Knack 2 straight up looks like a hd edition of a PS3 game, and not one of the good looking exclusive ones.

They are the only major market that publishes real data where the sales race is even close enough to be worth looking at.

Like japan also has real numbers but they consider 60 units sold to be a great week for xbox.

Who is the person who considers 60 units a great week?

Instead of the annual Xbox derail you could discuss Knack or Destiny or the PSP3 or possibly skip straight to the Bloodborne derail.

Hopefully people have asked this before but has anyone else seen their ps4 just randomly eject the disc and then not accept another for awhile? Mine does it periodically (whether on or in standby) for random discs apropos of nothing.

If it sounds like it's constantly ejecting and/or it beeps when it happens then it is probably the crappy eject button.

Cool, any fix I cando rather that just call on Monday for a repair? Always thought the buttons on the thing are terrible.

I went through a bunch of suggested fixes with mine and nothing would last, if you are willing to send it for repairs you'll probably have to eventually.

I ended up getting one of the newer models without that design flaw.

I find pre-order bonuses, especially retailer specific ones, far more obnoxious than infinitely repeatable microtransactions (for an item I never used in Destiny1), but if I boycotted games based on that I'd miss out on far too many games I want to play.

I have no objections to other people doing so though. What does amuse me is that the big Reddit thread I saw about the issue is calling on people to not spend any money on microtransactions until they change the way shaders work (rather than boycott the game)... which suggests the people involved would otherwise be spending money on microtransactions for stuff that isn't specifically shaders, which kind of indicates a tacit support of microtransactions in general.

Somehow loot boxes are actually a selling point now. It probably won't be too long until some unlucky game gets blasted for not having them.

I want every game to have Saints Row 2/3 levels of customization. Make yourself into whatever the hell monstrosity you want to be, then change your mind an hour later. Wear any combination of clothes with any colour options you like, go from sophisticated man of class to distressed technomage to something that would make every member of the Village People feel too formally dressed. Make your vehicles ridiculously gaudy or ultra-black, with huge spoilers, spiked wheels, wacky horns and a dozen bells and whistles. At the cost of, what, ten minutes dicking around and causing chaos?

Well Saints Row 3 had worse customization than Saints Row 2 and the last two Saints Row games had none at all so good luck.

I didn't deauthorize anything when I transferred to my Firecuda 2TB. I only have 1 account though. Just copied to my 3TB USB3 drive, swapped drives, installed firmware on new drive via the thumb drive method, then restored from my 3TB drive. It took awhile, but was worth it.

Also:
a) 500GB is not enough if you have a few replayable games (racing game, Madden or Fifa, a FPS of choice, etc.) and then whatever AAA story based game(s) you are working on (especially if you are waiting on DLC for one and don't want to reinstall all the patches in a couple months), then add in indies at 5-20GB a pop, 1TB isn't even enough.

b) If using a SSHD, I would rather have it as the internal drive and move the original HDD to external, right now my original 1TB that came with my pro is set aside while I wanted to make sure my transfer of P.T. went smoothly (even though I won't play it again) and the Firecuda doesn't die since it seems from reviews that it will either die within 6 months or last the normal lifespan of a SSHD; but if the 2TB gets full, then the 1TB will become and external add-on,

c) I am glad they let you claim your PS+ games now without having to download when you go through the console instead of the website, it used to be annoying when it auto-downloaded. The XB1 went the opposite way with only claiming before and now auto-downloading, and my 500GB + 1TB external on that is 97% full just from Gold freebies, and

d) I hate using the front USB ports for anything permanent, it looks like poo poo. I am glad the Pro has a back USB port that I use for some USB fans to push hot air out of my TV stand cubby and pull cool air in. So hoping I never have to add on the other external drive because then it will make it look messy.

You know you can cancel a download, right?

Hey guys I played A Way Out with my gf and it's actually really good? Kind of cheesy, obviously a game just about QTEs and the cutscenes between them, and the ending (big spoilers ahead) really got to me. I knew that one of them was going to die, but I never thought that it'd be because the other killed them. We had Vincent die, and hearing him read out the letter to his wife about how he was going to be a good husband and dad got me a little choked up. Honestly better game than I expected, though I would've liked more asymetry in how the two approached different situations and interactive stuff around the environment.

Guess what I'm looking for is a co-op sequel to the Goblins series.
