"You lose the disc, the disc scratches, frankly you don't care about the disc anymore"

Yeah, but the fact that it's a good 20% smaller than the XBO with the power supply in the box is.

All indications are that Notch belongs to Microsoft, too.

The PS4's design shows that Sony has actual hardware engineers, where the XBO looks like something I could put together with parts from Newegg.

I have a buddy who has been in offline mode for almost 3 years on Steam that just loads it up to play Fallout 3. Some games require you to go online from time to time, but it's not Steam dependent at all, it's a game-by-game basis.

Microsoft is working really hard to give the impression they're meeting consumers half way without really moving at all. It's equally impressive and depressing just how many people eat it up.

"Why would you buy Assassin's Creed IV for $59.99 when we have it for $54.99?" Boom, shots fired!

I've seen Scott Rohde from Sony say a couple of times that, while they haven't confirmed anything, $60 seems like "a nice, realistic price model."

This is why I only leave my kids alone at parties.

I may be wrong, and you can tell me, but the DS4 looks beefier than the DS3. As someone with big hands, the DS3 always felt too small in my hands to be as comfortable as a 360 controller, so I hope they added to the size and density of it to make it more comfortable in that respect.

Simple Truth: A new Donkey Kong Country probably isn't going to sell systems. A new Metroid game in the style of the Prime series most definitely would. I can't watch this video at work, maybe later, but if Rare isn't at least in the initial stages of a Metroid game development cycle, someone at N has F'd up.

Yes, but is it internally accurate?

I'm still not clear which is which.

Compared to the XBO, it's a goddamned Picasso.

It's a sweet ass light that envelopes you in the warmth of gaming goodness, yes.

Personally, I thought the idea of online passes was alright. It gives publishers the opportunity to cash in on the used game market without doing what MS is doing right now, which is basically dismantling the used game market except for their own chosen "business partners" who can still work at that level. The way MS…

Not really, the only exclusives they showed worth talking about were Titanfall, which is coming to PC, and Dead Rising 3, which we all know will end up on other platforms eventually, in some Zombie Killin' Remix version. Capcom is only exclusive as long as the bag of money MS hands them requires them to be. The Halo…

I really like Alan Wake, and this looks interesting, but it's not the game that'll make me buy an XBO.

Comparison reaction video is priceless.
