There has been some reports around the internet about PS4 units having hardware problems but the fact of the matter is, many websites are starting a commotion to report about every defected unit they can find.
What these websites don’t tell you is that there are already a lot of PS4 units out there, and they are in working, stable conditions and there are a lot of these units, more than you would expect.
All available May 5.
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
you lost me at "reports around the INTERNET"
lol naw i read on but over a million ps4 are out there and compared to the say 300 consoles reported on amazon so far thats very little. but this is the internet age so information like this will spread and sound larger than it really is....non the less its scarier and any horror movie to see such reports hell just 5 would have me worried.
I know SOME Sony fans are in Spin Mode or Damage Control mode but when FORBES starts writing stories of WIDESPREAD PS4 issues then you can not deny the problem.
well i guess you can deny the problem but it's time to be realistic and realize Sony has an issue.
Screw AMAZON as I feel that that is people at AMAZON doing intentional damage.
I'm talking about the HDMI poor manufacturing port and the Software issues.
Forbes ......you know the Business Magazine who is ALL about Business and how things effect a Companies bottom line. The Magazine trusted by investors.
Not some silly Gamers site written by kids who can't use spell check. Forbes and a few other LEGIT sites is why I started taking this Sony thing serious.
all in all I hope Gamers get working PS4's. They spent money waiting on something and it should work when it arrives.
No one should receive faulty hardware.
Can we just wait until the dust settles and know for sure the actual failure rate?.
This is silly. Its been out for less than 2 days and we are seeing constant articles about this.
Even if there is total of 4 thousand bricked PS4 its probably only 1 percent of PS4 out now.
We are arguing over something we really don't know for sure.
I advise the same for next week when the x1 launches. Wait until 2 week or even a month to get a clear idea.
In the meantime it is pointless to argue over something we don't know yet.
I don't think the faulty consoles are a mall incident, because if they were there wolud be any reason for sony to ask amazone not to allow sale until they can figure out whats goin on.
Think all consoles launched were all fine? cmon
