I think we need to have a talk...

 

[bamez]

Oddworld was my **** on PSX. Definitely gonna enjoy replaying it.

 

[dgum]

Gonna be throwing controllers at the TV playing BB if you think TLOU is hard.

Nice. Finally I can cop LEGO Marvel for cheap

 

[thekid3456]

Or The Evil Within. I literally quit on that game. Is too difficult.

 

[datkidfiasco]

Im excited to play valiant hearts. it is supposed to be great

 

[swendro]

I wish I could take Helldivers with me back to the times when I played video games together with 4 people in a room.

 

[iheartboost]

Is it the stealth or the clickers making you mad? Strategy is real in that game. Guns a blazing methods don't usually work.

Clickers.

The stealth is no issue, I beat every MGS. I just gotta chill out and be more cautious, but my patients is getting pretty thin after 10 - 15 tries.

What difficulty?

 

[jayfiend]

Clickers creeped me out on TLOU.

 

[thehealthinspector]

upgrade those shivs

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

Clickers.

First 2 things you should upgrade are your health and shiv incase you get caught by a clicker you could stab your way out. Also always have a nail bomb and Molotov cocktails. Get nice with that now and arrow. Or you know just throw a brick/bottle in one direction and sneak by you dont have to kill them all.

Slowly replaying it myself. Easily top 3 game last gem. Up to the part with Will and jayden smith.

 

[KingParappa]

They remastered the music too...and it doesn't sounds as good. They went OD with the acoustics.

The remixed music sucks. The PS4 version has the original tracks back in it that you can switch to.

Yep trading in my ps3 version just cause of this

[h1]SONY'S PLAYSTATION 4 SELLS OVER 20.2 MILLION UNITS WORLDWIDE[/h1]

BY CASSIDEE MOSER

As of March 1, Sony reports that its current-gen console the PlayStation 4 has sold over 20.2 million units globally.

With these metrics, the manufacturer reports the PS4 is continuing its legacy as the "fastest and strongest growth in PlayStation hardware history." It is currently available in over 123 countries worldwide.

Originally launching in November 2013, the PlayStation 4 was last reported in January 2015 to have sold 18.5 million units worldwide, with 6.4 million of those being sold in its third financial quarter.

A number of PlayStation 4 exclusives are scheduled to arrive in 2015, including Bloodborne, the already-released The Order: 1886, and Tearaway Unfolded.

[h1]PROJECT MORPHEUS RELEASE WINDOW, SPECS REVEALED[/h1]
Project Morpheus is coming next year.

BY LUCY O'BRIEN

At GDC today, Sony announced that its Project Morpheus VR headset will be available to consumers in the first half of 2016.

President of Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida also revealed a new prototype that will be closer to the final version than the one we've seen previously. This new prototype has an OLED display running at 1920 x RGB x 1080, which removes motion blur, and all pixels now have RGB sub-pixels.

Project Morpheus has a 120 hz refresh rate, double that of the previous version, and a low latency of less than 18 milliseconds. The new prototype has a 5.7 inch screen offering a 100 degree field of vision, and includes 9 tracking LEDS; 3 more than the previous version.

The new Project Morpheus has also been designed to be more comfortable, with a single band to relieve pressure on the face and a quick release button.

“Increased consumer exposure to VR” and “passionate feedback from good VR experiences” have lead to the current prototype, according to Yoshida.

"We are one step closer to realizing our vision of making virtual reality a reality in games".

Keep an eye on the site as more info drops on Project Morpheus at GDC

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

Any guesses on how much morpheus will cost?


I'll say $199.99

 

[pip777]

I believe it will be around the $350 - $399 range. If they are able to sell it for $199, then they must have crazy profit money to spare. The PS4 is still selling like hotcakes at the full $399, even with free games and sometimes PS+ cards bundled with it. Plus Morpheus is new technology/platform so they got to maximize the profit earning potential, especially when it comes to new electronic products.

Best case scenario, if the PS4's price has dropped by then, would be: $399 for Morpheus standalone, $499 - $599 Morpheus + PS4 bundle

 

[swendro]

No way will it be that much just for Morpheus. You still need a camera and probably move controllers.

$399 and it's dead in the water.

Totally forgot about the need for the camera and move controllers.

RIP to the eyesights of those that are buying Morpheus.
