That's cheating. I prefer the old fashioned way

I think that was already given a handicap when they stopped allowing you to take your savefiles with you. I took a copy of Smash Bros. Brawl to a friends place and every wanted to play as Sonic, but you have to unlock him......

Times like that you wish they still had memory cards

no you have to purchase another copy of the game if you want to play it at your friends

Yeah I know. I was saying that making you pay to play on another console just kills off something that was already shot in the leg

And now you can see why Nintendo have lasted so long in this business. It's all about the games, not watching movies or tv, which everyone has already been doing on their TVs and DVD players for the last 10-20 years.

Massive fail Microsoft. I was looking forward to seeing what they would do to outplay the PS4, but looks like they are now bottom of the rung. In 12 months time Nintendo and Playstation will be killing it while the Xbox One will be filling up shelves.

I think you underestimate the loyalty of 14 year old call of duty players...

I'm sure there'll be many a second hand Xbox one on shelves of EB and the like once people realise they overpaid for services that cannot be provided in Australia but were heavily advertised online.

Noticed that my playtv thingo had a software update when i got it cranking the other night. Being a curious (read skeptical) fellow, I had a look at what the update entailed...

chat tv
-facebook and PSN recommendations
-extended guide info ( not available in Australia )
-community favourites ( not available in Australia )
-series link ( UK only )

Hmm, so three out of five are not available for Australia.

I don't use ChatTV (and I think you actually have to buy it from the PSN)
Don't care about PSN recommendations. (spam)
Don't have facebook.

Um, so no fixes or anything useful then? I don't think I'll bother updating.

I laughed so hard at the dog.

+1... But seriously, they have nothing to show for the next generation in gaming.

For me it going to come to the actually price and games on release if im going to buy it or not on release day.... ill been a dedicated gamer since the beginning , so if a good game come along ill get one ....i know im going to get it at some point any ways... that and the ps4....but which one im going to get first depends on the game ! And at the moment if none of them yet..

Im actually waiting for the VR oculus to be fully develop !! i think that the next phase in gaming for the dedicated gamer ....better then the kinect for mainstream...
