It's a very popular serie of virtual girlfriend games that started on the DS. There is a number of japanese courting video games where you win when you get the girl (or more exactly: one of the girls), but the original idea behind LovePlus is that the meat of the game is what happens after that...

While it is not totally wrong, it should be mentioned that Sony had been involved in video games for a while before the PlayStation. Notably, they were among the first to make MSX computers in the early '80s (think Japanese version of the C64, so a very game oriented 8-bit computer). Amusingly...

This guy is insane or is a con artist. I mean he cannot not realize after the 20 minutes it took him to record this demo that no one in the known universe will play a 2 hours game session with this thing. End result: the only markets are amusement parks, arcades and non-game applications...

Basel: the bane of EPL sides! 6 points against Chelsea, but watch them get knocked out by winning 2 points against Bucharest and none against Schalke!

The $75 of the Kinect is included in the $471. XB1's ESRAM on the die boosts the CPU price, but the PS4's faster RAM is more expensive as is its GPU, so I am not too sure where the extra cost of the XB1 comes from. Possibly from components related to the video in (connectors, decompression units).

It's a multiple choice poll, so only the 'none of the above' number is affected by the addition of the PC options.

Chain posting wuwu... Searching for sales number of key franchises earlier, I noticed VGChartz has now a category for pre-ordered games in the US. I am not sure how reliable this data is, but it has the PS4 versions of Watch Dogs and Destiny at about 150% of the XB1 versions (and waaaay ahead...

About music games: I think they had a multidimensional problem with no obvious solution. One dimension is the gameplay: very difficult to make it evolve from a game to the next. Another dimension is the track list: people don't want to buy the same songs over and over after each new game...

I am really not sure the money they would make in additional game sales would beat the money they make on hardware sales and licensing fees.

A long way yes, but it wouldn't instantly make her forgive him. He still was a terrorist at some point and still fled after the bombing. In both occasions, Dana could legitimately feel like her father acted without considering the impact it would have on his family, even if he had reasons and...

Answering this question proved a little more complicated than expected. PS4 launched in Canada and the United States and is launching this Friday in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal...

I read there is a comet visible these days that is getting near the sun. Some of you guys with telescopes took some pictures of it?

Played the demo of this and I was shocked at how ugly (I understand it's a 3DS port, but the problem here is art direction, not poly count) and poorly animated it was and how terrible the friction was (the feel of connecting with the enemies with the attacks, the feel of the weight of the...

On a side note, I tried the PSN demo of Mirror of Fate (so the HD port of the 3DS game) and I found it to be shockingly craptacular in just about every aspect. I was surprised to see it at around 70% on metacritics. EDIT: Oh there is a topic dedicated to it... nm...

I assume it must be 10ish percent at most (what does Google Analytics say?), but it's true it might have an impact on the 'buy PS4 soon' category (maybe 7 or 8 votes that otherwise would be 'own' votes).

We have 236 votes at the moment and I doubt the proportions will change much from there. Unsurprisingly, considering the history of the board, PC dominates. It might be helped by the fact that even PC that are three or four years old are still 'current' because of multiplatform development...

They will probably never explain it indeed, but I don't find it that unbelievable if you consider it from the angle of a chain of opportunities rather than a complex machination. If you are a mossad agent in Mumbai and notice the wife of a top level CIA guy is around, it can't hurt to try and...

This Bomberman clone looks terrible. Camera angle + light effects = seeing jack shit in a kind of game where seeing clearly the situation is key.

The thing is, there really is no good way to go about it and here they managed to make both the "16 days later" title AND the montage! The best solution could be to still have plot elements during the training period for the other characters and periodically hop back to the guy in training or...

The training montage was a bit laughable, but overall it was still a strong episode. I like the play and liked how Saul handled the senator issue. I would say something about the mossad guy being a little easy to catch, but a few year backs a couple mossad agents were arrested in Switzerland...

I don't watch this show but... shouldn't big spoilers for a recently aired episode be in the thread for the show allowing people who will watch it later to avoid the thread instead of the whole TV forum?

What do you plan to do with the sound?

With your avatar, Superbad was the obvious choice.

The lack of archiving of the streams with Twitch on PS4 makes me think a subscription model to allow PS4 users to save their streams is in the cards.

Yeah.... the 'playroom' :Castle Vidcons: Comic #123- The Playroom

I guess the Kinect is not meant to be put directly on top of the XB1?

At 400k to keep, I would have given it a long consideration. At 40k, it's a no brainer to me: I spend 40 millions in a month. That probably requires some planning though, because it's a lot of money and little time to only spend on services and consumables (assuming you cannot make donations or...

This whole topic should be called Legends of the Fall.

Just finished reading a small dictionary of architecture (what can I say, it's instructive and convenient to read during 5-10 minutes bus travels), andSnow White, a pretty brilliant play by early 20th century swiss authorRobert Walser(a genius). It's set after the events that lead to the tale...

I still don't see it. I am convinced that a good VR headset could provide a great gaming experience, but I am also convinced that it simply cannot be anything else than a niche of the video game market. Why? Because it is too extreme an experience, too removing, making it socially difficult...

If porn was defined as 'something you can masturbate to' pretty much everything would be porn for at least a small group of people.

Huh? What happened there? The only scenario I can think of is that you had a mod'ed PS1 and that improved region locking down the road made the mod no longer work.

I doubt titillation is the goal of Von Trier.

In the streamers' defense, 'playroom' sounds like an inviting euphemism.

I don't know the specifics for Madden, but if the match-making uses latency as a factor, a bigger user base should help getting more often matched with people closer to you. That being said, the latest Madden sold only about 25% more on X360 than on PS3. The older the editions the bigger the gap...

Romancing the Stone

It would be tough to make it work. At least if you want to preserve the mood, pace and narrative style of the game.

For reference, the 1+ million XB1 sales happened in the following 13 countries: Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, United Kingdom, United States and New Zealand. Note that Australia and the UK were strong Xbox 360 territories.
