@get2sammyb Yes and no currently most games are best on PC but I understand you're looking at this from a purely conventional console out look, but I will say if it was more widely conveyed to the public that you can have a PC stronger than a PS4 for not much more sales may not be as high as they are but that's my whole point about marketing being so dominant now then ever many people assume the PS4 is the most powerful machine to play games on when that isn't true and at the moment the exclusives are few (though 2015 should see that change).
@electrolite77 Quote out of context much "marketing is now by and far by a huge margin the most important aspect of selling consoles" I'm saying that marketing is like 90% of the sell compared to previous gens where games also did a lot of the talking.
What I've learnt from the past year marketing is now by and far by a huge margin the most important aspect of selling consoles and constant blunders don't matter when marketing is so good.
@get2sammyb Keep in mind I've only really tried proper glitching in SM64 and OOT but there is something weirdly fun beating a game super fast in unconventional ways and just testing stuff to see what works.
It would just feel weird for me as I feel what if Sony went bust what happens to my save compared to physical games with saves stored on the console plus it is expensive I can only imagine in horror how this will be in pounds probably £15-18.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi If some one asked me if which out of Streets of Rage 2 and TLOU I'd probably choose SOR2 because is such a fun game, I'll add that has nothing to do with nostalgia as I didn't play it till Wii VC.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi PS3 version of Bayo was bad (I had it) not a good port so thankfully I got the Bayonetta 1+2 pack and able to experience it at its best. I'm not as big on the 2D Mario stuff these days myself but games of the calibre of DKCTF should not be as under appreciated the game deserved so much more attention really is up there for best 2D platformer.
Tempting but ebay is so volatile its hard to guess what I'd get for DriveClub, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and a downloadable version of The Last of Us Remastered. They'll probably be better boxing day deals but this is good for some especially if they didn't buy GTAV and TLOU on PS3.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Your kind of right, when posting on the internet it's best to be crystal clear to avoid situations of misinterpretation. Reason Wii U is my pick this year DKCTF, MK8, Bayonetta 2 and SSB4 all very different and excellent games and I'm a fan of each series especially Smash.
@LordBagardo @get2sammyb
@Vorlon Please elaborate how all they do is remakes preferably with examples.
@Sanquine I know it isn't a real DQ game but I like warrior games and would prefer having it on PC (where it would run better) then PS3 and most warrior games get a PC version so I was a bit miffed is all, any best forget about it.
@Tasuki Didn't think the word I used was that bad but will refrain from using in future, sorry.
@Sanquine "Why miffed? Because precious Nintendo isnt getting any love? Im miffed because Yokia watch is on the 3ds with its region lock..."
Nope wrong I was hoping this would come to PC as it isn't an exclusive 1st party franchise like Zelda, try not to jump to conclusions and act like a jerk in the future please.
Also I see no issue with this being on Wii U as DQ has a strong following on Nintendo platforms.
I may be on Christmas break but actually can't be asked with this kind of duck hunt especially when the website doesn't load, Sony just seem to be making a special occasion less special with their handling.

Re: Game of the Year: These Are Your Favourite PS4, PS3, and Vita Titles of 2014
@arnoldlayne83 Curious which 5 games you'd pick (but I don't want to see GTA 5 or TLOU:R mentioned).
Re: Game of the Year: These Are Your Favourite PS4, PS3, and Vita Titles of 2014
Destiny isn't terrible but man even getting fourth (edit: third even worse) shows how bad this year has been for certain consoles.
Re: Weirdness: What if Hideo Kojima Was the Star of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes?
His face is like a puffer fish.
Re: Fat Princess: Piece of Cake Bulks Up on Vita in January

