Wow, 16GB worth of patches for day 1. I feel sorry for the people who don't have interne... no wait, I'm not sorry. If you don't have internet and own a PS4, what are you doing? It's like people who own an Xbox One or PS4 and still use a old CRT TV.

"Why doesn't the PS4 have regular TV cables?" UGH! Go the the thrift store and buy a 24 inch flat screen for $80 for christ sake.

PRIORITIES PEOPLE!!

Anyway, back on subject. I was hoping for the next update to have the 1080p 60fps mode. Darn.

**EDIT** I like how people interpreted what I said above to mean fuck the people with slow internet. NO, I said fuck the people with NO INTERNET. These are internet based consoles. You know that going in. Complaining about patches and stuff like that is stupid when you should have gotten internet service before you buy a system. If your a child and can't afford it or obtain it, then I guess you're SOL.

Eidolon3426d ago (Edited 3426d ago )

You can get a good 32 inch 1080p led SMART tv for $150 these days. There's just some places that get shitty internet service.

bouzebbal3426d ago

Good patch, cannot wait for the weekend.
I have U4 to finish this week before i attack the beast! I really hope it will be worth the wait.
I haven't enjoyed a FF since FFXII so i am double excited and nervous.

Lol we have unlimited data, my friend still used a crt tv until it died last year or earlier this year I can admit I was on a crt tv until some time early ps3 years. Theres one advantage on playing on a crt is that there's no lag. Was the best at cod back then people thought I was cheating but really I had better lag/response then them.

xPhearR3dx3426d ago (Edited 3426d ago )

It's actually an 8GB download. I just finished downloading it myself. Leave it to ThisGenGaming for clickbait inaccurate headlines.

Edit: Aaaannd they changed it -_-

jwillj2k43426d ago

What about people who are under 18 and can't make the decision to move somewhere that has internet?

Muzikguy3426d ago

I feel bad for those people. We buy the system and the games. Why should we have to pay a sub monthly just to download a patch? Then another monthly sub to play online. Then another monthly sub for something else.....

Too many subscriptions these days. I realize things cost money, but damn.

Stapleface3426d ago

Faster internet isn't an option for everyone. I live in the US but don't live in a city or town. Since I choose not to live compacted with other humans like sardines in a can, I'm stuck with ancient internet. The view, no neighbors, no noise odrinance, etc make it worth it. Priorities indeed. ;)

DaMist3426d ago

My situation exactly lol

This is a pretty narrowed view of things, what about people like me that are heavily invested in technology (own a 4k HDR tv, ps4 pro, Xbox one S, and a gaming pc) yet, unfortunately where I live I have no means to upgrade to better Internet (tied down to 2.0 mbps)?

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3426d ago

Not 16gb of patches, if you just got the game it will be 8gb. This is essentially the same patch as before just added some fixes.

jaymacx3426d ago

Lol why are you worrying about what other people own? If your blessed to have all these gadgets its a nice luxury. But definitely not a priority. I remember i had a black and white tv playing my NES... it was an awesome day when i finally got a color tv.

16GB?! FFS..... with my net i would be playin on Dec 1st

Eidolon3426d ago

Sure some people would consider you the luckier of the unfortunate that can't play on day 1.

pompombrum3426d ago

Where are you getting the 16gb figure from? I just got my copy and downloading patch 1.02 and it's 9gb in download size.

Platformgamer3426d ago

So we go from "no patch at D1 for people without or with a low internet connection and everybody can enjoy the base game" to 2 D1 patches??? (7+16=HOLY SHIT!!!). Tabby the liar ;) the truth was that they're improving the game to run better on ps4 pro, period. They added nothing to ff XV, the "crown update" and so on are thing that were ready on september 30 too, trust me

Gardenia3426d ago

I thought the game was delayed so they wouldn't need a huge day 1 patch

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3426d ago

Pretty much, Instead of a 20gb patch it's 9gb, that's a lot better IMO

F0XHOUND3426d ago (Edited 3426d ago )

I do love a good web design, one with all those awesome ads everywhere! Nagivation links > Ads > Article headline > Ads > one small sentence of English > Ads > 4 bullet points and another small sentence > Ads > Links to another post > Ads. Ok nice, lets check out the side navigation too, oh.... To be fair though, it was all on one page unlike twinfinite!

