Yeah, I've tried that. Turns out no one cares. Shit, even when #PS4NoDRM was going on my podcast was getting about 350 listens a week.... lol.
that sucks man.... I hope you get some luck in the future though

It does indeed, but Ami's description is a completely different game, so who knows.
Everybodys Gone to the Rapture, our new game, is our attempt to answer that question, and I want to tell you a little about it.
Like Dear Esther, the new game is all about the story. It uses simple gameplay basic exploration of a first-person world so its very friendly to people without a lot of game experience. But its not casual in the classic sense this is a deep and immersive game.
Its all about the end of the world. You play the role of a scientist, trapped in the very second of the apocalypse, and the game is about discovering what has happened. You do this by exploring a large open-world environment, and interacting with the objects, places and people you find to gradually unlock and put together the story.
Theres also a really cool thing you can do which makes the game really different and makes this process of exploring the story something you could only do in a game, but were keeping that secret for now. Expect a reveal about that in due course, but were very excited about it and cant wait to show it off.

You buy a console for the 6-7 year generation that comes with it. You don't buy it to play 2 games at launch.
Yeah. It's a double edged sword. When news people want out comes around I'm told it, negative stuff I'm not told as much anymore (though i did hear this... now by multiple people btw). But, at the same time, the more shit I get right the more other people who know stuff start talking to me. So it's like a rich gets richer kinda thing which is somewhat unfair but hey I'll take it.
But, like, when I went through that horrible shit earlier this year and was down in the dumps it gets weird trying to figure out who actually likes you as a human and who just wants info about stuff.
It's weird. When i started "leaking" things it was in the very close-knit vita thread and I never really saw it turning into this. #ps4nodrm was probably one of the cooler non-family/children things I'll do in my life.
It's also nervewracking because not only do I not want to be wrong in front of so many people... but I also don't want to be banned. So each time I say something that ends up high profile like this im on edge until it's official.
Hey, his description might be closer. Honestly I only am going off my memory of how they described it, I fucking hate Dear Esther and the new concept does not sound more appealing to me lol

It's what I'd imagine Rob Hubbard & Sandy Crowther would've come up with on a C-64 if they'd collaborated on a soundtrack.
PS4 has such a huge lineup of games does it really matter if Drive Club gets delayed to ensure it will eventually bea quality release?
I mean there is always Killzone 4, Knack, Contrast, War Frame, and Resogun. Not even mentioning 3rd party stuff like Assasins Creed 4, NFS Rivals, and military shooters galore.

This reminds me of the Wii U and the pikmin3 delay. But if it's anything like that, you guys are in for a damn good game cause pikmin is a damn good game.

Huh? I think Sword of Doom was asking about Rapture, not Rime.

