Andrew POE!

Not to complain or playa hate, but the driving and handling on cars sucks. It's legitimately hard to drive and shoot at the same time and when you focus on a target, the character seems to be unable to steer too. Franklin & Lamar had me laughing though because they sound too much like friends of mine growing up.

Just got started with the game and I'm loving the shooting mechanics already. Feels very RDR-esque to me. And just did the first mission and maybe I'm too used to the arcade-y handling of Sleeping Dogs & Saints Row series.

Still waiting on that tree growing from an acorn in-game, Molyneux. When Molyneux can do that, he can talk all he wants. Until then, he can STFU.

Just wait until Infamous: Second Son. That's what I'm doing.

So much of Beyond: Two Souls gives a very strong Metal Gear Solid vibe that it's not even funny. Granted, that's just one part of the game and it'll be an interesting character-driven story. I'm just worried that the actual combat gameplay is 'paper rock scissors' or QTE heavy.

Gotta love racist wannabe rapping 12-year-olds that can't read or follow simple instructions. It's also people installing the whole game so that it (supposedly) runs better - less pop up, drive noise, etc. That is what I gleaned from reading part of a thread at NeoGAF, but those are nerds who can supposedly tell when the FPS in a game drops to 25 versus 30. There is also the inevitable blowback (reviews were bought, game performs terribly, etc.) and of course the "I'm too cool to play GTA" crew. Hey now -- I'm on NeoGAF and we're not THAT obsessive over it. Although if you go by the Digital Foundry articles, there's not that big of a difference between the 360/PS3 versions. Some of the grass effects on the 360 version look a little worse than the PS3 version but it's not that big of a difference.

Unfortunately, I don't see either console focusing on sequels to games like the ones you mentioned. I see more of a focus on open world games at least at first.

The important thing is that Giant Bomb gave the game a 5 out of 5 and Jim Sterling gave it a 9/10. If they like it, you know it's a great game.

I'm in the "unemployed gamer" camp most of the time but I would also be in "can't finish other games in stack of shame/backlog" group too. Oh and buy Saints Row IV, it's really good!

Hasn't paid his wrestlers for shows (he STILL owes money to CM Punk for Punk's work with IWA-MS) and nearly killed a 'wrestler' (I use that term loosely) in the ring for potato'ing one of his female 'wrestlers.' Karma exists for a reason. Not to say that he deserves cancer (which he doesn't) but everything bad you do to people comes back on you in your lifetime.

Like everything else with Microsoft, that whole PR release reads of "we know more about this shit than you do" while Microsoft hides behind their hardware prowess (yeah, they designed Direct X, we get it Microsoft). I guess Windows 8, Surface & Windows 8 Phone are "more complex than what any single figure can convey" too when all three of those suck. The fact that all Microsoft talks about with their system is bullshit features I did not want (Kinect 2.0, that snap-in garbage, paying money to make f*ckin' Skype calls, paying money to browse the f*ckin' internet, etc.), the 'power of the cloud' and their games which all look awful, then yeah, of course the PS4 will be 50% more powerful -- much of that system is designed around actually playing video games. Also, ten years ago, I don't think Microsoft would have even cared about trying to be a $500 cable box so I can watch The Price Is Right, they would have cared about making excellent games. My fear (which has a basis in reality) is that Microsoft will moneyhat publishers to handcuff third party games and force console parity. So multiplatform games will run great on PS4 but will look obviously held back so that Microsoft's feelings aren't hurt. I say screw that.

To get myself amped up for next Tuesday, I'm going to try to play and beat every GTA game (minus GTA 1 & 2) until then. I'm on GTA: Vice City right now. It's not going to happen, is it?

I would love to see Bully 2 be one of the last PS3/360 games and one of the early/first year PS4/XB1 games.

It doesn't work that way unfortunately. Microsoft goes by the physical MAC address of the console. He'll have to get a new 360 and he may be able to access his old account. If not, he'll have to set up a new account.

I tried the Diablo III demo and I just didn't like it. To me, Diablo and its ilk are purely PC games (although the XBLA port of Torchlight is great).

I have Hammerwatch on Steam, but haven't started with it yet. Is there online co-op? EDIT: Yup, there is!

What made me hate Ariane even more is her admitting to Nattie/Natalya that she was dating a 25 year old at 17 and a 40 year old when she was in her '20s. She needs to just quit the WWE, get off my TV, and marry a wealthy 40 to 50 year old dude. Vincent doesn't realize he's being played and you almost feel bad for the guy.

Valiant Heroes from Ubisoft looks like it's going to make you cry and also uses the Ubi Art framework. I buy pretty much every AC game. I guess I'll re-buy AC Liberation HD for more trophies!

Apparently, Cameron (Ariane) broke up with Vincent on Twitter. I can't tell if this is in response to the recent episode or an actual breakup. Honestly, Ariane is way too crazy and Vincent needs a relatively sane girl: Ariane Andrew ‏@WWECameron 8h It's never the right time to say goodbye but if things are meant to be they will @B3astMode911 #TotalDivas EDIT: She has since removed the Tweet, but Vince's response is still on his Twitter page.

I honestly didn't listen to any of the radio stations with SR4. The music was very disappointing (aside from the Mix station where most of the awesome moments were used in the game). I didn't like the controls in the 'skydiving' portion either. No explanation or anything -- I really wish that they would fix it. Also, I almost don't want a SRV unless the DLC:

Saints Row IV keeps getting better and better. GTAV will have to do a LOT to top this. And although the console version isn't very good, I will double dip on this for the PS3 when it gets to be cheaper. That's how good the game is.

The gameplay for The Last Of Us takes a LOT to get used to. It is almost like the first Resident Evil but with Resident Evil 4 gameplay if that makes any sense. It's more of a slower paced game and conserving resources is big with the game. I managed to beat it on Hard and trust me when I say this -- you will not be disappointed. I didn't like the gameplay at first either, but it slowly grew on me. A lot of people I know hated the ending, but I absolutely loved it.
