I never realised the soundtrack was that impressive (credentials wise). Really looking forward to diving into this.

At the end: "This game is a teaser. It has no direct relation to the main title."

Silent Hills will be a graphical and conceptual clone of Excite Bike, R.C. Pro-Am, and Double Dragon for NES.

So the next Tomb Raider is Xbox exclusive. You could almost smell the desperation from the Gamescom Microsoft presentation.

 

 

being an xbox exclusive didn't work very well financially for the guys that made RYSE. Apparently if they make a RYSE 2 it won't be an xbox exclusive for the now downsized company.

 

Yeah, Ryse is now coming to PC. I don't mind games made by the company (e.g. Microsoft or Sony or Nintendo) made soley for their console, but the third parties need to stop being lured by the first party's moneybags and realize they'll make more overall if they go multiplatform. Then again, some studios don't have the resources to do all platforms at once, and ironically, the exclusivity money may actually help them realize their game for alternate platforms.

 

They finally admitted that Boob Raider is a "timed" exclusive, but won't say how long. Goes to show you the backlash sometimes proves helpful.

 

I'm glad, it will clearly sell more on PS4 (because of the install base now), hopefully by the time it reaches, we'll get a definitive edition or something.

 

If they release anything but what they end up releasing on XBONE/360, the Microsoft fanboys will rage HARD.

Been saving up for a new console, pretty sure I'm going to get the white ps4.

The Destiny Bundle would be a good way to do that... if you want Destiny.

I do. I tried the beta on my xbox360 and I'm guessing it really doesn't do it justice, but I enjoyed what I played. I also never had a ps3, so I'm hoping I can somehow play old ps3 titles like flower, journey, etc. But not really sure how that's going to work. Been saving for almost 6 months, cannot wait until September.

I know Ryse and Dead Rising 3 probably won't come out for PS4, but it's in CD's best interest to release TR on everything they possibly can.

I jumped into PS3 about a year ago, and had so many games to play exclusive to the platform. Sadly, I don't think you'll get a chance to play them unless you use their Now service.

Flower, Flow, and now Journey are on PS4. Sony seems keen on revisiting their PS3 must-have titles on PS4, so I don't think you'll miss much.

I'm under the impression that Silent Hills will be an overhaul of the original game from 1999. Looks promising.

I wanna play Wasteland 2, but I'm still waiting another two months for that fat chunk of change to come in to buy a new rig. I planned on a new laptop, since my current one is five years old. But all this talk of PS4 almost tempts me into buying one of those instead..

Good for you. White PS4 is IDM as fuck.

Although the white haedphones make it look a bit douchey

The only bit I don't like is how the control bits are black still... but then again, having them white as well would mean the controller would get sooo dirty...

I read up some on that playstation now service. My internet speed is pretty ghetto, not sure if I'll be able to efficiently play streaming from a magical data cloud. But it is very nice to see they are going to release some older gems on the ps4. I've wanted to play flower and journey for a long time. That 360 degrees defender type game that came out with the ps4 also looks great.

The "P.T." playable teaser/tech demo for PS4 is awesome and scary as fuck! It definitely brings back the classic Silent Hill vibe of the first 4, really unsettling. Kojima and Del Toro working together is gonna be amazing. Norman Reedus as the main charachter is a nice icing on the cake as well. As a long time Silient Hill fan and fan of Kojima's games I cannot wait for this!

I just watched a Let's Play of P.T. and now I am immensely excited for this. Even with a Youtube commentator talking it was still unnervingly scary. If the quality is up to par with that teaser (I don't see why it wouldn't be), then I expect great things. I really hope it's in first person, too, as the immersion provided by that view really takes the horror to another level.

P.T. is sat on the PS4, waiting to scare the bejesus out of me...

I'm looking forward to getting more scares with the new Zero (Fatal Frame) on Wii U:

I'm a big fan of the series, actually importing a Japanese unit for it (damn you Nintendo and your archaic approach to region locking), but I also have a collection of Japanese Wii games tucked away so I get to enjoy those at last as well. Fortunately I have a man in Japan who can grab one for me, and fingers crossed I will duck any import duties. Can't wait.

They recommend at least 5Mb down, so unless you are on really low-tier DSL, I think you might be OK - it has a test you can run to see if your connection is up to snuff (and I strongly recommend a hardwire connection, especially with the PS3, as the PS3 wifi radio sucks (and is only 802.11G).

You're talking about Resogun (which was given away FREE on PS+) - one of the PS4's best games, hands down. They recently came out with an expansion which I happily bought and still play it.

HOLY SHIT I played this last night (with the lights off, of course) with my son - this was the first time in about 20+ years I have felt actual fear (and got goosebumps) playing a game (or any game for that matter) - the level of immersion in the demo is amazing, and if the full game keeps that, Silent Hills will be an amazing game, for sure. The puzzles in the demo are incredibly well done - we still haven't got the phone to ring or the baby to laugh twice - and for God's sake, DON'T look in the bathroom sink (really, DO look - disturbing as FUCK).

The P.T. final puzzle is extremely difficult. I've been watching streamers fail for hours and hours the last few days. No one can even give a definite answer about the solution even though people have beaten it multiple times.

Yeah no one actually seems to know why you have to do those certain actions for the last puzzle. The first people to do it must have fluked it or brute forced it, and then most others were given hints, read forums or just watched the streams to complete it.

Joyrex, might as well tell you now you will never complete that last puzzle unless someone tells you. It's just so obscure and seemingly random (though I'm sure the devs have some bizarre explanation).

Edit: actually you probably already know as you're aware you need the phone to ring

I'm pretty sure a friend and I have figured out how to solve the puzzle to get the phone to ring in PT (If we're right it's pretty obscure and more-so involves not doing anything than a set of actions), but I haven't been able to test it in my own game yet... Girlfriend's mom and little sister are visiting and I can't play while her sister is around. I should get a chance at some point today.

Late to it but I'm working my way through Bioshock Infinity. It is quite enjoyable, the rails are fun to fuck about on doing target practice. Not sure if it will get too same-y as it goes but at the moment it's enjoyable.
