Waited on Diablo 3 and GTA5 cant wait to get it on my PS4

sinncross4238d ago

SoTC inspired armour too???

Wow awesome!

ArchangelMike4237d ago

I wonder if this is why the release got delayed so much. I hope it's worth the wait though as I'll be picking this game up upon release.

Sony is doing a great money hatting exclusive and timed content of their own for multiplats.

I know N4G hated MS for doing this but maybe now you all will see that this is common practice when 3rd party titles outweigh exclusives. There has to be some incentive in place.

disKinected4238d ago (Edited 4238d ago )

I hate MS for doing this and I am totally not liking that sony is copying this rubbish practice.

Timed exclusives thing and exclusive content for 3rd party games needs to die, and die quickly.

MasterCornholio4238d ago

Even though I'm PS4 owner I hate this practice. I hate it because while I might benefit from it others who spend the same amount of money as mr will get an incomplete game. Take destiny for example. The PS4 version has a whole instance exclusive to it which is an invasion on mars. A whole instance can you believe it? Not to mention exclusive customization options, armor, weapons, items, vehicles. Tons of content for buying the PS4 version over the Xbox One version. I really think its unfair that developers are doing this.

Nine_Thousaaandd4238d ago

I agree...but if Sony doesn't react to Microsoft's timed exclusives...then PlayStation games will seem to be lacking all the time, and possibly low sales due to it. Have to fight fire with fire to stay in the game, and we all know given the chance...Microsoft will play this game over and over again buying timed exclusives to get first buy on their console and games.

Then we as consumers have to stop buying it as well. Bad practices all around...sad to say!

disKinected4238d ago

I agree with both of you above me.

ravinash4238d ago

Its also the fact that MS have to do the same thing, so if you only have one console it does not matter which one you have, you will alays be missing out on some content.

It's a real shame when all you want to do is play the game with everything it has to offer.

Volkama4237d ago (Edited 4237d ago )

It's one thing investing in a game's marketing so that it emphasises your platform. 3rd party games are a significant battleground, and you can't really expect the respective platform holders to just sit back and let it play out.

It is quite another thing to invest in making the game worse for other people (which is what "exclusive content" boils down to).

Timed exclusives are a bit more of an ethical grey area I suppose, but still not where I would like to see the money go.

Sadly the practice is not going to die off any time soon.

I'm guessing that PS4s huge lead has something to do with it.

spacecat50504238d ago

Doubt it, I'm guessing it has everything to do with Sony's huge paychecks to 3rd parties.

Captain Qwark 94237d ago

haha typ n4g.......... MS does something its bad, sony does it then its okay.

sony shows all games nothing more while ms shows games and tv or other features, bad. sony does this, A+ on their showing.

MS gets exclusive content, bad. sony does it, the practice is justified now.

i dont think ive ever seen a more biased community.

this is a lame practice period. same with pre order bonuses that are different for each console. give me complete games if i pay 60 bones, period.

spacecat50504237d ago

Agreed,

just shows the tolerance of N4G. Quick to hang MS out to dry but when Sony does it, yea they hate it but wont make a huge fuss about like they did MS.

Sony is doing everything MS is or has done and the sony fanboys have no choice but to accept it. The excuses will come as to why its ok when sony does this im sure.

Maxor4238d ago

Clickers have no business being in a Diablo game. You might as well insert a few Helgast and Solid Snake into it while you're at it.

sinspirit4238d ago

You compare Nazi reminiscent futuristic soldiers, as well as a highly trained soldier who specializes in survival and stealth, to diabolical monstrosities that fit in with a dungeon crawler.

ravinash4237d ago (Edited 4237d ago )

Why not, Diablo is taking place in a kind of Medieval setting.
Clickers in their story line are from modern day or near future.
I don't mind taking characters from other games in things like fighting games. but I don't like them appearing in games like Diablo.
Because when they appear I think 'Oh, thats from so and so game' and then I've been pulled out of the game expereance that I had been enjoying.

sinspirit4237d ago

@ravinash

That is the setting they are in in TLoU, but what they are is from a bizarre kind of fungal infection. Nothing futuristic. Diablo, being in a setting for plagues and with swampy areas clearly they do fit in. The infected from TLoU aren't that different from monsters already in games like this.

MeteorPanda4238d ago

looks amazing. after the fiasco with the pc release l didn't touch it and sold my battle.net account after finding out my wow stuff all got hacked as well as d3...all thanks due to the exsessive trial cards that blizzard allowed everywhere.., didn't get help for 4 months and by then l just got all my stuff back and handed it all over to my friend....so this is a good restart for me

I Found a Dungeon Full of Chickens in Diablo 3

Rich at GameSpew: In Diablo 3, dungeons are normally full of monsters, demons and beasts. That's why I wasn't banking on finding one full of chickens.

That's the unofficial "Gambus Khan" dungeon;-)

m3la0n4g2717d ago

Essa matéria é tão ruim que não vale nem o esforço de traduzir para a língua inglesa. Faz milênios que eu já vi isso e outras coisas similares em diablo. Aposto que essa pobre criatura não viu a fase onde só existem vacas que se consegue no Cubo.

There's Nothing Quite as Magical As Diablo 3's Treasure Vault

No video game moment is sweeter than when a portal to The Treasure Vault opens in Diablo 3.

maybelovehate2720d ago

Definitely agree. Still the best moment in any looter.

Gh05t2720d ago

Let me introduce you to the the "Vault" from Borderlands.

...Just kidding that was the biggest let down of a vault in gaming history.

That being said Crawmerax (sp) kills where still my favorite and the timed loot run in General Knoxx expansion is way up their on loot based excitement.

stavross2719d ago

Allthough I love the Diablo games. Getting teleported to the treasure vault in Nioh was an even better gaming moment.

skratos2719d ago

Played so many years this game.

Xb1ps42719d ago (Edited 2719d ago )

So mad at my self... I bought this game for ps4 and regret it cause I play more on my Xbox, so tempted to buy it again but really don’t want to.

I know it’s a Hail Mary but it would be amazing for it to be put in gamepass
