Andrew Eisen: Well, I was right. Both Sony and Microsoft's consoles will be out by the year's end and both will be significantly more powerful than the current gen.05/21/2013 - 5:06pm

Zen: Just to let ya know...you called it the "Xbox 260" in the backwards compatibility article lol.05/21/2013 - 4:26pm
|
Zen: @PHX Awesome, I will hit those up after class tonight. Going back to college finally! :) My kids have had a blast telling ME to do my homework now lol.05/21/2013 - 4:19pm

PHX Corp: @Zen I sent you a friend request on both PSN and XBL, just a heads up05/21/2013 - 4:16pm
|
Zen: I noticed it with the football players when EA showed off Madden as well.05/21/2013 - 4:11pm
|
Zen: Is it just me or is call of duty hitting the "uncanny valley" with their nicely modeled faces and dead looking eyes? I found it distracting and seemed actually "less" real to me lol.05/21/2013 - 4:10pm

james_fudge: it sounds like if you have an HD reciever you'll be able to use it with a pass-through cable... not 100 percent sure yet05/21/2013 - 2:41pm

james_fudge: happening now http://majornelson.com/2013/05/21/xbox-one-architecture-panel/05/21/2013 - 2:20pm
|
E. Zachary Knight: Some reading material for Microsoft on its used games blocks. That will hurt the console more than helping. http://ezknight.net/?page_id=20505/21/2013 - 2:18pm
|
james_fudge: yeah good luck with over the air TV05/21/2013 - 2:12pm
|
E. Zachary Knight: But what if I want to only watch over the air tv? I don't subscribe to pay tv. I never will. If that is a requirement, then MS wasted 45 minutes telling me how great TV will be.05/21/2013 - 2:08pm
|
james_fudge: EZK it will depend on your provider, just like HBO Go i'd imagine.05/21/2013 - 2:05pm
|
PHX Corp: @IanC there's also a chance that those titles might be Xbox one exclusive, but it's too early to tell afaik05/21/2013 - 2:03pm
|
IanC: @E. Zachary Knight - MS certainly got the checkbook out for EA, so no surprise on how negative they are over the Wii U.05/21/2013 - 1:54pm
|
MaskedPixelante: So now I have to wonder, how many of EA's games are skipping the PS4 because of their pro-used stance?05/21/2013 - 1:53pm
|
E. Zachary Knight: On the TV front, does the XBox One require a cable/satellite subscription or will I be able to use my over the air channels?05/21/2013 - 1:48pm
|
E. Zachary Knight: Also, that name was not one of the options on our poll.05/21/2013 - 1:42pm
|
E. Zachary Knight: This presentation also shows why EA has been so negative about the Wii U. They have had a massive hardon for the XBox One forever.05/21/2013 - 1:42pm

james_fudge: two female presenters05/21/2013 - 1:40pm

Re: ESRB Holiday Card
Aprrently, some atheists and non-Chirstian groups are offended by the world "Chirstmas" because it has the word "Chirst" in it. I guess it is some type of strawman to piss people off and cause a flame war.

Re: ESRB Holiday Card
Yeah, I understand that, but for the sake of the kids, they can just get their heads out of their asses and get over it. This isn't the season to be an asshole, it is the season to come together with family and friends.

Also for the Aussie Gamers who don't have snow, perhaps the OFLC should make a Christmas card with a hot sunny day at the Beach and Santa in his swimming clothes delivering PlayStation 2, 3 & PSPs, XBox360s and Nintendo Wii's and DS's.
And hopefully in the next two years there could be an R18+ rating for Videogames if all goes well.

Re: ESRB Holiday Card
Re: ESRB Holiday Card
i dunno with all the religious descrimination during this season should the holidays be rated "E"?
more like "T" or something perhaps... :p
j/k not a fan of the holidays, but doesn't mean others aren't, so have fun all!
the age of the gamer is beginning and '08 was merely the start :)
Re: ESRB Holiday Card
Makes me wonder what a 'T' or 'M' version might look like... ;P

Have yourself a merry little politcally correct holidays, huh?

Re: ESRB Holiday Card
political correctness is in itself politically incorrect.
its actually more polite to call someone a retard (Slow) that it is to call the mentaly ill (messed up)

Re: ESRB Holiday Card
I've never actually heard of anyone who objects to the word Christmas, methinks it's just a giant strawman.
Although if such a person did exist you get to ignore them.
As we all know people can get offended by anything.
