    Yep, that's an amazing TV. You will love the fuck out of it. There's just nothing like Plasma blacks. Totally worth it.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Yeah, it wasn't great. But... it didn't have the shitty low level A-Team production value feel either. I think it's slowly getting better overall.

    "No input lag" and "no noticeable input lag" are two different things. The ST60 is perfectly fine for anything like Call of Duty, Killzone, Halo, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid, Bayonetta, etc. I just wouldn't play Quake or Street Fighter 2 in a tournament on it (you wouldn't play on a 60 inch...

    Yeah, the OoT split stuff is stupid. But the separate timeline progressions make pretty good sense imo.

    The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds (3DS)

    What part is bullshit? Aside from the "Hero is defeated" start of the Left timeline it's pretty solid and all of the games in it fit together. Link to the Past -> Oracle of Ages/Seasons -> Link's Awakening -> A Link Between Worlds - > Zelda 1 -> Zelda 2. The Middle timeline is also solid...

    Oh bullshit. They're not saints, but the architects behind this system clearly love games and what they're doing and believe in pushing the PS4 as a gaming console. Downplaying the faces behind Sony like Mark Cerny, Andrew House, Shuhei Yoshida, Shahid Ahmad, etc is bullshit.

    Can't wait to see the 30+ Euro country PS4 numbers + the Black Friday USA PS4 influx. Plus another 7 Asian countries in December and Japan in February. Sony has a big manufacturing and distribution advantage right now.

    Unfortunately, no. It's cross play, but not cross buy. Sony really needs to make more cross buys happen.

    3DS and Vita are relevant, they're a major part of the generation. They may have started earlier, but they're going to be here for a long time. The 3DS has an amazing library that you really can't ignore too and the Vita is a major part of the PS4 and has quite a value with PS+. It's also not...

    Kinda sorta, but never have very much. Will have a fair amount saved from December and January though since there's 0 things to buy. May pick up a 3DS XL case and a HDD for my PS4. Also loaned someone $185, but probably won't get that back for a few weeks.

    If you pay for everything, then yeah, it's missing a couple things. But what it does have it does better and has better video and audio quality. If you pirate shit then it's flat out better with UMS.

    Btw, the color accuracy thing I'm talking about - the X360's RGB range is messed up. It crushes blacks and has inaccurate gamma,especiallyin Full Range. It's why the X360 version of games always looked like they had more "pop" in comparison videos while the PS3 versions looks slightly washed...

    Matters for streaming movies, no? You're severely limited in audio options on the X360. And LPCM isn't purely a blu-ray related thing, it's just uncompressed audio. You're probably thinking of DTS HD MA and Dolby TrueHD. And I'm just going to assume you never used UMS for Streaming, because...

    The PS3 has more accurate color output and far better and more varied audio output. The X360 is limited to 5.1 Dolby while the PS3 does LPCM 7.1 and started with the slim models does HD Bitstreaming. They both do DLNA fine and the PS3 has a far, far better Netflix app.

    Finished it 100% on Normal, amazing as fuck game. Quite possibly the best Zelda they've ever done. Will save Hero Mode for another time, have so much stuff to go through now that I've got a 3DS + need to finish Killzone, Knack, and a bunch of PS3 games.
