Watched some of it last night, the stream kept cutting out, losing audio etc.

What I did see I wasn't too impressed with - I'm not a big fan of change, and I hate the look of the new PS4 controller. Looks expensive, meaning when you buy a PS4 for however much, a second official controller is going to be a shit-ton to buy seperately :/

The idea that the PS4 will anticipate what I want to buy from the store and download it for me? Fuck off, its like saying "you'll love this, I know you better than you know yourself"...and linking to social media? I'd rather not have my whole life advertised on the interwebs thanks.

Often what isn't said is as important as what they did say. No mention of keeping games free to play online (would have been a fantastic selling point), so PS4 owners are on an xbox live style points system I guess.

Playstation fan all my life, bought a clunky PS1 when I was 14 with some birthday cash and money saved from delivering papers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] This could be the end though, maybe I'm just getting old!

Don't you badmouth EQOA. It was an amazing game and I'll miss it forever. ;_;

Only thing in common was the fact that it was in the EQ universe, really.


D3 is literally just a straight port so Blizz/Sony can leech more paypal sheckles.

I can't knock it as I never played it, just judged from the screenshots and figured that it would be bad because its a MMO for a console. I'll look up some YouTube footage [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I did the same thing with an xbox 360. Bought one because I wanted to play Fallout 3 (no working PC at the time) and didn't want to pay the extra £60-70 difference to get buy a PS3 instead. Ended up hating the xbox controller (far too bulky, flippers are crap, needs batteries), hating the points system...selling it on at mate's rates to someone and buying a PS3. Never looked back actually [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

PS4 though? Super sceptical [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yea, EverQuest Online Adventures. It was pretty successful actually, and a LOT of people were upset when its servers shut down.

I saw screenshots of Kelethin and figured it could never be as good if they'd remodelled the world. Kinda wish I'd given it a try just for curiosity's sake.
