That's really weird, why not just put it all up? I wonder if it's some weird server load management precautions.
Dunno, remember my interviewer from the Delaware shipping center told me they'd be doing a slow trickle last month... Seems late but accurate.

Just read about Forza's drivatar's! Oh dang it's like a beefed up ghost racer, and can race against your fiends as well!

Sounds so awesome.

Think a couple of you might be at CES... they have infamous second son available to play at the Sony booth. Pretty fun.

yeah I got to play for 5 minutes yesterday it was pretty good, will definitely be a buy at launch for me. The only other game I saw that isn't live was that weird worms running around flowers game (houkouroufoo or some shit like that), no one was touching it.

right behind the second son and other PS4 games you can check out Playstation Now, TLOU on a vita is really cool too. If anyone is still going to the sony booth today or tomorrow ask if Red Dead Redemption will be playable on PS Now. Also right next to that area is Sony's VR glasses, wasn't as good as the Occulus Rift so didn't spend much time on it. The Intel booth and some other random booths around the floor had the new Occulus Rift, the one with OLED and 4k but the lines were too long for me to try

Usually Week 1 for PS3 title #1 and week 3 for PS3 title #2 as a general rule of thumb when there's only two PS3 titles - when there's three like last month, 1 and 3 are a given but 2 or 4 seem random.
I'd put money down on Brothers next week and Bioshock the one after that.

DmC is a far better game anyway.

As for Playstation Now, I have major doubts about its usefulness for any sort of action game, and with the way even JRPGs have gone over to the action RPG genre for the most part I'm pretty skeptical about what I'd want to play on it. Then again, I've already played every PS3 game that I want to anyway, to the point where my GameFly queue was sitting empty since xmas so PS Now isn't really for me anyway.

On the PS4 front, has anyone heard anything about when the patch to bring full functionality to the Pulse Elite headsets is due to drop? It works well enough plugged into my DS2, but I would like to have the volume lowered when voice chat is coming in. On another note, AC IV is amazing. It's the best Uncharted game Naughty Dog has ever put out. AC 2 was the only Xbox 360 game I 100% completed, and I can see myself going for all the achievements here.

I've seen PS4 in stock at numerous stores recently (Target, Meijer, Walmart, etc.), so hopefully it shouldn't be too hard to find if you want one.

My wife was told by a local Sony rep that during the Holidays only Bestbuy and Gamestop were getting decently sized to big replenishments. Evidently the Targets and Walmarts pissed someone off? The day after she was told her BB got 80 ps4s and 50 xb1s, and the Gamestop only got 5, so I guess we'll never really know what the priorities were.

Her management team were making jokes about not selling out of those xb1s before Xmas, while the ps4s lasted 4 hours. She's the only gamer, the rest of them are still confused.
