Partial backward compatibility is a hassle for most people, let's say you have this friend who wants to keep his 10 games when moving to the new system, especially game X.... Now, you cannot just tell him, hey get the xb1 you won't have to keep your trusty 360 around, your games will work on it!

You have to go lookup a list, hope for the best, etc. Then explain why game x and a couple others won't be playable, but they could maybe be made available sometime down t...

What about people who want a community around a group of games (e.g. Open world or jrpg?) or just a group of players for a clan?

There are many other ways to organize than 1game 1 commnunity.... Flexibility is good and can lead to great things....

When I want to play a jrpg I go 8 or 16-bit....

I prefered the simple graphics of the time for those games? This or my interpretation of where they should have gone in their evolution is way off.... I just can't stand the angry teen with super frustration power is out to save the world theme :-/

I gave a go to the disagea demo on ps4 ouch!!! Horrible...

So now a days when I want a good story I rely on the Naughty Dog games (wrpgs are just...

That's it, no more physics in Uncharted 4! everything will be static!

I wonder if that will leave room for an alternative physics engine to grow more, I mean, the list of contender is long, but Havok seems to be the market leader:

No, Elena will take over Drake's quest! We will learn that she has been secretly in love with Sam and they will assassinate Nate together in the bloodiest QTE turn of event ever made! Then they'll go after the treasure!

They are sneaky, in the same sense that Kojima is, in the best possible sense! They play us at every turn, they really love doing it and we love being fooled in that kind of a way...

That being said, I always interpreted the sub title "a thief's end" as Drake's ultimate goal... not his death, that would just not be ND.

"Just watch every 6, 7, or 8 review for this game get labeled as "troll reviews" "

6 or 7... sure it's a troll review, go read the videogamer review, the reviewer even trolls the comment section in the review!!! :-/

I mean you can dislike the games, but when you review you have to be able to go beyond personal tastes and make some kind of level headed assessment of what you see, and be fair about it's potential interest for others....

@Bansai the only difference between a "remaster" and a cross gen title like MGS V is the date at the which the game is released on the newer consoles.... same as if next year when the PS4 get Rise of the Thomb Raider, should it get lower scores because it was available for about a year on the xbox systems and a few months on PC?

In the same train of though, I truly felt that the game handled much better this time around when I played the demo, it's probably the ...

I never liked the first Uncharted, I can see why they were not very satisfied... also, they knew what they could do, hence Uncharted 2 came along...

Wow just got the demo, I must say that this made me more than happy with this "new" release! Uncharted 2 handles SO well at 60 fps :-D

Now I got to live with myself until I get the final version :-(

Yup the PS3 shot looks quite clean for a 720p image, mind you, most of the screen is under the depth of field effect (blurry)...

If you want to spot the difference easily, look at the HUD, the hair and other sharp/high contrast areas... you won't be able to un-see it.

Now be careful, if your computer screen is less than 1080p or if you are on a tablet/phone you could not be able to see it at all...

You, you have to wait for them to be on sale if you want to get them legally on Android/iOS... and they don't even support bluetooth controllers :-/

They made an horrible job of porting the game's original graphics to an higher resolution version of what they were (it would have been best if they'd have redrawn all areas without using tiles, just represent what they tried to draw with limited resources back then)

I mean, the rock should look like a meteorite, the grass should look like grass and the threes on top of it should not look like they are "darker grass"... as of now this port of an olf Final Fa...

it's OK, MS did not see the rise of internet popularity coming either :-/ I don't think we can count on them to tell us what lies ahead tech wise.

That being said, VR is a sideshow for now, and depending how it plays out, it may never be more than this.

Well if you can't win THE war you have to win the LE war!!!

Honestly I'm not sure what he means, I love how this console look, what I find sad is that I already have a PS4 and I am no fan of COD.

This is a general truth about every media... content has to be made for it.

Lara isn't much of a character, I mean yes she holds guns and strangle tons of guys with her bow, but in the last game (and apparently rise as well) she is basically "in danger" saved by a QTE every few moments... She is more a cutie than an actual powerful woman.

Now this one looks like a warrior, she is seen acting like one and doesn't sound like a porn star when she gets hurt.

I have nothing against sexy lady, but I think that an adventu...

I would rephrase the thing about performance like this:

Go for the cheaper console if you don't care about performance/resolution at all, otherwise go with the PS4 since it has more games available and since it is the market leader there are no seasonal drought ever (I mean, in the summer they get more than firmware updates and kind words from the CEO to play with).

Obviously, if you like the whole Forza/Gears/Halo chances are you will not be satisfied wi...
