Anyone else see that pre-orders between PS4 and X-box 1 are neck and neck?

There was big controversy over it after E3 because Max wasnt going to have an Australian accent. After the backlash, they've changed thier minds and gave him the accent back.
As if it's hard to find an actor that can do the accent. That right there shows they don't give a damn about the franchise and just want to make a fast buck off the name.

Most movie tie-in games suck anyway, though. They're usually rush-job cash-ins coasting on the brand name recognition of the movie itself. "OMG! DID YOU LOVE IRON MAN?! THEN YOU SHOULD BUY OUR CRAPPY GAME BECAUSE IT HAS IRON MAN DOING IRON MAN STUFF!!"
Occasionally the "game of the movie" is decent, but most of the time it's just garbage with shiny packaging.

Indeed, and when "they" don't give a damn about the franchise, I don't give a dime
and in the end they lose money.At best it will be another Aliens: Colonial Marines :sick
Iron man seconded. I managed to play it through. And it wasnt AS bad as everyone said. But was far from a good game. Reminded me of spiderman games. Once you get over webslinging around. Its boring having to go from one end of the map constantly.
I dont know why they dont wait until after the movie and actually follow the story. I hate buying games which are ment to tell the story but its a crap rehashed version as they had limited resources for information

"More impressively, the controllers automatically recognize who is holding the controller through the camera." I'm guessing this will lead to this:
I'm sorry Dave I can't let your friend play this game, he/she did not pay for it.
Time for a rename: Fbox

Wonder how low the price of a PS3 will drop. I'll buy a few extra of those, and wait for a while and see what's up with the next gen.
I'm hoping the price on the 360 and ps3 goes down because i'd like to get at least 1 more of each and my fiance wants a 360 for xmas i think. i really need to get a wii u. i wanted that new Ouya system but it's got so many bugs in it that i'll wait and get one used cheap.

Think I am done with 360 I have went through five in the last three years. Of course the red circle of death and other probs. Bought a new one in Dec, the guy at Best buy said they now have a rate of less than 3% failure, mine failed in the first month. I am in Vegas so I sent it in and found out they send them to Mexico to get fixed. When I got it back it no longer will play DVD's which I let my kids use for that. It stated that the memory was taken. Play station here I come.
3%!? Thats staggeringly higher then I would have thought. I had no idea anyway but thats a lot multiplied by the millions

Ya I really never thought about it in regards to the failure rate, and I understand that I could just have been unlucky over the last few years. It does get old having to continue to buy these things but after the bad service that I got from out of country I'm done with 360.

3% failure rate is a significant improvement over what it used to be and now it's around the same as the PS3. I'm on my fourth Xbox. First one was RROD, second one was a replacement/refurb that had the drive crash completely, third one was an arcade unit I bought instead of sending the second back to MS which started to have the drive go on it and now my newest is my Gears of War slim. I've had it almost 2 years and apart from it freezing a few times (90% on BF3 and that was a glitch with playing on servers with insanely high tickets), I've had zero problems with it.
Used to be like 90%. I'm on my TENTH xbox *sigh*
When Mass Effect came out in '07 the damn thing broke down a week before the game came out, needless to say I did not have a good time having the game in my hand, not being able to play it. Guess what happened when ME2 came out?? SAME THING.... waited SIX WEEKS before I said frak it and bought a new one, finally got a new back from M$ just 2 days shy of another SIX weeks later, so almost three months. In between that after I sent it to them, they lost it! "We don't know where it is, are you sure you sent it?" uh, yes?! :wacko only took them about a week to sort that mess out and let me know "we found it". That is to say they told me after my 20th something phone call to their god awful "support" service.
Good times! :thumbsup
