There was something similar with the 1997 release of the super hyped US Godzilla film. They wouldn't show it for review until a few days before release. I hope this isn't that all over again.

Huh...1998's Godzilla film was a Sony production.

Ops, yes, year corrected.

I remember staying up all night to watch the opening in Hollywood.  I couldn't get the first showing, but got the 3:20AM at the world famous Cineramadome!

People walking out told us it was horrible and sucked.  I thought that it mean it was even better than expected and they were just teasing!  But a tiny bit of me feared they were telling the truth.

Today Godzilla fan refer to it a 'Zilla' they say it does not earn enough diginity to be called Godzilla.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Not sure why you picked that particular movie. This is something that's very common in the film industry, not a Sony exclusive. If a distribution company/ producer isn't confident in a movie critically - they won't allow screeners for it (or they'll do a very limited run) so the critics have to see it day 1 at midnight and not early - thus not able to harm a  film as much with a bad review.

Ha.. i won my bet, but i wasnt around to gloat because im on a better forum!  See ya guys on Viz

Sounds to me the media are just pissed off they dont get their Ps4 nice and early for the reviews and trying to make up reasons why they're not getting it early. But it does seem like Sony have alot on their hands and probably wont deliver everything they promised on launch.

I think you filled the OP with enough speculation.

We really have no idea what it's about. Also it's very flawed of you to rule out Microsoft just because of Albert's comment.

Sounds like you are rasing him right!  Good job papa DD_Bwes.

I did get to see 'Final Wars' in Hollywood.  It was an awesome night.  The whole crowd was full of excieted fans.

Has he seen "Monsters' yet?  Looking forward to the new one?

It negatively impacts the media, and it may impact the ability for the media to offer credible reviews...

The media has suffered from an inablilty to offer credible reviews for years. I wouldn't want them to feel like they have an excuse though.

Well there was nothing God about it.



I think @ethomaz is tired of spending time in line at BSG today.

I´ve been reading some disquieting posts at twitter and some brazilian foruns that there is no PS4 retail unities for the general public at BGS. All PS4 games are being shown on devkits or PCs. Some games showing debug code on screen, freezes and reboots.

I´d hoped he could confirm or dismiss those rumors.

PS: I think there is a great chance the situation is the same for XOne games.
