Oh man, not again. 5 in the morning. I remember staying up all night for the PS4 launch event and thinking "that's it?" - no way I'm staying up this time haha. But gotta wake up for it sure.
Oh, so it's in 4.5 or 5.5 hours?

Well, I suppose about as well as you can realistically expect after a major loss in the family, but as I said in another thread, we're all in good spirits and really coming together as a family, trying to make any preparations we need to do a team effort, and the costs are a little steep, but we'll manage because we have to. Anything less than a proper service would be regrettable for everybody involved, so we're really trying to do our best. We had a pretty nice family night last night that, surprisingly, included a family viewing of the latest south park episode lol.
Every bit as important, however, is that we have all re-committed quite seriously to stay in touch as much as possible, both via phone and in person without any long durations in between, because everybody was stunned with the loss of my uncle. He's been there for everybody in this entire family at all major times of need. When you could rely on nobody else, he was always there. This is the guy everybody shared things with, the guy everybody found easy to talk to, the guy everybody everywhere loved to death. He was my uncle, but I never thought of him that way. He was much more like a brother to me. You know the type, the big brother you're happy just to be around or be associated with. Not to get any sappier than I've already been, but my father wasn't around much when I was growing up, and it wasn't really until I heard that I lost my uncle on Tuesday that I realized that the only reason I never missed having a father around in the first place is because I had one the whole time. Lots of awesome memories, so in a lot of ways it's those memories that are keeping everybody in the family strong and together right now. Doing precisely what he did when he was with us. So, again, in really high spirits, thanks for asking.
And, separately, what's been really amazing and totally unexpected during this is how both the Ryse team and Turn 10 have reached out to me regarding the loss in my family, even going so far as to send me copies of each game. I mean, there's just no words for that. It's just really awesome.

Then, I will take note of the IP xD
Anyone buying DR3 online so you can just play it anytime?
Seems like the perfect game like gta where you just go to fuck around when taking a break from whatever other games you are playing?
MS should have step up with a console too

For watching, not streaming. Xbox live back here.
You can't stream, but you can watch streams.
Twitch viewing app is there at launch. Twitch streaming comes in early 2014. They said they weren't happy with its current state (apparently they have grander ambitions than with PS4 Twitch integration).
That's just an app to watch streams. You can't broadcast yet

9 or 10 outside my best buy. Rumor is they have 20 to 25 for those of is in the "walk in" line. They have a separate line for the preorders.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
I hate all of you getting the X1 day 1. >=(
I'll probably have to wait for Christmas.

SHIPPED! Day One, baby!
I think I'm looking at getting NFS Rivals, maybe Forza 5 also though I don't know if I need two racing games, Dead Rising, Killer Instinct and Powerstar Golf.

If it makes you feel I have to wait about 30 days too

You in line or just drove by?
Lost my job a few months ago and struggling to find anything. It really sucks, especially at times like this.
voice is working pretty well for him except for "record that"
