Arrgh... Stop comparing home consoles to smartphones/tablets already.

Mobile gaming could grow into a bigger market and there's nothing wrong about it. However, consoles don't need to steal a piece from the mobile gaming pie, as they have their HUGE persistent market with dedicated customers already. It's not going anywhere in the foreseeable future so why would they feel threatened as long as they have the support of hardcore gamers who are willing to pay $60 for...

Actually there's nothing to be upfront about it. Remedy have always been a "Games for Windows" focused studio, so their next project was expected to be a Microsoft exclusive again. It's not worth writing an article about, to be honest. I wouldn't even be surprised if they use Quantum Break to advertise DirectX 11.2 (or a later version) in the future.

I think the title is kind of misleading.

It seems to me that he's talking about "better effects" compared to the PS3 (and the other last-gen) versions. In no sentence he makes a comparison between PS4 and Xbox One. It's highly possible that the effects he's talking about will be at the same quality in the XBO version as well, while PS3/360 versions will obviously be inferior to the next-gen versions.

The title should have been "AC I...

Last of Us I believe might be the best game of this generation for many reasons that had been listed countles times before in various topics. In my opinion, it's the defining game of the current gaming generation so I consider it as the "target" game overall quality of which should be achieved by any other video game company. It's such a strong experience that anyone who calls himself/herself a true gamer should experience it. It's literally "the one game" you ...

Let me ask you another question.

Who releases exclusive games like The Last of Us to PCs? Got an answer to that? Anyone? Anyone at all?

(dramatic silence)

Exactly.

Oh come on, I'm sure that %90 of those people were just making, well, some not-so-funny jokes. You can bet your life that those guys who're making themselves out to be douchebags on some forums just for fun are slaves to the women they love in real life. Like, literally... Most of the guys around me would do anything for the ladies they care about.

That's the illusion of the internet for you. Get used to it.

I don't feel anything at all about an Assassins game for the first time with AC IV, and I should state that I'm a big fan of the series.

The game looks so much like the AC3 that I don't even know why they would give it a number rather than naming it with a subtitle like the Brotherhood. I'm watching some new gameplay videos and it just looks like "AC3 The Naval Battles Extended Edition". And the modern day story is not going anywhere at all, they jus...

Nintendo doesn't need "A NEW" video game franchise but new "franchises".

If they're going to invest in a new IP and keep pushing it out in almost a thousand variation for the upcoming 10 years, that's not going to cut it. That may please the existing Nintendo fans but a new game alone sure as hell won't affect my decision towards which console I should get. That's just not enough.

When Sony or Microsoft is concerned, w...

Hey omi,

"Story is a tie"

Didn't you just wrote "I lost track of who's who in MGS" in an above comment?

I don't mean to disrespect your opinion, but if you don't have a good grasp of the characters (and thus the story arc), how do you make a comparison? I agree that there are too many characters and that there is a convoluted relation between them going on, but that's just the beauty of it and why we ...

On second thought, I don't. Curiosity is a sin after all.

Not really.

Xbox One still has the upper hand. Clouds will be more like clouds with the cloud calculation capabilities of Microsoft's Cloud.

That's some Cloudception for you.

Why would I care about what the average joe thinks of the next-gen consoles, anyway? Should their comments affect my decision?

I know there are lots of people who get a specific brand of console and become a total fan of it only due to the fact that their friends have one as well, and that they can play together online but still, even those people don't care about what the men in the street who're not necessarily gamers think about their console of choice.

And none of them will be controlled as good and comfortable as a PS3 game, let alone a thousand mobile games combined would't make a Last of Us. So... yeah.

Welcome to the world of HD graphics. Yeah, they kind of require a bit more work, don't they?

Don't expect clear answers regarding the differences of consoles when it comes to big third party devs who are partners with both Sony, MS and Nintendo- they're going to have to avoid the questions alltogether or just beat around the bush. If you want to see the true potential of a console, take a look at exclusive games.

@Heartnet

Yeah, that's how I understood it as well. Seems like the touchpad itself functions as a seperate button, just like how R3/L3 works on PS3 when you press the analog sticks.
