    You don't notice it until you play on something better. I didn't. I called it "lag" when I clearly got out of something and it still killed me. It was PS3 driving the struggle bus.

    Um, no. I just played the PS4 Beta PH2 and I played the same exact way and had no issues. I did not lag, I did not feel gimped, I noticed not much of a difference really. Except the true beauty of it in 1080! So chalk it up to skill, yup skill.

    True lag, sure that happens, I'll grant you that.

    They're already trying to phase it out PS3 by giving you an opportunity to upgrade to PS4 version for free before the end of the year. It is likely that we may see a phase out about 6 months into the first expansion if the PS4 numbers start drastically taking over the PS3. I say 6 months as we don't know if the first expansion would auto upgrade along with the base game to the PS4. If the upgrade system applied to expansions, I could see it in 3 months depending on PS4 numbers then.

    If the PS3 numbers were less than 10% of the user total, I could see a justification to phase it out with ample warning (3 months in advance at the very minimum) and an incentive to upgrade like transferring licences of the base game and expansion to either platform. Until it is a very, VERY small minority, it just wouldn't be a smart move to throw away a huge chunk of change by phasing out subscribing PS3 players.
