Games are good

In a way, I definitely agree. I would rather pay $450 for an Xbox One + Kinect + Titanfall than to pay $400 for just the Xbox One, and then $60 for Titanfall, and not even have the Kinect. This is a significantly worse deal than that. They should have just made the Xbox One permanently priced at $450 and bundle game... whenever one game becomes outdated, just update the game you include in the box. The stand-alone console should be $350. This isn't a good deal, but it's a step in...

Now THIS is good news! I've been waiting for this... It'll be time to get an Xbox One soon. Can't wait for Sunset Overdrive!

In true Insomniac style the graphic design is bright, colorful and fun, and the animations look smooth as well as intricate.

The gameplay looks a *lot* like Infamous with the wall-running and wire-grinding, while the combat looks a lot like Rathcet & Clank.

The graphics don't look very impressive, but the art design and animation look great to make up for rather basic geometry and assets.

All in all it looks like good fun, and I may n...

I'm sure this is a reach, but for me, if they bring out an Xbox One for $350 or less (including Kinect or not, I don't care), I'll buy one. The thing is, it HAS TO cost less than a PS4 before I'll buy one. To me, the Kinect doesn't add value. It doesn't remove value, either, so if they include it, I don't care, but if they have to remove it to get the Xbox One cheaper than the PS4, then they should remove it. The Xbox One as a console (not with the expense of K...

@sourgrouch: Yeah, because obviously the most important things to a console's specifications are the latest bluetooth and wifi profiles (which you mentioned TWICE EACH) </sarcasm>. Not the RAM and GPU, which are both the best of all consoles. Hahaha. Wow.

Disagreeing with post makes no sense, because it's a simple factual statement.

@PixelNinja, I didn't say it was handled poorly. You could almost interpret my post the opposite way, as I was responding to someone who said that going annual would be bad for the series.

They have done a nice job releasing something every year, between other-genre spinoffs (RTS vs FPS for example), remastered releases, etc. Main series releases have been every 2 years o...

It's *been* an annual series ever since Halo 3 came out.

2007: Halo 3
2008: Halo Wars (Though technically it released at the beginning of 2009)
2009: Halo 3: ODST
2010: Halo: Reach
2011: Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
2012: Halo 4
2013: Halo: Spartan Assault
2014: Halo 2: Anniversary
2015: Halo 5 (or whatever they'll call the next Xbox One version)

This isn't surprising at all.

I *vastly* prefer the day/night cycle features of this game to the so-called "dynamic" option. Why would I want to only be able to play in daylight when it's daylight outside, or play a night-race when it's nighttime in real life? That makes no sense to me. I mean, having the option to set the in-game time to the real-world time would certainly be cool, but as a feature, it's one that isn't nearly as cool or important as actually being able to manually choose and ...

Give it a rest Bundi, you're wrong, and you're in denial. Oh well, you have to give it a rest because you're out of bubbles. I swear, though, N4G's bubble vote system doesn't have enough options... What do I select to down-bubble Mr. Bundi here?

Personal Attack? No...
Bad language? That's not it...
Immature? Maybe, but not exactly...
Off topic? Nope...
Not a reply? Also wrong...
Trolling? I don't th...

I am flabbergasted at the disagrees. What are you people trying to say? I don't get it. I'm pointing out that week-over-week, the PS4 didn't drop as much as most of the other devices, which is a fact. What's there to disagree with?

4465d ago 1 agree0 disagreeView comment

Based on the numbers DanielgearSolid posted, the PS4 actually did quite well. Here is the percentage drop in sales from last week's numbers for each of those:

Vita: -43.9%
3DS: -43.9%
WiiU: -38.5%
PS4: -37.5%
PS3: -29.4%

So the PS4 and PS3 had the smallest drops.

It says a lot that even the sales spike from the Xbox One's biggest system seller yet (and quite possibly the biggest individual system seller it's likely ever to have outside of Halo), which more than doubled the console's sales, it still only sold about the same amount as the PS4.

I am getting so effing sick of critics calling PS exclusives "generic". It's like the catch-all, go-to word they the industry has agreed on so that they can have an excuse to not give Sony games great scores.

I don't get it, and it's all BS.

Generic my ass.

What is wrong with everybody here? This website has literally *nothing to do* with the InFamous game series.

Did you guys even peruse the site at all before debasing it based on the name alone? It's a coincidence. The website has been around since August when they were formed after a successful indiegogo funding campaign.

There is a comprehensive "Who We Are" link on the site that tells you about each member. They have names & faces. The...

Patiently waiting for the PS4 release. I heard great things about the PS3/360 version, but since I knew it was eventually coming to PS4, I've held off. Hopefully it comes relatively soon... maybe this summer/fall. I want to play it!

OK, @Illusive_Man, so which games (exactly) this generation have raised the bar on gameplay to a "next gen" level not possible or seen previously?

Admit it, there ain't a single one. The criticisms that some games are getting for not advancing gameplay beyond some arbitrary, imaginary (frankly bull s***) "last gen/next gen" barrier ... it's pathetic and it's hypocritical and it's not founded in logic or reality. Some games are being criti...

Trying to reduce soul farming is stupid, though. Let players farm to their heart's content! The purpose I believe wasn't to reduce soul farming, but to make areas a little bit easier. Conceptually, their thinking is that if you're going through an area a bunch of times, it's because you're having trouble getting *all the way through the area*, so by making enemies stop spawning after a certain number of kills, you should be able to get farther through the area and event...

You're just arguing semantics. Designer, use the term, don't, whatever, the FACT is that she was the creative director/game director in charge of development teams on all 3 Uncharted games, and on Soul Reaver, and other games dating back in her career. You don't want to call that a game designer, fine, but the fact is that she was never just some employee... She was the creative director for the entire company at one point! She was the leader of the entire 150+ person developme...

No, the reason the the world is trying to make a deal out of Amy leaving is because Amy is a famous name that people were aware of. She is an established and popular designer. She's one of those Sid Meier, Will Wright, Hideo Kojima, Shinji Mikami, etc. type of people in this industry, so when there is news regarding her and she leaves her company, it becomes a media sensation. This guy, nobody has ever heard of him, he isn't a high-level guy, he isn't a project lead or a famous...

I agree. Don Mattrick was slowly killing Xbox for me. The Xbox had tons of great exclusives every year before he took over, and then they just fell of a cliff around 2010. The number of non-Kinect, non-Arcade exclusives on Xbox dropped massively after Mattrick took over. His whole vision for the brand was based around casuals. Now that he is gone, the brand is resurging. It will be difficult to overcome the obviously weaker hardware coupled with the more expensive price tag in compariso...
