The problem isn't sequels so much, it's the annual franchises. COD every year, FIFA, Battlefield, Assassins Creed etc. It sort of started with FIFA and Pro Evo and now every publisher seems to need to have a yearly franchise, smacks of greed. But who can blame them when people still buy them, hell some people only ever buy COD n FIFA anyway. Sequels are great sometimes, GTA for example. Sometimes less is more as it creates anticipation and also gives more time for developers to create...
PS4 gets the best version, yet again, suprise surprise. Xbox just can't seem to catch a break.
BC seems to be a big deal for a lot of people. Good on Sony trying to find a work-around, could be another killer app.
@doolin. (sigh) "So why isn't Xbox One being given the same benefit of the doubt as people gave the PS3?" Probably because the PS3 was actually more powerful than the 360, just more difficult to program for. This time the PS4 is more powerful, but the xbone is more difficult to program. So how can people give the xbone the benefit when it is inferior and the gap is only going to get wider over the generation. Unfortunately benefit of doubt isn't relevant in this instance.
Well thats pretty much 2:1 in sales over the bone in the UK as well, M$ second strongest territory. Not good M$, looks like after all the early adopters dropped off so did the support. Hmm, wonder if the bone could end up in a similar position to the WiiU as they both seem to be quite similar, overpriced, underpowered consoles with stupid controllers and no support.
@Sven. Its because there's nothing to leak. M$ have made f**k up after f**k up, vis a vis all the interest. The only agenda is M$ trying to completely dominate the videogame industry by any means.
@georgeenoob. You obviously didn't read the article, as it was created by a FAN not Sony.
@truefan. There you go again, you just can't help yourself can you. No wonder you've no bubbles lol. TBH I don't know who sounds more desperate, you or M$. Ooh there's no games, when it's been out for like 2 MONTHS idiot. Your'e the one who's brainwashed, defending M$ dodgy business practices, typical xbot.
@Blaze929. The problem isn't MS trying to do their own thing, it's the way they are doing it. It's how MS do business that p1sses people off. They seem to think that they can either just buy people off or bully them into doing things their way. I think this just makes MS look desperate. The Xbox One has been only been out for 2 months and they are resorting to trying to bribe people into buying one, from their competitors customers, and this is in their home territory, oh dear. Ye...
Must be a rumour surely. I realise that MS have made a lot of u-turns lately, but this would be the ultimate. A pure DRM online only console, no way. After the sh1tstorm over DRM last time. Can't be true, can it?
@georgeenoob. Very doubtful, most PS3 users will probably want/get a PS4.
@n4rc, '30 old arcade game with a paint job' which just happened to get a higher critical score than every bone launch title lol. And it runs at 1080/60, the bone would probably struggle to get it to 720/15.
Yeah paying full whack for half a game and then paying premium for the rest of it, great idea, wish I'd thought of it.
Funny how FR & RES don't matter any more now its actually relevant. Last gen its all the xbots went on about. Well sorry to burst your little bubble but it DOES seem to matter to a lot of people, that's why there is nothing but damage limitation coming from the bone fans.
'XB1 will make bigger gains' is again another deluded denial statement. When are all you stupid xbots going to realise this will NEVER happen. The PS4 is superior in EVERY department, online included. Da pwer of da cloud strikes again. The bone is a gimped system and the gap between them will actually get WIDER not decrease.
Re SonyROXitoohya, the point is you have to have XBL Gold to do pretty much ANYTHING on the bone. Typical xbot damage control.
And golf balls in Tiger Woods.
Nice review. Yeah Olli Olli is really addictive, and well worth the price, yet another great reason to own a Vita. The first time I played it I was up till 3 am, just practicing on the daily grind lol. It has that just one more go feeling in spades.
Truth hurts
Last gen its all the xbots ever went on about. Now the boots on the other foot all of a sudden it don't matter, it's all about the 'gameplay'. Hypocrites. You xbots do more 180's than M$.
