    It's a podcast, not an article. And if you think that's what you do in Bioshock Infinite, then you clearly either haven't played the game, or are very, very stupid.

    I would actually like to see them make a prequel out of it instead. Back when Marston was an outlaw. Seems more interesting and like less of a boyscout than the first game.

    So how is everyone going about pre ordering their PS4? I feel like I missed the Amazon train and won't be getting it on launch day if I order through there. As much as I don't care for Gamestop I feel like it'd be easiest just to pre order from one of the ten places around my house and just pick it up day of.....

    I'm not preordering it at all. I have enough games to keep me busy, so I won't be shopping for one for at least a month after release. Enough time for user reviews to make themselves felt.

    I won't be upgrading anytime soon. It usually takes a year or so to fix the bugs and have a library large enough to justify buying a new platform, diminishing returns and such.

    As in previous generations, it usually takes a year or so for developers to really utilize the specs of the console anyways.

    I'll probably be getting the PS2 I never had before I get a PS4. The only next-gen game I'm really looking forward to is Destiny.

    Check this out:

    I'm so behind on PS3 titles, I'm going to wait maybe 6 months to a year or so for PS4. I don't want to miss out on the early sleepers people dismissed. The PS3 had a lot of solid early titles people forgot about. Folklore was a fun title, not launch, but really early on. Also Valkryia Chronicles is a super fun game and I'm surprised there wasn't a sequel.

    Please tell me FreeCorps and I aren't the only ones watching The International 3???

    This tournament....holy shit. The production values are INCREDIBLE for an esports tournament, the prize pool is MASSIVE and the games have been ridiculous.....

    This is honestly more exciting and entertaining than any sporting event I can remember in recent history. Watching the Americans (Team Liquid), who were predicted to finish toward the end of the 16 team pack take out a Chinese team (LGD.CN), who were projected to be a top 3 and possible champions was so fucking enthralling.

    I have to go run 10 miles now to kill this adrenaline....and this massive xenophobic 'MERICAN erection.

    As an eG fan (less so since they released Idra, but whatever) rooting for Liquid feels weird, BUT WHATEVER. USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA

    Kidding. I was a command & conquer nerd. It was great until EA bought westwood studios. I used to watch a bit of the star craft games that were streamed. Still wish C&C would of gotten as big as star craft.
