I seriously doubt this will happen. The differences in hardware would make it really hard unless you use the PC versions of multiplat games but I have to wonder if that would be legally difficult. Also please tell me no one thinks this is an official confirmation because holy shit this is not something Sony would ever put out in a million years. I mean look at it! That is not corporate speak in any way. Why is the 4 so fucking small? Fuck white backgrounds. GTA 5 isn't even out yet and you want a rerelease on a new console?

I liked the XMB. It was pretty simple to use and elegant. Didn't have to dig through menu after menu to find what I wanted.

Unless you needed to change something in the options because then God help you.

Seriously though I really disliked the XMB and preferred the Xbox interface pretty much the whole generation so I hope they can make some serious changes to make it look like a modern UI. Since it looks like I'll be getting a PS4 I really hope they can make an interface that is more appealing this time.

@humanity: Yeah he just puts on glasses, but to be fair most people never saw him so it kinda works. Of course the guy giving him the job DID see him as Superman but we'll let that slide as who wouldn't give superman a job?

Overall really enjoyed the movie. Thought the action was awesome and even though some of the story stuff didn't work out as well as I was hoping for, I still think it was a pretty good movie. I enjoyed it about as much as I did Iron Man 3 earlier this summer.

You must realize the people who only buy a CoD and a Madden title each year aren't that into gaming to know or care about any of this DRM stuff. Once they find out they won't care either.

I think that's a rather big leap of assumption. I have a coworker that play Call of Duty for 95% of his gaming time, the rest he spends trying out other first person shooters (Borderlands, Far Cry, etc.) but it's pretty much all about CoD. His friend's list is filled with CoD players (some who regularly posts to YouTube, you know the type). He and I had a conversation about this whole thing and he's considering going PS4 based on this whole DRM/24 hour check-in nonsense. And according to him, a majority of his friends list is looking that way too. And much like you make an assumption, all I can offer in return is hearsay. But it's a thing I've been saying for a long time, people underestimate this block of players as some mindless mass of idiots. Plenty of them might be narrow in their game-taste, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are mindless consumers.

I've actually had a similar experience with a co-worker that made me rethink my position that most people don't care about used games. He plays Battlefield and Call of Duty and thats it but he was still saying things like "Man no used games is fucked up" so now I'm getting a bit worried that Microsoft might be farther behind than they think.

Of course it might do the company good to get knocked on its ass at launch because then they might change their policies.

My suggestion is either t take a break for awhile like I do periodically or try games you've never tried before. I'm talking about strange and interesting games or just a genre of games you've never tried before. That's what I've been doing with hardcore strategy games and some of the more artsy indie games lately.

Hahahaha that is awesome. Admitedly it kinda comes from a shitty place with licenses instead of owning games but still thats hilarious. I would love to see some whiny kid on Xbox Live weeping because his games were taken away because he was racist on Xbox Live.

Yep. Not often doritos since its a pain to always get the dust off your hands between chips but I will do it sometimes and I drink Mountain dew somtimes as well. I'm sure at least once I've combined the two but I don't seek it out.

Average of 10 I would say. Usually a little less but sometimes way more.

I would probably stop playing games if there were no AAA games so, yes I would. Indie games are interesting but rarely meaty enough for me to enjoy for long.

Not anymore, I did as a kid because I didn't appreciate the fact that developers weren't getting paid for the game I just wanted to play it for as cheap as possible. Now however I would rather give my money to the people who make the games instead of the used game market.

The only time I buy used is when it is only available used because its out of print. Though with this all digital future I may not have to worry about that anymore.