DarXter3426d ago

My thoughts exactly. The whole "contents"?:

Various bug fixes
Deeper game mechanics
New cutscenes
Cutscene adjustments

amazing stuff.

Six Times When Games Turned Into A Horror Game

Ever play a game a game only to discover at some point it transforms into a horror game? No? Well Netto's Game Room shares six games that do just that!

Immediately thought of the El Dorado zombie dudes in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

raWfodog343d ago (Edited 343d ago )

Not necessarily a ‘horror’ moment, but I remember feeling really tense and anxious when the Flood were first introduced in the original Halo. I never felt more on edge or nervous in that whole game as that moment. I think it was the whole buildup that something terrible was coming but you didn’t know exactly what.

Another non-horror game that had me feeling it was Subnautica. The deep dark depths, and knowing that sea monsters were lurking nearby, had me jumping at every sound.

NettosGameRoom343d ago

That scene where you first see them attack is pretty crazy!

Relientk77343d ago

I remember being scared of the Asylum level in the most recent Thief game from 2014.

always liked 15, but the development was shch a shitshow. it could have been so much more.

but Tabata did a good job with what he had regardless

DivineHand125478d ago

Ff15 was a missed opportunity from square as they transitioned from turn based to real time.

One of the issues is that it was 30 fps. The combat mechanics required precision dodges to activate Noctis teleport ability and it was difficult to do at 30 fps. I am glad they rectified that in FF16. The story and flow also felt like it went through a chopshop similar to how some live service games end up when they are trying to meet a deadline. Those extra episodes they sold as dlc should have been in the maingame.

FF15 is one of the weaker entries in the series.

Z501477d ago

Dodges don't activate the teleport ability. Teleport was R1 + O. Dodge was just the O button. Explain the Black Hood (the item that automatically Dodges for you)

TheNamelessOne478d ago

Ah yes; FF XV.
The beginning of me coming to the realization the series was no longer for me.

Michiel1989477d ago

16 was a lot better, I think 15 was just a big mess with how development went and all. The music though, one of the best in the series, probably the only reason I finished the game.

Cacabunga477d ago

At least FF15 had RPG elements . 16 was just an action game from beginning to end.

Michiel1989477d ago

I rather have a good action game than a bad rpg with 2 button combat

Cacabunga477d ago (Edited 477d ago )

Then call it something else then FF. I got scammed with FF16. Nothing of what i expected it to be.
Even the action is bad in it, especially after the demo section where absolutely nothing happens until the very end.

FF15 isnt a great game but it has some variety at least.

CrimsonWing69478d ago

That initial trailer with the Leviathan fight was the game I wish we got. The actual retail release was watchdogged to all Hell and while there’s enjoyment to be had in the game, it’s such an incomplete product and so many elements feel so slapped together without any cohesion.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I loved fishing, cooking, and the first third of the game, but I much rather they made a story that didn’t feel barely there and the the last third of the game didn’t feel so rushed and unfinished.

Becuzisaid477d ago

Every time a party member left for a period of time screamed future paid dlc. It was horrible.

Imagine Dagger and Steiner making the party go to sleep in Lindblum in FF9 disc 1 and then taking off to Alexandria by foot themselves, but then never playing their side of the adventure in disc 2 when they smuggle her through the South Gate in pickles, take the cable car and fight the Waltz, head to Treno and start the quest to find Supersoft. They just eventually reunite with the main party in the future without explanation of what went on in their adventure.

Or Sephiroth's backstory in the famous Kalm flashback being added as a dlc pack. Same goes for Vincent, Cid, or Yuffie for that matter.

Oh and anything to do with Jenova, the Ancients, Aerith, her mom and Gast, shoved into a 2 hour CG movie or 5 hour anime ministries that's considered required viewing for anything in the main game to make sense or have characters actually be interesting.

I enjoyed FF15 at the time, and finished it, but it's bright spots are marred by a bad development cycle and a worse marketing scheme.

CrimsonWing69477d ago

What’s sad is when I watched a vid on the entire story (that wasn’t properly told in the actual game)!it was really solid and could’ve been one of the most epic stories in any FF. I think a lot of the compilation and cross-media stuff really f*cked it all up.

gurp478d ago

FFXV was underrated in my opinion
I have played all of the final fantasy games, and I loved this game
turn based to me takes too long, I like active battle
the extra dlc and chapters should have been included in the original release, but it is nice that they fixed the game later

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion730d ago (Edited 730d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled730d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?
