attempt to be head coaches. Plus the fact that he has no experience as a coach, even as an assistant. I'm sure Deron Williams will find some reason to undermine him within the first month of the season.

That has to be a joke, right? Pathetic.

Also, Twitch wants to bail out on MS exclusivity already:

http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/12/t...med-from-any-platform/?a_dgi=aolshare_twitter

"The strategy for Twitch is twofold right now: we want to make it as easy as possible to broadcast games and we want to make it easy as possible to view games," DiPietro said. On a hardware level, Twitch will be baked into the Xbox One operating system, allowing players to stream any titles they choose with the option to include audio and video overlays from their Kinect sensor. On a software level, the company is actively pursuing developers to add the Twitch streaming functionality within the game.

DiPietro says, despite an exclusive agreement in place with Microsoft for Xbox One integration, there is nothing in its current agreement that precludes games containing the Twitch SDK to broadcast from any platform, including the PlayStation 4. Franchises that have (or will have) Twitch functionality include Activision's Call of Duty and Sega's Company of Heroes.

PlayStation 4 also includes the ability for users to stream their gameplay sessions to the web, though the company has partnered with uStream to make that feature possible.

I guess it doesn't matter what console it is, you guys will still get games to play for only a week!

Madden is the only true way.

Ps

Ez the guys working on KI are from double helix but not the same as the ones who did green lantern. They are fighting game enthusiasts who are giant SF3 fans.

You should base your opinion of a game on the game, not the pedigree of the developer!

I'm a huge fan of MvC. By your logic, I could make an awesome fighting game.

Are you a game designer? The point was that after reading up on them and watching interviews I get the vibe that they are fighting game enthusiasts who are putting together a game fight fans will love, not "double helix those guys that did green lantern"

I know. Funniest thing I've read all week! Return of a franchise no one really asked for by a developer who creates nothing but garbage.

Sorry FMT, you won't convert us to the KI bandwagon.

Also, those who ordered the standard PS4 from Amazon check your email. Sounds like a bunch were upgraded to launch edition.

Truthfact: If MS does not drop their 24 hour big brother check in on game purchases I'll never buy Xbone. Don't care what games the system has. I have plenty of other devices to play games.

Tom Chick TLOU

He is, nearly literally, taking her under his wing. It’s a lovely bit of animation, and an iconic image for The Last of Us: a grizzled action hero, his arm around a frightened young girl, protecting her while he ducks behind cover, encircling her. They are almost nestled together. She is the manifestation of his vulnerability. It’s one of the many examples of heart-aching expressiveness between the game’s devastating prologue and the even more devastating final four syllables.

So basically last four syllables are something like "I'm so sorry" as one character kills the other one.

Not really. I care about gameplay and every review I have read says the gameplay is meh.

I already know the story will be fucking shitty tripe. It's a video game.

I got an email from Best Buy saying that the PS4 release date changed to 11/30/13. Used to be 12/31/13. It's probably another placeholder though.

Sony should channel their inner PS2 and go for 10/26!

Also, Planetary Annihilation early access is now on Steam. But it is $89.99? o_O
