I Think Resogun will be free for PS+. So if you want that game anyway, now may be a good time to start your PS+ subscription.

I will probably eventually get a PS4. I....am not financially able to purchase so freely, right now. I know it will have exclusives that I may want and I also want to play BF4 with the Blu-ray.com people. Playing BC2 with them was an absolute blast. Unfortunately, I sat out for BF3 on consoles, because it wasn't very good. BF3 in general, was kind of a step back. But the consoles versions controlled horribly and were severely gimped in player counts for multiplayer.

It is incredibly stupid how the console companies are going for such a locked down/locked in experience. In the end, I think it will hurt them a bit with PR and eventually they will have to relax things a bit. I think some board members are just crossing their fingers that some how magically consumers will just take it up the ass.

I do also have a solid gaming PC that is a bit more powerful than a PS4. So I will be gaming on that side, as well. and it is shaping up to be one of the most interesting times in recent memory, to be a PC gamer.



But, all total, my gaming habits have severely waned in the past three years. I pretty much only really care about the next Souls game, Battlefield, the next Metal Gear, and the occasional Rally game. Aside from that, I pretty much just have occasional one-off experiences with games that for whatever reason, catch my interest. But it's not like when I was younger, where I played a lot of games, all the time. I go weeks now, barely playing anything.

Yeah there are some more strange omissions coming to light, particularly from Sony:

no 3d blu-ray support or 3D gamin support

the PS4 appears to once again have wierdly incomplete sound optons. the PS3 was like this, until a later hardware revision allowed a complete set of sound options.


I can't believe that SONY hasn't tested 3d blu-rays and gaming to death on the PS4, especially considering how mature it ended up on the PS3. I wonder if they are holding out through the holiday season, hoping people will buy separate blu-ray players, etc. then come spring time, magical firmware that brings all these features...

Here's a quick taste of Resogun, from Eurogamer:





*this game is free with PS+ for presumably the next couple of months.

Sony has now folded under backlash pressure (RE: DLNA, MP3, possibly other things). Looks like their corprorate finger crossing didn't work. On top of that, they are playing the innocent/ignorant/naive card:

Digital Foundry says Dead Rising 3 averages about 20 frames per second...


*hopefully they will iimprove the framerate through patches. Because the game was totally rushed. It was only like three months ago that preview builds were slogging at 10 - 15fps.
