    Yeah but there are still some major bugs. A lot of people are pretty pissed.

    This whole industry is bull ish. I am currently disappointed with Halo multiplayer, but what choices do I have? Black Ops 2? BG3?

    Three choices? That's it.

    Dead Space 3 will be a tough decision. I want to play it but EA has really screwed me lately. Especially with certain aspects of BF3.

    I will probably break down and get it. EA does still put out a few decent titles every now and then. As long as you are not playing MP it is harder for them to screw you over.

    Although they obviously screwed up Mass Effect 3 by rushing it out.

    Yeah, I don't see them being able to screw consumers as much because they are just the publishers of that one too. Visceral has yet to let me down, so here's hoping EA doesn't eff that game too by getting too involved.

    I enjoy playing it, but I don't feel the need to play it. That probably doesn't make any sense, but that's how I feel.

    Feel the same way about ACIII. I know I'm in the minority though.

    Me too I think Halo 4 multiplayer is the best in a long time. All games are rushed out now except for Rockstar games. You should get your digital magazine around 2 today that has all the new information. There is going to be 3 main protagonist that you play as. As far as Dead Space 3 I will get it but at the same time I am pissed they are going co op. I just wished they would keep it survival horror and not make another damn co op action game. I like the zombie modes a lot in COD but Left 4 Dead is the best.

  • I really enjoy borderlands 2. I just jump in a random game and help some guys out for a little bit and move on. It is a great time. I don't feel like I have to progress the story or anything, I am just enjoying the game and the added difficulty of 4 people.

  • AMD Radeon is into the 9000 series now, and they are giving us a 7670. The 7670 was a mid-grade GPU in January of 2012. Almost 2 years later, Sony is releasing a console with a GPU that was mid-grade 2 years earlier. Think about that for a second.

    They say that there goal is to run games at 60 fps and 1080p. Well, computers have been doing this for a decade, so they shouldn't have to try too hard...yet they are?

    The RAM is good.

    Bottom line is, it will be a great console. It is already outdated compared to PC, and it doesn't come out for at least another year. Pretty disappointing. I know they do it to save them and the customer money, so I'm OK with it. If they would go with an AMD 9000, it would likely shoot the price of the console up $300.

    I'm really just thinking of going PC to get the best of both worlds. Games, Graphics, ect...

    You will not have as many people to play with and will miss out on a lot of exclusives by going PC only.

    I will definitely get a PS4. Doubtful on a Xbox though.

    I'm sure I will get the PS4. Exclusives are too good not to. I just find it funny that they are "trying to get 60 fps and 1080p" on a gaming console in 2012/2013. Good God, get with the damn times already.

    Consoles are already having a hard time making money. The specs mentioned here have been rumored for a long time and are exactly what should have been expected. They can't have a $400 graphics card. Just not possible.

    You are also forgetting that developers can optimize a lot more on consoles because they know exactly what specs they are working with. I fully expect next gen games to look top notch.

  • Some of the details about GTA V have been released from the Game Informer issues. Everything sounds pretty good. I am not sure how I feel about there being three different characters. Could be innovative and bring something new to the game or it could end up being a disaster. I have faith in Rockstar though. Just don't think the story will end up being as strong as RDR.

    The rest sounds awesome though.

    I had to buy a new one recently as well. So right there with you. I am sure it won't release before this time next year.

    You disgust me. For all the problems I have with BF3 I would still rather play it over CoD.
