Deviant Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Thanks Jimmy. So there isn't anything that will hold its back from taking my fifa to a mates house and playing it there without an internet connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) Nothing at all. Edit: Except that the console needs a one time internet connection upon it's initial setup. Not each game, just once for the actual console the first time you turn it on. Edited August 31, 2013 by Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKD Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Anyone getting Total War: Rome 2? Looks pretty good but I've got no idea whether I'll like it or not. I'd wait for reviews but if you pre-order you get a few bonus Greek city states, so I want to smash them as Macedonia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's Xbox because the games interest me more, they've got the better track record for online and most of my mates are buying the same.

For me it's Xbox because the games interest me more, they've got the better track record for online and most of my mates are buying the same. come to think of it, that'll be the same with me also. The exclusives on PlayStation don't seem to really hit the spot upon release. The Xbox has Blu Ray now so I can still watch them. My mates are getting the Xbox also... Now I just need them to give us a release date! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deviant Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 http://www.whathifi.com/news/xbox-one-release-date-and-price-revealed-by-uk-retailers Possible Xbox one, release date and compete run down on specs and options. I read another article hinting on a worldwide release on the 29th of November. Another hinting for a 27th of November release date. This should give a rough idea. Also, to get the best trade in price on your current console, it's recommended to trade it in a month before hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKD Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just bought it for $48. It might be in US, so that works out to around $54 AUD. Either way, saved a fair bit off the steam price.

Tesla Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Microsoft have killed it with their support for dedicated servers. Already cod ghosts is set to have dedicated servers for xbox one, doesn't appear to be the case for ps4. If this becomes a trend them that's a big win for xbox one tbh.

Jimmy Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) I lol at the amount PS4 fanboys around the net who justify their purchase and claim to be morally superior by their choice in which money hungry corporation they give their cash to.

Footballism Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 lol at people calling out people who are going to buy PS4s as fanboys yet are claiming xbox one to be superior with very little basis. Bit ironic. TBH I have hardly looked much at the consoles since their announcements but I have no idea why someone would rather get the xbox considering how much the fucked up their announcement. Then MS went back on most of what they announced because the xbox "fanboys" were all crying about them. Hardly fills you with confidence in the company, how long before they fuck up again? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'll be getting the PS4 as I prefer the exclusives that it has to offer although I must say that Microsoft has definitely redeemed itself after their awful conference at E3, the XB1 looks like it'll be a really great console. I'm also getting a Wii U (lol) just for the next Super Smash Bros whenever it eventually comes out, god damn it I've been waiting forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Polak Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 On another subject, I will be going to uni to purchase an original chipped xbox from a student who has his own stall that sells all ancient games he has collected through his childhood. My one was broken a long time ago and I'm eager to use it again to play the 250+ burnt games I have in a folder all for the nostalgic feels when I get friends over to play some co-op.

Nate Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nintendo's games are ace. I agree, Nintendo's my favourite of all the gaming companies but I just think the Wii U's library doesn't offer a hell of a lot at the moment. Some good games coming out in the next couple of years though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that got sold to Microsoft? Yeah, Microsoft own Rareware but Nintendo held the rights to DK and now Retro Studios make its games. It got a reboot on the Wii a couple of years ago with Donkey Kong Country Returns which overall was a good game, but I reckon it kind of sucked compared to the awesomeness of the original trilogy. A new DK game called Tropical Freeze is coming out for Wii U next year though which looks a lot more promising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, although it's actually based in the UK so it takes a while for games to arrive. Im not sure how the match making works for console games, but I assume if u bought a game which is supposed to be sold in the uk, it will try to match you with uk players when playing online (obviously a bad thing for lag). Their ten dollar birthday discount is a good deal though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure you would still be put into Aus servers/games (you definitely would be on PC) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
