You can check Amazon on occasion, and run to Best Buy this morning if you can. I think they got stock of both consoles for today's ad.
what time did you have to get there to get a ps4
Do you have a reading comprehension issue? Right now there is no way to get a ps4 unless you buy it in a bundle. That means I would have to pay for a bunch of extra crap that I don't need if i got one now. I will be getting a ps4 when they atr in stock non bundle.
That is the problem with Xbox fans in general. Xboys have a real mob mentality and anyone who dares to suggest that they are buying a inferior product has to be shouted down as a troll.
No where do you specify buying the bundled PS4 and I can't read your mind. I think you need to communicate your thoughts a little better when you're writing a post.
Really? What would you like to know? I would gladly answer any question you have about PS4.
It looks like they are online bundles avail at Toys R US now.
The store opened at 10, I got there at 8 and they passed out tickets at 9. It was cold and wet but worth it, didn't have to buy a bundle or anything.
thanks, should have tried. around here they always seem short supply and i am lazy.
Aww. I half-way expected you to tell me about this epic battle between the Xbox buyers and the PS4 buyers.
Yes, it makes for a lot of garbage to sift through. When someone is knowingly trolling, I wish people would just disregard it and move on with fruitful conversation.
You state the reason. The article stated the reason. Microsoft cut a deal worth a lot of money to EA to make Titanfall an exclusive for Microsoft platforms (XB1, 360, Windows)
I know they cut a deal, they dont release the figures of that agreement. I know they have competent people making these decisions to go exclusive but with the amount of money big games can make, I don't see a reason to go one party anymore. But, maybe Titanfall when they landed the agreement were no so sure it was going to be a super hit and just wanted some guaranteed coin from Microsoft and to be featured in a full marketing campaign. Just wanted to get some discussion going on something non fanboyish here.
I owned a PS1, PS2 and at one point owned a PS3. I'll likely buy a PS4 too.Please feel free to continue to add nothing to this thread, as evidence by your inability to refute any of my post.
I wouldn't necessarily use the term "superior" because -- as you said-- there are quite a few features of the Xbox that the PS4 does worse or doesn't do at all. (Media support, television play-through, Skype integration, etc). And if somebody prefers the Xbox controller or the Xbox's exclusives or has a bunch of a friends on Xbox, those are all things that might tip a reasonable person to that console.STEADYMOBBIN 22 said:
I don't know any of the details but I agree that this is probably what was going through the minds of the decisionmakers at EA/Respawn. When you think about EA's optimal use of capital, it makes sense from a risk reward perspective to get committed funding and marketing from a third party on a title that, while looking quite attractive, is completely unproven. Sure Titanfall could be a massive hit and they would be passing up on billions, but if that upside scenario is achieve they will still make a lot of money and can capitalize on this success across platforms with Titanfall 2. But if Titanfall is a bust, like the majority of games that are produced, they would have drastically limited their losses while still giving the game ample opportunity to succeed.
That's how I look at this too. EA is almost certainly getting a very big check from Microsoft to keep this game off the PS4. Yes, it loses some sales as a result, but that check also removes some of the inherent risk that comes along with a new IP. It can also count on Microsoft marketing the hell out of this game, which further increases the value of the franchise. Then when Titanfall 2 comes around, EA is in a stronger position to negotiate an even jucier exclusivity deal or cash in by going multiplatform.
Not for most multiplatform games no.
Damn, that makes two extension cables I'll need to purchase. One for the Kinect, one for the TV. Not to mention, my controller disconnects every 15 minutes and they want me to mail it back on my dime. No bueno.
That was last gen. This is the current gen. We already know that developers aren't shooting for console parity and that one console in particular is going to consistently benefit as a result.
Have you used the fantasy football app at all. The fantasy football app looked interesting but I didn't know if it was going to be the same as a website dashboard or if you could modify it for your league.
I remember reading a article about this. Basically MS was kinda mad that the guys that made Halo were making Destiny and refused to make it a MS exclusive. There was some bad blood and the Destiny guys offered the exclusive content for Destiny to Sony. MS with the loss of the Halo guys were going to continue with Halo but went looking for another signature exclusive series and settled on Titanfall and made the appropriate arrangements.
Here is what was weird about that. At launch it was widely reported that there was a slight judder on xbox when the frame rate when it sometimes dropped to 50 FPS and that the PS4 had a frame rate drop that would slow the video to a crawl.
such a bias free thread
