Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 113

@AyeHaley Yes, it does get better. The ship graveyard is actually one of my least favorite chapters in any Uncharted. There are some big set pieces after including a plane and a horse caravan that are thrilling. There are also quieter moments of exploration and character development. UC3 is a phenomenal game IMO. But be prepared for a difficult final few chapters. Not as bad as UC2 but tough. It builds to a great climax.

Re: Review: Ratchet & Clank (PS4)

I am a newcomer to the franchise. I pre-ordered this game after reading the review and I cannot wait to play it tomorrow. It is nice to have some lighter entertainment amidst of all darkness and apocalyptic settings that populate so many modern games.

Re: Rumour: PS4K Will Cost $399, Will Feature 4K Blu-ray, and Will Boast Better Graphics

I can't find myself being excited about getting a half-step system. I don't want to buy a 4K TV either when there is so little available streaming/cable in the format let alone in the Blu-ray market. This system is rumored to be a lot more powerful than the PS4, but I would rather wait for PS5. The thing that will bother me is if a large swath of developers start optimizing games for the PS4K that struggle to run well on the standard PS4. It is always good to future proof with technology (PS3 with Blu-ray drive over XBOX 360 with DVD drive), but jumping too soon is a sure way to lose money when the demand is not necessarily there yet.

Re: Base PlayStation VR Pre-Orders Coming to US Soon

Bluetrain7

That was a poorly put together post on the blog by Sony. All they had to do was swap one sentence and say "base model preorders coming soon" to reflect what it says on the official site. Messaging is so important in launching new tech. The Xbox One/PS4 E3 launch clearly proved that point.

Re: PlayStation VR's US Pre-Order Bundle Costs More Than $399

@get2sammyb It's just an unbelievably dishonest move. It's available as a core set everywhere else that it's being sold but not in the US. I am really dumbfounded especially after Shuhei acknowledged that many fans already have the contollers and camera. So frustrating that I am sure it will turn many longtime players off from preorder.
