Recommended Posts

I don't think I really need a topic for it.. but be interesting to see who else pre-ordered a PS4.

PlayStation 4 (Launch Edition) [Video Game] 
Condition: New
Sold by: Amazon.com.ca, Inc.
Price: 399.00 CAD

Shipping Estimate: Dec 3, 2013
Delivery Estimate: Dec 9 2013 - Dec 13 2013

 

I don't think I really need a topic for it.

 

... and yet you started one anyway.  Maybe I should start a new topic announcing that I pre-ordered an Xbox One? Whadda ya think?

As much as I've been on Sony rants... You would think I wouldn't of bothered.

But I do have a launch day PS4 on reserve.., ordered it during E3...

But eBay may be its destination, if supply is short and demand is high

I haven't pre-ordered anything yet.  I know that means I'm missing out of the day one editions of the consoles, but I want to wait until at least Gamescom to make my decision.

 

Buying both will be costly, so only one gets the day one treatment.  I may even wait until TGS to see what kind of Japanese content is on the horizon. 

I'm just going to watch the market on both ends, and wait to see what issues people have, bitch and moan about, and so forth. You KNOW it's going to happen.

 

I'd rather not deal with it all and just be patient and get it a little later.

 

Good on you though, I hope you enjoy it! :)

Are you usually a dick for no reason?

In regards to the topic.. I still can't make my mind up which to get, are there any pro's and con's charts about or anything lol?

 

It's all about the games. If you like the games, buy the console.

Just a heads up that the PS4 release date will likely be announced during Gamescom this week also a source who works for a large gaming retailer in the US is backing  'October 21st, 2013' as the release date week because they are receiving a 'Sony Entertainment Systems' product for sale during that week and the new PS3 flash console is out this week, so a PS4 release looks likely (Unless they made a new version of the Vita).

 

October 21st is unconfirmed at this stage.

Well Gamescom seems like the perfect place to announce it.   It'll be interesting to see how many countries they commit to for day one. 

 

If I was one of these companies, Id probably wait as long as possible considering the issues that can come up lol.

 

I would laugh if both consoles launched on the same day, that would be armageddon.  Think of the lines and the violence in the streets. That wont happen though.

So the Nov 30 is just a place holder then?

  • 1 month later...

Vita needs some better games, even Sony seems to have pushed it to the wayside, meanwhile 3ds has some terrific games and good frame rates despite it's less powerful. It's obvious devs don't take much time or effort with many of the Vita games. It reminds me of the Atari Lynx, powerful, unique but crappy gameplay.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
