You'd never see micro$oft doing something like this. LOL They want to sell you all new stuff every time. This is yet another example of how Sony understands the gamer's market much better than micro$oft. Go Sony!!!!!

LMAO! @ abzdine.... Funny sh!t.

I didn't pay attention at the time. Nice one, but I rarely use mine anyway.

Sitdown4708d ago

Apparently I didn't either, but good to know... and glad they will be compatible.

DarkBlood4708d ago

nice, maybe my psmove will get some used i only ever tried it out with re5 as far as i remeber thinking it would be like re4 wii edition and it just didnt stick with me so i went back to the dualshock3 with great relief i might say.

hopfully its more smooth with ps4 games if its easy enough that is

ArchangelMike4708d ago

well seeing as the DS4 has a light bar on it, I'm not sure devs will go the extra mile for the PS Move. I mean, they didn't in this generation, why should they bother next gen?

mcstorm4708d ago

The other issue you have is the PS eye is not sold with every PS4 console so even less developers will look at move or even the DS4 light bar. This is one advantage the WiiU and Xbox one have over the PS4 in terms of motion control. But that said im sure the 1st party games will use it in some cool ways.

TimeSkipLuffy4708d ago

@mcstorm I actually think it is an advantage. Since it is really optional the chance it is mandatory for games is almost 99% while the others... since it comes with the console, the chance they force motion control is higher.
And after playing Wii and Kinect... I'm have to say I'd rather stick to a controller :3
But, of course, that is my choice and preference.

andibandit4708d ago (Edited 4708d ago )

@ArchangelMike

As a developer you arent interested in spending ressources on something that only 25% of your target audience can use.

As soon as that number starts going below 100%, it becomes a "Nice to have feature" and gets cut away if deadlines are getting hard to meet.
OR it gets tacked on to the product just so publishers can slap a "Works with Kinect/PSMove" tag on it.

mcstorm4708d ago

@NightmareLuffy I have to disagree it is not an Advantage. Move is a really good device but was over looked by most of the 3rd party's this gen and it will be next to.

Hicken4708d ago

Even with it being a mandatory part of the console, that doesn't mean developers want to spend any extra time and money making concessions for it. They could just as easily tack some stuff on with the mandatory Kinect as the optional PS4Eye.

In the end, it boils down to whether or not they WANT to use the device.

and suddenly motion capture gaming is good even though i've seen YOU specifically complaining about how motion controls are gimmicks -_-

slazer1014708d ago

Good to know Sony is not going to nickle and dime us with proprietary peripherals.

I would like to know if the PSeye for PS3 will also work for the PS4. In theory it should being it works with usb. But I guess they would have to include the drivers for it.

DJMarty4708d ago

@slazer101 - The new PS4 camera runs off a dedicated port, so it don't use the USB's. Hence why the PS3 camera, I believe won't work on PS4.

slazer1014708d ago (Edited 4708d ago )

Yeah I know that the PS4 camera is proprietary. Just wondering because the PS4 has USB ports also. One can hope right. Lol

Nawert4708d ago

Sony just add an analog stick to the main Move controller and I will love you!

wsoutlaw874708d ago

That was really the only thing bad about the move. You cant use 2 moves in sword or boxing games and still walk around.

Nawert4708d ago

Thank you for agreeing. Would make for much easier gameplay in games.

dodo1014708d ago

Nice i just bought the sharpshooter works great with KZ3!
I hope KZ shadowfall support it 2.
It just takes a little time to get used to it.

bjmartynhak4708d ago

Yeah! It was my only use for the move.
I just had to use a support for my left arm (the chair turned around)

animegamingnerd4708d ago

i thought it was pretty obvious

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot29d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose30d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE30d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername30d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy30d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde30d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8630d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8630d ago (Edited 30d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300030d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle30d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7730d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
