Tbf I have never seen Destiny being played and had no idea what it looked like before watching that (and Halo was a close enough guess).

Odd question but a friend of mine is sharing an office building with a game studio that recently closed in Austin and they left a bunch of PS4 devkits. Anything that can be done with those? Seems they are not activated cause all the content on them is locked.

I'm sure someone at the assemblers forums would be glad to buy them from your friend, at a high price.

they don't seem to play retail games, but it's kinda hard to tell cause without being activated with a dev account they don't seem to do anything at all. however i did find someone to buy one of them right away. i guess they are useful for people who do mock reviews :doge

You can possibly make a developer account. I'd have to look at the PS4 developer kits to see if they plug into a PC (which is possible, because developer kit of course) to phone-home, etc.

But yeah, AssmeblerGames would probably buy the whole lot. I'd be interested if price was right (read: cheaper than a PS4) just to dick around with it/novelty, but yeah.

I'm thinking PlayStation 'something' announcement early 2019. To get ahead of Microsoft or try and take on the Switch.
Maybe a combination of both.

Microsoft still has some mileage left in the Xbox One X. So that'll be 2020/2021 or so.

Storage capacity so I can have more than a single copy of RDR2 installed. Even 2tb is seemingly small with these bloated as fuck games.

I bought a 5tb hd last year for only like $120 and that shit changed my world. installed all my disc games and downloaded every ps plus game I had and now I can swap between them with no worries. so much easier than saying a whole fucking day to reinstall a game I'll play for all of a week.

Yup, same old hype.  Same old expected reviews.  Canceled my pre-order after realizing how dumb it would be to drop $100 for the gold edition or whatever it is.  The price will drop quickly enough.

spending 100$ on another copy pasta AC game seems like a fruitless endevour to me.

Almost as fruitless as spending 100$ on the RDR2 collectors edition which doesnt even come with the game

This is basically the opposite for me (Origins' setting vs Odyssey)

Did anyone ever figure out why ac odyssey runs so trash on pc?

The cpu usage just doesn’t seem to make sense, since a mid range pc from 2012 pretty much shits on a console cpu from an incredible height.

Horrible optimization, DENUVO + added DRM in the form of VM I believe.

Same. Ancient Egypt is a personal favorite of mine when it comes to historical settings, while I like greek stuff and everybody does the setting and it's elements and motifs are far more prevalent so it takes more than it for me to care.

Still haven't played Origins, but it'll be bargain bin soon cause it's AC. Thinking of picking it up this december with DQ11 since there won't be much if any I'm interested in that month and I'll have done everything I want in RDR2 by then.

It's really good, a lot of content though so save it for a gaming desert if you can. (Apparently Odyssey has even way more content too with DLC next year coming as well lol)

I’m deep in the local game collector scene and dudes like the last gamers are quite common. Multi millionaires with the most embarrassing shit taste in games with unlimited funds.

They basically just mass buy stuff on ebay they see in ‘best games for...’ vids, put pics of their huge fuckoff hauls every week on the fb groups but they have no actual knowledge of the games they  bought. They dont play them, they only keep them as background props for yt vids.

This one moron has like 25 pcbs of the same rare fighting game alo stacked up in his basement in various states of working or despair, but he’s such a clown ass that he doesnt know or care to fix them. He just buy every copy he can find on ebay, for bragging rights.  He’s not trying to create artificial scarcity, he’s already worth 50+ Mils.. he just wants to brag about them.

He’s also unbelievably terrible at the game, he gets destroyed at every tournament.

But.. They all fucking love those godawful animu pedo bait vita games and indie dev garbage.

I was on PStore earlier and saw NBA Live 19 was 23$ already?  :whatsthedeal

I was going to give 2k19 a shot this year as haven't checked in a few years but (since I liked what I played from Live 18 for most part) am pretty tempted. this seems like a pretty cheap roster update before the season even kicks off.  :thinking

I’d be pissed if I paid full price last month for L19 but to be real I imagine that’s a pretty low number.

Most of the additional features and content that were present in the Substance and Subsistence editions of the games have been ported to the HD Editions as well.[3] These include the VR/Alternative Missions, Snake Tales and Casting Theater modes for Metal Gear Solid 2, plus the third-person camera view and Demo Theater for Metal Gear Solid 3. The MSX2 versions of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake are also included, accessible from the main menu in Metal Gear Solid 3, with all the changes and additions made in the Subsistence versions.

I think it was originally released with 720p? content so it wasn't very "future proof" visually. This remaster they re-rendered everything in 4k, including cutscenes. I think it also properly supports 5.1 audio now as well.
