    To be fair, I think you are over simplifying why they got excoriated.

        Yeah Groupon items tend to take a while to receive.

          There are ways to do it without being draconian about it to your consumers, it will just take a bit of work and not being lazy saying "take it or leave it."

          There was a lot there, but in order to have full digital like Steam you need a DRM similar to Steam. I agree that the online check-in stuff was different, but either way these companies can't be having people stealing games. Even Steam forces you to log in more.

          We don't have to get into this discussion, I just personally believe Sony won't get even at all close to restricting anything a user does in fear of ending up like MS. Plus they make more money charging tons for digital, so why change?

          IMO the MS ecosystem was pretty close to what we were all asking for, but instead of allowing them to adapt or tweak everyone set fire to them. Not sure if/when we'll see things move back towards this now after MS handled their business so poorly.

            The biggest wall to mass online digital distribution is a literal brick wall.

              Some cool (indie) games being announced for PS4 today. Some of them are already available on other platforms, though:

              KickBeat and CastleStorm

              Aztec
              Home

              Aztec looks exceptionally cool:

                You are right there...the brick/mortar stores can't do the same sales that digital do, for whatever reason....

                Hopefully they figure it out.

                    Ah well, it's still a great game at pretty much any price.

                      Aztec



                      In Aztez, you expand and maintain the Aztec empire through turn-based strategy, while managing violent outbreaks via real-time beat 'em up sequences. Every game is unique; different events will occur, different challenges will emerge, and different spoils will be taken each time you play. Spread, strengthen, subjugate!
                      Hi! I’m Ben Ruiz, the artist and combat designer at Team Colorblind in Arizona. I’m super excited to announced that Aztez, the brutal, bloody, expressive, difficult, and replayable action game I’ve been working on for two years now is coming to Sony’s magnificent, next-gen beast machines. For your own information, Team Colorblind is myself and also Matthew Wegner.

                      “Brutal, bloody, expressive, difficult, and replayable?!” is probably what you’re thinking as your eyes widen in the dim glow of my audacity. But I sincerely believe that we are cooking up something you will like!

                      At its core, Aztez is two games. One of those games is a full on real-time beat ‘em up combat experience. We’ve piped in the feel and creativity of Bayonetta, the sensationalism and mobility of Capcom’s Alien Vs Predator, and the precision difficulty of classic Devil May Cry.

                      As the combat designer, I’ve been studying these types of games for years, and I refuse to produce and hand you something that won’t dangerously raise your heart rate and dopamine levels. I grew up in the arcade, and I want to do for you what the amazing developers of yore did for me with their coin-ops.

                      The other game that comprises Aztez is an empire management strategy game, and that’s where the aforementioned replayability comes from. We decided early on that we didn’t want to make another beat ‘em up that forces you through a linear narrative and rote platforming segments, so we’ve created what we feel is an infinitely more interesting vehicle for thrilling combat; a randomised, historical Risk-like. Haha!

                      It might be an overly unusual combination, but the way we see it, it can’t be any worse than grabbing more ledges or pushing around more blocks. And besides, if you do well in our strategy game, you might get to do some pretty profound history rewriting.

                      But, ultimately, Aztez is about the combat, and we want to make our mark on this generation of Sony consoles with our own signature brand of digital power fantasy, and we want you to be able to do it in your home or on the move. Nothing makes the bus/taxi ride to work better than cutting down a hundred legendary warriors and offering their blood to the gods in real time.

                      That’s it for now! Tell me what you think about all this and I’ll answer back in the least ridiculous way I know how. Which is still sort of ridiculous. I MEAN WELL.

                                PS3 question here. I just went down to my basement and saw that my PS3 was on. My son must have turned it on earlier today while I was at work. He likes to push the XMB button. Called my mom who was babysitting today and asked her when they were in the basement and she said around noon. So I'm pretty pissed to find out that my PS3 had been running for over 10 hours. I'm assuming this isn't a good thing. Should I be worried?
