This is what excites me so far: Kojima and Duillermo del Toro to reinvent Silent Hill.

Unclear as to whether it's a ps4 exclusive.  If it is... well, we'll see, but it might make it tempting to get one. 

The gameplay from the demo is pretty creepy.  I like the atmosphere, as it's a little more subtle than some of more recent iterations (a little).  Haven't found a complete play through yet though.  When I do I'll post it.  It's first person, but I wonder if the whole game will be in first person.

Looks awesome, not buy a PS4 awesome, but awesome.

I hope it's buy a ps4 awesome.  I'd do it for a good silent hill game.  I don't expect it to be as good as silent hill 2, but even if it was as good as 'the room' I'd consider getting a ps4.

I would buy a PS4 or XBOX if Fallout 4 was exclusive to one, and I'd be pissed about it.

No way in HELL Bethesda's stupid enough to do that. Neither Sony or Microsoft could pay them enough to undo the PR DISASTER it would be to have FO4 as a console exclusive.

I completely agree, mostly hypothetical. That being said, IP's do change hands often and great franchisers have been destroyed by "suites".

I completely agree. And that is the only game, too.

Well, you'd think so, and so would I. But than again were very much alike mister Lembach.

35 minutes of Witcher 3 gameplay.  Drool.  Looks so freaking good.  I was worried that making it an open world game would take away from the best part of the Witcher 2, which was the story and characters, but nope.  If anything the story, voice acting and characters seem even better, which is something you just don't see in games very often.  And the writing is good too.  I love how Johnny had a little creepy song that he sings, and that the woman talked through the painting.  Little touches that make the world feel rich and interesting. 

Oh, and going in and out of any door without a loading screen?  In fact, going anywhere without a loading screen?  Amazing.

And Twitch has indeed been sold, but to Amazon, not Google/Youtube as many had been suggesting. Which is probably good as Amazon is a little less evil than Youtube has been in recent years.

There was a Smash Bros 4 character list leak. Most people wrote it off as a photoshop, but apparently it's been all but confirmed. Sakurai's apparently really pissed about it.
