THE GAMING HARDWARE THREAD: PS4 - WII U - XBone - PS3 - 360 - WII

[panic vomit]

If anyone here still plays Team Fortress 2, let me know. I've been playing it regularly for nearly two years now, and it's still addicting and very lulzy.

Also I just finished Hitman: Absolution. Even though I disliked the new point rating system, the game was still satisfying to me. Gotta love the many different ways to kill a target.

Supposedly it's announcing the PS4 with a possible release date of November.

All the rumors are getting me amped, I hope the announcement doesn't disappoint!

Supposedly it's announcing the PS4 with a possible release date of November.

In two versions. A $450 and a $550 (or something like that).

[Tubesock Shakur]

No fucking way! Did you read you read that on the Internet?

[Zafocaine]

I think Gamestop posted it on facebook?

[xanman86]

Here is the link to the stream, it starts in 25 minutes but the stream is live already.

Yeah, Gamestop doesn't give a fuck. They like to leak, from what I've seen with their more major items. I'd love to see Gamestop get black listed for jumping the gun. Their exclusive pre-order "deals" are horse shit, and I'm tired of having to go through them for my new games. Nothing beats like some fifteen year old trying to sell you on a game whose story is older than he is as if he's got the power of salesmanship in his blood. The words, "No, I'm really not interested" can't be uttered quickly enough. "If I wanted to spend five extra minutes in here, you'd be the first to know. Alternatively, I'm going to go home, smoke a j, and be glad I don't have to encounter the outside world for another day." Anywho, enjoy your ps4s. Still not sure I'm sold (though the novelty of paying for your monthly "Live" membership wears out about as soon as the first three months free expires. Oops).

[xanman86]

Why don't you stfu for 10 more minutes and let Sony announce it themselves, ya bish.

[Grandma]

if the ps4 is not backwards compatible with ps3 games, they can fuck off and i hope only the worst comes to them.

and don't give me that 'nobody is making you throw away your ps3' horseshit.

Are you flirting? I was going to respond cruelly, which lead me to mentally criticizing Sony's hatred for the United States (I was thinking something along the lines of the PS5 being called the SUPER PERFECT JAPAN BOMB, etc), which lead me back to reading your flirt. If you want to kiss me, just say so. No pet names (bish) if you're not going to make a move.

Whats with you and Supre reading into my posts in such a way? Don't flatter yourself.

No offense to homosexuality, as you all know I love me some gayness, but have you ever considered that you're a little bit flirty with men? It's one thing to have an opinion on a topic that establishes a debate which leads into all out shit talking, but it's another thing to come in, grab my ass, and then look around with that stupid face of yours when I call you on it. "You probably wouldn't even have the common courtesy to give a guy a reach around when you're fucking him in the ass." You inconsiderate fuck.

Even moreso, since the advent of online gaming networks, they better make a way to transfer games you purchased online to the new system along with your stats. 90% of the games I own are house din my PS3 hard drive.

[xanman86]

AHHH PS4 AHHHHH



"Next few hours" OMFG!!!

[Zafocaine]

If consoles don't become network universal, or however you would explain stat tracking and mulitplayer console crossing, then I'll probably just forget about future purchases involving any kind of mp (what's the point if you can't prove your worth against others, and learn while getting dealt with?). I got my 360 and found out quick that I not only had to pay for the online service, but also wouldn't be able to play with/against any of my friends, as ps3 is more popular with the people I know. Also, if consoles could give blowjobs, and make turkey sandwiches. Thank you, Sony Clause.

[xanman86]

Not sure which is sadder, that Zafo thinks people actually read his paragraph long posts or the people who actually do.

[Zafocaine]

Answer: The people who talk about my paragraphs. Question difficulty level: Very Easy

[xanman86]

I can see they exist and not read them.

What do ya'll think about the new controller? Kind of a mix between the regular controller and the PS Move with the camera.

[Zafocaine]

That's how I feel about speed limits.

Damn, you tricked me into reading this by keeping it short.

[xanman86]

Stream died on me, anyone else?

i'm sure they will. also considering the fact that dlc exists now which didn't exist on the ps2 means that it makes more sense for them to support backwards compatibility.

[xanman86]

So far it looks like all the backwards compatibility will be over the net either through download or streaming.

[nathanfairchild]

what's with all this sharing shit?

[xanman86]

PS 1, 2, and 3 games fully streaming to any device!?!?
