Alright, whose played Lego Marvel Super Heroes?

It's gotten high reviews by various online game reviews, and in the xbox store currently has a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and I'm thinking of pulling the trigger and picking it up to give it a little play time...

Any CP opinions on it?

Both the Xbox One and PS4 require all games to be installed from the disc, due to the increasing size of games and the relatively low speed of optical drives. So both consoles have a feature that allows you to launch a game as soon as enough content is installed to begin running it, while the rest of the data continues to install in the background. Our test was how long it takes to launch the game from the time you insert a disc, with a normal console connected to the internet.

We tested six multiplatform games on both consoles and every time, the PS4 was under a minute while the Xbox One install was several minutes long and required downloading an update before beginning the installation. When you include downloading those updates for each Xbox One game that happen in the background on PS4, the install times can get as high as fifteen minutes before you can even launch the game.

Once games are loaded, all things are relatively even.

Ah, the install and update don't really bug me, but if you're going to require the whole full install business, then don't piss me off and require me to still put in the disc of whatever title I feel like playing. There has to be a better way for authentication!

For example, how hard would it be to put an rfid in the disc by the center hole?
That way, you simply keep the disc in the case within 5 to 10 feet, and bypass that junk.

I was watching a youtube video and just realized you might be able to troll people you are playing with. The video was on kinect commands, my kinect heard and did it.

So theoretically I could cover my kinect mic, yell into my headset with kinect commands while playing and if their volume is up loud enough it would do it.

I'd say it is. The amount of games I've nabbed for free due to PSN off the PS3 and PS4 store has definitely equaled the amount of money I would of spent trying to just buy the games. That's just in one month out of 12.

Only downside is I need to upgrade the HDD in both systems to hold everything

Got mine Thursday night. Waiting in the warmth of the mall was nice. Each of the Gamestops in town had at least 30 PS4's.

Out of the first 15-20 people in line, only one guy was there for a XBox One. Might call tomorrow and see if they still have XBox's on the shelf. Just for laughs of course.

You're really showing that multi-billion dollar company who's boss.
