I think hes talking less COD more gears and halo. As last ones they spent too long speaking and repeating the same old drill about COD DLC. We get it already its first on xbox the whole world knows by now.
More about 1st party? Meaning its a first party exclusive. Probably gears as we have no actual confirmation of that yet. Maybe something else, Sony will have an exclusive too no doubt as no way have they already released all there announcements of IPs in star ocean/street fighter etc.. and left none for e3. meaning E3 this year is gonna be amazing!!
To be fair this is all because of second console syndrome. People get 3rd party games on there xbox and playstation and only get wiiu for mario and co. So when something that breaks the norm comes out like bayonetta they dont buy it purely because thats not why they bought it.
only first party games sold well on a nintendo home console? SHOCKER!!
You wonder why 3rd partys dropped it like a lead balloon.. If they are happy with around 200k worldwide sales 3rd partys will support it.
This is all down to them being a Japanese dev and the xbox tanking in Japan look at all the other devs who have got upcoming games for ps4 only S-E (star ocean), Level 5 (Ni No Kuni 2), Capcom (SF4) and we just had from softwares bloodboure. I could add more but you get my point the Japanese devs want a decent audience at home before they will release there games on Xbox and who can blame them? At least for there none AAA games. Capcom supported MS at launch purely because DR sold a lot more ...
"If anything, anticipation for the game has only escalated to a pandemic level. "
On what planet?? The hype for this game was quite big until the delays came thick and fast and a lot of people lost interest.. There will be some hype for this game as there is always for a new IP by a big publisher but not as much as there was. Certainly not on a "pandemic level"
Your logic is weird.. Your comparing a controller to a console?? Not only that you included a PC title to the conversation and didnt say it beat the console version but it was better because it sold out?? What kind of dumb logic is that?? Anybody who knows anything about PC knows 99% of pc gamers now buy digital only. Those PC copies that sold out aren't even a blip on the radar of the ps4 version in Japan. Maybe if we included digital sales there would be a good comparison but your compa...
I think S-E, Level 5,capcom, from software and a couple of other major japanese devs disagree with you. The reason why all three of those developers are making (or have made) ps4 exclusives is because of poor sales in Japan of the xbox one. These devs want to sell there game in there homeland. I mean whats the point of making a japanese version on xbox if its going to sell around 500 copies? I eman you can say sure it will sell decent in the rest of the world but thats a lot of lost worldwide...
This only happens though if your console isn't the primary console and you need the license check to play the game. As once you downloaded to primary console you dont need to be online to play the game so the validation wouldn't matter. So right now this only affects game sharers or those with 2 consoles.
Its basically pay to win now its gone f2p. If they didn't go that way they would crash and burn. Its sad but no mmorpg has truly managed to do the f2p model right just yet.
Gotta give it to Sonys marketing team though they are doing so well this generation which is the complete opposite of last generation where they were just terrible for advertising PS3. In fact if you all remember they fired there advertising firm and hired a new team and it seems the new team is pretty damn good at what they do.
in the jrpg department wiiu has xenosaga which is something i guess
Level 5 still hating on MS for true fantasy live online eh? These are the kind of titles MS needs to be honest if it has any hope of selling in Japan.
I feel they could look at it and make a full hardline game now with possibly a new team. I hope they do really. They need to split the battlefield from it as the best part about that game was the open world environment which unfortunately they didn't let you explore. When driving around on a couple of missions it looked like a huge open city using frostbite engine and oh boy I wanted to drive and walk around that city. If EA did that it would be a GTA contender. GTA from the cops side of ...
The problem with female gamers I feel right now is not all female gamers are serious about gaming. dont get me wrong there are a lot of proper female gamers out there who just like to game with males and females and they are great to play with online and chat with. The problem is with people like Jessica Nigri and the other ones who use the title female gamer to get attention as they know they are attractive and wear low cut tops all the time to get gamers to follow them and then buy there ca...
GTA and BF selling more on Xbox was expected as most people on average buy 1 game a month and since most ps gamers bought bloodbourne that month and xbox gamers couldnt buy it they bought BF and and GTA instead. We will see this reflected in the coming months with more PS4 sales of those games than xbox sales as ps4 gamers eventually picking up those games.
Hes not working for them in fact all the crap he claims not even MS themselves are claiming he claims more than them. He's nothing more than a bias idiot who uses his dev background to try to get people to listen.
please can we just ban all brad wardell related articles now?? Hes the only person on the planet who talks about xbox hardware like this not even Microsoft themselves claim all this! He is clearly biased and using his developement background to let his bias shine through please N4G stop letting his articles through.
Its not just saves it uploads its all save data so if you have driveclub it uploads your ghost and replay data and those things are into the 100mb mark and then theres minecraft maps which are around 100mb each. It can easily fill up in 1 or two nights if you have the right games.
At least ubisoft aint making it :)
