    Sony won't let you delete PSN ids? Wtf?

    Until your alias goes back into the available pool of account names and someone else registers it.

    The Annual E3 Sony press conference thread, 2017 edition

    I beg to differ. Devolver had the only presentation of any substance. After that the rest were like punctured balloons spewing stale air. At the very least I expected something about PSN performance upgrades, changes to make PS+ more compelling, OS feature updates for the PS4, some sort of...

    Your Top 10 games of 2016

    Don't think I can personally come up with 10 games worthy of being on a "top 10" list though I have yet to play Last Guardian or anything beyond the demo for DOOM. Of the PS4 games I have played it's mostly indies for the win: Stardew Valley (GOTY for me) Don't Starve Together Dragon Quest...

    Battlefield 1

    The core game is better than BF4 but the actual product is close to being as buggy and still has annoyances carried over. Last night I had 3 times where the tank I was driving just disappeared, dropping me and my passengers wherever. Spotting is a mess, unpredictable. Lag compensation...

    Battlefield 1

    "DDOS" likely is just a codeword for "the beta is popular" and "DICE". This is what every BF launch since BF3 has been like. DICE is either incapable or unwilling to foot the cost of having enough infrastructure to deal with load at launch. BF4 was a mess for pretty much the first year...

    No Man's Sky [PS4, PS5, XO, XBSX|S, PC, NX, XGP]

    You can scrap upgrades in the ships which is likely how he got the rare resources. Gotta admit I sympathize with him in that when you find a planet with lots of resources, easy going sentinels and an easy source of cash (vortex cubes) it is hard to resist the urge to go on a looting frenzy. I...

    The Tomorrow Children

    The beta was pretty weak, performance poor and the overall experience confusing. Making this F2P pretty much kills any interest I had in it, screw shyster economics.

    No Man's Sky [PS4, PS5, XO, XBSX|S, PC, NX, XGP]

    The navigation system is currently a bit of a mess, not sure if that is a case of performance being a problem (so it was intentionally nerfed) or just lack of time to fully implement it. I am constantly finding myself unsure which points of interest I have been to already and often I will end up...

    No Man's Sky [PS4, PS5, XO, XBSX|S, PC, NX, XGP]

    You can't destroy metal doors or containers with your mining beam sadly, at least I haven't found a way to do so. Perhaps there is a powerup that allows it but then I have would have to destroy an upgrade anyway to slot it in. I get they want to place limits but I think it would have been...

    No Man's Sky [PS4, PS5, XO, XBSX|S, PC, NX, XGP]

    Sadly that is not useful advice for the multi-tool since almost immediately you will have its paltry 5 slots maxed out. I keep having to destroy my blaster so I can mine more efficiently. Not being able to browse recipes without a free slot is dumb.

    ABZU [PS4, PC]

    This game makes my PS4 sound like it is either about to take off or explode. Very pretty though.

    No Man's Sky [PS4, PS5, XO, XBSX|S, PC, NX, XGP]

    Nice to see the game is actually going to come out. On the other hand, that's a sad snapshot of "software development" == "sausage party". Not sure why but I expected something different from that crew.

    What are you playing now? (console edition) [2011 - 2017]

    Playing far too much couch co-op of the uber janky, technical tire fire known as "7 Days To Die" on the PS4. For being such a terrible mess of a port (stuttering frame rate, crashes, progress losing bugs, messed up sound, etc.), it still is really addictive.

    What are your future platform purchase plans post E3 2016?

    Totally disinterested in the Neo until Sony relaxes the licensing such that my wife can play on the second console under her account without having to rebuy our games (it worked fine last gen with our two PS3s).

    Who Won E3 2016?

    Um, I think you mean Microsoft won "vapourware". At best their proposed new console is a paper release at this point.
