"Exclusive for Holiday 2015" is the worst loving marketing speak I've ever heard.

The Taint Reaper posted:I still want a mass effect trilogy that includes all of the DLC. God yes. Played all 3 on PC, would love to head through them again with a controller on the couch. As far as Tomb Raider, I love that they marketdroids are already coyly saying "it'll be out on other things eventually" and not just denying it upfront.

You always get the impression from him that he hates what his job has become, and can't stand being the shill mouthpiece that he is. But he doesn't see any alternative if he wants to keep the (relative) fame and prominence he has in the industry, and he can't bring himself to give that up. Brendan Fraser should play him in the biopic.

Yeah, I think the 2 TB drive is hit-and-miss, it's like right on the edge of the maximum power output of a PS4 and it only works on some units with no rhyme or reason. The 1.5 TB drive is the largest "safe" choice that will pretty much work with anything.

Did you update the PS4 firmware before you took the original HD out? I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that they added support for 2TB drives in an update.

The 1.5 TB drive is the largest "safe" choice that will pretty much work with anything. I was going to chime in with this. I would guess that very minor manufacturing defects can make an individual 2TB unit, even the models people have gotten to work, just suck up a little too much power to work in the PS4. That's why 1.5TB is currently the largest supported drive. Again, I'm going to advocate the 1TB hybrid. That Tomb Raider thing is sort of amusing. I mean, I guess it's a safer bet for a huge marketing blitz than Sunset Overdrive, which gets more mixed responses, but it's still just Tomb Raider. I wonder how much cash was involved.

PantsBandit posted:People have different metrics on fighting games than you do, maybe? Injustice is easy to get into, stars recognizable characters, looks good, and still manages to have a decent amount of strategic depth. Plus, plenty of people found Bastion to be GOTY in a year that included games like Skyrim and Arkham city. Megasabin posted:If Injustice can be considered a great fighting game, and Transistor is GOTY, I think that says a lot for how this year in games has been going so far. Although to be fair a large portion of triple AAA releases are Sept-Dec. It also helped that Injustice was €15 and let me throw cars at my friends before punching them through the moon. I never got to play Bastion, so that probably helped me get starry-eyed over Transistor.

As of firmware 1.7 I think, maybe earlier, there shouldn't be any issue with that drive, there was a 50/50 shot of it working prior to that, but it should be fine now.

Are there any other sources for that? To be fair, Xbox isn't about to go "Don't worry PS4 users, you'll be able to play eventually!" and I don't think they'd like it if SE did the same. All you get is just some reading between the lines. EDIT: And also we've been down this path before, with other "exclusive" games.

Are there any other sources for that? The fact that they haven't come right out and said 'it's not coming to PS4 and PC' and are instead using very cagey language is a giveaway. For example, the announcement saying "Coming Holiday 2015 Exclusively on Xbox" rather than the "Only on Xbox" wording real exclusives get. It's subtle, but it's there. The best explanation for that is that it's timed but they don't want people to know about that for as long as possible.

I played TR when it came out on PS+ and I wasn't really thrilled with it, after the initial intro I found it sort of boring. Don't think I ever beat it. I might pick up Definitive Edition when it's been out for long enough to be super cheap, but as far as console exclusives go I don't really think it's a big deal that the Xbone's getting it. (Plus even if they claim until they're blue in the face that it'll be an exclusive forever, I guarantee you they will eventually port it to PC/PS4 within a few years as an "ultimate edition" or whatever.)

Hmm...I didn't, so maybe I'll try that. The original is in, and it's all set up and working now...though the only games I have are the two free PS+ games right now (Fez and...something else I can't recall.) I'll also put the HD back in the enclosure and see if it can be seen by my PC.

I'm actually way more pissed about the next Tomb Raider being loving cross-gen in Holiday 2015. Even when the Definitive Edition comes out Summer 2016 it's still going to be designed around the limitations of the 360, what a shame.

Journey is targetiing 60FPS for the PS4 release, and Unfinished Swan is coming to PS4. No word on the efpeeses of the Unfinished Swan, but both will be cross buy! Just makes me upset I never did finish or 100% Unfinished Swan when I had a functioning PS3. Not opposed to trying the Unfinished Swan again though.
