Where is PixelJunk Eden 2?

Why would anyone follow Microsoft’s vision of gaming, they are third-place, the losers in gaming… They are irrelevant. What he just said was literally a word soup of buzzwords.
Their vision is simply to eliminate all competition, only to just then get the industry into a position of subscription cloud gaming with no hardware just to get your recurring payment each month.

That’s the equivalent of 8+ large/PlayStation studios…
F*** Microsoft

Well now it will be decisions made by Microsoft which will make your games worse 😁

@Anke It doesn't say PC only anywhere in the broadcast

@LiamCroft I was wondering if you guys are tracking or noticed that a number of the ubisoft games are day 1 free in Ubisoft+ Avatar, Skull and Bones, Assassins Creed Mirage it didn't state it on trailers but usually on the screen behind the speakers presentation (at the end of speech). on The Crew Motorfest it said "early access with Ubisoft+" but with all the above others "Play it day 1 with Ubisoft+" It's also restated at the end of the show just before the extended deepdives in a Ubisoft+ ad.

Horizon Burning Shores already has that title and won't be surpassed

For everyone saying Life of Black Tiger... people new LoBT was crap before hand and has always been very cheap to buy, whereas 2077 was over-hyped and people were deceived about the lack of quality of the game and was full priced.
I just hope lessons have been learned by ALL developers, as well as Sony.

Another new firmware feature is if you hold down the PlayStation button it automatically returns you to the home screen (previously pushing or holding the button would only bring up the pop-up menu).

Yes, i just pre-ordered after the previews...

This is without doubt the laziest and dumbest articles this site has ever written...

Won't be for PS Now, the service isn't in enough markets, it would be rather unpopular with those countries missing out...

Love the look of the console. A surprising feature that would be cool is if the LED strips running down the length of the system could be user changeable to any colour you desired...

Sony haven't been avoiding all 3rd party games showcases for the last 18 months+ to now appear at this or IGN's lame, half hearted shows.
Sony will never share the spotlight with multi-platform titles on a 3rd party showcase.
All announcements from Sony on hardware and large, exciting games will come from Sony themselves (and will continue for the foreseeable future)...

To be fair, Sony have not announced all the features of the DualSense controller as of yet, so this article seems premature...

EDIT: has anyone else noticed that the images are renders, not actual photos (I could be wrong, but I doubt it)???

People hoping to get in better be ready for disappointment, because after the beta I was sent another email to sign up for early access involvement. Which maybe means only people who responded are eligible.

I wouldn't mind betting that at least 80% of those cheering employees will find themselves unemployed in the near future as Bungie will need to downsize, and quickly.
The burn rate of studio funds when you have 700+ employees is astronomical. They need to be a studio of 100 - 150 at most or face closure.

This looks to be a marked step down in quality compared to the previous 2 games.
Character models, environments, combat and especially animations are all rough... I'd suggest people who enjoyed the previous titles be wary after this gameplay reveal and wait for reviews.
I could be wrong, but I'd suggest 6's & 7's at best.

This is where they have to be careful with too many conferences...
I would suggest they will announce "a very special PSX" for February/March 2019, and forego a December 2018 PSX conference. The PS5 announcement is very definitely coming next year.

PROBLEMATIC...a game premise where they clearly state that a person who is lonely/depressed becomes/is a monster. Coming on the heals of a couple of high profile suicides...
However, i'm interested and am looking forward to playing it.

@ranjas the song is from the Eurythmics called Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This). It has also been remade a few times, most notably by Marilyn Manson.

I would like to clarify that the patch notes indicate that it's a performance update, not stability as usual... this update unlocks the 7th core...

@Demi_God good points, but i'll add to it
4. Sony releases Uncharted 4 on the same day, completely decimating Tomb Raiders sales. (+someone who owns both consoles would generally buy UC4 over TR).

Doesn't make any of his statement right, or in anyway good journalism. He should know/research his countries classification laws.

As an Aussie I find the "draconian import and classification laws" stuff pretty offensive and very uninformed. The ratings system has been fixed for over a year now, and the importation of games has never been an issue.
It's more likely someone at Konami screwed up. Plus other reports indicate the XB1 version is the hold up, and Konami decided to postpone ALL other sku's. We will more than likely get the digital version on time.
Plus more sales for the infinitely better inFamous second son... blessing in disguise

@Gamer83 Sony is not doing anything wrong with the PS4 supply, there is such a thing as worldwide you know.
While MS only caters to the US (by diverting the majority of its stock), Sony is getting worldwide mindshare by fairly distributing stock to all the release countries. In the long run this tactic will have Sony dominating worldwide figures.
Take into account that Sony is manufacturing in 2 countries Japan/China, so is producing more consoles than MS, but still can't keep up with demand.

Honeyslugs Ricky Haggett- ‏@KommanderKlobb has left a comment on Twitter :

"Dunno what's with the stories reporting Hohokum slipped from Japanese PS4 release: was never a date we were targeting. A misunderstanding?"

EA and Ubisoft are the biggest culprits at charging 20%+ more than retail. Sony's first party games are pretty much inline with retail.
EA and Ubisoft and others are pretty nearsighted with their policies. The profit they would earn with price parity with retail - saving on packaging etc. is a missed opportunity.

I got mine today. Small suburban JB Hifi store and they had a surprising amount stacked up behind the counter - 100+. I don't know if they were all pre-orders or not, but I went back to the same store 3 hours later and they only had a half dozen uncollected (at that time) left - presumedly pre-orders of people who didn't have the day off of work. PS4 is going to be huge, just hope Sony can keep up with demand and capitalise on the love they are deservedly getting.

I was assuming the 1 million quoted was for all the already spoken for preorders.

I would like to point out that the 1 million consoles quoted are just for the first day, so in all likelihood the total number for the weekend, when including the whole first shipment allocation for NA (which is no doubt sold out everywhere) is substantially higher.

@get2sammyb thought the tip would help. I had been reading about this on other sites, but no-one mentioned the 3.5mm connection (it was my first comment on the site, been reading for years).

If you have the Pulse Elite headset it will work as long as you use the 3.5mm headphone cable that shipped with them.
Plug it into the earpieces and the dualshock4 3.5mm input. You will get game audio as well as chat. In this mode you won't get surround sound though, just stereo.
This workaround will keep me happy until the patch arrives.
