@Solaryellow I've got Amazon Prime. I got it for the free shipping on orders, streaming is just a bonus. Can't say I'm too impressed with it. There's almost nothing on it I want to watch. Movies I like I have on blu ray cuz streaming is crap in comparison and when it comes to TV shows the rule seems to be that if it sounds at all interesting to me it's not included with the service, have to pay extra. The documentary genre is especially terrible, nothing but micro-budget crap. No way I'd get it just for the streaming service. If Netflix isn't much better that explains why I haven't bothered subscribing to Netflix. I still consider cable TV to be miles ahead of streaming services largely because of the vastly superior selection of non-movie content but the price of cable is absurd so I don't have that either. My favorite channels on cable are Discovery, History, NatGeo, etc. Big fan of the the sorts of documentaries those kind of channels air but that stuff is almost entirely absent on streaming services. Were that to change then I'd like it a lot more.

I don't know about that. Of course we don't know for sure yet what PS4k will be but if it is twice as powerful as PS4 like is speculated do you really believe that won't have an impact on PS4 titles? Seems to me some developers will get extra ambitious and will be targeting the PS4k as the lead platform and PS4 versions could end up at 720p. I don't really think that's a bad thing cuz they'd be beautiful 720p games, half the resolution of what most PS4 games have been up to this point but twice as much going on. That would amount to an effect on PS4.

The company that makes it brings in billions of dollars each quarter yet it's dead? Lol.

I'm interested in the game. Not saying I'm interested enough to pay $60 for it but then again I do that with hardly anything. Once I can pick it up for around $20 I'll get it. I still suspect that the primary reason the game is averaging only a little under 80% is because it isn't open-world and hundreds of hours in length. Nowadays around an 8 is the ceiling for games of this length it seems.

If MS isn't going to do an upgrade then it seems less likely to me that PS4K is an upgrade as far as games go. Maybe it's just PS4 with HDMI 2.0 and 4k blu ray. I just can't imagine that MS would allow Sony to release a new version of their console that is 2X as powerful as the previous version without responding in some way. With that being said I think it would be harder for MS to do than it would be for Sony though because of X1's memory architecture and the data move engines and all that jazz. They'd have to go to a new kind of memory architecture to do an upgrade and wouldn't compatibility be compromised if they did that? Just seems like a more difficult move for them imo.

Well, I ain't played it but it sure looks better than a 6 to me. Not just talking about the graphics but the gameplay looks interesting. I intend to check it out eventually. I was guessing this probably wouldn't do better than an 8 or so though cuz critics nowadays tend to go off on single player games if they aren't open-world in some way and a kzillion hours in length.

I'd at least wait until this talk about upgraded versions of the consoles possibly releasing gets sorted out. I bought both of them several months ago and if new, more powerful ones really do come out I'm gonna be a little peeved.

I agree. I've always felt that doing 4k with games is just wasting computing resources. Whatever you can do in 4K you could do 4X as much of in 1080p and 1080p already looks plenty good enough for gaming.

Yeah, 1080p > 720p. Nothing newsworthy there. But at the end of the day 720p is playable and if a game is good it's good. Remains to be seen if this particular one is any good or not.

This sort of thing doesn't make sense to me. We're all individuals, right? If a woman is on a stage dancing or whatever it's cuz she chose to. She doesn't represent all women, just herself.
