Indie: open world games have to be the exceptional ones for me to get any real enjoyment from them. The GTA's, Red Dead, or Assassins Creed....worlds that I can just enjoy the sheer amount of detail in.

In GTA IV and V for example, I'd just go walking my character down all the back alleys and walkways, marveling at the detail they have thrown in, just to make it feel like a coherent place.

I did like Just Cause 2....but fuck me the world was dull as fuck. It was all cut and paste buildings etc. You never felt like you were seeing new things.

So in the main I do prefer linear games. It's why I like RPG's really, especially Jap ones, as you are pushed along the story and I enjoy that. Being told where to go next keeps the game fresh for me.

By the way, when did Jap become offensive to people? I believe you can get banned from NeoGaf now for using Jap instead of JP. You can say scots, brits, aussies, yanks, poles etc etc. But say Japs and people get up in arms....I fail to see why?

Is "Jap's Eye" still OK though?

I need to know that, because that is like proper medical terminology.

Am I the only person here who is cock crazy?
Yes. Yes you are.

Sorry.

Nope, I'm the same
With the exception of proper nerdy role plays I have little time for vagina gaming
Don't think completed one yet

Early days, but hand in heart, if I had to do it again I'd have saved 500 and it got an xbox one. That's a big thing for me to say as I've been an xbox gamer since week one of the original xbox.

I think the only thing I would miss not having a one would be dead rising, which is currently the best next gen game I have played, but honestly, not worth that much

The ps4 is certainly better value for money
The desktop is not the confused mess that the xbox ones currently is
It also seems to work more intuitively

Day one with xbox I popped a game disk in and had no indication anything was happening, with a 3.5mb internet connection it was the next day before I could play the games and that's after I had to do factory reset as thought it was not doing anything

Ps4 certainly shows its a games machine first and foremost
I'll not sell my one and still will enjoy it, but I'll certainly not be so brand led next time

I honestly don't get peoples confusion using the Xbox One dashboard. You just tell Kinect what you want and it finds it! The PS4 has the same issues the PS3 has in that it hides what should be connected options, under various headings which can make things confusing.

I get that if there is a big patch it can be a pain in the arse updating. But that slow internet speed is still slow whether you use an Xbox One or a PS4 surely?

I've seen some people complain that when you first stick a game disc in the Xbox One that it takes ages to install. But that's because it installs the whole game to the hard drive, instead of just parts of a game like the PS4.

Biggest thing for me is of course, the pad. And the silent running of the Xbox One. The PS4 isn't what you would call noisy, but compared to the Xbox One it sounds like a jet engine when that clunky drive starts whirring up. I can honestly never tell when my Xbox One is on or off if the TV isn't switched on it's that quiet.

No denying the PS4 is more powerful, but I am glad I own both because they will both have must play exclusives. And if the Xbox One continues to sell slower than the PS4 you know MS will throw money wherever it is needed to get as many high profile exclusives as they can. Something that Sony just can't afford to do.

I think for me it will be a reversal of last hen where my ps3 was used just for exclusive titles and the 360 for exclusives and cross platform

Let's hope they manage titanfall at 1080p 60fps as the euro gamer preview seems to suggest struggling at 720p and a fluctuating frame rate

For a game based as a system seller they need to get it right

Exactly the same for me...with the PS3 literally only being used for Blu Ray playback for the last year or so....
