The Pit scene was epic. In the graphic novel the Gov was just a evil screwed up ass... This Gov just seems to have mentally lost it. He was once a good guy and somewhere down he still is, but he's so screwed up that he still holds a grudge against Rick's group. I can see the little girl dying sending him over the edge again... Carol might be in that camp.
 
Ever since the little heart to heart Daryl and Martinez had, I've wanted to like hi characater. He seems to have some moral justice about him. The Gov is going to end up killing him in the end I predict. They might have their own little Shane/Rick moment.
 
I can see the next 2-3 episodes focusing on the Gov, and it would be a nice breather from the Prison. If the little girl dies, it will be some type of accident caused by Rick's group, and its going to lead to a big showdown I bet. Maybe Carl puts a bullet in her.
 
*Cue Epic scene from the comic that features a character that never appeared in the show*
From the Atlanta group before Hershel's farm, twins lose there mom and dad. Dale and Andrea take them in and one of the boys kills his own brother because hes f'ed up in the head... no one knows how to handle so they lock him in a van, and Carl takes care of it at night. The secret is kept between Rick and Tyrese forever.
 

 

 

 

Kenshin FTW... I can't believe I forgot this one:
 

One of my favorite anime endings is probably from Saber Marionette, mostly because the ending made no sense at all until the final episode.. then I realized it was foreshadowing the entire time.
 

 
This Kenshin ending was always good too:

Even if PS Home isn't on PS4 I might switch over to TESO anyway.
 
Though now that they have a PS4 event on PS Home I'm looking forward to the plausible outburst of anger no matter what Sony does during it. I finished the quests that gave me the free PS Vita games only to enter a door followed by the words To Be Continued.

A few more notes:
 
Sniping is a pot luck with the first rifle you get. High center mass seems to be a instakill but I've had plenty of hit markers. There are a few maps with high vantage points, and you can close off the ladder access via a hatch, but none of your teammates will beable to get to it as well, and if you die, then that roof is no longer accessible. I was assault one round and my whole squad was sniping from the roof, I ended up with 3 defib ribbons with how many revives I performed.
 
As recon, you can't unlock all the sniper rifles by using a carbine or shotgun... you'll only progress unlocks through that weapon type as you use it. (Crap... I have to go through all that to get my GOL Magnum arguably the best sniper rifles in BFBC2). Every class has access to, Carbines, DMR (designated marksmen rifle), and shotguns when they are unlocked. LMG, Sniper Rifle, Assault Rifle, and PDW are exclusive to their respective class.
 
I did my first counter knife yesterday... its as easy as pressing one button. I'm not sure if its O or whatever you have as your melee button all the time or it prompts a random button. You have ample time to hit it and there is no point to knife from the front, because unless the other player just completely sucks, you'll lose every time... which is funny because my first successful knife was from the front. When a teammate is knifing someone from the front or the back, the enemy player becomes invincible so you cant steal their kill... however its wise to keep your cross hair on them on frontal knifing for the reasons I just listed. If an enemy is the knifer you can take them out before the process is complete.
 
Field upgrades are similar to squad perks in later ranks on BF3, except there are in sets now and you can gain each tier as your squad progresses... once everyone in the squad dies the field upgrade resets to zero. I don't think people on PS4 realize how important it is when "LAST MAN IN SQUAD" pops up on your screen... its even more crucial that you don't die so someone can spawn and the field upgrades stay intact.

Here is your Trailer for BF4 Second Assault which will be available for Xbox One at Launch, and later on other platforms. Second Assault features BF3 maps with sleeker visuals and new Levolution events.
 
Wow the sand storm on Oman is going to be crazy... Parcel Storm's rain levolution is awesome with turtles, it really sounds authentic how the rain hits the ground and your head. I can only imagine what Oman holds. I watched some Live Stream of Metro last night... although I don't like the map, It did look a lot better visually. The roof caving in is going to be interesting. I wonder if they will add choppers for this... at least a little bird for each team.

I was able to do it easier with Contrast but it took longer with Resogun as it wasn't being labeled as free at first. At least now they both appear in my Purchase History.
 
So I'll be getting a PS4 when TESO comes out.... or when I feel the urge to buy a PS4 the month before PS4 Slim comes out.

Man I can't wait for N++! Its in the PS store listings and I got excited only to find out its just the trailer I wont even wait for it to be free on PS+ when it comes out. I got $10 in credit for buying the launch edition PS4 so that would take care of most of it. And the game is being made by a team of 3 people, so I don't mind contributing to their cause for a game that I love but tortures me with its insanity.

I love the SCAR-H so much right now, It will be a while before i try out the M416 which was my hands down favorite in BF3... I'm getting back in form..
 

