It's really strange how this podcast has defended a game like Ryse when it's the definition of graphics over gameplay. You claimed reviewers were harsh becuase the Metacritc was too low, yet Ryse did have a dumb "Simon Says" combat system with colors on the screen that you have to match on the...

Anthony, just like going from Forza Horizon 2 or Driveclub at 30FPS to Forza 5/6 and likely the next Gran Turismo all requiring double that framerate with 1080p/60, graphics can be adjusted accordingly. You don't need the highest level of graphics for it to succeed or be an enjoyable experience...

Remind me never to do a podcast, I don't know if I could take the feedback. I wasn't going to post, but reading some ridiculous stuff here, Wombat, Cheapy, Ship are awesome and I thought it was a great episode. Really enjoyed all discussions, and it was entertaining and interesting as always.

The guy who sent Wombat the PS4 as a thank you specifically asked him to keep it, and I'm sure this is the last thing he wanted to happen. If it helps, I sent a Wii U to Wombat and got a return to sender.

Destiny is coming out pretty early (September 9th), giving it a nice buffer before the other big fall releases. A Halo is supposed to be coming this year, but which one? Halo 2 Anniversary if that title exists, or Halo 5 which doesn't seem likely but what a killer title for the X1 to have so...

Not to kick a man when he's down, but PS4 just got Chess and Backgammon this week and they're not on the bone. While Shipwreck is holding up the fort, I hope you two sickos feel better.

Wombat living the good life! Jamaica trip and a new console to come home to. Big props to the guy who gifted that and hope your wife is well. In sales news, Infamous is doing well right now in the UK. Number 1 game on the charts.  :) http://www.chart-track.co.uk/?i=1833&s=1111

Wasn't that not a country that said Tearaway had more pre-orders, but simply ShopTo.net's list of top pre-orders which is as worthless as any other top seller list on a single store website? This is Sony saying this about InFamous, which should be a more general statement on all retailers. You...

Thanks for podcast, enjoyed it. I already have Super League Pinball, but wouldn't mind a different skin if that's an option. Didn't know they had skins when I bought it. EDIT: Looking it up, I guess these skins are separate and complete copies of the game? I don't need to take someones chance...

Interesting. I don't understand why that article clearly stated almost half of all PS4 owners actively bought Killzone if that was about copies stores bought, along with them providing that almost 50% attach rate claim. Thanks for the correction, Shipwreck.

Thanks for another podcast. What the new Infamous has going for it I think is it's marketing potential. To me a huge improvement comes from dropping vanilla Cole and the grungy cities he used to explore. They've created a striking character in an iconic American city which should help relate the...

EDIT: nevermind, it doesn't matter. I'll just part ways here.

Oh I know. Sucks hearing the Bombcast talk about TLoU again and feeling like I missed out when graphics really aren't the important thing that game has going for it. I'm renting Assassin's Creed 4 now and the game engine is a bit dated, but just seeing the ships and jungle levels at 1080p are...

Could depend on your level of graphics whore. :) Game is certainly enjoyable for many as is, but I actually stopped playing Last of Us and GTA5 and sent them back to GameFly early on with the plan to get back to them again on new consoles. I admit, I'm taking a big gamble with the Last of Us as...

Coming from a PC makes the Last of Us sometimes hard to look at, and sadly the next generation a little less impressive in general.

Really? You couldn't play anything on your PS4 for a day and a half? How were you sharing pics of yourself playing Killzone along with those Twitch streams from the PS4 on launch day? :p This sudden focus on PSN login issues for launch day seems kinda silly when the whole podcast discussion was...

Yeah, Shipwreck was quick to say the PS4 is just as bad, but by the very nature of having to tell the Xbox One what your TV equipment is I assume it's more setup time. I certainly didn't spend even a half hour setting up my PS4 (wasn't it like 5-10mins??? I forget), so I just don't know anymore...

Is it worth getting worked up over a phony graph Sony didn't make for not truthfully presenting sales data to follow it with a defense of Major Nelson or claim that MS PR isn't spinning numbers? Both just seem to be consciously skewing the public perception. Agree, though, the good news is...

I didn't want to start a console war. :oops: Was just saying PS4 switches apps for going from Netflix to the thick of a sea battle in AC4 instantly. It takes literally like one second to swap tasks and is pretty cool about both these new consoles.
