Ah ok I assumed they weren't even out yet not their website is pretty poo poo. i thought I signed up for the email notification but I might have to again. Pretty excited regardless I used the poo poo out of my xim3 on Xbox. Not that it matters right now since the new COD isn't out as well as Destiny. I think the xim3 was like $175 + $15 shipping  least this is $125

I just got my PS4 on Monday, and swapped out the DS4 thumbsticks with Xbone ones on Tuesday. Controller is perfect now. Took about 10-15 mins to do it. All you need is a Size 0 Phillips screwdriver and some pliers/tweezers to detach/reattach the Touchpad cable. Only difficult part of the entire process was pulling the controller apart after unscrewing the 4 screws on the back. The clip-in mechanism they have on the controller for the front and back plates to attach is quite the bitch to pull apart. I actually hosed up pulling the backplate off the top of the controller properly, and detached the L2 trigger with its spring. I was able to put it back in a matter of seconds, though. As somebody who was pretty nervous about taking it apart, it's quite easy. The only risk you run is if you're being an idiot and start pulling pieces apart and tear cables. (Which won't happen if you have eyes)

Saw CoD Ghosts on sale for $19.99 when I stopped by the local Tiger Direct to see if they had any PS4 Gold headsets in stock(they didn't) so I grabbed a copy since I had enjoyed previous CoD games. God drat do I regret this purchase. By far the worst CoD game I have ever played. I've enjoyed all of Treyarchs CoD games but man Infinity Ward is downright terrible now.

mikeycp posted:The single player is fun enough. It gets pretty hard though. I would scratch out Fun and say "Novel". It's cool to check out but you won't likely play it much. In other news: Road Not Taken is awesome. I love so much about it. However I feel like one of a couple of possible things is going on here: It's either: Slightly too hard. Needs to allow you some kind of checkpointing or SOME kind of persistent improvement. Or some combination of the two. I have played it and every time I get super excited to be playing such a cool, whimsical game only to always fail on level 4. (Of like 15 "Years") A lot of times you get into these map/boards where you can barely move and end up taking damage or loving things up or something. It just feels a bit too unforgiving.

I hated that game until the moment I hit the credits, then immediately played through it again. The story does you no favors, but it's ridiculous enough to be entertaining once you know what in the hell is going on and who all these names are that are getting tossed around. Never touched MP because I'm weird/possibly smart.