 

 

 
I took down a group of 3 with one mag in the SCAR-H... this is insane... Squad Wipe ribbons FTW!

I think Drive Club was the only partial game for PS+, all the others are all full games. I think more of the games in the future will have DLC for sale which is why the core game will be free.. with hundreds of thousands or millions of people getting a game for free, only a percentage of that has to buy DLC for it to make it worth it for the game developers.
 
Its stupid that Contrast is only free for PS4 when its also available on PS3. During this overlap of game availability from old generation to new generation, we might see this happen again.
 
btw, as far as I know, you should be able to add those PS4 games to your account. The PSN store on PS3 will show you the PS3 and Vita games but not PS4.. but if you go to Sony Entertainment's site you can log into your PSN account there and then add to cart all the PS4 games. As long as you have PS+ you should be able to build up a PS4 collection of games so when you eventually get a PS4 you'll have a large library of titles waiting for you.

@DX Thanks for the heads up about Contrast. Some games are too short for the price they cost. I don't expect to get 20 hours out of a game anymore, but if a game is entertaining enough to last 5-6 hours then it might be worth the price of a 2 movie tickets for the same amount of time = money. But with the selection of games out there, $15 could be spent on some damn better games for the price.

Thats too funny. I didn't even know you could romance Carth. If I get around to playing this a second time, I'll play as a dark side woman so I can lead Carth on and then crush his heart if I can.

ROTFLMAO... and the thing is, if you're wearing turtles you cant hear a damn thing outside of the headphone.... so wtf are you doing playing damn music?! I missed a text from a friend wanting to know if I wanted to grab something to eat once because I was marathoning BO2 one day... I felt like a dick because I didn't see it until 2 hours after.

Yes! lmao! That was my entire experience with COD.
 
I don't know how BF3 was on xbox 360, but on PS3 everyone was used to not talking to each other. I'd usually see 1 or 2 people with mics on. Hell, I was so used to BF3 not keeping me on the same squad with my friends that I never bothered to even sync a bluetooth headset to the system. I'd just call my brothers on the phone in a three way call and play that way. It worked out better for us, especially if one of us lost connection or got banned. With the PS3 not having a party chat, we'd potentially loose communication far too often so we never even tried using the BF3 voice chat. It wouldn't surprise me if hardly anyone on PS4's BF4 even voice chats.. however it was a different case on COD Black ops 2. Everyone talked on that damn game. Randomly talking about everything except the game. No strategy, just annoying talking, eating sounds, yelling, or music. One time I thought I heard a urine stream and a toilet flush.. but no hand washing sounds.. ewww.. wtf.

Well there is no lobby like COD so i can be slurred between each match . PlayStation 3 didn't come with a mic, and I take it not a lot of people are use to talking because I haven't heard a peep from anyone yet on BF. Its definitely going to be a culture change within the community. Which is cool, when I'm playing with people I don't know I mute my mic anyways... and on COD normally someone else with turtles was playing solja boy in the background and their mic was picking it all up as they munched on chips, breathed heavily, and/or constantly cleared their throat ever 2 seconds.

For Assault the AK-12 was ok, but now that I have the SCAR-H its beats mode time... I have to put it back on ironsights, the RDS really sucks, I'll wait for the holo sight and try it out. The dot on the RDS gets lost in bright colors easily.... and there are plenty of vibrant colors in this game. FYI you can see you legs when you jump over objects like on PC in the PS4 version as I assumed before. This is actually helpful because when you are on a ledge looking down, you can see where your feet are at and know how much closer you can get before falling.
 
A few more notes

1. Parachuting has reverted back to BF2 style... you can jump off a building and deploy quickly and land with no damage... this frustrated me in BF3... yeah thats more realistic, but I liked this system better. I did an epic jump and land behind a squad defending a flag on domination and destroyed them all in epic fashion.
 
2. Swapping to pistol is a lot faster, and I'm glad. You start out with the Walther p228 and its a beast. It fires as fast as I can lay in to the PS4 trigger button. It takes about 4-5 shots to kill someone center mass, but you can fire it so fast, it doesnt take a lot of time.
 
3. Defibrillators... man has this changed.. In BFBC2 and in BF3 you could spam the shit out of these and revive someone quick... not anymore... you now have to wait for the 1-2 second animation of you rubbing the defibs together before hitting your team/squad mate... this has thrown me off so bad.. I'd try to run by a downed teammate and end up missing them completely because I was banking on hitting them with the defibs instantly when pressing the button... nope, you have to stand over them and wait for the animation to play out. Its more realistic and you take more of a gamble when reviving someone now.. I've been killed a lot trying to do so. 
 
