No, it really is. We should've had a comparison video near it's announcement.

And not everyone has played it. Why not release some footage like I mentioned to get newcomers hyped? It doesn't matter how new it is. What remaster has had its comparison video released two weeks before its release?

Incredibly lame.

You make it sound like the game was finished when they announced it. They apparently just sent out/are sending out review copies. You can see plenty of trailers from the PS3 version if you want to see gameplay. 2 weeks is plenty of time to come to a decision.

I imagine they haven't released any yet because they were still working on the game, which is most likely not being worked on by a full team. That and it seems like they were still doing work on getting it to 60 fps pretty close to it going gold.

Why would they show off something before they are ready to? That would hurt them more than waiting until they are ready to show it off. Maybe it is incredibly lame, but it isn't a big deal. If they were good to show off footage 1 month ago I'm pretty sure the release date would be half a month ago.

ND/SCEA should troll everyone next week by only posting a Remastered title screen shot the day before the full media barrage.

We'd get a good look at shadow res/filtering improvement though.

And 'PRESS (OPTIONS/X/ANY) BUTTON' ?

What are some decent ones without breaking the bank?

Depends on what you consider breaking the bank. The PS4 Golds are excellent and they cost 100. Check Amazon though cause I snagged them for 90.

With the Golds you'll also get access to the TLOU sound app that hopefully gets released on the 29th.

I hope it was changed to Press X button.

Thanks, yeah those sound good, 80 atm on amazon.

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
I was going to do the same, while looking for them online I stumbled upon an adapter for my turtle beaches that I bought last year. Saved me $70.

I was on the fence until I found out they'll work on my PS3, PC, and Macbook. Plus I had $100 in rewards points to burn and it was a slow day at work :)

I'd like to have a conversation with any developer who seriously considers wording that screen as "Press Options Button To Begin". *looks over at DICE*

I played BF4 on PC, I can't believe they really did that.

The root of the problem is the button being named "Options" in the first place, though.

It's two weeks away. No real footage of pics out except scraps. Just because it's being made, it doesn't mean there's fuck-all to share with us. Just release a batch of pics, a cutscene or two. We're not stupid, we know it's a work in progress. But getting a sense of the differences would be nice.

Instead we've got people literally picking pics apart from find out the graphical upgrades etc. That's not the way it should be for a game releasing in two weeks. TWO. WEEKS.

It's going to be awesome, the only question is how awesome.

They're taking something that was awesome and making it more awesomer and I can't even fucking hold all this awesomeness

Its the same in Call of Duty: Ghosts. It looks a bit weird, but thinking about it, pressing a start button to get into a menu could also sound weird, but we're simply used to it. Thats probably the idea behind the name change of the button since "start" serves more as a menu button in games today.

I would honestly pay a decent sum of money to be able to erase my TLoU experience from my mind. I envy those who are going to play this for the first time on PS4

It's even funnier since you can press any button to start BF4. Fuck the police, I'm pressing X

Oh god that gif murdered me.

Both consoles have the same problem. "Press Menu to begin"

They should just default to X/A to begin. Fortunately, most games allow that already but there are some outliers.. like Killer Instinct.

I am more upset about the BROTASTIC montage intro they have on PS4, before it shows the splash screen. I mean, wtf is that. It's not on PC.

Speaking of comparing TLOU to RE4: anyone use the 180 quick-turn after the forced tutorial? Always reminds me of RE4, doing that tutorial; never found a use for the move in TLOU, though.

The only time I think I really used that was with Ellie and
Bill when you are heading towards the school and you are in the big open area. Running around and letting them do a big portion of the work helps.

Just once per playthrough at that one part featuring a certain generator. It is always a quick 180,followed by run for my damn life.

There is no issue. Don't quote me and bother responding to me if all you're going to do at the end of it is tell me what I already know and say "I'm not sure what the issue is." Don't agree or care for what I write, don't quote me.

The first thing you said was

Gah that's ridiculous. It's out in how many weeks? :/

How do we still not have gameplay footage?

HOW!?

I'm not really sure where you said there was no issue. If it bothers you that much that there is no footage that is fine. You are more than welcome to that opinion. All I will say is that in my opinion I'd rather have them finish the game and then show us when they are ready.

I don't see how me asking a couple valid questions (and I do think they are quite valid) equals "issue". You state your opinion and that's fine, I state mine and it's an "issue". I got the info I needed after those two posts. I wasn't going to continue going nuts about it. I just posted my opinion and people quoted me. And I defended my view.

So like I said, don't agree with me opinion? You really don't have to reply to it. But if you do, I'm going to defend it. And please, don't give me the condescending "what's the problem bro?" thing. It's lame.

The "what is the issue" wasn't trying to be condescending, it was in response to:

If "what is the issue" comes off as condescending then this is thoroughly hyperbolic. Your opinion is fine, you posted it and I am able to post my opinion in response.

awesome movie(granted the first movie would have been the better comparison) and an amazing game, I'm not sure what he was trying to prove here?
"This thing is basically these other things put together" is for some reason seen as a valid complaint by some. It's like everything has to be completely new and unique to justify its existence.

I don't want to start any meta-discussion but a quick inquiry to those who own the ps4 gold headset: how comfortable are they in your opinion? I've been looking for a relatively cheap but decent sound solution for my console gaming and this could be it.
