        That’s cheap compared to most AAA releases though?

        Yeah sorry, you’re right! I didn’t realize it was also a physical release. I ended up getting it on PS4 because 1080p vs 900p again, and got 20% off thanks to Gamerclub AND a $10 gift card I wasn’t even expecting. So $21 before tax? Heck yeah! I’m picking it up tonight.

        How the heck can people buy day 1 digital when you get retail deals like THAT?

        Also they used the theme song from the 1987 animated Transformers movie during their trailer, so I was SOLD! LOL

        Eventually any game across both consoles will be 1080p, look at Destiny, was 1080p, 30fps across both PS4 and Xbox One. Hopefully we will see similar specks on newer games now that MS had unlocked the Resources reserved for the kinect for developers.

        Yeah, but unfortunately unlocking the resources won’t be enough to bridge the gap entirely,because the fact of the matter is the PS4 had more GPU strength in its hardware and poor MS miscalculated in their design. Hopefully never again so I can be a full Xbox fan again.

        Man, I wish they would release the Xbox 4k already, lol. That would actually be awesome. 4th Xbox, and is able to output 4k gwafics.

        I agree 100%! I’d love to go all digital and I’m sure the studios would as well but as long as physical retail has such better deals I can’t do it. I mean bestbuy gives you 20% off all games plus $10 gift card/store credit for most pre-orders. I end up trading in and going digital when deals with gold comes around for my games but otherwise I’d be paying a 30% premium to go Digital from day one. No thank you.

    Maybe they should have picked an acronym that most people don’t associate with “English as a Second Language”.

      when you start as a small league 15 years ago, you don’t plan and think about stuff like that😉

        That’s the trouble with people. Never thinking about the bigger picture.

        That’s why it started out as ESPL (Electronic Sports League), way way way back and a completely german only league with no intention of being something else, but for several reasons it ended up here now. Yes, we all agree something else would have been better, but the 90s were different times online😉
