All good points, but whichever you pick...you still loseI don't think the 2nd hand games blocking stuff will materialise in the way we fear. If at all. Maybe that's more hope than anything else.
I'm definitely getting the 360 successor, I'm a full on XBL convert. I think Sony were too slow / late getting PSN up to par. I probably won't want in at the initial price but I'll definitely get one eventually.
I liked the PS4 reveal way more than I thought I would, mainly due to the Gakai / social stuff, and because of how good things like Deep Down looked... In terms of PR wins, I feel like the reveal must have been quite a big one, because ahead of it I couldn't have been more against the idea of buying one. Anyone who knows my posting habits well knows I have some bias against Sony, partly due to how I view them generally, and partly because I feel they've been too good at using ill-gotten hype to part people from their money. I won't lie -- a lot of it is to do with how far up my nose some fans on the gaming side have gotten. That probably sounds irrational, and maybe it is, but damn some people are annoying! I bought a PS2 and PS3 at launch, but I'm not going to support this one until something comes along to make it utterly irresistible. That video recording / robust profile stuff could be it, but again - like the 360 successor - probably not at launch. I love Miiverse, and PS4 looks to enhance that further...
I do wish gaming wasn't such an expensive luxury.
In terms of bang for buck, Hodgy100 posted this in a recent Crytek thread on the gaming side:
I imagine that in 6/7/8 months time, you'll be able to build something even better. I'm thinking this might be the generation I rejoin the "master race" ...
lolThat's not how you spell erotic.
I'm at work geeza. I'll be back home around 5, so after that if you guys are up for it.
I'm so angry right now.
I've had to cancel the order because I am a fucking idiot.
You're also not a real man until you piss at urinals in public bathrooms right?
Just so you know, I'm holding it for the entire time during the A$AP gig. Sooooo not taking the chance
The passing of an idea from one individual to another until that thought becomes embedded within us all. Until then it is just one guys thoughts.
Also there are other terms to describe "witty" internet image like macro, comic, cartoon. eople need to expand their internet vocab before they start thinking weeaboo means someone who likes Japanese things vs someone who wishes they were Japanese and trolling means to insult someones dead grandmother vs laughing at someone through the misuse of information.
i.e. The whole web is trolling me by getting all these terms wrong and their doing of this is the meme.
Just go into the cubicals to piss bro..
I get stage fright if I'm about to piss and a dude stands next to me at the urinals, But when I'm drunk (like i will be at the asap gig) I won't give a fuck.
Just go into the cubicals to piss bro.. Wait lol what do you do if your out drinking with friends ? Just go home when you can't hold your piss any longer ?
What's up mang? What happened?
How are you getting there/backI probably should have mentioned this earlier, two days is kinda redefining short notice, but whatever- my blunder is now your opportunity! I've got one (1) spare ticket to the Louis C.K. gig at the O2 on Wednesday night. Spent the last week trying to find someone who'd be able to replace my dirty sell-out friend, to no avail, so I'm throwing it wide open.
Fair warning- you will be sat next to me. On the other hand, price is negotiable. I dunno, like a tenner at least? I'm off either way but I'd rather not look like a Billy No Mates. Plus it'd make up for me not being able to make any of the meet-ups.
PM me or something if you're interested, yeah?
How are you getting there/back
Short story is that I'm an idiot, long story is read contracts more carefully and trust your gut.
What time is your last train back from St pancras? Would be £50 for me so I'm not sureTrain. Staff pass, yo
More specifically, probably getting the Underground from St Pancras. Pretty sure that's what I did before.
What time is your last train back from St pancras? Would be £50 for me so I'm not sure
That's not the long story...lol
What actually happened eh? you can pm me it if you're embarrassed
Hit me up on steam later if you don't find anyone elseLatest train would actually be from Kings Cross (tomato tomato) at half 11. I have no idea when the show ends, but it starts at 8pm (with no interval). Doors at 6:30.
Hit me up on steam later if you don't find anyone else
I'll eventually get a PS4, but that'll be mostly to replace my PS3 as a blu ray player.
From this point on I'm an almost purely PC gamer. My days of multiple consoles are over.
May invest in the odd handheld still.
I only got a PS3 in late 2010. Plenty on there to entertain me. Shit, I'm accruing a backlog.
XCOM
Binary Domain
de Blob 2
Darksiders
Sly 2/3
Jak 3
Shadows of the Damned
All those need to be beaten. Plus God Hand, which I swear I'll play more of one day oh please don't kill me
My backlog is about 15 PS3 games, 10 Xbox 360 games, 5 Vita games and 4 PSP games. Oh, and two PS1/PSP games.
I'll still but MGS:R this weekend, cos I'm an idiot.
I'LL BEAT LITTLE KING'S STORY ONE DAY.
And Ghost Trick. Need to reclaim my DSi because playing DS games on 3DS is ewwwwwwww.
Drop everything and play Ghost Trick right this instant.
My gamecube, copy of Smash Melee and extra controller have just arrived at my girlfriends house. We're in for an exciting weekend!
(We seriously play Smash Bros 64 for hours every weekend. We have a fierce rivalry... SHOW ME YA MOVES)
I don't think I even bothered to get everything in Brawl. God help us with the next instalment and the fact there will be two of them.
I too get shycock so I'm a cubicle man all the way. I'm a civilised human dammit, let me get my nob out in peace!
Hopefully the next one is good, unlike Brawl, so when it does have an obscene amount of shit to unlock I'll actually want to do it.
Brawl would have been fucking amazing if the physics weren't so weird... and the single-player wasn't either. Why was event mode so tame? Why did the SSE suck so much? What happened to Target Smash?

Fully intend to! I'm even tempted to just not look up how to do it, at least at first. The core gameplay is just so fun that I'm sure we will unlock most of it just from playing as we want to. Unless there is a character or stage web are desperate for.Melee has thousands of hours of unlockable virtual tat if you're so inclined.
I'm also going and have a spare ticket. Have just offered it to somebody else, hopefully they'll take it!
Whereabouts are you sitting? I'm in block B1.
Since I've completed Metal Gear Rising, what game should I play before Bioshock Infinite is released? Batman Arkham City Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC or the two Mass Effect 3 DLCs?
There's nothing more satisfying to a student than the moment you press submit on Turnitin.
My backlog
Dishonoured
Halo 4
Resident evil 6 (I played at mates some parts quite enjoyed it due to great gunplay)
Dynasty Warriors 7 : empires
ZOE:HD (I loved it on ps2 never got round to play ZOE2 though)
Ninja Gaiden 3:razors sigma whatever re release might pick up demo was vastly better then NG3 demo
I still need finish Xcom and I only done a part of Ghost Trick on my iPod need finish that
