I went with an Xbox first since most of my friends went that way. I do have to admit sometimes I am jealous of the PS4 in terms of how smooth their launch has been.

If we were to pick up a PS4 what games are worth getting? I went with an Xbox one to start since all of my friends went that way. Overall I find both consoles lacking at best when it comes to actual games, but I do like the PS4 interface.

I do hope this is where things are going because so far it's been nothing but what "resolution is your game at" and "multiplayer! It's different this time we swear"

Gotta love Bit Wars 2.0 coming into fashion with the launch of this generation. This time it's not one console vs. another, it's consumer vs. developer.

I very much agree. Sometimes I miss the simpler types of comic plots where half the planet gets destroyed. I know I'm super late to the party but I just got around to playing through Arkham Origins, and I always ask myself "Why the hell would anyone live in Gotham City?"

Great article. I usually have a mix, and personally I always say, play the game how YOU want to play. Don't let people force you into roles (this is coming from a Vanilla WoW shaman who refused to play as a healer ever).

Another thought about this is the price and configuration of the WiiU is all wrong. So you figure you either have people who like Nintendo from their youth, or families buying the console. Why then do you sell it with only one controller (not to mention you need to buy two remotes/classic controllers to play 2 players)

I don't necessarily agree they have to get into the frame rate wars since games that are fun tend to sell well. How many fps is Angry Birds? That game has silly at best graphics and in my opinion not a whole lot of gameplay, but it's everywhere you turn around. They need to get back to making a combo of good gameplay…

I know I'm likely to be shunned for this, but I'd love for them to get away from non stop Mario/Zelda titles. There are so many other franchises at their disposal that I just get tired of oh look it's Super Mario bros. repeat.

Played the beta for only an hour last night. So far I do like it. I've always had a thing for Sci-Fi MMOs over fantasy. Yes it's not exactly re-inventing the wheel as far as MMOs go but do you really need to if your game is fun?

For a cheap hardware upgrade with a lot of improvement get a SSD. You can find the Samsung EVO line on sale all the time. I was blown away at the improvement I saw over my regular drive.

Great read. I still pine for some of those great Bullfrog games. I still remember being so impressed as a teenager with theme hospital when it came out. I only wish they'd go back to those fun sim games.
