Didn't the ps2 have good games though? The only similarities I see is that they are both made by Sony and they both launched with no functioning online capabilities

You're right sorry, the ps4 has no good games currently nor will it have any in the future. I just have incredible buyers remorse about not being able to grind a rail in sunset overdrive while making radical hand gestures, defeat the covenant again after 10 years, engage in thrilling races spectated by lifelike 2D crowds or beat gay roman guys through QTE.

All in 720p glory. Xbox one all in one. Is it too late to jump in?

I wonder if reviewers will do a second review/revision for driveclub like they did for BF4 and SimCity?

You guys should probably try shilling the Wii U in the PS4 thread. They're the ones more likely to be desperate for a decent game to play. It's funny checking in on the thread every so often and seeing people getting excited over playing Towerfall, Spelunky, Binding of Issac, TLoU, etc.

It's funnier than relying on a 10 year old game to reduce overstock

I never said they were bad games (they aren't), just that you bought a $500 console and get excited to play poo poo you have played on PC and/or PS3 before. Hell Towerfall is available on the OUYA (and it has a youtube app!), coulda saved $400!

Well the difference is that you can call a spade a spade in the PS4 thread so it's not as funny. You say driveclub is a lovely game with a botched release, and that there are overpriced phone games on sale that are also mostly lovely in the psn store and people will agree and be like "yeah it's a problem" instead of accepting a company to repeatedly poo poo into your mouth and thank them for the experience

How has Microsoft shat into our mouth since release? We've had a constant flow of excellent games and OS improvements. We haven't had games promised to us then delayed, then eventually launched and not working anyway, an unstable multiplayer network which you are now forced to pay for with no signs of showing improvement and a controller that barely holds a charge and has a light you can't even turn off that reflects off your TV. I think you're looking at the wrong anus!

Ps4 is the $400 console, for accuracy's sake.

On the other hand you bought a $500 set top box thinking it would make an awesome games console. This is much funnier than "indie games lol" imho.

Some people did try to peddle the Wii U there but they just got brushed aside/ignored by all the excited chat about some games. Unlike here where any FUD bait post got gobbled up hook, line and sinker and the defense force ends up being busy berating the PS4 to non-PS4 owners. This thread is like watching a bunch of little kids crying and yelling at a bunch of other kids teasing them. It's the saddest thread in SA.

Why on earth would you care about toy sales numbers in any way shape or form compared to another toy beyond "will games be developed for it"

Especially in response to someone saying the ps4 doesn't have a lot of games it just makes you look desperate

Last time I was all friendly and positive a mod had to ask in the thread if they had any proof that I was an actual shill from Microsoft so I could be banned. Shadow Puppet ended up getting banned instead though :v: People literally couldn't accept the fact that I liked an xbox that they thought I was working for Microsoft.

How much Sony stock do you own? You seem to go on about sales numbers a lot like it actually matters.

You own a console that's biggest exclusive of the year is literally operating on a 'one in one out' policy, like some sort of new hot dance club. Except when you do finally get to the front of the long line you realise that it's completely poo poo and definitely wasn't worth the 60 dollar cover charge.
