Neither is The Last of Us. Halo 4 was a visual delight for a console game, just as much as The Last of Us.

Eh, Halo 4?

I think they'll use Xbox Arcade (Or what-ever it is called now) for the Xbox 360. Which isn't continuing in the same shape and form on the Xbox One as far as I know. So, they might be waiting out for Microsoft to reveal more about their self publishing strategy, before committing to releasing on the platform.

Maybe because details around self publishing are still a bit sketchy for the Xbox One?

If you hold onto the keys, and wait out the initial cheap keys rush, you can trade and sell your own after a three month period, or so. The Origin bundle is hardly a month old and Steam Key prices are already creeping upward again.

No. Don't really like Grand Theft Auto that much... it is fun for half a hour, to mess around, but after that, eh.

Shogun 2, Tomb Raider, Deus Ex Human Revolution, Civilization 5, XCOM, Saints Row IV. There's quite a few.

To express interest in beta participation, join the Family Sharing Group on the Steam community. The Family Sharing beta will begin in mid-September, when a thousand Steam accounts from this group will be granted access to share their Steam libraries. You’ll know you’ve been selected when you receive an email from…

No release date yet, but they plan to open up either a Kickstarter or Pre-orders soon.

Objectification has only being an issue for a few months as far as the gaming community is concerned and it'll soon enough cease to be an issue when the new flavour of the moment rears its head.

We aren't entitled to govern how matter such as this influence the community at large, individually we can govern how it affects ourselves and influence the community by expressing ourselves. That is the only matter we are remotely close to entitled to.

True, but we don't make our purchasing decision in a vacum. Specifications do matter, they don't matter as much in most games (currently, who knows that the future holds), but games aren't the only consideration when making such a purchase (and that's a good thing!). Coupled with hammering on the ussual exclusive for…

If the priority and value is not set on playing either exclusives for the computer or console, it holds no sway. Hardware performance, of any kind, is relevant in a long term view in the gaming space, especially if performance and or graphical quality is valued.

This is very dependend on what, who and where. The option for more powerful hardware (in the form of a computer) can devalue a console (from a consummer perspective). It is a matter of where you place priority and value.

Graphical videlity does not necesarily translate to "better" gameplay and it may in turn actually detract from gameplay.

So you fit right in?

Bioshock Infinte, Dishonored, Final Fantasy XIV (If I ever get in, that is).

That's Kotaku for you!

300 Yen is about 2,30 Euro. So, pretty similar there.
