Yeah, very true. Whatever it is, looking forward to what Valve have planned with all of this. Can't think of a gaming company I'd trust more with this sort of stuff :lol:.

Anyone else following these Steam announcements? With the steam box announced I think everyone is waiting and hoping to see if they pull out their big guns as exclusives to get a decent market share and for me personally if EA will move back to steam


Links for those interested:

Steam OS
Steam Machines

Very interested to see what they do with this. The third announcement is this Friday.

Has anyone played PES2014? To me it looks less arcade like than FIFA14, bit slower and more fluid movement. Licensing doesn't really bother me given you can just download and install packs to fix it. Curious as to what people think about it

GTA V was a brilliant game no doubt, but so keen for Arkham Origins.

According to what I've read today, it's being released for download 7:00am ET in the U.S. and that for us it will 9:00pm AEST tonight.

We'll see I guess, heard yesterday that it was going to be the 2nd for us but today's reading seems to be a better confirmed.

Yeah no dice for PS3 users, some Xbox people have got in alright but most people still struggling even now, probably be a few days or maybe a week before it's properly sorted I reckon.

Depends how quickly Rockstar can get on top of the issues.

I managed to get on pretty easy after my last post, bit laggy at times but kinda expected that since they are still working on a few things, had 16 players easily and it was chaos, only thing is that 16 players may not be enough eventually with the sheer size of the map and all.

That's apparently what they are planning to do if not with this game, then a future one but I've heard they are planning on adding to this game over time, including visiting other cities.

Comparing Rockstar and EA in regards to issues of online play is laughable. EA have dealt with it for years and they dont care, aslong as people pay their micro transactions...

I don't recall ever blasting EA for server issues.

I did blast EA for price gouging in PvZ2, but that's something different entirely.

There's a huge difference between forcing people to play your single player game online, and then not being able or prepared to hand the server load, and adding an Online component to a fully offline capable single player game, and not being able to handle server load.
