    I don't doubt the terminal idea for a second. We'll all just rent space on massive cloud servers.

    Can't wait for a clever hacker to build a learning AI that takes control of them one day. ITZ

    It won't unless everyone drops everything and starts laying fibre everywhere. The combined latency and throughput requirements on everyone playing games running on the cloud at the same time are insane. Especially for the US, with their third-world infrastructure.

    Australia would collectively stop existing on the game front. Any country with bandwidth limitations. Shit, still sounds barbaric to me.

    I preordered the game today. It's probably going to take a while after March 11th to get here though. I'm pretty excited.

    I struggled to like Demons and DS way more than I actualy liked them, way to twitchy for my tastes, would like to see turn based combat.

    Anyway, back on topic -- I figure they need to announce the PC release sometime this week. Can't imagine they'd wait until after the console release for that.

    New pictures of some bosses, their trophy images. Amazing art direction ahead.

    Speculation time: I wonder if the masked boss is the real King Vendrick, with the other one being somehow false, like the whole deal with Allant in Demon's Souls.

    It's easy: Look at screenshots of shitty console version, and then look at the IGN reveal footage that showed the PC version.

    I think at this point, everyone knows that games WILL leak at least a week before release date because of retailers. Curiously enough however, stuff like this didn't happen 5 years ago, I wonder why that was? Maybe videogames just weren't as culturally significant back then, but now, with Youtube LP'ers having to compete with each other in releasing the first walkthroughs of big games, it's gonna happen now, especially considering how cutthroat and competitive that whole Adsense LP community is.

    The dude in the reddit thread said that it's just a press copy and that he signed NDAs and shit.

    Actually I remember some leaks that long ago from retailers. I remember hearing stories of people getting games from retailers early that long ago and I remember a youtube video of someone who got COD MW2 early and traded it in at gamestop before it even came out and he got $23 for it.
