Time to geek out.
What are you looking forward too?

I'm looking forward to more on the PlayStation 4, a competent Vita lineup, and some NHL 14 news.

Ubisoft: More Far Cry Games Are Coming
Fans “will be really excited when we finally show them another one.”
June 20, 2013

Ubisoft has a lot of faith in the Far Cry franchise going forward. Speaking to IGN at E3, Ubisoft senior vice president of sales and marketing Tony Key explained that the series has become a “huge brand” that Ubisoft will continue to build upon.
“
We consider that a huge brand for us at this point. You’ll see more Far Cry games, besides Blood Dragon, in the future.
“We knew it would be good, but it was even better than we were expecting,” Key told IGN regarding Far Cry 3. “From a sales perspective, too, it was a really big success for us. The brand now has achieved a fan base, a following, that I think will be really excited when we finally show them another one.”
Key noted that Far Cry has come a long way since Ubisoft took over the franchise and that the publisher was thrilled with the reception.
“Far Cry 2 was a really good game, but it was very early in the process of us as a company learning about open worlds. There were some challenges around that,” Key said. “It was critically acclaimed, but it ultimately didn’t connect with as many people as we would have hoped. Far Cry 3 was able to build on that and create something really cool. It was a great experience. It was very polished. We consider that a huge brand for us at this point. You’ll see more Far Cry games, besides Blood Dragon, in the future. We’re really excited about what happened there. It exceeded our expectations. We knew it would be good, but it was even better than we were expecting.”
Back in May, Ubisoft said Far Cry 3 “confirmed our strong comeback in the major segment of shooter games.” Far Cry 3 topped sales charts in the U.S. following launch, and Ubisoft previously confirmed that more than 4.5 million copies have been shipped to stores.
Far Cry 3 launched in December 2012, while standalone expansion Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon was released in May. For more read, our review of Far Cry 3 and our review of Blood Dragon. Look for more from our interview with Key in the days to come.

Stolen from reddit, but breaks down both systems pretty accurately I think.

The best part is these ****ing consoles won't hold back the PC versions assets anymore.

PS4 with better hardware and a $100 less price point. Microsoft and their forced Kinect... gotta love'em.

Didn't know that every PS4 game will be playable via the Vita. Not that you would want to.

Preordered a few games and an extra controller to go with my ps4

Love the fatter handles on the PS4 controller, been my only complaint with the PS3.

No offset analog sticks =
Adding groves to said analog sticks =

Whoever came up with convex analog sticks for the Dual Shock controller was a ****ing dumbass.

I'm sorry, but I can't see how offset analog sticks could be comfortable. Seems like it'd be tough to get my fingers to work together that way. I'm sure it wouldn't, but it just seems counter intuitive.

Didn't realize how big the ps4 controller is, looks good.

Sony reportedly had methodical plan to poison the well for the Xbox One

Sony PlayStation 4 Xbox One Pricing
Sony has been very eager to capitalize on the multiple mistakes Microsoft made in rolling out the Xbox One and now a new report from IGN suggests that Sony’s plans to stick a shiv into Microsoft may have been in the works for months. Unnamed sources tell IGN that Sony decided to scrap plans to require gamers to buy a PlayStation Eye sensor long before it unveiled pricing information at E3 in June. Ditching the Kinect-like PlayStation Eye let Sony knock a full $100 off the price tag for its next-generation console. More crucially, Sony also didn’t tell any of its partners about plans for a price cut to keep Microsoft in the dark. The result was that Sony earned the good will of many gamers by offering a lower-cost console that didn’t have any of the controversial DRM restrictions that Microsoft last week removed after weeks of intense criticism.

Those sneaky bastards.

Nice job Sony, if true.
