This is Sony's console business exit strategy. The ps4, maybe 5, will be the last console from Sony. Fanboys will argue about that, but it's becoming clear. They don't make any real money from console sales, it's all from software and accessories, dlc, etc. By doing this with PS Now, they are eliminating the cost of r and d for new consoles while increasing the Penetration of the PlayStation brand. Clever. Now any TV or future device can essentially become a PlayStation.
Who cares this game will be garbage just like every licensed game sega has ever made. This is not a blow to the Wii u at all. Y is this even news? We already know games like this won't sell on the platform so why would they bother?
I doesn't look good in my region. There's tons of Xbones on shelves around here but not a single ps4 or (gasp!) Wii U on any shelves. I was just out doing shopping and some returns at wal mart, target, Kmart and best buy and it was the same everywhere. Wal mart had the same 10 xbones they've had for the last week! I asked the clerk he said they haven't sold one in over a week. They've gone thru every ps4 they got and have gone thru 2 shipments of Wii u this past week alone...
Some awesome deals on Wii U stuff this week! Its a great time to buy one hope to see some new peeps on MiiVerse and in games!
I would love to see them do a proper Ninja Assassin game with the AC engine, but they need to change it up a little. These games are getting very stale to me and I am a diehard series fan who owns the LE versions of the first 3 games (AC 1, 2, Bortherhood). I have yet to really dig into Black Flag because it feels too similar from what I played and the 360 version has an atrocious framerate! I wont be buying that until I get a PS4 or Xbone next year sometime. Plus, I really dont like what Ubi...
Wow. These Creed games are not spaced out nearly far enough apart. Im burned out by the rapid fire release of these. Is it really necessary to have one of these titles EVERY year? Can we maybe take a 2 year break between the same titles Ubi?! I loved the AC series but this one a year stuff is not a good look. Take the time and polish these puppies up before putting them out, damn. Ill just wait until they're $10-20 new from now on.
I hope they dont do this with the Watch...
Sure sales matter... to the publishers. Im saying, why do gamers seem to care more about sales than the games themselves? Does it make you feel better when your fave game sells better? Does it make that game a better experience for you? No, its just more proof that gamers are brainwashed these days.
Publishers seem to only care about how much a title sells in its first few weeks on the market. Just becasue a game sells more does not mean it better quality. Are Mc Donalds foo...
Why the hell does everyone obsess over sales numbers? Are you guys friggin share holders in the companies or something? And when these numbers show that Nintendo is doing great with their platforms some try to spin it and say they're not doing that great. Holy crap, just STFU and play some games for frig sake. Who gives a damn really. OMG, no way Nintendo can have some good news without trolls spooging about what's gonna happen when sony releases in Japan. Wow.
Do you...
Anyone know if we can use 360 controllers on these puppies, ala PC? At least for the supported games. Im thinking of skipping "next gen" and getting a Steam box to go with my Wii U.
They are not going to ditch the gamepad. I wish these fools in the industry would stop bagging on Nintendo for doing something different. Microsoft needs to ditch Kinect WAY more than Nintendo needs to ditch the gamepad. Also, Nintendo is not really worried about the Wii U because they know what they have in the pipeline. The fact that they simply go against what the media seems to want is more than enough to give me confidence in the system. If Nintendo listened to all the chatter and whinin...
Yeah Im not down with the whole microtransaction thing. It works for mobile because people get those gamers for free, so the devs have figured out a way to wring money from those customers. These game companies just look like greedy pricks by putting microtransaction in full $60 releases.
After playing through Mario 3d World, I long for the days when games were STUFFED with content that was included in the original purchase. Now it seems that companies are cutting coreners j...
Im just glad that all those who buy early, when a system is unproven, essentially beta test the damn things. Now when I buy either or, they will be fixed with all bugs and stuff worked out. After the debacle that the 360 launch was, I plan on waiting at least 6-9 months in just to see if there are any more issues that arise. This is the price to pay for early adoption and no system is immune to it. It shouldnt be a fanboy war over this stuff because Im sure there wil be issues on both sides o...
Well sonys not charging $100 more for the ps4 because of the touchpad on the controller. Kinect proved its uselessness with me on the 360, there's no way I'm dropping another dime on anything kinect related.
I want to like the Xbone, but I don't want kinect and that hard drive size is going to be an issue sooner than they think. I will wait until the inevitable upgraded model. I like the current lineup better than what sonys got, but I know the PS 4 will be better supported with all important 1st party stuff down the road. Its a tough call for me but I would choose a ps4 because of the kinect requirement alone. If that's not part of the equation and the price is equal, I'd likely pick...
Looks like theyre taking that humor form Lego City and running with it! Awesome! I used to think the Lego games were getting stale and paint-by-the-numbers, but Lego City on Wii U changed it up for the better
While I would welcome some new DK info and video, that gamne was supposed to be out already! And since Zelda was already announced, they really should be showing that off now.
What other reason would they have been holding it off for? They could build a lot of hype now with a title and style reveal, then a full blowout at e3 with a Sept/October release in tow. It would be like a christmas present of hope for us Wii U owners. It makes too much sense, but Nintendo seems to lack...
Used to love Final Fantasty, but I have never, nor will ever, pay a monthly fee to play a game I have already purchased. That is asinine to me. What happens when they shut the servers down in the future? You paid to play but you dont get to keep? Its wack that this business model is so common these days. I will NEVER support this crap!
Timed exclusives, Micro Transactions, developers cutting content to release it as DLC, and patches are whats killing the industry. Whens the last time a major game was released that didnt need to be patched in order to fix something they missed before releasing? Its pretty lame that we have become accustomed to unfinished releases that we need to connect to the internet to fix. They changed the business model to help line their pockets better while taking away from the core value of games. Im...
Damn thats a good price! If Nintendo would take the loss and put the system price at this point they would OWN the market!
Yeah but since gaming has become so disposable with yearly releases and unfinished games, people's expectations have been lowered. Why hold on to a disc if the game is worthless a year later when the new version releases? This is why Nintendo is so important to the industry. The games they release hold their value for years and even increase in value over time. The rest of the industry has gotten disposable and this is proof.
