During the Eurogamer Expo I walked past Fifa on the PS4 screens and genuinely couldn't tell any difference.

I imagine if both versions were both side by side you'd notice little things but I don't think I'll ever be really impressed by sports graphics anymore. They've already hit a certain height.

Oh god that frustrates me.

If they have sorted out that lag when selecting a team that would be a huge improvement.

Some features will not be available at launch, such as “suspend/resume mode” which is a feature that keeps the PS4 system in a low power state and promptly takes users back to their game. We will provide additional information about system software update version 1.50 and features available at the PS4 system’s launch, and features that will be available after launch, in the near future.

I'm not writing it off - I thought they would have been able to do it since MAG was capable of it, like I said four years ago.

They're basically making 3 versions of it though. You've got the runt of the litter with the 360/PS3 versions. You've got the super shiny PC version. Then there's the X1/PS4. That's too sets of brand new hardware right there. DICE are probably still getting a feel for how the new networks will respond too. And all this is being done to target a small release window.

And not to mention that more players does not necessarily make the game better. 64 could be the sweet spot.

Just looking at ^^^ KZ I have never felt so confident about a new console. The future is bright for gaming!

Not being funny here but depending on the size of your hard drive 150 might be pushing it. The age of the console won't even factor really because a new current gen consoles are so competitive in pricing.

Oh, I totally agree, but I'm as well to start looking for the highest price for it than the lowest. Incidentally, it's the 360 S, matte finish 250Gb, still minty fresh! :pac:

I'm considering changing over to the killzone bundle but not sure if I will like it, it looks like a great game but having never played any of the others I'm worried I won't be able to follow the story and find it boring.

It is set some 30 years after the others and, to be honest, a quick read through the previous games' Wikipedia pages will catch you right up in no time.

Saucy new preview of KZ from Eurogamer!

If you'd like to know all about the History of Killzone,there's a great post on it The Killzone Universe: Complete Timeline & Backstory.Over on NeoGAF,it's a bit of a read.But it's worth it.

In an interview i watched afew days back, they specifically said that its a brand new story line, with no need to have played any previous KZ. But said that there will be little throw backs to past events for fan service.

Sounds good, think I will switch and pay extra €40 for the bundle If I don't like it there's always adverts I guess.

ghosts requires 49GB install upon inserting the game into the ps4...mother of god! think ill need a 2TB hdd to replace the original hdd

WeHaveToGoBack

Beginning to think I might get Killzone for PS4 regardless of whether I get in a bundle now.

FIFA 14 will be my number one choice, but a shooter would be good to have for online, and Killzone seems to be the best so will probably buy that

None of the bundles amazon offered interested me other than the Watch Dogs one, when that was delayed I just went back to the PS4 on it's own. Going to order Battlefield 4 and NBA 2K14 from videogamesplus. CN$135/€93 for both with shipping is a good price I think! I've played about 20 minutes in total of the entire Battlefield series so I'm excited to try that.

Anyone know how long they take to deliver? My last order according to my account was December 2008 so I forget how long it takes!

People bitching online about the firmware for the PS4 and the ONE.

On launch your personal console in each case may be up to 3 months old, neither company is making 3m consoles the week before release with an up to date firmware.

I think it 7 to 10 days I order Titanfall and infamous second son off them never used them so I give them a try better than paying €70 so would Dlc bought in EU work on them?

Yeah no longer than that, I use them a lot. It does but you will have to buy a US PSN gift card off Amazon.com and then create a US account on your PS3, then download the DLC from the US store, the EU version will not work.

Well I hope they have an upgraded PSN ready.
Past experiences with 300MB updates has been far from pleasant and that's with a 30mb connection.
And while I'm complaining what's with games I download from PSN that need to be updated right away? Can it not download the up to date version.