Re: Soapbox: Poor Communication Continues to Be PSN's Biggest Problem
@BLPs Well I haven't had problems today myself so it isn't the whole of PSN down you seem to be blowing it completely out of proportion a bit.
Re: Soapbox: Poor Communication Continues to Be PSN's Biggest Problem
@BLPs It was longer than this though.
Re: Soapbox: Poor Communication Continues to Be PSN's Biggest Problem
@BLPs Last year the eshop was crippled for ages from new owners around Christmas, also Lizard Squad don't give a rats about the big N.
Re: Sony Engineers Investigating as PS4 Goes Offline Again
Sony do need to drastically improve its online infrastructure as this year has been ridiculous with the amount of times this has happened.
Re: Sony Engineers Investigating as PS4 Goes Offline Again
Ah well this won't effect me playing my new copy of Vita Uncharted so I'll wait it out.
Re: Weirdness: This Christmas Gift Is the PS4 Equivalent of Coal
Wait what now was it a pre-owned console or something and Walmart tried to pass it as new?
Re: PSN Offline for Second Day as Attackers Bring Servers Down
I was playing a bit online on my Vita today with zero problems.
Re: Sony Investigating as Christmas Traffic Pulls PSN Offline
Didn't get much PS related stuff this year so haven't logged on all day, sucks for people getting new games/consoles.
Re: There's a Deep Downgrade in These Deep Down PS4 Screens
Looks okay but as said nothing to stop the presses about.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This... Christmas?
Grudge match on Smash 4 with my brother, something we've done since Melee days.
Re: Actually, PS4 Had the Most Great Games This Year
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi If some one asked me if which out of Streets of Rage 2 and TLOU I'd probably choose SOR2 because is such a fun game, I'll add that has nothing to do with nostalgia as I didn't play it till Wii VC.
Re: Actually, PS4 Had the Most Great Games This Year
@get2sammyb Well UKwise I've only been able to find Snapple at Tesco http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/search/default.aspx?searchBox=snapple&icid=tescohp_sws-1_snapple
unfortunately I've never seen the peach tea flavour over here so on special occasions (birthday/christmas) I buy some from Amazon (overkill I know but its my fav) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Snapple-Peach-Tea-Bottles-Pack/dp/B00CMSM4NY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419358054&sr=8-1&keywords=snapple+iced+tea apart from that most US stores stock Snapple.

Re: Actually, PS4 Had the Most Great Games This Year
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Yes that was my opinion do I actually have to type that when making a small remark?
Re: Actually, PS4 Had the Most Great Games This Year
@get2sammyb This certainly went down well with people.
Edit: Wii U still had the best exclusives this year regardless in terms of sheer quality.
Re: Why Haven't We Seen More of Gravity Rush 2? You'll Find Out Soon
Anyway this would upset me a bit but I can (sigh) understand why they would do it, to be honest I'd rather a Gravity Rush 2 then no Gravity Rush 2.
Re: Why Haven't We Seen More of Gravity Rush 2? You'll Find Out Soon
@get2sammyb Pokemon didn't drop till 2013 by then 3DS was selling gangbusters so I disagree with that kind of excuse.
Re: Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Could Well Be the Best Looking Anime Game Ever
@FullbringIchigo Ending was good not great and quite uninspiring at parts.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi The game is kinda like that for its major battles like this and mixes cinematics into some story missions.
Re: Rumour: The Last of Us 2 Will Explore the Depths of Despair on PS4

Re: Dragon Ball Xenoverse's Latest Trailer Shows It Has Real Potential
As long as it is nothing like Battle of Z I'll try it.
Re: Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Could Well Be the Best Looking Anime Game Ever
Honestly this doesn't look much different to previous entries which makes me wonder why they are skipping PS3.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Like 50 seconds in is gameplay.

Miffed this is a PS exclusive.
Re: Opinion: Why Sony Will Drop the PS4's Price if Necessary

Re: Review: Resogun (PlayStation Network - Vita)

Re: There Is Another Way to Obtain a 20th Anniversary PS4 in the UK

Re: Pachter: This Is the PlayStation 4's Generation to Lose
Well yeah Sony will have both great exclusives and third party games something both MS and Nintendo greatly struggle achieving both.
Edit: Also
Re: Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is Bringing the Ninja War West on PS4
Oh come on I like playing it on PS3 but it should still get a PC release so I'm good.
