@get2sammyb while I agree, I will say this in regards to vg charts the past year or so. I've checked in on them pretty frequently, and they have always been in the ballpark of what the manufacturers announced and they've had those numbers a few days before the manufacturers stated them. Now I agree there's no way they are 100% accurate, but they have been pretty darn close and I don't think they are a bad reference if your giving a ballpark estimate and clarify it as such. And to clarify I consider general sales numbers, I would never go by vgchartz if your trying to prove monthly numbers. It's impossible that those are even within a few thousand sales accurate. I/e 18.5mil sales to 10mil sales is about as ballpark as I would confidently quote charts.

Ah, I use the Xbox ones USB ports because they are on the back to charge my headset/controller, then use TV USB port to Power the px4 wireless transmitter. Try not to use front USB ports unless absolutely necessary.

Played through it myself, then again with a friend via shareplay, and finally went 4 player roulette mode. Absolutely loved it and it was a breath of fresh air. Glad they got rewarded for doing something from left field.

Skyrim, skyrim, more skyrim, followed by mass effect. Though I will always hold out for morrowind remastered on any platform. I've got all these on pc, but I don't care, I want them on every console I own.

This game went the opposite of evolve for me. Evolve I wanted badly until the delay/more news came out, now it's a no buy for me. The order was off my radar until about 2 months ago, my only worry being the gears of War game play isn't my cup of tea. By that I mean slow moving, feeling like everything is stuck in mud mechanics. Il be getting this because it's only looked better and better every time i see it. Hopefully I'm not disappointed.

Got about 6hrs into it so far, it's a very solid game, and a nice change of pace. Be a zombie mode is really fun especially when invading your friends game. Definitely something I don't regret buying. Now if only I could break myself away from destiny long enough to get through my backlog.

Destiny is creating such an unfair backlog it's not fair. I've got 30hrs in inquisition, another 15 in far cry 4, I've to even restart gta v campaign though I did beat it twice on 360, then there's dying light, games I need to crank out with my psnow sub, I should finish watch dogs and Thief just for finishing sake, resident evil remastered as well... Gotta Lotta gaming to do before this comes out.

I would be pretty happy if this were the case. Futuristic military shooters have never been my thing, the last cod to get me hooked was black ops. Aw was a nice return but couldn't get hooked. Bring back my ppsh and type 100, id be stoked.

Had one per ordered, found out no Netflix support, and cancelled. Took another look a week or so ago because I won a 55" lg TV from a work party but it isn't a smart TV, still no Netflix support so I went a different route. Sadly I can say in all honesty not having Netflix support has to my knowledge cost them 5 sales from people I know, then another 2 because I would have gotten one for my living room, and one for the bedroom when I wound up with the extra TV. Oh well, I still have my launch ps3, Xbox 360 set up but I really wanted to take advantage of the ps4 remote play.

Almost pocked this up last week, but decided I will be holding off supporting them until the ps plus edition releases. On that day I will buy the entire game. I understand they have been working non stop on the game, and it's been vastly improved, and everyone with it says it's brilliant, but I'm tired of broken games. Halo Mcc was the last straw for me, I'm no longer supporting a game until it's stable and properly polished.

That's what I get for logging off to take a break. Guess it's the last time I ever do that

Not even kidding, was going to buy one at launch because I really, really liked the remote play, but with no Netflix I cancelled it at launch. Then the other day actually I was looking into media streamers, remembered the pstv and remembered no Netflix. Wound up not getting anything.

I myself have played entirely too much destiny, but I will say this, shadows of mordor wasn't my cup of tea. I bought it digitally, so I may go back to it, but it just never grabbed me. I put maybe 6-7hrs in it, and spent all that time hunting down captains and whatnot. That system was easily the greatest part of that game. To each their own I say.
As far as the planned dlc goes, good. There's no way they could keep a 10yr plan without constant content updates, and I look forward to what's next. I don't think anything after the dark below content was left intentionally out of they game, and also believe if gamers were more receptive to a traditional sub fee mmo we wouldn't get high priced dlc shoved out every few months. But that's for another forum.

