Sure.

Well, other than the PS4 also being a hundred dollars cheaper and ~50% more powerful...and with a much larger and better stable of first party developers.

Otherwise, virtually identical. ;)

oh, it's not a gloat. it's to specifically point out the absurdity of your posts when everyone was comparing the 2 games back in the day.

and it does suck for PS4 owners. i truly mean that. :shrug:

Considering they are still releasing free games on 360 from 2006 and 2007, I wouldn't hold your breath.

to be fair, they've released other games that have come out w/in the past year or two, but those are fewer and far between than the older games.

Not criticizing you, but actually trying to remember now, what was the newest game they have released so far doing that? Sleeping Dogs? And after that the Tomb Raider GOL game?

Yep, like a month or two ago

Yeah, and both those two were already previously free from Playstation Plus.

To be fair, there have been a couple of new-ish XBLA games like Iron Brigade, Toy Soldiers Cold War and Magic 2013. But outside of Sleeping Dogs, the full games they've given out have been pretty old -- a lot of stuff from before the Obama Administration

I'm OK with that. I'm looking at 3-4 high profile games that I'll probably buy this year (Batman, Infamous, Destiny and maybe The Order), and I don't know that I would have gotten around to the Witcher.

But in February? Maybe.

Yep, I'm totally OK with that too. Gives me a chance to crack open Witcher 2 ;)

Too bad about Witcher 3. It is one of my more anticipated games, but I would rather have a delay than a rushed product.

We joked in a previous thread, but it's only a matter of time before Sneak King is offered up in the Games for Gold promotion.

I'm not saying this as a "defend the PS4 to the death!" guy or anything, but...

Isn't it kind of disingenuous to compare Wii U holiday sales to PS4 sales in late February/early March? I don't know how big a thing Christmas is in Japan, though. The steep drop is absolutely worth noting, and I'm not making any excuses in that sense, but this doesn't seem entirely apples-to-apples to me.

Same here in the states, though (I realize Japan doesn't value FPS's as much, and I wonder if Titanfall can actually make an impact in that market).

I think we agreed a few weeks ago that Japan doesn't matter anymore.

Or something like that. :)

So how was stock in the Japanese market anyway?

I'm assuming pretty good, since it's in stock on Amazon.co.jp, just like in the US - and it's super easy to get an Xbox One over here.

It wasn't Nintendo's fault that Sony waited until Feb to launch the PS4 in Japan.

It's also neither of their faults that people write stupid articles.
