If your boss comes over and tells you to get this extra work done before 5, work that only benefits your boss, you wouldn't be too thrilled about it either.



Honestly, going by everything we know and have heard about NEO, the only group of people I see this really affecting in a negative way is indie devs. Sure, most indie devs are going to opt to have their games be universal between both systems, outside of the mandatory resolution on the PS4K. However, it still means they have another build that they'll have to QA & debug. Going by the other standard being put in place here, where after some date in the fall, games won't be allowed to launch a PS4K compatibility patch (i'm sure unless its under special circumstances), this means that in order for the indie dev to launch their game on the PS4 environment, they'll have to have their PS4 & PS4K versions ready to go simultaneously. If you consider how many indie devs do staggered releases as is specifically due to lack of budget, this could be amount to a problem for a few of them.

Yoshida responds:

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually developers. Every human on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you developers do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every PS4 resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another PS4. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Developers are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.

Oh shit.

Well fuck me running. My Wii U pad seems to have an issue. I can't tell if it's the D pad or the left stick (probably the left stick), but something is slightly stuck. It doesn't affect too much in the way of gameplay in most games, but if I go to the eShop for instance the screen will just slowly scroll up on its own. Nintendo wants $110 to fix it.... yeah. Not gonna happen.

Oh man, that sucks. Having something happen to the Wii U pad is something that always concerns me, even just normal wear and tear.

Sounds like you need to steal one.

$110?! Damn...I sent them my gamepad when I first got the wii u, funny story...I thought something was wrong with it because it stopped charging, sent it to them, they "fixed it" for free.....got it back still wouldn't charge....I was about to go livid when I realized my cat had chewed on the slimsy flimsy little charge cable and it wasn't connecting anymore. So I bought a new charger and yep, works fine. LOL....but they told me they "fixed" it.

I have a similar problem with my xbox one master chief controller....I fucking dropped it the other night on my glass table and something inside broke off...I can hear it rattling around. It still works fine, but the broken piece keeps getting stuck in the trigger and preventing it from working once in awhile. Is there a way to open these up? Maybe I can get it out of there.

She'd sense its fetid stench approaching and start gagging the minute you entered the room. Then Vader would suddenly appear and scan them.

So the Xbox 360 has officially been discontinued after 11 years. 11 fucking YEARS. Man 2005 seems so long ago.

I remember clearly saying "why do they need to release this new xbox when my XBOX is getting games like Far Cry Instincts and Half Life 2? " Sure as hell didn't expect it to last 11 years back in 2005. Crazy.

I remember going to pick up my 360 cranking up my favorite death metal band's new album, Opeth's Ghost Reveries. Now in 2016, these guys don't even play death metal anymore. They're more like a wannabe 1970's classic rock band now. So much has changed in that time.

I remember that.

I'm going to try and call back today. Nintendo customer support has worked with me in the past. A year ago they quoted me around $90 to fix my 3DS and eventually they brought it down to like $30. Sometimes you just need to find someone who is willing to not go by the books. We will see. WHo knows though. I may become a PS4 owner much sooner than I anticipated.

+1 to the GUPodcast for bringing up constructive incorrectness in games.

And +1 to Aspro for getting a Surface, even if it is an RT.