@BetweenTheTrees

Won't lie these issues have been testing my patience. By coincidence my ps+ ran up the 23rd and haven't bothered renewing primarily because I haven't been able to connect. I love Sony, have defended them for years since the ps3 launch price fiasco (I still maintain it was a better value than buying everything piecemeal for the 360) but...I'm getting tired of these issues. Sony's great console has a great foundation and the network is causing major issues.

Its weird, i have it on pc and stopped playing primarily due to the game just feeling like it was built for a controller. Then theres the sub fee. Dont get me wrong when it comes to mmos im about as strongly against microtransactions as everybody, and have no issues paying a sub fee but for the game i saw? Im good. It feels like it should be buy to play.

I would do dirty things for a god of war announcment, an uncharted trailer/trilogy remaster, ea surprising us with an me4 teaser, and on my list of no chance in hell would be crash, any bethesda, medievil reboot, siphon filter, gt7, twisted metal, and the last but not least guardian. Any of those no chance things happen, and i will most likely cry.

A sir dan revival ranks in the top 3 of my wishlist.

Meta gear, resident evil, medal of honor (i remember going to blockbuster and buying a gun metal grey controller for it), medievil, ff vii ( which till wow held my longest continuous gaming session at 17hrs) to name a select few

Hopefully it fixes my shareplay feature. Idk what happened but no one can connect to me anymore, i connect to them fine, and my ps plus membership is good, so i have no idea what the issue is

Ps one by a mile. I still here that sound and the first thought i always have is the voiceover for resident evil. That startup sound always was followed by that voice for long enough that hearing it actually gets me creeped out.

I know 3-4 years ago i enjoyed watching the show simply because of the premiers, and would set time away for it. I think it was last year they changed the format and found it unwatchable. Its nice having a gaming event with world premiers in the winter, it makes e3 a little nicer to look forward to, and splits the year in half for those of us who enjoy those types of things. Then again on my bucket list for the last 14years is to go to e3 (ive got very serious plans for 2016) and have been attempting to get to pax east for the last 3 years as well.

Own both, there are both good consoles in their own right, however the x1s ui and controller drive me insane, and the ui in particular is just convoluted and ticks me off. Even the improvements they have made to make it better are interesting in terms of how they did it. My favorite was the update that enabled shortcuts via double tapping the xbox button. I watched the new features video for that twice to get down how to do it. Meanwhile, ive never had to watch any video to learn how to use my ps4s ui, its simple, streamlined, and the controller is rock solid. That simple opinion of mine keeps my ps4 as my primary for multiplats, while my x1 is used primarily as a tv box/media box via xbox media remote which has been the best accessory i have ever bought for a console. Game wise, im not a forza fan, but was less than impressed with it, dr3 was a disapointment, titanfall was fun for 30hrs or so, sunset overdrive which was the game that convinced me to get a x1 at launch was ok, not great, but ok. Then you have the mcc, which launched so broken i never would recomend it to anyone who wanted to do any co op, or multiplayer. The co op was laggy, severe input lag, just awful experience. I have a friend who has a gamerscore over 200k, who loves halo, gears, forza, and i actually have to convince him we should do an xbox session and even then it will only last an hour or so before he rages against being on it and hops back on ps4. These people buying them i feel like are swayed by not its superiority, but because of its price (tbh the white sunset bundle had me tempted to get rid of my day one but thats because im obsessed with white consoles).

My wish for 2015? Fix online franchise mode. That is all. I traded it in for my ps4 because my buddy and i both picked up a copy for franchise mode. It was lacking to put it mildly so we both wound up trading in our copies(i still play my vita copy pretty regularly though) that said, 20$ on ps4 today? Download has begun. Man i need to order a 2tb hd.

Strange, my buddy somehow was given the patch yesterday afternoon so was unable to join anyones online session because of missing content or something like that, then i was given the patch around 1am this morning and we were able to play again. In both instances the patch was in excess of 1gb. Is this a 3rd patch? We both already had the day one patch originally.

@ShogunRok thought it was a very good review. After leaving haven the first time, the amount of content ins just staggering. 8.5hrs and i havent left the starting area. Absolutely loving the game so far.

