Notice all the hipsters citing Sunshine as the definitive. The same people who believe Majoras Mask the definitive Zelda title. What's next, Metroid II the definitive Metroid title? All great additions to each of its respective series, neither close to being the definitive.
Depends. In my home it's doing better than great. Great library of games, all looking and running brilliantly, playing even better. 2015 promises even more, with some genuinely exciting games on the horizon. My PS4 on the other hand is - I kid you not - being used more as a Blu Ray/catch-up box than an actual GAMES console. I'm sure the games will come, but to say it's a runaway sucsess in anything other than sales and advertising would be a myth.
Another last gen game "targeting" 60fps on a supposed 'next gen' behemoth of a console. Watch for the inevitable 'we felt 30fps was a better option' come release, and, even if it does achieve 60fps, its a game from last gen, so big deal. Come on Sony, surprise us, give us something genuinely NEW and 'next gen'...
The PS4 has an 'impressive' library (perhaps) in terms of number of games. The quality of games in said library leave a lot to be desired however. For my PS4 I own today GTA" and TLOU. Both good/great games, both let down (on PS4) for the fact I owned and played them already via my now traded PS3. After that, give me a solid reason to own a PS4 game which I couldn't be playing elsewhere...
As stated elsewhere, 99.9% of decent multiplatform titles are availabl...
Its mine, by far. The focus/trolling aimed at Nintendo and the Wii U must be blessed relief for Sony and Microsoft. I mean, I bought a PS4 at launch - having owned a PS3, 2 and 1 previous. To say the PS4 (thus far) has offered anything 'next gen' would be a massive lie. The Wii U has a wonderful exclusive library of games, each play, run and look wonderful...what am I missing? The PS4? Driveclub!? I cant speak for the XB1, not owning one - not that it stops those trolling the Wii U, o...
LOL! The site this so-called article hails from...PSX Extreme! Ok, for arguments sake, lets be balanced. I bought a PS4 at launch. To say I have been impressed with its 'library' of games (thus far) would be a massive lie. To say I have been sorely disappointed would be the truth. Dont any PS4 owner tell me their expectations have been met...
Yes, perhaps. Nintendo's focus isn't so much on 2D nowadays being a good reason. Seriously, Ori looks beautiful, from all accounts it plays just as well. If however it isn't quickly forgotten about and discarded in less than 6 months I'll eat my hate. Nintendo's efforts you'll notice are never as easily brushed aside...keepers!
This is what you get when the so-called 'hardcore' only lap up the popular. Nintendo's hand has been forced. While Assassins Creed, COD and GTA (for example) remain big sellers and classics get overlooked by the chavs, killing any variation in the industry. Nintendo should (in my opinion) remain for the more considered gamer, NOT your run of the mill chav.
OK then. Take PS Now out of the equation, what am I left with...Driveclub!? Pure enjoyment. That and some 'remasters'.
Am I the only sane person on this planet? Unlikely. However, is it just me who sees PS Now as a sham? Better if Sony had given us the option of a PS4 with full backwards compatibility. I'm sorry, but this like Sony's recent 'ideas' is destined to drop off fairly quick, in my opinion. Sure, if it were 'free' with PS Plus, but ANOTHER monthly/yearly charge...forget it!
Its true. It's like the recent announcement by Nintendo regarding new hardware, the NX as its being called. My money is on it being something very different than people have in their minds, certainly NOT a Wii U successor. Yes, the Wii U will eventually get a successor, as indeed will every console - but not anytime soon, thank goodness.
Its the same old hate, lack of 3rd party games. News just in...Nintendo have the best library of games - certainly exclusively, also, 3r...
Absolute total and utter tripe! Its pathetic. Nintendo release the Wii, turns out to be a massive success, the self-proclaimed 'hardcore mock it, say Nintendo need to release another console fast. Nintendo release the Wii U, not nearly as successful as the Wii but with arguably the better library of games, certainly 'core' titles. The self-proclaimed 'hardcore' mock it, say Nintendo need to release another console fast.
You may be surprised, but I - like m...
Erm, ok.
If by "capture a larger market" you mean appealing to the masses, pandering...leave that to Sony or Microsoft. Nintendo have always followed their own path, never tried to compete directly with 'competition', the reason I still continue to follow them - that and the incredible library of games. You see, what most people would list as Nintendo's weakness, I list as their strength. I have a Wii U for console gaming, games unavailable any place else, and I have a modest(ish...
Another "not next gen" review. I ask you...when will either Sony or Microsoft release a game which couldn't be available for either PS3 or 360? With the Wii U, it would be hard to argue the jump from the Wii isn't clear for all to see, with both PS4/XB1 however, less so.
Are we talking exclusives? Good! In that case, Nintendo will dominate 2015, as it did 2014. If your idea of a 'win' is sales, I suggest you are more shareholder than gamer.
Better to nullify any possibility of backwards compatibility and charge full/inflated prices for previous gen games, surely. Nintendo have made a massive error allowing all of their disc based consoles to be compatible with the previous version. Sarcasm!
No, no, no, no, no. Super Mario Kart must come first. Yes, Mario Kart 8 is (arguably) the best MK played today, but for the sheer impact at the time, and the fact it still plays remarkably great today, Super Mario Kart is boss. My top 3...Super Mario Kart (1st), Mario Kart 8 (2nd), Mario Kart 64 (3rd).
The Wii U games available for E3...absolute no filler! Zelda U, Star Fox U, Mario Maker, X, Wooly World. Eeeek!
I only need to think about my answer for less than a second...Nintendo hardware, easy. Mario, Zelda and Metroid (for example) on both Sony and Microsoft consoles = the kiss of death. Each evolving into semi-realistic, 'mature' and running at an inconsistent 30-40fps, possibly with some screen-tear thrown in for good measure. Personally I'd like to see - if necessary - either Sony or Microsoft drop out of the home console business. Let's be honest, each console (PS4 and XB1) ne...
