better way to go imo. That way you know it's waiting for you to pick it up.

That said, as much as things can go wrong with a delivery, things can go wrong in store too. I chose to ship to my work since it's more convenient and reliable for me being at work every day, but there's a chance I might not get it on launch day.

for games FS/BB are very reliable to get your order to your door launch day morning.
not sure about consoles but if you aren't home I'm sure your mailman won't just leave a $400 item at your door so you lose out a day.

I think the demand for these will be strong on launch day so not sure if you can just walk in and buy one...FS/BB already stopped taking preorders.

bobola 06-13-2013 12:57 AM
and most likely there will be midnight launch.. !!

I'm gonna wait till the hype die down before I'll pick up a PS4, since there are really nothing worth playing at launch. I'm sure most of the titles that are worth playing won't be out for at least 6-8 months after launch.

people always say that but i never get my pre-orders on launch day always a day or two after -_-


As for the E3 Game Pre-Order sale is it just me or is there no discount for FFXV?

Not interested in either. So far only FF15, KH3 would be the titles that I would probably get a PS4 for. But still not enough for me to even get these titles on release date anymore.

The only games that I could think of that I would be willing to pick it up on the first day would be GTA and Gran Turismo, and both of these titles are still coming out for PS3.

PS3 launch was much different, not only it could play all my PS2 games, it was also the most affordable bluray player, all to go along with my first 1080P TV at the time.

I've got my PC to tide me over, I never buy new electronics on release.. bugs need to be fixed always.

dub.g 06-13-2013 04:43 PM

controller doesn't look comfortable.

Mr.Money 06-13-2013 11:45 PM
any bets on how much longer till we see a SLIM version?....or White Console?

StylinRed 06-14-2013 02:11 AM

i've been thinking the same, looks like they made it bigger because americans like the xbox controller (since it suits their fat hands)

winson604 06-14-2013 06:15 AM
I only hope that the analog is tighter. I typically play first and third person only and it's the main reason I played the 360 10 times more than my PS3.

underscore 06-14-2013 07:27 AM
^ I find the 360 worse if anything IMO. Have you played with controllers that are several years old, or do you have a brand new one around? My brother and I found that after several years of heavy FPS and GT5 abuse, the analog sticks start to wear out. His was seriously sloppy, I didn't think mine was too bad until I bought a new controller for multiplayer. Try going straight from a used controller to newer one, you'll likely feel the difference.

It's Sony, they'll find a way. But like you said, it'll take a few years.

I wonder if there will be smaller JDM controllers? Although the controller might just look big because the console is smaller than the package art makes it look?

.Renn.Sport 06-14-2013 08:26 AM
I've gone thru at least 4-5 xbox 360 controllers already. The left analog stick just keeps wearing out. But for Dual shock 3, I'm still using my original one, even all the PS3s I'm still using are the original 60GB with PS2 bc

yeah it depends on what type of game you play

like CoD that binds running into R3 I think the left analog wears out fast
or any QTE that requires you to spam the analog :suspicious:

Yes, Im currently using 2 controllers one of which is a stock one from 7 years ago and one from 3 years ago. Both are perfectly fine and going strong. I had another stock controller that broke a few years back but it was the RB button that got messed up.

The reason I preferer the Xbox controller is I play a lot of FPS and Third Person which requires some quick and presicion aiming. I find I can control it a lot better with the 360. The PS controllers analog is a lot loose so I find I'm way less presice with the aiming.

Reports from the floor is that both controllers are REALLY good, with some complaints for the XB1\s placement of the bumper buttons, and PS4's analog sticks feeling a bit loose.

Sony is talking about potential publisher DRM.. looking good so far! (if you believe in corporate speak ;) personally I still think it would be smarter to wait. Especially since the PS4 will only have like 3 exclusive games at launch)

Publishers bringing Xbox One-like limitations to PS4 would be 'surprising,' Sony exec says | Polygon

StylinRed 06-15-2013 02:45 AM
NCIX has the one and ps4 up for pre-order as well PlayStation 4 Sony Playstation

3 years is still a long time (depending on usage), mine is only about 3 1/2 years old now and like I said it feels totally fine until I pick up a nearly brand new controller and it feels just that bit tighter. Of course this is all a completely moot point now as the new consoles roll out, though personally I'll be holding off on the PS4 for a year at least after it goes on sale.
