I have a pretty cool one.
Unfortunately, it only works if Sony wins. Which won't happen.
Not anymore .

Tie means xbox found it's price point...
PS4 outputted 3 gazillion pixels per hour played, compared with XBONE which could only output 2 gazillion.
Or
XBONE put 1,235,124 frames on peoples screens each hour, compared with PS4 which only put 1,235,121 frames out.
Already starting i see
You would get a lot of people saying it is a disaster for Microsoft since they were selling at such a discount, and thus lose anyways. On the defending side, people would be saying that as long as they sold high enough numbers it doesn't matter if they beat Sony, and the only goal that matters is expanding their user base.
And... of course the usual drive by posts... and so on. It would not be the most fun outcome. I am hoping for an extreme one way or another.

Capatin Toad Treasure Tracker is the #1 game of the year.
Looks like it was just a one day timeout.
Correct. Does anyone have a chart so we can accurately break down the SPH for each console ?

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
$50 cheaper -and- having to give away $80 worth of software? That'd be ouch imo (not counting the additional $20 off and $50 gc at Target during BF).
Who can forget
I still can smell the panic in the air and the big wave after that

I really wanted to ask Pach what the hell he was thinking at PSX, but didn't muster up the courage lol
Well if you think about that, it's not a bad scenario for consumers right?
Because if Microsoft wants to dump a pile of money to subsidise our consumerism I won't complain.

Will be hard to separate the impact of Smash vs Amiibos, yeah?
And how do you define improve? 350k? 500k? More?

It must be a failure if they're discontinuing them, right?

Not so fast my friend. A fall lineup of Quantum Break, Forza 6, Halo 5, Tomb Raider, and possibly a Gears of War remastered collection is potentially lethal
If we're only talking about amiibo bringing Nintendo additional revenue, then amiibo is a success.
But amiibo was designed to attract more kids to their hardware. Not just something that hardcore Nintendo fans collect.
Hope someone does some Guardians of the Galaxy ones..

The dance off.
Etc
Things are looking up for the wii controller pad.

Agree, the final lineup for Fall 2015 is not finalized for either console yet. Saying one is superior to the other a year out isn't a good indication. We'll have a better idea after E3 2015 on whose lineup is stronger.
Let's just hope the Gears remaster is handled better than the Halo one.

Oh god, I hope MS doesn't put QB in fall. I hope its around summer. I think fall is pretty much sending the game out to die.
I though the failure of that thing was not questionable

IT BEGINS.
I'm not sure this tracks. It wasn't just the price drop alone, the included bundled games combined with the price drop made the deals crazy good. So, if their price point is going to remain where it is and they're going to continue offering 2 free games then I guess it works. Wouldn't complain about that, I didn't spring for one this time but if this deal sticks around I'll end up getting it sooner rather than later.
What happened?
Welp
ahaha!! those 3 make sense. "The Empire Strikes Back!" is genious!!
wow the tension in this thread...
Also, i hope that someone has the "waking the sleeping dragon" ready.
I'd release forza 6 and 7 together for extra oomph

Yeah my gut says August but Remedy likes to take their sweet time. I really think it's gonna be August though
Quit teasing like that. It's annoying.
