Anytime dude! Yeah the prices people are asking on Ebay are a lot better, but no ones buying anything, I looked hard and a lot of stuff is just sitting there. This place buys everything it has listed on the site and if you ask them about stuff they don't have listred they will check it out, I'm sure someone there is selling a lot of stuff on Ebay and Half and a few other places but I can't and won't so good if they make money, that means I can sell them more stuff no one else takes, not Gamestop or Best buy or Amazon.

I think I've finally had enough Assassins Creed. With a new generation in full swing and a bunch of promising games, seems like a good time to retire the series for a long time, if not forever.

i so agree we need new ip and we need it now!  Titanffall looks great, but I'm still buying a PS4 the fact thats online only kind of sucks because Titanfall could have been an Epic single player game and worthy of a ten score with A 10 or 15 hour  single player.

I really want GZ, but will probably will wait until spring break so I can start the first two hours of my break finishing a game.

I got to see the review for Infamous which is embargoed till tomorrow at 7am. MCShae gave it an 8, says it has great combat, excellent boss battles, great side missions and its beautiful. So i asked my friend about how reviews at GS works, the reviewer writes everything and picks the score. Then the editors read over everything and make sure the review and the score match, if not they would tell him this review reads like a 6 not a 7 for example, and they work it out from there.

I got to see the new Gamespot front page that he lead the design on. It looks sweet, it will be well organized with all sorts of info on the sides. There will be a calendar of when the next major updates or reviews will be coming up. He is working on forums and community stuff next. I got to see the program they use to update the site, cool stuff.

He is constantly getting free stuff from companies. His xbox one came from MS. He just heard Oculus is sending him a free dev kit 2. He will be getting inFamous copies (oh which he said he would send me one, yay!) So yeah this industry is filled with gift giving.

Nice. Should have leaked the review, though...

Ubi Soft and Bandai/Namco announce Dark Souls 2 / Puppyz DLC!

Bummer still not one game I really want on this thing. Xbox 1 has two with Titanfall and Forza. But at least I can get Titanfall on my PC aww crap I'm not buying anything yet.

A good post I read on GAF:

~~The expectation of "next gen gameplay" will lead to lower review scores (hurray!)

I get the feeling that regardless of better graphics, more social interaction, and just more capable hardware in general, new gen review scores will be a notch or two lower than your average from last gen.

Why? Reviewers who are anxiously awaiting that "next gen gameplay." I've seen the sentiment expressed in reviews with Killzone Shadowfall, Dead Rising 3, and now Infamous SS, and even Titanfall.

So I wonder, what are they anticipating? Something as monumental as the 3D camera? Near perfect AI? Everything being a social experience? (I hope not). I don't think the reviewers themselves have any idea.

And chances are it won't happen. I think we will see a lot of derivative gameplay with better graphics and maybe more NPCs filling our worlds. Maybe more MMO style games.

I know a lot of people are beating the drum for Occulus Rift and Morpheus to change the landscape, but imo these devices only apply to certain genre's and they are (probably) expensive add-ons to our current devices that not everyone will own, making their impact on this gen limited, if there is an impact at all.

Will we come to the realization that "next gen gameplay" isn't a thing and isn't coming and perhaps was an odd construct games journalists invented on their way to trying to sound profound while writing a review? Will review scores jump back to their usual averages if nothing monumental emerges from the new gen? I hope not. Games should be hammered for being too derivative.

Some big publishers will probably start wondering "why does being derivative bother you all of a sudden?"

Thoughts?
