I'm glad I'm not the only one. XB1, maybe? Both consoles are using an architecture similar to AMD's GCN architecture, but the PS4 will be running at a higher clock with significantly quicker RAM. Unless Microsoft pulled off some sort of crazy optimisation magic with the Xbox One, it will be...

We include sales tax in our prices here in the UK, so, excluding VAT, it'd come to ?320, which is around $485usd. Since American companies like to round up when they bring their goods over the pond, I'd imagine it'd be around $400-450 in the US. I guess I'd like to add - there is no way this...

Paul Thurrott said yesterday that it would be shown at today's conference. I just checked his twitter and he seems fairly surprised that they didn't show it -https://twitter.com/thurrott/status/336902375795204097

https://twitter.com/CollarDuty This Twitter account is amazing.

Well, Microsoft is claiming that the new kinect can. I guess we'll find out whether they're telling the truth soon enough. They should have put an American flag on the front. I hear you American folks love that shit.

Haha, I forgot about that thing. I think the fact that you had to have a sensor attached to your finger limited the possible uses of the wii vitality sensor. If the new kinect can, in fact, accurately read heart rates without having to wear any extra hardware, I think there is some real...

Err, that is actually quite cool. A left 4 dead-esque AI director that reacts to heart rate could be pretty great, if done right. I believe Valve is working on similar tech at the moment. Edit -- Xbox One = Xbox America, I guess.

This might come as a shock to you, but there's an entire world outside of the US where the Xbox's TV stuff won't work.

They'll hear about it tomorrow in the news/on television, they'll see the adverts that will be online everywhere, and they'll hear about it from all of their friends. And do you know what they'll be saying? "Did you see Call of Duty on the new Xbox?!?!?". COD is already associated with the...

And I'll pass on the PS4 if that's the case. I don't have any allegiance towards Microsoft or Sony.

It was for the 'average gaming consumer'. What are the biggest gaming franchises that the majority of gamers care about? Fifa, Madden, Call of Duty, and Halo, all of which were represented at this conference. The people on this forum aren't 'average gaming consumers'.

http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/0...-one-analysis/ Yeah, I'll pass if there's a 'used game pass'. Good luck, Microsoft.

http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/05/xbox-one/ So the early leaked specs are probably true. The architecture should be pretty similar to that in the PS4, too.

I saw nothing of interest at the PS4 conference, and I saw nothing of interest here, bar Forza 5, maybe. I'd say Microsoft will probably come out looking the better of the two, though. They showed off Fifa, Madden, Call of Duty, and Halo, four of the biggest gaming franchises in the world...

"A brand new world!" What?

Wow, a woman on stage. Microsoft one upped Sony there. She looks like she should be presenting a cookery show or something, though.

Fifa is the highest selling game in Europe and Madden is one of the biggest franchises in the States. Microsoft knows who their audience is and, unfortunately, it's not us. It didn't look good enough to be pre-rendered. I imagine that's in game footage.

Cool, a bunch of stuff people outside of the US won't be able to use. And Skype. Does anyone honestly give a shit about using Skype on their TVs?

It looks like a Silverstone HTPC case. Not sure if I like it or not. The name is.. Strange, especially considering the release of the HTC One earlier this year. Edit - There's no way this asian guy has ever listened to a Deadmau5 song. Haha.

4.9 tflops? More than the Geforce Titan's 4.6 tflops? Yeah, I don't buy that at all.

So, this made me quite excited for tomorrow's event. https://www.facebook.com/mclarenautomotive PGR5? Fingers crossed.

This is the thread where we were discussing handheld gaming and stuff, right? I can't remember. My apologies if it isn't. -- I just got this App Annie gaming report in my inbox and it really surprised me. http://files.appannie.com/reports/AA...ort%201Q13.pdf TLDR; consumer spending...

If you liked Star Trek '09, you'll like this. If you didn't like Star Trek '09, this isn't going to change your mind about Abrams' vision for Star Trek. Personally, I enjoyed the hell out of it. Sure, there's some dumb plot holes, but I didn't really care. The action was great, the characters...

They said in their interview with Pete Tong that they'll be remixing the album to sound more Daft Punk-esque sometime in the future. Maybe a remix album? That'd be cool. I wouldn't worry about this changing the state of EDM. I think it might affect pop music, though.

Well, of course. r/daftpunk is where the die hards live. :P For me, I think this has definitely lived up to the hype. It's a lot better than I expected it to be. The only song I don't like is "doin' it right" - the rest of the album is pretty damn great. It's streaming in itunes now, btw...

This album sounds like Air, albeit a funkier, more upbeat version of Air. That's not a bad thing, though. Air are fucking amazing. The album version of 'Get Lucky' is a lot better than the radio edit. The album intro is way better than the one on the radio edit, and it seems to have a...

Giorgio by Moroder. Holy shit. My jaw dropped. What an incredible song. Just a shame about the shitty mp3 quality. Can't wait to hear a better quality copy.

Yeah, definitely seems legit. I just skimmed through the tracks and they sound good. Love the full 'get lucky' intro. Gonna go give it a listen now.

https://www.wetransfer.com/downloads...142214/72bc65# It's out. Grab it quick. Who knows how long the link will stay up for. Only 192kbps, sadly, but it's better than nothing.

This is hardly surprising. The F2P model is ingrained in the developing world. Most of the games in Asia, South America, and Eastern Europe are F2P with micro transactions, and consoles won't be able to make any inroads into these parts of the world unless they embrace the F2P payment model...

New Battlefront on Frostbite 3? Could be fun. Get it done, DICE.

It's been years since I've played GTA4 so maybe I'm not remembering things correctly, but couldn't you take a taxi to quickly get around places?

Pfft, $299, $300, it's all the same to me. I just saw this linked on another forum -- Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida -http://uk.gamespot.com/news/yoshida-...tion-4-6404291 His answer is.. Interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony started charging for multiplayer next gen.

Sure. The PA dev team said that they're trying to get it out before Google IO, so it should, hopefully, hit sometime in the next few weeks.

- Paul Thurrot -https://twitter.com/thurrott/status/330328052053733376 That makes a lot more sense. $299 + $360 = $659 So, the subsidised Xbox will cost $160 more over two years than the unsubsidised Xbox, assuming you don't sign up for Xbox Live Gold on the unsubsidised Xbox. Xbox Live...

2 reasons. Firstly, the notification shade is turned off in some apps, namely games and video apps. So, for example, if I get a notification of a new email while using an app that disable the notification shade, I need to exit the app I was using, pull down the shade, choose gmail, read...

I posted a few pages back about a Facebook Home-esque notification system coming to Paranoid Android, an Android ROM. Well, it appears that the PA team has included an alpha version of the notification system in their newest update, and it's pretty damn impressive. Looking forward to...

Has there been any gameplay footage released yet? Or just these story trailers?

I read this book about 3-4 years ago. Loved it. By the end of the book, you'll want to visit Barcelona, guaranteed. Enjoy the book, folks.
