I found the demo to be amazing. Really enjoyed it. And hopefully when the game arrives, I'll enjoy that too
I know I'm not going to get a story like Heavy Rain that's going to grip me for every second, and I never expected to. HR hit every note perfectly and played my heartstrings like a true maestro. But if I even get 20% of the same experience and grippingness, it'll be money well spent.
@rastamadeus It's not naive. What's naive is to try and lecture on other's opinions whilst you have no idea what the difference between games like Watch Dogs, Destiny or Assassin's Creed IV between generations will be. It'd be a fair assessment to assume that the footage we've seen so far for these titles has, in fact, all been next-gen but nobody knows which 'gen' has been the main focus for each dev team. Some games could see a significant step down graphically from what we've seen so far, but that's purely speculating. As for InFamous: Second Son adding nothing to the original, you have no idea if that's the case. We're yet to see any real footage of the game and anything other than a long teaser trailer. To me it looks like a refreshed narrative and some distinct art changes as well; a brighter, more vibrant world all with a new protagonist. But, you know, it's basically the same as Infamous 2...
What makes this even worse is that SPOILER ALERT in the show it is revealed that Daryl's father used to savagely beat him. Why would you go trotting into the woods with guns with an old coot that beat you and whipped you?

I'm enjoying just looking at the stills. Can't wait for this.

This game is pure racism against the Blue Man Group.

The King approves.
Re: Talking Point: Are Cross-Generation Releases Affecting Your Enthusiasm for the PS4?
@3Above @rastamadeus Hit the nail firmly on the head there pal. The fact that 3rd party devs are already supporting PS4 speaks leaps and bounds.

@rastamadeus You can't call someone's opinion naive and then say Knack is the only intriguing game on PS4...
Re: Talking Point: Are Cross-Generation Releases Affecting Your Enthusiasm for the PS4?
Strengthening my enthusiasm! I'm going to buy a PS4, that is a fact so why wait if great games are coming out this Christmas?

Poor Ben, kudos for playing it until the end!
Re: Review: Aliens: Colonial Marines (PlayStation 3)
Also, readers should note that the finished game looks NOTHING like the included 'trailer' published by Gearbox.
Re: Review: Aliens: Colonial Marines (PlayStation 3)
My eyes hurt just watching someone play this game.
Re: Review: The Walking Dead: A Telltale Games Series (PlayStation 3)
Loved the game. Was amazing to play it episodically. Roll on Season 2!
Oh and great review, Ben!
