Anyone have Origin issues? It would come up with 2 boxes overlapping each other on FIFA and BF. I could only get it to one box if I hit square or triangle and then I could hit the check box and next, but nothing would happen. I would search, but I'm on mobile and can't search the thread.

Still it's bs. Gonna take months for them to get me a knew system probably. I'm at the point now where I am thinking of just returning it tomorrow at walmart and waiting till the new year to buy another.

They are replacing systems within a week apparently.

I have never been more frustrated at a game than the utter stupidity that is that Killzone mission where you're fighting off hundreds of enemies. What the fuck GG? What an incomprehensible train wreck that totally made me not want to finish the game.

Look behind you and use the machine gun to finish them fast.

Ok. I tried searching but I couldn't find it.

Am I imagining the white light is pulsing at times (sitting at the main menu)? What does that indicate (nothing bad, just curious).

Nah, FIFA is working fine for me. No idea about BF though.

Microsoft isn't as handy with making hardware. To prevent further problems dealing with overheating, they have taken as many precautions as possible. Including making the xbone so massive.

I've seen this argument multiple times and I just don't buy it. If the power draw from all the components are known (which they have to be), then the heat generated is a fairly simple equation. Designing around those known parameters is relatively straight-forward and is done on a daily basis by all electronics companies.

My opinion is that MS wanted the X1 to look like it fit in a standard 19" hi-fi component rack to sit next to your AV amplifier etc. and not look out of place.

Is there a way to use the touchpad to move around in the virtual keyboard? I could've sworn the Giant bomb guys using some alternate method to doing it than left stick/dpad but i cant get it working.

Nvm. Figured it out. That's insane to use the gyro to move cursor.

I think if you hit triangle or square (I forget...the keyboard actually shows the button) then you can use the controller as a pointer to input text. The trackpad isn't supported in that way.

I think it is pretty crappy that Sony offers 30 days of PS+ with the system, but you can only take advantage of it if you put up a credit card.

Which you can remove right after?

Of course the entire idea is to get you roped into these services and hope you stick with it, which is easier if your payment info and such is already entered so you can just set it and forget it. This is like basic business.

So this is a pretty stupid question but can US GAF confirm PSN games purchased from an overseas PSN account work on any account associated with the PS4?
 
Is there any reliable place that tracks and announces when stores get more inventory? I'm guessing the major retailers are banking some supply for Black Friday, but I'm trying to avoid that fiasco.

...in the United States.
