knack

+1

I played it and beat it before ever reading a review and thoroughly enjoyed it (was shocked by the 4 here). It was a little repetitive and the story was near non existant (I play games for fun, if I want a great story I'll read a book), but the games controls and visuals were spot on and consistant with no bugs or glitches experienced. A 4 is a broken game in my opinion and knack is no where near a broken game. I would give it a solid 7.5 or 8. I'm sure Ryse will be the same for me, but I haven't picked up Xone yet.

Blacklight: Retribution and Warframe are missing from the list. Both games are rather fun and free.

499$ X1

449$ PS4

How's the X1 cheaper exactly?

Probably because the X1 bundle includes Titanfall

PS4 is still cheaper

I don't really know how he is calculating it as cheaper, however I'm also not Canadian so this doesn't really affect me

I guess if he's thinking PS4+1 game=510 and X1 titanfall bundle=500

But you have 1 week of PSN+ with the PS4,so you get few games instead of 1

So,still cheaper

No because as soon as that weeks up you loss it.

Unless you keep paying for Live, you lose Titanfall too as far as I'm concerned since it's MP only.

In order for MS to be "closing in", they would need to outsell Sony for a month first. The gap is still widening every month, maybe not as big of a gap last month in NA, but Sony still sold more hence they didn't close in even 1 unit.

nothing really released last month for Xbox One and it only undersold the ps4 by around 30 thousand units. if that doesnt tell you and everyone something then i don't know what will.

i'm not saying there is a major shift going on...but there is a shift.

http://www.totalxbox.com/73400/xbox-one-sales-up-96-in-uk-as-titanfall-tops-charts/

"In what probably isn't the most surprising news you'll read all year, Titanfall's launch in the UK on Friday has shot the Xbox One hardware full of vim and vigour. UKIE reports that weekly sales are up a staggering 96 per cent, with sales of the £399.99 Titanfall bundle accounting for 70 per cent of this figure"

-

"According to UKIE, Titanfall "more than doubles the sales of what had been 2014's current leader FIFA 14, which until now had delivered the highest sales for an All Formats No1 back in Week 1 of this year."

after recent news i don't see how anyone can say how the gap is widening, if anything.

It tells me they aren't "closing in" but still falling further behind in total sales. Your thread title says CLOSING IN which is 100% false at this moment. Personally, I hope both consoles sell neck and neck as it benefits us the gamers, however, your topic title is misleading and false and screams desperation.

The PS4 dash is very impressive. So much it is the second best one in gaming.

Agreed, it is only second to the Xbox 360 blades :)

Great, Xbox Once, XBOX360 and PC scores another hit, well done Respawn and Microsoft. Don't worry cows, you still got your best shooter Resogun.

Fixed for accuracy.

Online games get reviewed all the time without servers being live. Just ask BF4 which got an undeserved 8.

Definitely agree with you here! I'm waiting a week or two for user reviews before deciding on getting it for the PC

Neither are very important to me, but I prefer Games with Gold because I get to own the games that they give. The Instant Game Collection has never had any value to me because I don't like renting games. It is very important to me that I own the games that I play.

I used to feel that way. Now that I own Lair and Too Human from last gen,I wish they would go away after stopping a subscription. :)

I seriously don't understand why people are like "meh" or "not as good as last gen" or "im not impressed".

its a shame people are ignorant of the X1's power... maybe that's why they're just like "meh".

But anyway, the competition now is at a all time high.. thus games will deliver and its a great time to be a gamer imo.

I mean, Wii U is the first Nintendo console to have HD visuals.. current'y playing DK tropical freeze and loving it. ca'nt wait for Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. They'll be the best in the series since the N64 days, which was Nintendos last good console imo.

What power does the X1 have that is not exceeded by the less costly PS4 that people are ignorant of? The Wii U being HD??, quite the feat considering the 360 and PS3 were doing it for the last 8+ years. Bottom line is there are NO games on the any of the systems that are making the jump to the new systems worth it yet. It's early and I'm sure the games will be here in no time, but it's very understandable why people are not impressed and say "meh".
