I still need to catch up on halo nightfall. Glad to hear it is good though. Wasnt a fan of the first episode but the second one was much better

We just sent out today's batch of Alpha invites. They all have friend invites attached. More on Friday and Saturday.

 




       

Yea, Nightfall is getting really intense I really like Locke, Macer, and Aiken, but like Ryuu I believe Aiken is waiting to join his daughter in the after life.

On another note, how the heck does 4/12/2014 get chosen for the release date, I'm certain it's incorrect but usually 12/31 is chosen as a default date. I think they like to mess with people.

Capcom's Hiroyuki Kobayashi : "Unexpected" game announcement "soon"

I wouldn't get my hopes up for any Capcom announcement.. They really know how to screw up things!

Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

We hear about hardware cost reductions, nothing has been said about XB1 yet. Kinect is quite cheap to make as well. Factor in the free games and I would estimate around $100 lost per console.

MS don't get costs down as fast as Sony for some reason.


Yeah I agree. I think the loss is quite substantial at ~$100 per console right now (imo), considering the free games. I also dont think hardware costs come down as fast as most people seem to think.

Just about every time a manufacturer cuts price we see the impact in the financials. With Sony it was glaringly obvious that the cuts to the PS3 heavily imapacted their bad financials, even when we assumed the cost to produce a ps3 must have gone down substantially since release and a $50 cut would be absorbed by hardware cost reductions.

Ultimately though, i dont see MS in the console industry purely to make profit. Which is why cutting the price so fast was a good move given what i think are their goals with Xbox.

The fact that MS can basically cut price like this on a whim makes them a scary competitor. The cut completely changed the landscape in the US this holiday, and i fully expect the momentum to carry on into 2015. And given sony's goals i dont see a reaction from them in the near future.

I'm looking at my achievement list, I'm only missing the online achievement with castle crashers... Anyone doesn't mind helping me with these? (Easily boosted)

Done. 1250/1250, my first 100% retail game.

I had some close to but for different reasons like broken final bosses (sonic generations) or new dlc (halo 3).. They weren't letting me do 100% lol. (Time consuming gears 2 ranking system, really hard lost odyssey battles..)

I did 200/200 on worms 1 and dash of destruction tho

Congrats on the 100%, must have been a lot of work! :)

Haven't ever 100%-ed a game myself, closest I ever got was with The Elder Scrolls Oblvion on X360 (62% xD;) . My attention span is so bad when it comes to achievements, so I admire everyone that has the drive to get them all.
