I am going to laugh it this game actually flops. It's all I hear from the X1 camp. I have to say Destiny looks more intriguing. Titanfall looks like COD with mechs which can be cool but not groundbreaking or mind blowing.
I find it funny that XBOX fanboys are turning this into a PS4 thing when this is a a multiplatform game and all versions are being delayed. Interesting thing is that I almost pre-ordered this game.
@odd69 You have to look closely. Instead of it saying "Playstation Network" on the XMB it now says "PSN". They added privacy settings to the trophies. You have to specifically go to the trophy section to see the change. Maybe it's just me but I don't see the need to hide trophies.
@Gamer83 I never said you didn't like indie titles and if you look at PS4's indie titles they do compliment the system. The issue that I have with a lot of Xbox fans is that they only look at it form their perspective like I will only play this or I only do this, or this console has the games that I want to play so it is the better console. Yeah, one might be better for you but that doesn't mean it's the better console to someone else. From doing a little bit of research as of right now there are 32 PS4 titles compared to 17 for the Xbox One annouced for 2013-2014. This does not include multi-platform titles or titles with TBD release dates. So, from a numbers perspective I don't see how MS has an advantage. Now as far as AAA titles or indie titles the mass market is not going to know the difference and the people that really care are the hardcore gamers. Which games are better? Well, as I said before this is all about preference. So, the only way you can calculate this is after launch to see which games sell and which games rate better among the masses.The games that I look forward to are KZ, Infamous, Driveclub, Daylight, The Order, Deep Down, Warframe, Blacklight, and Planetside 2. As far as the consoles are concerned, you bring up one of the bigger advantages of the PS4 which is the $100 price difference and the $10 difference for the annual subscription (for those that choose to subscribe). A lot of people are going to get the cheaper console. Not to mention in just about every poll online list the PS4 as the preferred console as well as it being the better looking console (not that looks are everything). On the marketing side of things I have been seeing Playstation commercials all over TV as well as advertisements for the PS4 Taco Bell promotion. Also, the PS4 was a sponsor for one of the UFC fights. As far as the Xbox One, I have only seen a commercial for it the last few times I went to the movie theater and they did run a few commercials during the first week of football season. I don't know if they have been running them constantly because I don't follow football but people I do know that follow football hasn't seen any Xbox One commercials at least for the last few weeks.
@Gamer83 You do have a point that people don't buy consoles for the indie games but they do add to the overall experience of the console. Like it or not indies games are becoming more popular but that doesn't mean that AAA gaming is dying. My point wasn't who has the most AAA titles. I am just saying that the debate who has the games advantage is subjective. Yeah you can say one console has more AAA games but how many of those games do you really want to play. That's part of the reason why I pre-ordered a PS4 is because of the games. Xbox One only had a few that I would want to play but not enough for me to buy their console. Myself and many others feel this way just like there are people who don't care for PS4 games. So, it is all a matter of preference. Real gamers don't care if games are AAA titles or indie titles as long as they are good games. Also, you could argue that the PS4 has the game advantage because they have the most games announced. As of right now across the board the PS4 has the overall advantage but we will have to see how it all plays out. Not to mention the PS4 is already implementing a smarter marketing strategy.
@Gamer83 Personally I don't see how Xbox One has the game advantage. There are more games on the PS4 than the Xbox One that appeal to me. This is the problem with this comparison, its all subjective and it's up to each person's personal tastes.
@charlesnarles I don't think any of this is going to take away any of the magic of when you actually get the console. It's one thing to see it online but it is another thing when it is actually in your hands and it is your console that you purchased.
@charlesnarles I was being somewhat funny but $19.99 is not a bad deal and I am sure it will be worth it. If the pass was $29.99 or more then I would probably pass on it for now. Plus I already have Killzone on pre-order.
@rjejr Apparently I can get if fixed for like $60-$80 but I will let you know how well that goes.
If you like platform games I think you will like Puppeteer. It's definitely a unique game and It does have a hint of Little Big Planet it to it. I am only a few Acts into the game and I plan on buying it when I get extra cash, maybe on a Gamefly sale.
@Lelouch Having dedicated servers was not the reason why Microsoft had the online advantage and as stated before Sony has dedicated servers as well. Also, this promo has nothing to do with Gaikai.
@Gamer83 What's wrong with Jack Tretton?? He might not be perfect but I don't see whats wrong with him. From what I've seen a lot of people do like him.
Yeah, I wonder what happened to cheats. Maybe because a lot of people play games online..I don't know. I used to have a game genie and a game shark, those were the days...lol
I have a feeling that Knack is going to surprise everybody. On a side note why don't they bring Crash back? I think a lot of people would go for it if done right.
@Lelouch Yeah this looks like a great horror game. I don't think The Last of Us was targeting horror. It was more of a survival game than a horror game.

I plan on downloading it as soon as I can get it!
Re: Could Titanfall Still Pick a Fight with the PlayStation 4?
I am going to laugh it this game actually flops. It's all I hear from the X1 camp. I have to say Destiny looks more intriguing. Titanfall looks like COD with mechs which can be cool but not groundbreaking or mind blowing.
Re: PlayStation, This Is Very Much Your Life
@Lelouch Same here, Tekken was one of the first few games that I owned for the Playstation.
Re: Talking Point: How Have This Week's Delays Affected Your Anticipation for PS4?
In a way I am kind of glad that Watch Dogs is delayed it will give me time to focus on Drive Club, Killzone, Need For Speed, etc.
Re: Watch Dogs Packs Up Its Smartphone Until Spring 2014
I find it funny that XBOX fanboys are turning this into a PS4 thing when this is a a multiplatform game and all versions are being delayed. Interesting thing is that I almost pre-ordered this game.
Re: Sony's First PS4 Commercial Aims to Keep You Hanging On Until Launch

Re: Review: WipEout (PSone)

Re: Weirdness: Watch Kevin Butler Staple His Tie in This Wendy's Commercial
@get2sammyb Yeah places are going on a pretzel bun kick. I tried one at Wendy's and it wasn't too bad but nothing to brag about.
Re: Review: Jumping Flash! (PSone)
I remember first playing this on the old Playstation demo disc. They should remake this in HD or something.
Re: Pre-Ordered a PS4? Here Are Your Bundle Options in the UK
@Gamer83 @Reverend_Skeeve Yeah, I would have jumped on a bundle if Sony came out with one in the US.
Re: Pre-Ordered a PS4? Here Are Your Bundle Options in the UK
how com I am constantly seeing articles on bundles for the UK and Europe? What about the USA?
Re: Naughty Dog's Next Generation Daxter Is Pretty Terrifying
@get2sammyb Yeah I don't think so either. I think they are going to probably stick with The Last of Us and Uncharted for now.
Re: Naughty Dog's Next Generation Daxter Is Pretty Terrifying
That looks pretty awesome! Maybe they can try doing a Jak & Daxter for the PS4.
Re: What's New in PlayStation 3 Firmware Update v4.50?
@odd69 You have to look closely. Instead of it saying "Playstation Network" on the XMB it now says "PSN". They added privacy settings to the trophies. You have to specifically go to the trophy section to see the change. Maybe it's just me but I don't see the need to hide trophies.
Re: What's New in PlayStation 3 Firmware Update v4.50?
@belmont You should turn it on. It's pretty cool and convenient! You also get a summary of what was downloaded and what game saves were uploaded.
