NY here. Not a peep from Amazon. I'm scared, hold me.

Don't be scared, I'm also NY and haven't heard anything either. Further, I didn't receive a charge notification for PS4 until Thu. morning and it didn't even ship until late Thu. night. Got it around 6:30p on Fri. (UWS).

Thanks for the links. The CNN review sounds fantastic. I am glad the XB1 is getting such positive reviews, hopefully once both are out everyone can calm down and get back to enjoying gaming.

I think those are tokens for buying cars if you don't want to devote tens of hours(by tens I mean hundreds ) into the game.

What's the deal with the Kinect Sports Jet ski game? How much does it cost? Are there reviews for it?

No review that I know of. It's free (since it's only a demo of one of the sports, it probably doesn't have many tracks, maybe only one).

That would just take time away from arguing about resolution.

Kinect Sports Rivals Pre Season is free. Haven't seen any reviews or impressions of it.

EDIT: beaten

4 and Horizon had that as well. Not a big deal.

What is weird is if you buy 5 times the 0.99€ you'll have 500 coins instead of the 325 for 4.99€

 

[Macho Madness]

How much is Power Star Golf?

yeah but I can't find anywhere that there is micro transactions in F5...

Also, price makes no sens. You pay twice more for the same coins on the higher packs... this is not how you do micro transactons !

No idea on that one... maybe a placeholder?

 

[cool_dude]

I've seen the "Sony and MS are positioning their boxes as entertainment hubs" thing pop up in multiple reviews, the most recent being in that CNN piece linked above.

I don't know. Does it seem like Sony is marketing the PS4 as such? I've found it interesting how the two companies are talking different approaches (Sony = gamer heaven/ MS =all-in-one awesomebox).

Sony doing a 180 in their marketing now.

 

[FrankT]

Dat attach rate.

[dmg04]

Angry Birds: Star Wars is a launch title?! hahaha awesome!

 

[Phat Michael]

Yep, gameclips are up on the smartglass app now. I've watched a few on the Windows 8 app.

kthxbye,

Same as Crimson Dragon or Lococycle ($20 - 20€, I think)

 

[Gary Whitta]

Going boxed, huh? Interesting.

It's like they don't want our money.

 

[grave_danger]

After seeing Forza 5 looking so nice, wish I hadn't cancelled my pre-order. I was trying to be "responsible" and not get both consoles at launch. Wonder if it's worth trying to hit Target or something Friday.

I can wait, but might be fun.

 

[backflip10019]

Curious about this, too. Looks fun on the IGN stream.

 

[Phat Michael]

Forza looks so sick. Love the rumble in the triggers. So Damn clean and smooth!

[DesertFox]

So what ever happened with the ass storm that was supposed to change the world? No reviewers seem to be having any major issues with their Xbox Ones...

 

[Papilloma]

$20, or €20, or £16.99. It looks good fun!!

Maybe there was a reason they weren't allowed to post it?

MS wrote some big checks.

[Justin]

Are games still only $10 at the ms store?

For the record, my PS4 Launch Ediiton delivered last Friday did not ship until Wednesday at 8PM ET.

I have you on my friends list and I just watched your Ryse clip. Man that is such an awesome feature.

lol at any of the shit he said coming true.

 

[Gary Whitta]

I keep telling myself DIGITAL DOWNLOAD FUTURE but I don't really want to be trying to download 200gbs of games on Day One, plus I want to be able to trade in Ryse. Fuck it, I'm ordering boxes from Amazon.

Clearly not on the inside track like Cboater and Throaway.

 

[FordGTGuy]

I didn't want to say anything about that, almost seems like a ban-able offense around here to question his track record lately.

I keep telling myself DIGITAL DOWNLOAD FUTURE but I don't really want to be trying to download 200gbs of games on Day One, plus I want to be able to trade in Ryse. Fuck it, I'm ordering boxes from Amazon.

I'm going Digital Download.

Bandwidth be damned.

Also just a reminder to send me a friends request if you're buying a Xbox One on launch night, GT = FordGTGuy.

SmartGlass app on iOS. Any good?

 

[shark sandwich]

Is there enough room on the HDD for all these?

Mine didn't ship until Thursday and got to my place Friday. From Virginia warehouse to house in Virginia.

 

[Atsumi]

NY here. Not a peep from Amazon. I'm scared, hold me.

Same here. I'm not scared, I know they'll deliver (they always do), but I just want that gratification of "hey you're specific console is preparing to see you soon."

"Not yet shipped" just isn't cutting it and I'm checking my email and/or Amazon at least every 30 minutes.

 

[PARANO1A]

Well my preorder from the MS Store through the 360 dashboard back in June still hasn't shipped. I'm in Australia so the midnight launch is in about 18 hours.

Not very happy. Called their call centre and was told I would have it on launch day by someone clearly reading a script.

 

[MauroNL]

So does anyone know if there are demo's available on Xbox Live at launch? I'm getting an Xbone but don't have any games pre-ordered yet, hoping to try a few through Xbox Live. Any idea what games have playable demo's this Friday?

 

[Dai101]

 

[TKR92]

along with Forza 5 limited edition

 

[Alx]

I suppose I'm not the only one, but I'm getting nervous for not getting information from the Microsoft Store. Do they usually ship & warn at the last minute ? Since they're using UPS, if it misses the Friday deadline, they won't bring it before Monday.

 

[fritolay]

It would be awesome if you could see if Conquest mode is working on XB1 BF4.

 

[Vestal]

fuck I fail.