4. On PS4 there must be a lot of COD players that don't know that every level has multiple floors. You can climb some ladders above these flags on dominations and rain down grenades and bullets on people trying to cap them. I've caught people just standing behind crates like they couldn't be seen and lit them up from a rafter. Very few times did someone come up and try to get me.
 
5. Using higher end Turtle Beach headsets with Dolby is incredible but overwhelming at the same time.... Hearing footsteps, and gunshots is wild... but running and hearing bullets zip by and hit the wall is astonishing. It can make you panic for sure because you don't hear these subtle noises from the TV speakers... heck you can ever listen you your solider rustle through the grass on some maps.

I saw the trailer for it on steam a while back and it looks like fun. Its good to see the PS+ membership is still giving out decent games.
 
The PS+ free games is a great deal. I read this article earlier in the year and could barely believe it:
 
 
http://www.gamerevolution.com/news/year-one-of-playstation-plus-value-in-free-games-185486-20143
 

I saw this game on Kotaku and it peaked my interest because it's puzzle platforming reminds me a little bit of limbo. The story is interesting so far and the gameplay is unique... the game it self has its bugs, but I can't complain since it was free via PS+. I love the 20s era theme.

Halo as a multilayer competitive FPS was never that great to me, but as a co-op PVE game it could be amazing. Halo's solo campaigns were awesome and epic, and the last games' Spartan Ops was pretty cool. I think Bungie found their true calling with Destiny. I remember playing Halo 3's campaign on co-op and having an absolute blast with friends. I hope they keep similar physics as far as gravity and movement goes.

Ok. after I figured out my L3 button actually did work this is what I know about PS4 BF4.
 
I have only played as engineer class because the gun was so shitty in the beta, I'm trying to get past it.
 
1. Guns kill MW2 fast.. wow.. this is so different for BF, I dont know what to think. You use to have to hold your sight on a target for a good 1.5-3 seconds on a target to drop them and expend a good amount of bullets. I complained when COD went to this method because it was suppose to be fast paced. Either its just SMGs or these franchises have flip flopped... there is still a chance DICE may nerf stuff, but I think it could be a sign of what to expect in Battlefront. I was getting dropped fast by assault rifles so I will say for now. Guns kill wicked fast. If you don't like it, get use to it.
 
2. The littlebird is fucking deadly.... I was playing with it in test range and its maneuverability is off the charts compared to BF3... Its minigun is way more powerful and accurate... again I think this equates to guns kill faster... that doesn't apply to other vehicles though. It took a good 2-4 cool downs to take out a pratice drone. I need to get this in a real match.
 
3. This game is beautiful. My TV only runs in 720p, and it looks great.
 
4. Weapons start out with optics
 
5. Premium members are treated to battlepacks, you open them one at a time and get a random slew of goodies. They seem to come out every month. I got some gun camos, 1 hour 50% more xp, a new knife, and some emblem options.
 
6. DICE seemed to forgoe BF3's soldier loadout on the title screen and reverted back to BFBC2 where you have to do it in game.. you can probably do it via battlelog as well, but I haven't checked. I don't like this, but I dont hate it I guess.
 
7. Even though I've done it for years on COD. having O/B instead of R1 for knife is throwing me off so bad... I guess I wasn't a big melee person in COD, but I was in BF. I've blasted a few snipers from behind just to level up my gun... i passed on dog tags.. lol
 
8. I acutally like the Sony's control layout better.. mostly because the D pad has always been superior.
 
9. PS4's triggers are a dream. 360 triggers are awesome, but PS4 really stole from it and found a way to make it "luxurious". The curvature of the buttons just feel right.

At Sony's PS4 Launch event Bungie revealed that the beta for Destiny will be available for PS3 and PS4 first. As MS scores first access to DLC for COD and BF4 first, its apparent that Bungie is making a statement and MS cannot dish out enough cash for them to shy away from their new 3rd party territory in the PS4 user base.

Here is a look at The Last of Us up coming DLC prequel which will focus on Ellie.

The way I would expect it to go, with how AoD finished out in the S-Mart ("Shop smart; Shop S-Mart!") I see it being a combination of the darker look of Evil Dead 3, but with a bit more of the campy goofiness of AoD...that way they could tie in the Mia/Ash stories. Have her get to the town, headed to the hospital and kill a deadite or two, only to run into Ash. He fixes her with a prosthetic hand to match his and off the movie goes. Or have Ash head-off a deadite army and end with him semi retired until he 'feels' the book get read again...hence his "Groovy." at the end of the new Evil Dead film...
But that's just my opinion.

Not much outside of a tease is shown in the video, but it shouldn't come as a surprise that PS4 will be getting some exclusive treatment from Hideo Kojima... after all, PS2 did put him on the map for one of the most epic Video Game Franchise of all time in Metal Gear Solid.
