Not sure I agree with this opinion piece. Nadella made the choice. When you become the new head of MS you look at MS as a whole and start trimming things down to start planning for its future. As any new boss would do. Nadella wants to push its strengths and refocus MS where its strengths lie. He obviously feels that the entertainment side of XE was a risky choice. Personally I don't necessarily disagree with him. MS is a software and technology company at its roots. I am sure that the ve...
Its a good thing your tastes are your own because I for one am looking forward to many of these games.
^ Except its been regurgitated over a thousand times in a thousand different articles. The only thing this opinion rant brings new to the table is the part about Xbox entertainment being closed. Only Jim doesn't even bother to bring up why. I am pretty certain this had less to do with the Xbox division and more to do with the new guy in charge of MS. I can almost guarantee you its Nadella (Head of MS) trimming corners and making way for his new regime. Which of course makes it look like a...
Lately it seems its rather O4G than N4G. "Opinions 4 Gamers".
Which in a way consoles have a slight advantage sometimes. More dedicated servers depending on the console.
I see the N4g community was finally able to use the 'off topic' bubble properly for a change.
I think its important to remember that anything under PS4s resolution will be pointed at and looked down upon in the comments online. Yet people will still play all consoles regardless with a smile on their face.
This is one of those things that I feel we are going to have to rely mostly on the experience of our friends/company to help push it along. However we may also have to play the whole thing through in order to know. So I will give it a fair shot, but I think we are on the same page.
I am excited more for the game play than the story at this point. So I can relate. That could be a weird balance. Is it both story and gameplay? I think that's the question we are all waiting to find out. I am excited but not as much as I thought I would be.
Well that's sort of his/my point. Although it may unfold better down the line (10 yr plan) but is it going to be that enthralling? Will we just wade through it? So far all I know is that we are to become legend. That we have been almost made extinct and that this is our last chance sort of thing. Without a character protagonist it could lack for some.
I think your thoughts on this are pretty sound. I worry about the longevity of the game as well. I think we all hope it's going to be the game we need, but there is so much hype it's hard to really know till it's been a few months.
Well, Sounds the same only with FX thrown on and maybe trimmed down? Still sounds about the same. Somewhat cooler sounding, I guess. Not sure what we expect though. It's a robot ghost thing. Let's hope the story of this game is immersive since there is no protagonist in this one.
Yeah I think these are great. They are making it more social than it already is. I love it.
Yeah themes would be really nice. I anxiously await that. I think they are just doing so much for the look of it they may be waiting.
And this one sounds awesome.
Yes, It's ALL xbox fans. Every single one of them. Not ONE Sony fan has ever been "annoying hypocrites". That's sarcasm by the way.
Perhaps the media outlets should stop talking about it like it's top story news. Then it wouldn't be a thing. They just like waving meat in front of all the fanboys.
@D-Du
Never said they were hiding it.
I think the real point to be made is they praise 60fps yet haven't shown us any real gameplay yet. Faster frame rate is always great. So is gameplay. Why not show us?
No offense man but even though you might be a little nicer than most people on here you still wave a flag proudly of your favorite corporation. Just because Sony is doing better doesn't mean its all sweet and peaches with them. You can't say "take your fanboy glasses off and look at something objectively" while parading and waving a PlayStation flag above. It contradicts.
There is no doubt that PS is doing better. They have also played their cards very wisel...
