I read something about this game just yesterday. Looks like the logical next step in what gaming will be. I hope it's great, though I'll probably never play it.

curious as to why you say this? I understand some people prefer PC overall but console gaming still has it's place in my opinion. Some games are just made for console and the experience is more catered to sitting on the couch in front of the TV with a controller. not to mention console exclusives like this, and the last of us, etc.

I'll be getting it on PS4 whenever I do end up getting a PS4.

I was about to buy one last month but then held off when I thought about it for two seconds. I have a ton of PS3 games I bought and never beat so I'm going back and beating them or for some playing them for the first time. Arkham City was jus tbeat the other day and I started the God of War collection today. Hope to have all three beat by next month.

It's very simple for me
I paid for the game
I paid for the console
I paid for the internet service

Why the fuck do I have to pay some other asshole to play a game with fucking friends?

Because of greed and ignorance

I will not cater to either if I can avoid it and I can avoid it here by never purchasing a console as long as they charge their customers a fee to play a game online.

dude it's like $50 for a year of playstation plus. Plus they give you two free games every single month on PS3, PS4 and Vita. more than makes up for the subscription cost. I think Xbox live does a similar thing now where they give you free games too.

The ability to play online is a bonus, sure, but far from the main reason to get playstation plus. Even without it you can still access online features in most games, just some of them are limited.

There's literally no reason to have a PS4 and not pay for PS+.

^^^^^^ True.

However I'm not as much into gaming as I used to be, thus multiplayer doesn't affect me at all. PS+ is tits though, just don't have time to play like I used to.

Just wish there was something out there that grabbed my attention, whether it's ps4, xbone, or wii u.

I hear you Jordan and i can more than afford it. I could buy every console right now and a year subscription and wouldn't break a sweat. That's not the point.

The point is that Microsoft and Sony are forcing this and not having it optional. If it was my choice to get this service then I would be OK with it. But gamers are getting hornswoggled by these 2 corporations and they're "OK with it" because they perceive value in it. I do not. I will buy my games, I could give 2 shits if they give me 2 free games.

2 free games PER MONTH. And they're typically really good games too. It's a great service I'm happy to pay for. get off your high horse.

You're really just missing out. meh.

I'm pretty much obsessed now. I stayed up to 4 this morning. The fact that they added the RPG aspect to it makes it worth playing it hours on end.
Music's what i need to keep my sanity

same here man. Was up til 4:30AM playing on saturday after i got back from the bar. doesn't help that all my friends are in the states so that's really the only way to play with them in their timezone haha.
So obsessed though. I got the most baddass legendary auto rifle and now i'm killing it in crucible

(the one in this pic only has 54 in the magazine. mine has 72 for some reason so I can just unload so many bullets into the other guy before he even gets a chance to shoot me back haha)

I'm level 24 now. Have you checked out the loot cave farming spot? I got a ton of upgrades just spending an hour there.
