Infinity Ward ops to show PS4 footage for COD IGN vids- a series first since MS deal?

So now we have to look on twitter? When did censorship come to GAF? Free pussy riot! But really, this secretive behaviour is getting annoying.
 
It's crazy how much people hinge on little words from people in twitter like all the details can be dissected in 20 pages threads and everything is a megaton.

Look out, here comes some more bad news according to anyone who wants to think of it as bad.
It is a bit ridiculous.

Someone can just post some attention whore tweet like "uh oh." and those four letters will have people stewing for pages.

Mass hysteria when something is actually confirmed and unambiguous, sure. Go nuts. Mass hysteria over stupid indecipherable back and forths on twitter from people like Kevin "I consulted on Infinity Blade" Dent (Mark Rein: No you didn't). Bleh.
 
Thanks guys for all the replies! I think I'm going to see what else comes out in the next few days. They both told me today that they don't care for the TV features. They do want to see how the PS4 controller feels. I told them some places already have them, but do you guys know if Gamestop will be having demo stations before release?
 
Just saw Thuways other post. Wow.

I doubt mods are gonna let him share that.

I dislike how active the mods have gotten. This is a discussion board, not an editorial/critical website, and yet the mods are acting like editors to an extent.

Let people post what they want as far as rumors are concerned and let their track record define their trustworthiness and reputation.

Then again, I'm more of a small government kind of guy. I'm sure that many members prefer the strict rules and oversight!

It came here when we decided we aren't Reddit, B3D or 4CHAN. Going to post up some bombs? They better be truthbombs.

Well I think it's more to do with needing definitive proof. Gaf can't be known as a place for spreading bullshit.

I mean, more so ;)

I am thinking that this whole mega panic will be DRM related. Maybe Activision (and Ubisoft most likely) will enforce some sort of always-online/anti-used game policy for all their games on all platforms.

On some level letting free reign works, but it works for some members. If you leave it open for all, you can have people do nothing but stir shit with bogus claims. Staff here is perhaps very picky to prevent that sort of brew making, hence why they want sources before people say things.

To be fair, I don't think they want GAF to be known as the center of bad info from insiders. There's a certain responsibility in (a) claiming your an insider, and (b) spreading info that isn't corroborated by other sources.

No way, things should definitely be screened or else what would separate us from like misterxmedia's blog where apparently everyone is an insider.

I personally do not care for the oversight unless it has to do with flaming or trolling, but I do think that since GAF has no ties to any of these companies people should be able to share rumors. Then again maybe I am just wishful thinking. Please don't ban me :(.

Lots of bollocks & rumors going around the industry right now, lots of people rightly pissed as well. Someone is dropping the ball big time

:/ I really think this is Youtube related.

Problem is, people tend to jump on whatever rumor they like the most. Not necessarily the most believable or reliable one. Because of that, outright lies can quickly gain momentum and turn the forum into a source of misinformation.

Disagree. The reason I read here is because what I read here (at least the insider claims) has been vetted by the mods. Without that vetting...

So the big news is really absolutely nothing
(Just a feeling?)

I will be surprised if bf4 runs at all on either next gen console

I don't care about resolutions anymore, I just have seen too much of that stuff. I do think what is going on with xb1 is telling, but I'll care more next year after launch has passed.

I am curious though about that all these journalists are hinting at though I still think it has to do with review consoles/games being delayed.

It seems to me though that the journalists typically favoring Xbox are the ones mostly upset so I think it IS xb1 related.

Edit: I really hope people get back on topic because I want this discussion to continue.

How can it be about the PS4 all of a sudden? Wtf is going on?

According to a tweet that doesn't specify PS4. But go ahead, let's run it as it's official. Or you can use some rationality and don't let all this constant posting and tension of new console launches temper you the wrong way.
