Granted there are similarities, but the difference is still quite large. First and foremost being I am guessing you don't put on your own home made mage robe to play Skyrim.
Also, stop taking the fun out of busting Mountie's balls over this losing his wood tale he shared.

Went out and got 64 more wood. Got me some cobblestone, and am now exploring the depths of the world. I was lucky and had about 60 coal stashed away in a chest, so I have plenty of torches. I'm good to go!
Not going far from the homestead until sf2k4 is in there with me. Not getting lost again.
Which reminds me, I'm thinking about building a lighthouse on that flat piece of land by our homestead. Would help if I get turned around, which happens from time to time

I have never traveled to the nether. I have watched videos, but never went myself. Never was able to get the materials needed.

It takes forever to get enough obsidian, mostly 'cause you need a diamond pickaxe and it still takes a while to mine it out.

There are a few reasons I never played it. I played Oblivion and learned Elderscrolls games are too open world for me to really get into and finish. After about 50 hours I lost focus on it and got into other games. I just prefer a more story driven game when it comes to a single player RPG. Also, didn't want to spend $60 on what I had seen to be an extremely buggy PS3 version of a game I knew I would lose interest in, and my PC isn't a very good gaming rig.

Anybody play DmC yet? Wondering if it still feels like and has the difficulty of a Devil May Cry game.

Yes and I love it. Don't listen to all the fanboys who hate it because Dante looks different. It does play a little different but I like all of the changes it feels more fluid. I would not say it is as hard as the originals but on the higher difficulty levels it is much harder than other action games such as God of War for example. The story has also been very entertaining so far. It is a reboot so don't go in expecting the same as the old games. IMO this one is much better.

Okay thanks. I knew the story was a bit different, which is fine with me considering how convoluted and confusing the previous stories had gotten with Dante going into hell at the end of 2, then the prequel, then the addition of Nero. I was torn on Dante's appearance, but it has grown on me having looked at a lot of videos and such. I was far more concerned with how the game felt and if the combat was good than with how he looked.

Very old card in the XBOX. Surprisingly new card in the PS4. PS4 looking beast.

If that info is true the PS4 is going to be considerably more powerful. Surprised Nvidia let themselves get shutout.

That card is ancient. 6670 or whatever it was? Jesus. PS4 could do some great things with their card that they are using.

OK, after thinking longer about this.... I just can't believe XBOX would once again hold a generation of consoles down. The cross platform games will once again be made for that shitty machine and then ported over to PS4. PS4 exclusives will be PC quality to start off. It will be great. Why should PS4 buyers have to suffer because of lazy developers and cheap Microsoft? Why?
Upgrade that ancient video card. Do not put in a 6000 series video card into a console in 2013, almost 2014.

sf2k4, this aggression will not stand...man.
You server has been down a lot today, but was up pretty much all of the previous 2 days. I'm guessing this is an anomaly.

Well, if what we have seen so far is true that might be what happens.
I honestly hope PC gaming starts taking off even more. We need more developers that are PC exclusive so they don't let consoles limit them.

I doubt that I will since it is basically just a PC for your living room. At least that is what it seems so far.

Thats exactly what I want, I have been looking for a bridge between console and PC so this is huge for me.

Quit being a fan boy these are just rumors. There was rumors last month that the Xbox would be more powerful. We will just have to wait and see. People act like Sony has always had the most powerful products. Last generation Xbox was more powerful than PS2. We will not know which one is more powerful until they officially release all the information. I seriously doubt there is much difference between the two. I am excited about the new consoles and will likely get both just like I have this generation. I really hope they have backwards capability so I can sell or trade the consoles I have now so I can buy both on release.

These are more than just rumors. These numbers were in court case documents. I swear to God if XBOX screws over PS again I'm going to lose it.
Quit calling me a fan boy. I had both consoles for a very long time. If that is the video card that Microsoft is using, that is sad.

Saying that Xbox has held back the PS3 is acting like a fan boy.