What? No. All four PGR games scored "close to" 90% on MC (which I still don't know why we're talking about it, it's a blight on the gaming industry IMO). You're saying DC won't get close to 90%, where the majority of games in it's pedigree are literally "close to" it.You are arguing that this game will be as good as the best PGR game, which was in 2003, and you want to put Drive Club on the same pedestal as Gran Turismo, Forza and Mario Kart.
I echo the same sentiments. With the exception of FM5. Apart from looking better, it's literally not doing anything that the series hasn't done before. And yeah, this delay (if true) *is* enough to put me off getting a PS4 at launch... there's simply no benefit in me getting one that early (and I'll probably save ~$100 purely by waiting anyway). There's no other exclusive racer that interests me on that console (is there even another one? Might be a different story if they hadn't shut down Studio Liverpool, the fuckers) so in the meantime I'll just be happy to be lost amongst all the PC sims that are out right now or will be in a month or two.It matters if that was your most anticipated launch game on the system.
I know racing games aren't as popular as shooters, but there are all kinds of gamers, and there are many of us who prefer racing games over any other genre. We many not have the numbers compared to CoD players but we're still significant. Maybe we're less likely to post in general games forums, I don't know, but there's no reason to dismiss our likes too.
I'm very disappointed I won't be playing DriveClub. I've had doubts about it since we didn't have car v car footage. But it's still a blow to my excitement of the PS4 launch. As I said earlier I'll still be getting a PS4 - but it'll likely be my second system until more racers come along.
This evening I have thought about cancelling the pre-order and waiting for DC or some other cool racer on the platform to be released. I have decided to keep it. But it's still soured my view of the PS4 launch.
I am very excited about getting my hands on Forza 5. And I'll be getting the LCE at launch. A week later I'll be getting my PS4 with Killzone and no doubt enjoying it for what it is. But I expect I'll be heading back to Forza fairly quickly. Whereas DC would have likely held my attention.
I'm platform agnostic. And perhaps my love of racing games makes me a minority among the many of you who are all about shooters and open world games. But it seems damn odd to have a platform launch without a proper racing game exclusive.
I started this post wanting to make a point, but my mind has wandered off into remembering the PS3 launch and I've forgotten what it was.
Oh, really. You really said that to someone.
People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
"Ah ohhh...sounds like someones unsure about his pre-order!"
"PS4 lineup is weak, Xbox One has a nice lineup though."
"Which of these indie launch games look "truly awesome" to you?"
On top of this stuff, you were just in that xbox one thread yesterday about the free dedicated servers saying things like
despite saying
on the console power. This is all found within the last 2 pages of your post history, and I don't even care to look more into it.
Now you're in this thread calling people Xbots.
"A delayed game is eventually good; a bad game is bad forever."
You are correct, I misread the post, sorry.
Driveclub tears still making it hard to function it seems
Please.

All for just gameplay. That's most than a lot of other next gen exclusive games, minus maybe Killzone.

I know what you're trying to say, but you're trying to predict as equally bad a result for DC based on Metacritic as I am a good one based on review sites I trust. Neither of us are going to win this argument, but in my own personal aggregate review system I'm confident it will be AAA.
And I certainly won't be comparing it to Mario Kart. Not in any capacity.
Really sucks if true as my original plans were to pick up a PS4 with Watch Dogs and the PS+ edition of this to last me a few months.
Probably will cancel if it is confirmed, couldn't care less about indies or shooters sadly.
I keep hearing different versions of this, but how much of the game (DC) would we have gotten on PS plus for free? And would it have been permanent? Or a crappy 1 hour demo?
I waited to respond to your post, because now this thread has surpassed every DC thread you posted in mere span of a few hours. Whereas it took 3 weeks for the GamesCom gameplay thread to hit 41 replies.
So even if we use GAF as some sort metric to this game's popularity, its simply not true that its a major title. You simply tried to blow this up to be bigger than it really is, for obvious reasons. The fact that you put "minus maybe Killzone" is ridiculous. Killzone is their big first party release like Forza is Microsofts. If either of those 2 were delayed, that would be a blow worth raising a storm over.
Wow, its getting hot in here. This thread is delivering on all bases. Honestly, I will not be surprised when it gets closed down in the next 24 hours or so, or at least until this rumor is confirmed. Also, I feel sorry for BISH, he is going to have a long night ahead, trying to purge some of our favorite users after many comments in this thread. I predict a sad night for some of our fellow Gaffers.
BACK ON TOPIC! I think we really need to wait and see what happens. This hasn't been confirmed, its an anonymous source, nobody has really heard of this website, RUSHY is at home with his precious newborn. We will know within 24 hours if this is true, then everyone can jump off cliffs, others can point at them and laugh, and a majority of Gaf users can say "well, that's unfortunate" and move on to getting hyped for what IS actually launching this year.
Yeah, I've tried that. Turns out no one cares. Shit, even when #PS4NoDRM was going on my podcast was getting about 350 listens a week.... lol.
I think the ultimate test is if NeoGAF goes down.
NeoGAF didn't go down after Drive Club news, it did with Watch Dogs.

Yeah, but prior to the delay, a lot of GAF was going on about how terrible Watchdogs was looking in the recent videos. A whole lot of "preorder cancelled" posts, just like in this thread.Thats a good way to measure it, id say Watch Dogs being delayed is a massive blow, to both consoles. Its one of the most talked about next gen games. Its a game i would call "AAA", despite the term being used loosely and everyone having their own meaning behind what it really means.
