Seriously, that almost has me buying a PS4. I had to remind myself that I own the original, but that's still awesome. I can't wait til people who haven't played it try it and call it overrated.

No mans sky announced. I can't believe what the guy said, all the players in the same game? That is amazing if true. Looks good too.

Seems very thoughtful and I loved the visual style. I would have loved to see some actual game play.

I used to be a member of a forum called Zero Commit. It was just that. Guys that were older and had no tolerance for kiddie gamers and actually scheduled nights for certain games. This gameplay they showed is EXACTLY how we used to play Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six games. You gotta keep your group of good players together. Screw random rooms.

Really? I just saw the game clip and was blown away. This may be the thing that really pushes me to PS4...

Im sure Ill get it but I just can't imagine what they could do that was more epic than a hybrid race of massive monsters eons old that destroy all advanced life every 50000 years. Anything rlse will feel small on comparison. But of course Ill probably buy a new system just to play the game. Hopefully theyre cheaper in 2015-16 as I doubt this is coming any sooner.

I still play rainbow six Vegas 2 from time to time in terrorist hunt and I can almost always find a hardcore group like this and it's really fun.

Here is a recap of all of the E3 presentations. It highlights the Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony presentations. And followed by decent commentary by folks in the forum.

I know nothing about this game, never heard of it before this.
After watching that preview, I still know nothing about this game, and it really didn't spark my interest at all...
Maybe I'm missing something.

Yeah, this could be a huge hit at my house. I can't tell you how many hours I've sunk in to Oblivion & Skyrim over the years. Finally, the Wii U is delivering on some quality games.

I'm shocked. I'll probably download the beta but my expectations are low.
Not really sure that I agree that one affects the other, but regardless the story is the last thing to worry about in a Bioware game.

Has there even been a side mention of Fallout 4 at E3?

It was expected. It was literally minutes after EA made the announcement. I was surprised I got in to sign up before the servers crashed. I had to go to work anyway, so I could wait. I have it loaded and ready.

Basically it's an infinite universe. The programmed random algorithms so the exploration is never ending. No 2 people start off on the same planet. Everytime you visit a planet or spaceship for the first time, it is recorded that you are the first person to ever set on that planet. Once you do, that planet is now in the solar system for someone else to discover. Same thing goes for animal species. Everyone will be in the game universe, just on different planets until they eventually cross paths. As for a storyline, I don't know much about it yet.The Tick said:

If it has a decent communication system it could be very interesting with co op team work alliances and such.
At the very minimum it is a ship to ship space shooter with an unlimited galaxy to explore where you can land on planets and discover stuff, and apparently everyone will be playing in the universe. Whether you are interested or not you have to admit is a pretty fresh concept.
I think it is intriguing enough that I have to at least try it. (Demo,beta or buy)

It is a game that both x1 guys and PS4 guys can get behind that adds to the fervor.
It is being made by the Halo guys so it is very haloey and that makes x1 guys wet their pants. The PS4 guys like their big epic visually stunning games and they are getting preferential treatment from Bungie.
Bungie has a track record for good games, this is their first real attempt to capture the PS4 audience so the hype PR machine is out of control.
My opinion is it will be like Titanfall and Watch Dogs. It will be a good fun solid game, and that it can't possibly live up to it's own hype.

Yeah i get that. I know I am in the minority but one of the reasons I went from Xbox to PS4 was that I just never cared for the Halo games. I knew the big MS games would be Halo and I always wanted to play the PS exclusive games like Last of Us and Uncharted which were more up my alley.

There are basically a few issues primarily blocking it, basically Microsoft policies.
First MS won't allow it in most cases.
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/microsoft-won-t-allow-xbox-one-pc-cross-platform-play-says-war-thunder-dev/1100-6418587/
(There are a ton of dev stories like this out there just search like Day Z for example, MS is a ### about this)
Second MS has a policy that a game has to be launched on MS first is a lost of cases. Or it can't be cross plat even if they allow it.
Third MS really hates free to play games which a lot of crossers are.
These games come out on PC, or are free to play and they go to Sony because Sony is indie friendly so the PC games tend to get there first and then MS doesn't want anything to do with them.
My guess is they don't allow it because they feel they want to have a captive audience in respect to games with the not cross platform policy, they don't want to look like they got scooped on a great game by being the last one on board and they don't like free to play for whatever reason.

Naw there are some other rich guys with poor impulse control out there.
I buy games too, but I don't have enough time to play all the games on one console much less three of them. I can't be the guy who has 200 unplayed games because he can't resist a good Steam sale.

I have no idea. However, they skipped the Spring Sale this year, which they had last year. Not sure what that was. GOG, Gamersgate and others were having their Spring Sale, nada from Steam.Speaking of Steam, when is the Summer sale? 6/20ish?Naw there are some other rich guys with poor impulse control out there.

For the record, there was no spring sale last year either. Other than minor sales, they've never had one between the winter and summer sale.I have no idea.

I played War Thunder on PS4 for a while a couple of days ago. It's basically a multi-player version of the xb360 game Birds of Steel, but with tanks thrown in.
It's in beta, and a bit hard to follow all of the goings-on outside of the battle, but the battle portion was pretty fun, although I did accidentally shoot down one of my allies.
Fired up World Of Tanks on 360 last night, and it appears that War Thunder ripped almost everything off from it. It's more polished, and it's also free. I haven't actually played a battle, but the training was very similar to what I saw in War Thunder.
I'm not sure which one will win more of my time, but they both have merit.

Me too (have an Xbox One now, will buy a PS4 likely later this year. Not really interested in what Nintendo offers, though)
I'm simply a gamer. I'm a release-day buyer of more games than I probably should be, I'm always trading in games that didn't grab me, etc. I get that I'm losing money by buying a new release for $60, and trading it in / selling it on ebay a month later for $30. I know I should wait six months / a year and buy Watchdogs for $25. But I don't. And I don't care - I truly enjoy the hobby.
