Sheikah Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Haha. That's gold...what would you even say if you tracked your parcel and it said that.
Agent Gibbs Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 What is the point? I get that these kind of things are done deliberately for PR etc but when it comes down to it... this is still senseless destruction of technology which I will never abide by or even begin to understand. What happened to the days of priding yourself in keeping your games consoles in good condition? Not as in immaculate, unplayed condition but I've always seen it as part of owning a games console that you enjoy playing, treat the machine with a little respect by not damaging it and it will last a very long time providing you with countless hours of joy. : peace: Roll on launch day! I can't understand it myself but its just clickbait designed to get people watching and see how they destroy things, like the "will it blend" videos still the best one of these i've ever seen is where someone glued and iphone 5to the groung outside a phone shop on launch day and then filmed people trying to pick it up.....
Zechs Merquise Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Cover your eyes children! That first shot was such a clean exit wound, the PS4 did well. The second shot however was the real money shot, epic exit wound - game over!

Happenstance Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I think despite already owning the proper version on PC I might actually get the PS4 version of Minecraft. It would just be nice to be able to play multiplayer on it quickly by inviting friends to my world instead of having to sort out servers.

If it helps any I owned the PC version before buying the Xbox 360 version and have enjoyed playing multiplayer immensely. My biggest gripe with it was the smaller world and crappy draw distance which will probably be fixed with the next gen versions.

I think I just also wonder how much I will end up playing it without all my favourite mods but we'll see I guess.

Ah, then the trade off might not be worth it. I know there are times when, after playing the PC version with mods, the Xbox 360 version can seem a bit restrictive.
Sheikah Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Hmm, people getting excited now? Not sure if this is known, but ASDA have PS4 + Killzone bundles available for guaranteed release date delivery for £385. 2.1% Topcashback too. Edited November 15, 2013 by Sheikah
Jimbob Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Had a go on the PS4 today. Excuse the dirt. Damn fine machine indeed, the controller as it's been said feels so so comfortable. The back of the control pad has a kind of a grip at the back, which certainly helps if playing for a long period of time. They had a demo of Knack on, which as i mentioned wasn't too good. Had a chat with a member of staff who was setting up the consoles, he said the PS4 has been the most popular demo'd machine since setting up. I also got a few snaps of the Xbox One whilst in-store, they are in the correct thread.

Much obliged, was hoping something like this would pop up. Just put my order in! Hype train can officially leave the station. Choo choooooo :bouncy: :bouncy:
Happenstance Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Great moment from last nights Giant Bomb PS4 stream

Jamba Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Had a go on the PS4 today. Dude, did you try Octodad? So damn funny.
Cookyman Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 After some deliberation I've just ordered a 1tb drive for the PS4 and an enclosure for the 500gb one that comes with the console.
Jimbob Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Dude, did you try Octodad? So damn funny. They didn't have that on demo in-store, only Knack and Fifa.
Happenstance Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Thanks to last nights stream I think I might have to get Assassin's Creed IV and NBA 2K14 now as well. Probably wait a few months for their prices to drop but I thought both looked good.
Jamba Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 They didn't have that on demo in-store, only Knack and Fifa. From the look of the unit, it's the standard one. If you press down on the menu screen, it takes you to a different carousel where all of the Indie games one. Four different playable ones :-)
Shorty Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 After some deliberation I've just ordered a 1tb drive for the PS4 and an enclosure for the 500gb one that comes with the console. I'm sure you know that you can't use that makeshift external HDD with the PS4, but I thought I'd remind you just in case.
Cube Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 I'm sure you know that you can't use that makeshift external HDD with the PS4, but I thought I'd remind you just in case. I thought you could use an external HDD to back up game files and saves? So instead of deleting, you could move stuff to the external then back to the PS4 if you wanted it (instead of re-downloading).
Cookyman Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 I'm sure you know that you can't use that makeshift external HDD with the PS4, but I thought I'd remind you just in case. Yes, well aware thanks.

Probably wait a few months for their prices to drop but I thought both looked good. Did you see all the weird OS stuff they had going on? Booting games and getting kicked back to the OS for no reason. Game saves corrupting, the OS chugging when installing games (a process that was touted as seamless), also the patching/installing process for a new game seems super confusing to me. It's slightly worrying that these problems can happen if PSN is down and makes me wonder how it runs with no internet at all....is it that reliant on a stable internet connection just to run? I thought you could use an external HDD to back up game files and saves? So instead of deleting, you could move stuff to the external then back to the PS4 if you wanted it (instead of re-downloading). If you can it's not available from day one if the internet is anything to go by. It seems a lot of sacrifices have been made to have a fluent firmware for now hopefully all this stuff gets ironed out and they aren't left chasing Microsoft on an OS feature set again. Whether people like to accept it I do feel that played into peoples minds early in the day more than we'd like to think.

Yeah I saw them. Its nearly all related to the PSN launch day struggles so im not exactly worried.

The UI was different to that the console will have, so i guess Indie games aren't demo'd.
