Large Ryse video download links - these will be better to check than any youtube feeds with their terrible compression artifacts. It still looks visually impressive. I want have hands on to see how gameplay ends up.
For those that are going to purchase Knack...I was able to use a print out of the coupon at the EB Games in Beacon Hill. This EB Games has probably the best customer service I've experienced at a video game store. Very friendly people.
The bad news for those that are picking up a few games over the course of the life of the PS4 is that the hard drive is going to fill up very fast. Knack takes a minimum of 37 GB. If you were going to pick up Killzone too then those two games would take up almost 20% of the hard drive.
Has anyone received Killzone from Futureshop yet? I ordered it during the E3 sale and the game hasn't shipped yet.

Yeah, I ordered this to help with the storage demands.

Good thing then that the hard drive is easily swappable. Throw a 3TB drive in there and who cares how large the games are
Xbox, watch TV: inside Microsoft's audacious plan to take over the living room
So the entire Xbox One is designed around what you might call a bold compromise: instead of directly integrating TV, the system hijacks it. Rather than plugging your cable box and Xbox into the TV separately, you first plug the cable box into the Xbox, and then the Xbox into the TV. Your cable box is still there, and still doing all the heavy lifting of providing TV, but now it’s doing it in service of the overall Xbox One experience. Smith describes it as "augmenting" the cable box experience in an effort to eliminate the friction of switching between games, apps, and TV.
Microsoft CEO candidate Stephen Elop said to consider selling Xbox business, killing Bing
Bloomberg also suggests that Elop is willing to shut down or sell some major Microsoft businesses. Elop would reportedly considering killing off the company’s Bing search engine, while contemplating selling the Xbox business. Some investors and analysts have previously called for the software giant to split off its Xbox business and give up on search. Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen appears to feel the same way. Allen’s $15-billion asset manager, Paul Ghaffari, revealed recently that Bing and Xbox have been distractions for Microsoft.

I'm stuck, I want to get the PS4 because the graphics look better to me. However I left the 360 for a PS3 but I lost all of my friends I played online with when I switched. Plus PSN sucked, no one was ever talking online in games and it just wasn't as fun as XBL even with the 12 year old screaming kids.
I'm probably going to buy the ps4 then end up getting a XBone a few months later.

The great thing is, if you just want to take advantage of this for a next gen game once they launch, I'm sure you could trade in older games to get these, then trade them in again to get a next gen game after the release date... You'll get way more value as a trade in for one of these over older games..
Looks very polished. Slight doubts on my end about getting the PS4 now as having an entertainment system rather than solely gaming is attractive.
Not sure if they mention it in the video..but the quick resume/switch feature apparently only works for digitally downloaded games. Does not work if you purchase a cd from a store.

Whoa, looks like I'll have to part with NHL08, NHL09, and FIFA09!
I can't believe this. It's almost too good to be true.
There has to be some restriction on this. Like someone up there mentioned trading in NHL 08 and other old sports games -- there doesn't seem to be any way they'd do it for ANY current gen game. It'd be an enormous loss.
I imagine they'll probably have a list of games that qualify online so they at least get something worth some re-sell value.
