    Playstation 4 to cost $430!?

    I think going digital is a must. This will kill the need to worry about backwards compatibility. XBL and PS could replicate what Steam does so you keep your games on that network throughout the rest of the generations. The costs of packaging and producing discs would save millions in production costs. This could also pave way from something new. Cross console gaming. We saw that it could be done between PS3 and Steam when Portal 2 came out. It def could be done with other games. It would be a very limited amount of games that wouldn't have hardware conflicts between how the game is played. If MS Illumiroom gives xbox players a better advantage or the touch screen on PS4's controller does, then it wouldn't be worth making the game crossplatform. Maybe bring the console wars to a new level? Have just specific events, like a Team Xbox vs. Team PS weekend in COD. Instead of DLC timed exclusives being decided by corporate dollars, let it be decided by the gaming community. Which ever side wins the event gets the DLC early release.

    Back in the day science in comics was kinda: ''make it up if it sounds like it could make sense'' If it actually weighed that, it would probably fall to the centre of the planet if he ever put it down ;p

    Playstation 4 to cost $430!?

    My 2 cents on the next gen of consoles I bet the next gen will really push for digital purchasing over there network, with current home BB being faster then ever, a new console launch could be the catalyst needed to shift the market, to make this the norm, With cloud becoming more reliable, more and more data canbe held on a server with lil to no lag Ps2 gave birth to DvD, Ps3 gave us BluRay, XB360 made multi player a more important factor in gaming All these features existed before the consoles, but the consoles have a very strong influence I hope next gen has backward compatibility The price seems decent however, would make sense as Bluray RnD would have been under ps3's overheads, extra ram, and processors are not that expensive compared to the development of new tech

    You'll never see a free xbox live that allows players to play multilayer for free, and honestly rightfully so. The difference between playing online on PS3 and on Xbox 360 is night and day. I use to scoff at paying for an online service when I only had a PS3, but the service offered by XBL is vastly superior. You get what you pay for. XBL has paved the way for quality online gaming from its private chat/party chat system to its online store that offered free demo's for games years before PS Plus ever came out. Cheating is less prevalent, and those reported and caught are either banned for life, or their gamertag is branded as a cheater for the rest of their days. While paying $10 for an online pass sounds like a good idea, for people that buy 20 games a year, its not very practical when you could pay $60 a year rather than $200. XBL has made a pretty effective tiered payment program where you can pay yearly, every 6 months, tri-monthly, or monthly. Paying monthly costs as much as netflix instant stream but you end up paying $30 more a year that way. The online pass was created to recoup money off used game sales, which by all indications, seems to be coming to an end this generation. Both Sony and MS seem to be coming up with some way to prevent consoles from playing used games. I have no idea how this will work, but if my theories on how they will accomplish this are accurate, I do not like it. I personally don't buy used games anymore because its just a rip off. $5-10 off for a used copy isn't for me. I'm just wondering if it will hurt redbox's game rental abilities.

    I think PS Home 2 would not only have to have a major graphics & avatar improvements but a way to use PS Home Avatars in other games. I still think its a major disappointment that my PS Home Avatar dressed as a Ghost Buster Can't appear driving in The Ambulance Shown in the new Twisted Metal on the PS3. Or even as an option in Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. Had they done that there be more reason to buy (Sony Exclusive) games & be on PS Home.

    In the case that PS4 has PS Home 2 it ultimately confirms the fact that I shouldn't have spent thousands on PSN. However since Sony is trying to transfer all PS Home save data from the PS3s to PSN, PS Home 2 isn't planned anytime soon. In full honesty I bought my PS3 mainly as a Blu-Ray Player. However it eventually replaced my Wii which I had first at the time. About 2 years later I stopped watching Blu-Ray Movies because Sony created Video Unlimited. Then about half a year later I felt justified in selling the majority of games I owned once PS Plus started to get *free games. In the case however that Sony starts to charge for online like Microsoft I honestly welcome it. One of the major problems of home have been the trolls who refuse to pay for anything. They're just there for free rewards & if they find out anything cost (too much) money it is ultimately a scam to them. Or in the case of items such as a $15 Gold Suit "Class Warfare". A bogus claim since the PS3 costs hundreds more. Even when a company like Granzella gives a free option to play their Home Games rather than be thankful that they can play they still consider the paid for items a scam. On the other hand the One time fee access & what not I guess I could agree with Jim Sterling on that matter. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/jimquisition/6755-Breaking-the-Bones-of-Business Okay that rant is long enough but hopefully it summed up my thoughts. *Free as in when the games come available for purchase for free. Once you miss out on that you would have to buy them if you really want them. However they're not technically free since you need to stay subscribed to PS Plus to play them. Still $50 a year vs the hundreds all of these games would have cost together is a decent bargain.

    The Walking Dead Season 3

    personally i would head to the coast preferable for a very large yacht or small cruise ship, zombies cant swim and plenty of fish to eat, also sea air should increase decomposition of the walkers making them slower and go into a dessicated state sooner season 2 was a chore to watch, great drama, and suspense, but didnt feel like a zombie show Season 1 was truly awesome, it felt like the world had ended, seeing LA deserted and 1000's of walkers was crazy for a TV show s3, again feels more localised like s2, which makes set from a filming stand point, but way better then s2,

    It was tripping me out because they drive on the opposite side of the road, so every time a car would come around the curve I thought he was about to get hit.

    Superman Unbound

    You mean "Superman/Batman: Apocalypse" That is the best movie DC comics has made. I loved the ending.. just when you thought the movie was over you get the most epic fight ever.

    Battlestar Galactica Blood and Chrome

    Yeah, I watched the webisodes, DAMN GOOD stuff. Shows like this need to still be on air or need to get picked by the network. Stupid networks.
