South Park is awesome. Why oh why did it have to be so short.

I'm wondering if I should get a PS4 for Metal Gear: Ground Zeros.

You think South Park is short, MGS Ground Zero will be like a demo. From what I hear it is, maybe a type of pre game DLC and if it do good Phantom Pain will be bigger.

I'm completely aware of it, but I'm not sure it's going to be THAT short. Either way, I'm going to be sleeping on that idea for a while. I'm already leaning on not getting a PS4 yet because there's nothing else that I want on it for a while more.

I'd absolutely recommend South Park, but it's just not long enough for $60. 15 hours of content to do everything. I had Amazon money on me so it was only 6 bucks.

Wait til it drops to the $35 range.

It's like a big season of interactive South Park, I think it's worth it especially if you like the show. Maaan dat game.

Now make a Simpsons, Arrested Development, Ooh Game of Friggin Thrones game like this where you kinda sorta live in it's world.

Game of Thrones!!!! George R.R. Martin would have to work closely with it like the SP people though. I'd love a GOT open world rpg (sigh). Drop me in that world, I get to watch main characters from a distance like MGS2 with Raiden seeing Snake here and there doing awesome stuff not interfering with the main story of Game Of Thrones.

This SP game shows that licensed games could so work. Get ready for episodic DLC that actually do what DLC was supposed to do and be like episodes.

I really hope the pc version can be modded into a anime mech game. Gundam, or something. That would be funny. That or custom textures, and more graphics like skyrim modding. Oh also custom maps, and modes. I doubt that will be possible though, no custom servers like Untreal Tournament and mod support :(

Xbox One is finally $400.

Not my picture, my next gaming hardware purchase is a graphics card, when people stop mining data for bit coins which is driving the price up!

Ah grats. I started to order Infamous but ordered a GTX 760 graphics card instead.

Infamous Second Son pictures using the share button.

Apparently MLB The Show is more impressive, or rather impressed someone more than Infamous.

Damn that's pretty.

Got MGS5, haven't really had time to play it yet though ;(

Supposed to be super short (which I knew).

Love my new graphics card, this thing is a beast compared to what I had, and it's not even in it's final form thanks to my cpu bottlenecking it. Games run with on max with a great frame rate so I'm very pleased.

So like, I had to download the 1.62 update, etc. and I can't seem to get the thing installed (this is PS4). Kept telling me it couldn't find the file and now that it does it'll go through installation but keeps restarting in safe mode. Tried googling it but couldn't find a fix....anyone know about this at all?

I've been trying to update through USB because for some reason it won't just update via internet like my PS3 always does ;(

Ouch, I have no idea what you should do. I'll check mine later today. I always leave it in standby so it can download and charge the controller.

Well shit. I don't know what to do then? I've only played the thing for like 3 hours.

I think I'm gonna need to reinstall the system software or something. I've been having an impossible time finding others with this problem on the internet. One person did mention that some people were getting the "full wipe" type thing which is sadly where I feel I may be as we speak ;(