Tminus 17hrs till dragon age inquisition, gta v come home with me. So stoked. Only thing better would be going home with fallout 4 or a new elder scrolls, though a skyrim/morrowind remaster would bring equal levels of happyness. Its a good week to be on paid vacation.

Im am stoked. I have basic cable, no on demand, and use my x1 as the cable box and my cable bill alone is 88$ a month. This stays under that price and im all over it. Cannot wait.

Hell yea. My buddies and i rebuilt high hrothgar on the 360 version. Nothing like mineshafting with the skyrim music. Cant wait to do it again

Played the beta on pc a few weeks back. I was moderately impressed with how my pc ran it (500$ custom build that gets a 150-200$ renovation every 2-3years) but pretty uninspired by the actual game. As with ubi games it felt convoluted and not particularly interesting, ui was a sloppy mess, the driving felt ok for an arcade racer, very similar to your horizon 2 or rivals handling. Enough for me to say no thanks to trying it out on ps4.

Reading these things is only reinforcing my decision to buy the mcc over this sadly. After ac3, which had everything going for it but needed at least a 6month delay i was hesitant on continuing my ac purchases. Then i played black flag on ps4, and i completely fell in love again. Not in the story which was paltry at best, but in the gameplay and the world. Unity was a day 1 buy after that in my opinion, but everything i saw of it just slowly whittled away at my interest. Ill be picking it up via black friday buy 2 get one deals but im hoping these issues are resolved by then.

I saw the reviews up when i woke up, thought i had somehow fast forward an entire week. I suppose because of ea access they decided to lift the emabargos really early. Thats great though. Im still most excited for this, and cant wait to have this and gta for timesinks.

My question? Why vegas? If it was boston, nyc, id be there i a flash with about 4 people in tow. Unfortunately i was the only one who could justify the flight, hotel, etc to go of my friends because ive got 4 weeks of vaca time to use ip by dec 31 or lose it. Other than that i would ask where last guardian is, whats the word on god of war, any chance of heavenly sword or medievil reboot, and finally the biggest question of all. How does it feel knowing you made the psx years ago, and your competitor is touting a modern day version of it?

@TOMBOY25 knack imo was muc better than the hate it received. Im on my 6th playthrough now, and not from a lack of games either. I havent met a single person who played who didnt say they enjoyed it, and hope it doesnt get the heavenly sword treatment. Ill defend knack till im blue in the face but can acknowledge it definitely had its shortcomings, but was a better game than killzone, and much better than dr3 imo.

Give me all 3, with all DLC and ill buy it today.

I really wish i had known this was going to happen, i had read about it working on ghosts prior to picking up aw so i figured it would be fine. Its a feature i would have used 1-2 times max for trying out offline co op, and common sense would tell you not to even bother trying the online portion. Out of princible, and my belief this has nothing to do with presenting a subpar experience and more to do with $$ i would have not bought it, which in turn would have been enough to stop 3 other separate sales. Shame because ive enjoyed this one the most since the first blops, and it is a decent game for once.

My buddy and i were looking forward to trying exo survival on shareplay while his copy downloaded. Shame such a great feature is getting this treatment. Id understand online multiplayer, and even campaign, but local co op or local multi is a serious let down. Not to be that guy or anything but should i email activision and ask if its ok if we play when he visits while using just one copy? Its essentially the same thing in my opinion, difference is i can have someone come over, spend the day at my house, and play the entire campaign and a few hrs of multiplayer without buying it using his own profile even....

Happened once the day of the update, had to unplug it. Has not happened since but good to hear a fix is on its way

@get2sammyb any chance you can look into the shareplay issue with aw? Crickets on my end, and seems odd its not working. More odd that the 2 games that ive found not working are cod and minecraft. Not a conspiracy theorist or anything, and hope its just a didnt expect 2.0 patch thing, but was really looking forward to really giving shareplay a run for its money with a buddy of mine while he waited for his copy to download.

