Only next gen is able to handle the heavy load of a batboy/girl

I also hope that they move to a newer system about purchasing the yearly releases. Granted the insane work that they put into The Show deserves a lot of money, I think that having a discounted upgrade option for those that bought the prior years (who knows even better discounts for successive years of purchasing the game). Even if it was $40 bucks, it would be nice. Maybe it could be something only applicable from this year on and only if you purchase the digital version.

Just a thought.

Still so damn shitty on Sony's part as well as SCEA, who made this game, that they can't create a patch for external HDD recognition, which means NO Sounds of the Show for the PS4 version.

I would think it would be easy for the gaming development section of Sony could say "Guys, this part of the game is very key to our gamers, could we get a patch going on this?"

I'll be sticking with the PS3 version for another year.
