The PS4 is my first big console launch

8bitbot's - My introduction to the Playstation began with the PS2. I had completed missed out on years of console gaming and as much as I tried to talk my parents into getting me a PS1 it was to no avail, something to do with – studying is more important than playing games, something along those lines. Time past and I had all but forgotten about gaming.

I brought a ps4 for kzsf and i'm loving it. I play knack but didn't enjoy it. if you are having fun with knack ignore the hater and do you ... Next is The Order and titanfall

DeathOfTheFanBoy4538d ago

Have you played Killer Instinct? or are you getting the PC version of Titanfall? I highly recommend KI even if fighters aren't your thing, the dojo is a great place to start...

SG1_dapunisherX4538d ago

I like Ki great fighting game love the going online. titan fall I'm getting xb1 just for live

I went through the PS1, PS2 and PS3 launch and i'm still as excited for the PS4 launch as i was for any of those. Setting it up was awesome and i must say well done to Sony the PS4 is a great piece of equipment, and some FW revisions will take care of the little issues i have with it. Pity MS think of South Africa as a 3rd (probably 6th) tier country. Still a long while before we get the new Xbox here.

thaiboy4538d ago

Microsoft have never view S.Africa as a viable market for the Xbox, we never even smelled the 180 and anyone who did have it struggled to get their Live accounts up and running.

Sony sold out of the PS4 on launch day and because of Microsofts attitude I will never own an Xbox.

The Shoe Salesmen in Africa

"Two shoe salesmen were sent to Africa to see if there was a market for their product."

MS: “This is a terrible business opportunity, no-one wears shoes.”

Sony: “This is a fantastic business opportunity, no-one wears shoes.”

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot18d 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…

HectixRose20d 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.

JEECE20d 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.

CantThinkOfAUsername19d 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.

Soy20d ago

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

DarXyde19d 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.

Ashunderfire8619d 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.

Ashunderfire8619d ago (Edited 19d 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.

pwnmaster300020d 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.

solideagle19d 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

Relientk7719d ago

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