Ive got a cousin of mine, only really played cod and halo. One day i sat him down and told him to give skyrim a fair shake. Fast forward 2 years, and he had a save with well over 400hrs, and had not even thought about cod or halo. Skyrim was special in how accessable it was. It wasnt morrowind no. And frankly as an es lover it wasnt even oblivion. But it was outstanding enough to still be played constantly, for me to buy it 5 times (1 copy each console/pc and 2 gifts) along with the collectors edition, and i will whole heartedly agree with him.

Outside of cysis ive never been a big fan of future based multiplayer, so i will most likely gamefly this for the campaign because well...kevin spacey is the man.

Happened to me once, before i had read of any issues. Power button was unresponsive so had to pull the plug. Since then no further issues, and shareplay has been a ton of fun with my friends, whether it be taking down legendary ships in black flag, doing the co op knack, letting a friend play an hour or 2 of second son, or the always interesting octodad co op but with roullet mode activated. Outside of my one issue, 2.0 has been a great update.

Id give it a solid B+. I bought mine knowing that unlike last gen, id be using my ps4 for multiplats as well as exclusives, and thanks to the impeccable controller, the general psn stability, the interface being simple and intuitive, the steady stream of games, and gameplay recording/upload, i have enjoyed every moment of my ps4. Does psn need improving? Absolutely. Do they need to better layout firmware updates, server maint days, etc? Yes. Do i want to be able to change the name i picked out inebriated in 07? That would be outstanding. Meanwhile i give my x1 a solid c+. Works great as an all in one, love watching cable with the xbox media remote (best peripheral possibly ever for me), the exlusive so far minus sunset overdrive were incredibly meh but again, minus second son ps4 has had the same problem. The ui is...awful imo, i really hate that as of now ive watched upwards of 30 minutes of tutorials on how to do things in the ui which ive never had to do for a single product. Ever. Its only a year folks. Ps3 didnt hit its stride till 08/09, and 360 was falling apart (i know mine spent 3 months in a microsoft repair shop the first 15 months i had it) until the slimline came out. This year will be better regardless of the console.

I remember getting mw2 accidently shipped to me a week or 2 early, back then that was actually an enjoyable thing. Now if this could happen to me with inquisition, i would be a very, very happy person

Voted good, i like the major additions, and really like the little touches as well. What kept it from being very good was pretty simple stuff that i wont use but know many are waiting for. Mp3 to hard drive support, we only have 2 usbs sony, and mine is occupied by a charging cable and headset cable. Dlna support, because people want to stream their family videos . An ability to appear offline, or set your status to private, some of us have had our friends list explode from destiny raids, and have guilty conscience when we ignor an invite to help someone in a raid. Oh and can i change my name please without saying goodbye to my trophies and digital games? That would also be nice.

These things need to stop. Sonys console is the better one out there, but their inability to do anything network wise is getting tiresome. As of right now, netflix will not work, any games downloaded are not working because my console is not set to be my primary.

Ive got one question. Exactly what is being added to the online portion. I know most of this stuff is single player only, but im hoping the vehicles, stock car missions, the plethora of wildlife, are confirmed as being added to online as well. Ill only be buying it if my buddies and i can do new things together, otherwise, well it is coming out the same day as dragon age and far cry.

Time for sony to go for the knockout in my humble opinion. Drop it to 299.99$ through jan first, then 349$ regular. Heres a scary thought though. Could MS strategy be to strong arm sony out of the race by price drops, throwing its $$ at exclusives, and just in general using its cash to dominate the ecosystem? I seem to remember a similar fate happening to the dreamcast. Its my biggest fear, and a day that would surely send me back to my keyboard and mouse, but its something ive always got in the back of my head

@jmburks my xbox one has been a glorified cable box since launch, with the selling factor being sunset overdrive. Wishing i had held out though, that white one is a beaut. Cant complain tho, because of the x1 i was able to get rid of my 10$ a month cable box and downgrade to an hddtu instead free of charge. So as of next month, ive saved 120$ over the year in cable bills thanks to my x1! Meanwhile the ps4 sits happily in the man cave, played daily with no violation of its rights by having the frozen blu ray stuck in it once a week so i know its happy there.

I came across my pc version not long ago in my old cd collection, reinstalled it, only to find that it had indeed not aged well. An hd remaster, with revamped controls would be necessary.
