Clickonline writes "To date, the PS4 publicity campaign has been a generally flawless affair.
Initial skepticism at the machine proper’s suspicious absence from the debut event has long since dissipated. And their fool proof method of “Cataloguing every single thing Xbone does to piss off its consumer base and publicize the fact PS4 does the polar opposite” has been working out for them."

Its like the final episode of the Sapranos. You gonna go to make a comment and when you click add th-
I think the only game here for me is Nine Sols. Was always interested in that game.
Good month for me, I wanted that particular footy game and thought it might be due. Anyway who cares, shame about the site I'll miss the comment sections. All the best everyone.
Naughty Dog was reportedly divided on the controversial fate of Joel in The Last of Us Part 2 during the game's development.
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…
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
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.
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
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
hey if these are the missteps Sony is making with the ps4 then i am not worried. reason you might ask is because these features can be added later via a software patch. why Sony omitted these features from launch is beyond me but from the tweet of shuhei they will be added later.
The PS3 cannot use HDDs as extended storage. I dont get what the fuss is about.
The PS4 can read HDDs just as the PS3 does, example being in the fact that you can download the firmware onto a flashdisk. It just cant download or install games onto the hard disk.
The big issue is in regards to the DNLA and the MP3, and this will hopefully come with a patch.
Oh no! I can't plug in an external HDD to my PS4! The sky is falling!
I'm pro Playstation all the way, but for me the MP3 thing is a big letdown, the DNLA feature i don't use it much but i have a few times and have friends that use it a lot, so yes for me is a step back, on my PS3 i have a hugue amount of music that obiously i was going to transfer to my PS4 i know Music Unlimited is a great service, but it simply doesn't have all the music i like and never will, beside i don't want to pay for that service.
Luckily Shu already comment that will try to implement this so we have hope, and the gamers that have on their tweet list to Jack Tretton and Kaz, should also make a petition for this to be enabled on the PS4
I'm a gamer, all I want my game system to do is play games. I don't care if any multimedia features are ever put into the PS4. If I wanted a multimedia machine, I would've bought an Xbox One. The features should be and always remain an add-on feature, at the discretion of the gamer. Not something that always runs in the background, but something the gamer chooses to have run in the background. You should never force the consumer into something they may or may not want, it should always be a choice.
