Since only reviewers and outlets will have played the launch games before launch what is wrong with wanting some opinions from people who have actually played the games to completion. If you want to decide on launch games to play on launch day there won't be many opinions outside of reviews. Unless a ton of people get early consoles.
being Canadian im not sure if we get that option but something similar would be nice. anyone else know if theres a physical upgrade option for bf4/ac4 ps3 to ps4?
I tried to find specifically Canada only but as far as I can tell, you guys are under the same market as the US on this occasion. I found these links

There is a digital upgrade and a physical upgrade option.

When someone gets the console on 14/15th can you check if you can create freind categories/folders for organsiation?
On the ad, there's a screen here at 2:55 which shows 58 friends allocated to a PS4 lovers list/group that the player shares a video with. Is this a default group or user generated?

Maybe this has even already been confirmed and I've missed it?

Genius lol!
doesn't say anything about physical upgrade option
For my fellow EU homies:
Only 18 days left. We can do thiiiiiiiiiiiis
Only 15 Working days
I believe EB Games is doing upgrades to next gen. Phone in to ask. I'm sure they're already getting enough phone calls with this question due to the Futureshop trade in deal haha.

It hurts!
The wait is going to be excruciating once the console's out in the US. I'm counting on NA-GAF to soothe me with impressions whilst I wait in my tub.

I created a Launch event on Facebook with some friends, just posting random stuff and trailers and listing what games we were getting. My brother is a die-hard Xbox fanboy to the fullest. I mean, complains about everything on the PlayStation. We can't even really have a conversation about next-gen because he gets too upset if you talk about the PS4.
As a joke, I added him and his fiancé to the event. My brother posted his "I'm not getting one" post and I joked around a bit, mainly using "ONE" jokes and various salty jokes. We typically joke around with each other on various things but his fanboy attitude took over. He removed me from Facebook and quit texting me.
So folks, lesson learned. Don't rub in how superior the PS4 is to the Xbone. They're extra salty right now.

Damn. If my dad, brother and I got THAT upset about abuse about our product choices we'd have killed each other by now.
It's non stop between the three of us.

I played the PS4 yesterday in a store (Bart Smit) Netherlands. It wasnt a smart move now the fcking wait is unbarable!
Btw the Dualshock4 feels amazing

Yikes, one of the first ones I made. And that was before I learned how to use tracking function in After Effects, so that's handkeyed (slitswrist)
Yeah here in the states it's only retailers that are doing it. Sony's official upgrade is digital only (and you still need the PS3 disc if that's what you bought)
I thought GameStop was doing a promotion. Not sure if it was $10, might have been. But them you obviously have to give back the disc. The official one you don't. But you still need the disc in the PS4 to start the digital upgrade copy.
Best option seems digital to digital. You get two games for $70 playable on two different systems.

My dad switched over after I showed him some stuff. He's now on the PS3 and waiting like me for this week. My brother went a little overboard. Just a little overboard lol. It's a game console. I'd hate to see what would happen if we disagreed with religion or politics.
Sadly, he just had his first child. But I really don't know who the child is in this situation.

And I'm going crazy here in Norway...damn it Sony unleash the beast already!
For the non-preorder people who will be in the trenches trying to secure a PS4: how early are you planning on going to your local gamestop/bestbuy/whatever? I'm likely going to gamestop since they're letting people without a preorder to set one up at around 6pm Thursday and trade stuff in to pay it off before midnight. Thinking 10am Thursday should be early enough. Worst case scenario I can run across the parking lot to Best Buy and try my luck there if the line gets capped.

Anybody have much experience with Amazon preorders? Mine shows a delivery estimate of Nov. 15 by 8pm. How accurate can I expect this to be? Is Amazon usually good about shipping things so that they arrive on release day?

In preparation for the ps4, I'm selling my ps3. To eradicate my account from it, I just go to system deactivation, then format right? Or should I do restore?
Yeah, the wait is a real killer. I'm feeling the exact same thing.
I already downloaded the app on my iPhone (EU).
It's coming out on the 13th for Android and iOS IIRC. But it looks like some Europeans are already installing the app on iOS.

I thought the EU app was hitting the store on the 22nd?
will check now.
Handkeyed - the only method in GIMP. I really need to get and learn how to use photoshop.
Yes, the only time I didn't get a game from Amazon on time, there was a hurricane.
Yeah was about to say that. The app will probably be either getting an update or being replaced by the new app.
I get immense pleasure from my collection. There are days when I can just sit in front of it and look at the cases and enjoy touching the plastic. I know it sounds really bizarre, but I guess fetish is part of the fun of collecting things that don't hold value.
Sometimes I will dump them all on the floor and realphabetize them.
The reality is that trade-ins do not make sense from an economic perspective considering the loss of value you get, and I replay old games alllll the time. I had my Saturn out a few weeks ago, I have an NES under my desk, I have an N64 hidden behind my desk drawers. Just doesn't really seem worth it to me.

Already got AC4 and COD for ps4, I can't choose between KZ or BF4. I'm thinking KZ might be better with no friends. =\
Edit: Nm I chose KZ for release and ordered it on Amazon.

I'm going to confirm gamestop has some extras then go there around 10am Thursday with fully charged Vita and music as well as a book. That and talking with other people in line should keep me occupied for the day.

Do we know yet what the boot up sound is? I would be very happy if it's the same as that 4theplayers commercial.

Give an additional 13 days to that and you get the 31 days we still have to wait until it releases here.
At least I'm buying another one for christmass.
