When is the PS4 conference and fuck boring FPS games. Tired of those , give me more Watch Dogs and GTA5s and new Fallout and TES. Less Shitlands and Titanfalls and BF4s , that shit needs to retire the way of Siderscroller shooters already.
I mostly agree with you, I'm tired of all of the shitty FPS rehashes, but titanfall looked different enough to be fun

Titanfall does look pretty awesome. Guess it can sate my appetite for a mech game until a proper MW5 comes out.

Wait, did I hear him right? ?425 in the UK? That's bloody expensive. I remember paying ?425 for my launch 60gb PS3 with an extra dual shock, a copy of Motorstorm, and a copy of Resistance, and people thought that was overpriced. I don't see this thing selling too well, especially with stiff competition from smartphones, tablets, and, of course, the PS4, which I think will come in at 20% less than the Xbox One.

I'm really surprised they're launching without the subsidised model, too. That seems crazy to me. A $299 Xbox One with monthly payments seemed like a no brainer to me.

Titanfall looks good, now I hope they don't butcher the PC version
"Press x to pick up rocket launcher." Its going to have standard console FPS controls and limitations.
2 guns as once probably. +grenades.

And the rest.

I see MS has picked up Steams retard habit of translating dollars to euro.... so thats a 20-ish% price increase right there.

To me the $499 price tag definitely rules out buying both systems until major price drops. I'm betting ps4 will come in at $399. Any more and it's too much, considering it doesn't come with the move eye.

Ryse was the only exclusive that intrigued me, in spite of the copious QTEs. Not enough to move me to Microsoft for this generation.

With the direction they took the xbone I'm surprised they even bothered releasing it outside of the US

But will they at launch at $500? Or will they wait for Halo 5's release sometime in 2014 or whatever or wait for a price drop?

I could give less than half a rat's ass about their always online, Kinect scanning, online policies or used game prevention. I didn't buy a 360 because I hate playing games on consoles and anything I wanted on 360 I could usually play on PC. Then again I'm in a very minority division of gamers. I still feel the $500 price point will hinder sales especially if PS4 comes out with a SKU at $400.

I dunno about all of em, but I have 3 co workers I talk to and know maybe hald a dozen others who said they would get one at launch as long as it wasn't more then $600. Hell I have a few on my facebook right this moment excited about the price point that it's ONLY $500.

I just shook my head at them.

Because of these assholes this could be the last generation of consoles without DRM.

Fuck them.
