Based on leaked specs, how much of a jump will Neo offer?
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
The gap between power of the ps4 and neo is nowhere near as big as the ps4 and ps3 gap. The power difference with the neo will allow you to play games at 60fps@1080p on all games might go more resolution depending on the game but it will be almost identical to the ps4 version just the double amount of frames and better shadows etc.
Let's face it theses consoles was underpowered when they came out I don't think Sony and Microsoft had the confidence in the console market liked they used to so they went cheap. Sony couldn't take the risk Microsoft went down the tv route Sony got lucky.
Now on the other hand Sony knows there is still a massive market for consoles i.e 40 million ps4 sales in 2.5 years it's crazy. So I think they have had litteraly no choice in making the ps4 neo and these are the reasons why,
Gamers have been mupping all this generation about how e3 reveals don't look as good as the final product (Ubisoft) and they are only a couple of games that can achieve 1080p at 60fps.
It's all 30fps and all devs going for the 1080p sweet spot.
Well all this is because the consoles are not powerful enough so Sony have been listening lets give them a ps4 that can achieve 1080p and 60fps.
And on the other hand VR is coming Sony need a more powerful console to compete with the other VR machines out there. It will work on the ps4 but neo will make VR that little bit better
And finally the NX is coming out and who knows it might be powerful and Sony answer is the Neo so basically with this new ps4 system Sony is hitting 3 birds with one stone and I think they have had no choice to do what they are doing.
We will all find out at e3 it's all speculation but I wouldn't be surprised if neo was at e3.
I really don't care long as launch models affordable now.
with that being said : im sure SONY will announce a price drop for those still on the fence this E3.
If Neo comes true, I hope they upgraded to Puma...
