Even with the 720p jab, damn, the day one editions has some classy packaging...Enjoying the hell out of my ps4, far more than I thought I would (it feels like getting new glasses after realizing I was practically blind), but I'm crazy excited for my XO on Friday too.

God of War 3 seems like the best example (but it was not a launch title) or maybe Assassins Creed 1 (but that was open world)

Hey, it isn't getting 7 or 8's I'll be sincerely happy to play it. I don't dislike the genre and it has been looking better as launch approaches (seems like they pulled the camera back so you can actually see what the hell is happening around you). We shall see...I have been hoarding Xbox credit for months and have…

This game completely snuck up on me. I'm headed home to unbox my PS4 and get to playing and I never would have guessed this was the first disc I wanted to put in the tray (previously it was AC4 for PS4 and still Dead Rising 3 for XO).

Dead Rising on Monday...Ryse on Thursday...I've got to imagine that timing is at least partially indicative of their confidence in the games...

I've seen XO in person multiple times. It's plenty small and very classy. PS4 is just insanely small. Getting both! Tomorrow it begins!

Isn't really about sitting near the router? Not the PS4? The PS4 is sending the signal to the router and the router is sending it to the Vita, right? What am I missing?

Polygon did an article a couple days ago about Digital Foundry ripping DR3 to shreds on framerate and lack of next-gen "stuff." However, both the Polygon article and the DF article failed to say WHEN the footage (on which they judges the game) was actually taken (could have been an older build). Regardless, DR3 is…

Man, I hope the framerate issues are ironed out for launch. I am super excited for this game. Loved DR2. Never finished DR1 (by the time I got around to trying it, it felt very dated).

I'm married, 30 years old. I love playing games, it is my main hobby, but I also watch movies, tv, and a ton of stuff on netflix. A very consistent annoyance in my life is switching between all the forms of entertainment, especially netflix and gaming (or games and a football game). Right now, I need to find a save…

I'm getting both systems and I fully accept ps4 has a power advantage, but any who thinks this is compelling compared to what XO is doing is kidding themselves.

Not worried about having to redownload games and stuff. Just the saves...Since PS4 doesn't work with external harddrives, what does one do to transfer saves? Or are they doing cloud saves like XO?

I don't want to pull the trigger right away, but I'm sure I will in a year or two. My question is this: How will I transfer my data from my PS4 HDD to my new HDD in a year or two? Is there a cable for that?

Agreed. I also think its true that MS is terrified of having another 3 red lights situation. I bet the inside of the XO is whole lot of empty space and some big ass fans.

Feel like I've been seeing people using XO the most lately (when not trying to be negative), seems to get the job done.

Wow, this is a great article to read. I'm getting both systems, but I felt like I was the only one watching the E3 presentations that thought MS was the clear winner on games. As launch has approached, I've continued to be more excited by the XO line up and the overall XO experience (even if it takes some time to…

Never been into these types of games, but this does look pretty damn cool and since it's free, I suppose I will give it a shot. Not necessarily the exact same type of game, but for anyone who loves old school game styles with a modern twist, check out Renegade Ops on PSN/XBLA. It's from the guys that did Just Cause 2,…

Their whole thing is that there is basically a firewall between games and apps, so neither one impacts the performance of the other. Their OS basically create virtual machines for apps and games and has a hard divide on the resources (hence only 4.5 or 5GB of the 8GB of RAM are used for games. The other 3GB are…

The XMB is essentially a folder system with a bunch of executable files. Every app on the PS3 is completely separate from the OS (which isn't really an OS as much as again, a folder system) and loads separately and there is zero universal functionality (accept again, bring up the folder system). Take the 360 on the…

I guess I've just fallen out of (or become too ADD for) super hardcore gaming, but it's crazy to me that anyone could see a video like this and say "nope, I have no interest in that and cannot see the potential for making my time in front of the TV way better."
