    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    Heh, I got more of a Batman vibe from it. And turns out, this game is from Warner Bros too. I'm betting they got combat engine and detective mode assets from the Batman teams.

    Don't see the big deal. Resolution and/or Framerate are going to be the tradeoff with the power differences going forward. That's always going to be the case unless a game doesn't push the systems much. That's the price you pay for buying an Xbone.

    I'm not a fan of the Hybrid drives. They have a 8GB SSD cache, but that's not great on a console, especially with 40gb+ games, and it has to learn what data to cache and you basically have to play the same game over and over for it to be decent. The pure 7200 drives are overall better, imo...

    Played the Lightning Returns demo. Was not bad at all and I'm pretty excited for it and look forward to messing around with the game's systems and playing through it multiple times to get everything. Note about the Pre-Order costumes: Apparently all of them will be available post-launch if...

    Yeah, just played through it myself. It is some powerful shit. If you have PS+ it's free right now and anyone who hasn't played it should immediately. I just finished it and man, I need a fucking hug.

    Meh, he has inside knowledge about shit like that. There's a lot you can infer from it. And readying the lines to produce 1m/month was pretty expected. Producing 1.4m/month is actually really ambitious on Sony's part and if they don't keep up the sales on the PS4 it's going to be really costly...

    See my edit: Same for Microsoft, they do not have 3 million sold Xbones and 2 million unsold. They're not totally sold out, but they probably started in a similar timeframe and have the majority of it sold. And a week or two week difference could mean they have 3.25, or 3.5 out there, etc...

    PS4's are sold out everywhere. It's not bullshit or some fanboy conspiracy. 4.2 is what they had ready and distributed by December 28th, not 7 million. Assembly line to market is not that fast. They likely started at the end of September, not the start of it, which lines up with how much they...

    Hrm, according to Pachter: Sony is manufacturing 1.4 million PS4s a month and Microsoft is manufacturing 1 million Xbones a month. They both started manufacturing in September. Sony will have 16.8 million PS4s in a year, MS will have 12 million Xbones.

    Toss up between FFX and FFX-2 for me combat wise. FFX, FFX-2, and FFXIII-2 are all leagues better than all of the other FF games on a gameplay/technical level, imo.

    I don't think anyone would say that they need to be $2.99, but Square's made $20-30 mobile games that shouldn't have been more than $10. Higher prices than $2.99 are fine for certain games and PSN/XBL/Steam have had great success with $10-15 titles. Square's overcharged for stuff pretty badly...

    1) It's a port of an ancient SNES game and sure as fuck is not worth $16, let alone $60. Learn context dude. Their garbage other games are not worth $20 either. These aren't some high quality shit. 2) Diablo 3, Sim City, etc. That's why required connections fucking suck. There's absolutely no...

    Type confirmed, rage subsided. This is definitely not the definitive version of the game though. Those sprites are god fucking awful. If they wanted to do a sprite upgrade then they should have went with what the 2D PSP version of FF4 did to the sprites. It looks 10000000x better than that...

    Column and Chuk were on a shitposting spree. If you don't agree that's fine, but to many people they were and a mod agreed and handled it. Back on the TV topic: I'm liking this show a lot more. I don't think it's great by any means, maybe not even "good,", but it's definitely become quite...

    How can anything possibly worse than changing Esper to Espier? I think that shit induced tears of rage. I did not know that was possible. Fucking mobile games, seriously.

    Not only the heat issue, you have the issue of Storage. With 40-50gb games becoming the norm this generation you aren't going to see any of them hit mobile. I honestly think people are overestimating Smartphones a bit. Sure, they're the future - at some point. We'll all have some tiny device...

    Well, those numbers may not be "great" to to some, but I think they're great for what the 3DS is. They are far, far more than enough to justify its existence and it is a great little system with amazing software. Yeah, Nintendo probably isn't going to hit DS levels again due to the advent of...

    That's not true. Gaming sites and the like have started to warm up to the system now that the software library is getting a chance to mature. The new Mario game that launched is being greatly adored and is actually quite fantastic. If you build good games, they will come.

    It's starting to. December was the WiiU's best month yet. The problem is that Nintendo had ABSURD expectations for it, far worse than any possible wild predictions we've made about anyone's hardware here, and it totally tanked for most of the year setting like record low sales numbers.

    Regardless of what titles youpersonallythink are better, the PS4 won on software sales according to the NPD. Personally, I loved the launch for AC4: Black Flag (by *far* the best game on either system) and Resogun. The other titles are somewhat enjoyable too.

    Arguing over which launch titles were *slightly* less mediocre than the other is silly. If you want to go by sales, Sony won on software for launch & December according to the NPD.
