The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

[mr j 858]

I'm wondering if starting tomorrow the reviews will start going up for games like:

Killzone Shadow Fall
Knack
Need: For Speed Rivals
Resogun
Contrast

Reviews are already ot for BF4, COD: Ghosts, Fifa 14, ACIV, and NBA 2K14

I apologize in advance if this has already been mentioned here....

Alright, follow me here.  This is kinda confusing, but I'll try to explain it to the best of my abilities.

I preordered 3 games for the PS4.  I preordered NBA 2K14 from Best Buy a long time ago (this is irrelevant).  I preordered BF4 and KZ from Amazon about 3 weeks ago.  Friday I thought I'd cancel one of my preorders from Amazon because I thought two FPSs would be overkill for launch.  I canceled one of them. Today I receive the same email from Amazon that many of you received stating that because I preordered two games I qualified for a free preorder.  I went and preordered Knack.  It didn't dawn on me until just a bit ago (and I confirmed it by looking through my open orders) that I only had one preorder, not including the free Knack, through Amazon. This oversight (as it still is right now....items are listed as PREPARING FOR SHIPMENT and Knack still has a 0 dollar amount) on their part has created a de facto Buy 1 Get 1 Free.  

I'm not suggesting everyone try this, I'd hate for someone to miss out on something they truly want,  but it is interesting.  If you received the email and you are either content with your two games you preordered or you are less than enthused by any of the other offerings, it might be worth a shot to use the code to preorder one the games you already preordered and then cancel the original order.

I'm guessing my order will ship tomorrow.  I'm not really bothered if in the end I do get billed for the game I got for "free."  I'll keep you updated tomorrow (or whenever it may be) when my items are shipped.

Similar story. I preordered bf4 but cancelled it today to take advantage of the target deal. This afternoon I got an email from amazon with a promo code to buy one and get one free.

All of those reviews that they did already are for games that are on current gen. I doubt we'll get reviews on the next gen games until launch.

Edit: nvm, just realized they reviewed the current gen versions of those games. Hopefully they start the reviews for those games you mentioned in a couple of days.

Gamestop really just gave me $80 for my 20gb(launch) xbox 360 that had red ring. Was about to throw it away soon.

Just finished paying of the PS4. Have $100 on the XB1 but might cancel it and just spend it on black friday or parts for my car.

I just got back from gamestop. They gave me $140 for my 80gb and 2k14. Ive had it on craigslist for weeks, no one wanted it. 

Walked out with 2k and Killzone. Body is beyond ready for Friday.

Care to share more details on your cryptic post?

Did you have a hook up and managed to get one early ?

Do you actually have one physically in your possession and if so is it hooked up and are you playing with it already ?

Or did you just manage to get a pre order in and will get a PS4 on launch or sometime before Christmas ?

 

[andycrazn]

wow that buy 1 get one is amazing

Naughty Dog Co-Founder: “Two Years Ago Microsoft Was Going to Win this Generation. That’s Not The Case Now”

Naughty Dog Co-Founder and former Studio President Jason Rubin (he left the company in 2004) is quite confident in Sony’s possibilities to do well this generation, especially due to the internal change brought to the company by people like Mark Cerny, as he told while interviewed by Geoff Keighley on GameTrailers.

Having worked at Sony and having seen how Sony is, we have to give them an incredible amount of credit for this launch. Inside the industry, quietly, hush-hush, two years ago Microsoft was going to win this generation. And that’s not the case now.

They have been very very smart, very very adept at changing their policies to fit what gamers wanted, and they’ve created an incredible hardware.

The creator of that hardware, Mark Cerny, who I know extremely well, could have not done this in the PS3 era, because Ken Kutaragi was there and the entire company had a very different way of looking at things.

I actually know better than most people the history of internal hardware production at Sony, because I went through this with Mark from Crash watching how hardware has gone.

The change from the Kutaragi model to, i will call it, the Cerny model is far larger than anyone realizes. It is looking at the market and adapting to the market, rather than creating the ultimate graphics hardware from a technical standpoint and assuming the market will come.

I wonder how Crazy Ken Kutaragi is taking all of this criticism dude is being put on blast by Sony the company he use to work for, game devs both 1st & 3rd party, and the majority of the gaming press.
