I was going to save up for a ps3 and play this...but fuck it. It's taking too long. Gonna go watch playthroughs now.

I hate myself.


dont do that! just wait maybe they will do a ps3 price cut soon. maybe you would be able to play this on ps4 via streaming! dont ruin one of the best games ever by just watching it.

Yeah I got uncharted 3 and GT5 with it. Do you know if full feature games are available to non-plus users for download? Like the first infamous?

 

thanks :)

yes they are. not ALL games are downloadable but there are tons of games to download. PS+ doesnt have any extra games, but it does give you a select number of games for free.

go to PSN store, then PS3 games and you will find tons of games to donwload. uncharted1/2/3. infamous 1/2. LBP1/2 and so much more.

Hopefully, SONY markets all their exclusives like they did The Last of Us. I actually saw commercials for it during the NBA Finals.

They actually market their big stuff. I saw commercials for LBP, Killzone, Uncharted, TLOU, Gran Turismo, and God of War. Makes sense, right? Those all sell well. Mainly Heavy Rain, in the US, sold on word-of-mouth alone.  

They didn't market Twisted Metal, Battle Royale, nor Starhawk. So, it seemed like reviews hurt those, when in reality, barely anyone knew they out. People also forget how much of a marketing monster Sony was with the PS1 and PS2. The PS3 will always go down as the "bad boy" of the PlayStation kids, while all the others (PS1/2/4) will be seen as conservative, respectful goody-goodies!  

Really? What channel(s) did you see those advertisements on? I never saw them.

Its a estimation, they said it was behind bioshock and tomb raider being the 3rd highest selling game of the year, so i suspect it will reach 900 max


Aren't you the guy who said it would do 2m lifetime? I'm pretty sure it was you. So that is your second big mistake. They were only talking about UK.

 

Edit. Ohh yeah there it is, in it's full glory: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5446821



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I saw an ad of the last of us when I saw man of steel. I was impressed. Good advertising Sony.

I think that is precisely double what I said it would do first week. The interesting thing to see will be the legs though, I just didn't imagine this to be a frontloaded title.
Could go on to sell a whole lot lifetime, we'll see how much thunder the PS4 and its launch titles steal before and during the holiday season.

G4, TruTV, and Spike.

Oh okay, I thought so.
