Should you find yourself in London on the weekend of the fourteenth, you are of course welcome to join us at Londonxmastock. Based on past experiences of meeting forumites, I feel quite sure that the inevitable disappointment that I'd feel upon meeting you and discovering you're nothing like the person I'd pictured in my head all these years would quickly give way to finding a great deal of pleasure in your company. -

I'm now picturing Brooks as Tyrion Lannister. It works.

No, she's black....
In other news, don't go in the bone/ps4 threads if your resolve to stay 'out' isn't 100%! Temptations...."Like i said, context is missing."

Stuck in the middle Wii U... -

This version. Our overlord's there, too. -
I'm (sort of) ashamed to admit that I almost bought an Xbox One yesterday. Luckily I realised how silly it'd be, what with me only being interested in Forza 5, plus I'd like to be able to afford Christmassy things.
Also, I've got Gran Turismo 6 in a fortnight. -
I'm very tempted, but not for the games, just to play around with Kinect, which friends have said is really good. But £430 to play with settings? Not yet. Gonna get back to Zelda action. -
I said today I really wish I had one. Then my friend pointed out there's literally nothing on the launch line up I want to play. Still...

Haven't you bought that Wii U yet?
-
Reading those reviews in the Mario thread you're gonna regret it
-
Noooo don't rub it in
If it were up to me I'd be Mario-ing it right now! -
I'm gonna have to buy a vita and/or a wii u to make buying either of the other two impossible.
Or I could get tix to a fetish club for new years.
Hmmm."Better than a tech demo. But mostly a tech demo for now. Exactly what we expected, crashes less and less. No multiplayer."

Well that was surprisingly easy. Haven't felt the urge to go out and buy either one of the next gen consoles this week, and the building momentum the WiiU was getting seems to have dissipated.
Reading about the various problems all three consoles have had at launch makes me wonder if I'll ever buy a console at launch again. These things are getting way too complicated to expect what I want from a console on day one; plug the thing in and play a game within seconds.
It seems they're moving closer towards gaming PCs, and not in a good way.
I'll probably end up with all three of them at one time or another, possibly all three at the same time but to be honest, the subscriptions will make that unlikely. Good luck to everyone who has made the leap though, hope they get what they want. -
The gaming PCs thing is one of my issues too Sparky.
I really dont want to fuck around with crashes, bricking, updates and the lark.
I want to pick up a game in Woolworths, rush home, tearing off the wrapping, nearly trip over rushing to get the game in the console, instantly load up and play. Stopping only for a poop where I will read the manual.
Eventually I think I just wont be that bothered at all. I already have a pile of shame yet it's Friday, empty flat and Im watching Hollyoaks not playing games.
I have never been so utterly un interested in a games console as these new 2. -
It feels like both of them are way off schedule. Xbox One is madly overpriced, but seems aimed at casuals. The PS4 looks nice and is a reasonable price, but none of the next gen games are ready. MS getting that head start last time round might be having too much of an influence.Liveinadive wrote:I have never been so utterly un interested in a games console as these new 2. -
It feels like they spent 2 years fucking around with kinect 1 and Move rather than getting these out.
-
The inflated AAA budget probably makes it look a bit flat as well. The only way any of the launch exclusives will make money is a direct payment from MS or Sony.
-
It doesnt gelp that the games are just iterations of what we have. BF4, Forza 5, Fifa 1 billion. Even Nintendo with NSMB again and a Zelda rehash.
I have been there, done it, got the pre order XXXL t shirt (only ever xxxl in stock).
-
Oh yeah, vita bought, fetish club tix bought, fetish hotel booked too.
And little printer is 150quid.
I'm gonna have to cut me bank card up and hide me house deeds be I have to remortgage."Better than a tech demo. But mostly a tech demo for now. Exactly what we expected, crashes less and less. No multiplayer."

I havent followed a single thing you have said this evening Beano.

Don't worry it can be forgotten, I'm off circuit bending."Better than a tech demo. But mostly a tech demo for now. Exactly what we expected, crashes less and less. No multiplayer."

The jon snow and charlie cooker thing wasn;t sexy, it was actually fucking abysmal.
Lost a lot of stock; both of them."Better than a tech demo. But mostly a tech demo for now. Exactly what we expected, crashes less and less. No multiplayer."

Cant be worse the Channel 4's feature tonight on how "House music is back", "no it's not the 80s these young people are 'shuffling' to 'house music'"
I felt sick and turned over. -

I could see myself buying a 3DS or Vita before anything else atm. There's even a chance this time I'll not bother at all with another console. Just a chance mind.
I'm still interested in the whole thing, but there are so few games I actually enjoy nowadays. -
Ok the rational part of me knows there is little of value on the new consoles.
But the gamer side of me wants to buy both purely to see what they can do.
I'm guessing most of you who haven't got a next gen console feel the same. -
I'd quite like to see what they're like I suppose. Just how shit works. There are no games for them I'd get under normal circumstances though, and I'm not even slightly thinking of buying one.
Howdy, Stranger!
