That would depend on your definition of "games". If by "games" you mean Black Ops 2, Super Mario Bros. U, ZombiU, NintendoLand, Just Dance 4, Ninja Gaiden 3, Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition, Assassin's Creed III, Scribblenauts Unlimited, Monster Hunter 3, 007 Legends, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Epic Mickey 2: The Power Of Two, Darksiders II, or should we say these are not "games"? Please tell me what is a game then?
Agree with most of ur points except graphics leaps will not decline. they may become less important, but they will not hit a brick wall. if you saw the technology they already have graphically then you would know that.
word to @Larry L
P.S. This is the craziest gaming week in a while. Hope your fave company comes out looking decent lol. This is like Hell Week for the gaming corps. I'd hate to be a PR at one of these places talking to disgruntled gamers all day. Especially EA's customers.
Poor Maxis, to have all that hard work ruined by one title that EA dragged through barbed-wire because some execs thought it was a good idea and their most influential employees have no spine to tell them the truth about what gamers will and will not be satisfied with...
...On the same token, Maxis had to have seen this coming and yet they didn't stop it.

This should be a petition against Origin not EA as a whole. If you guys want it to succeed you may want to reconsider the terms of the petition. This particular petition will not be taken seriously unfortunately.
I am ready for the Xbox to be great either way. I would prefer they don't go all-digital from my personal opinion but others disagree. I just want to see them wrap it all up in an advertising package that makes sense. The next gen consoles need to each have their own solid and unique identity so they each have a chance to flourish and enrich the industry in their own way.
Oh EA should be fun to deal with next-gen.... pause...
Good read. The headline makes you interested immediately and the article substantiates itself with facts. Don't judge a book by its cover this article is worth reading and actually seemingly neutral on most issues.
@konohashin lol ps3 had those , they will be cutting the costs a bit by not including them in ps4 but i don't think that's a big deal. and they are called "NANO TECHNOLOGY" not elves ;)
@Alcohog relax bro this thing is educat...
True that. Wait a minute why did it take a whole day for the part 2 of this to hit N4G? I saw this about 24 hours ago. :P It's definitely newsworthy I'm just saying tho.. Long live Dead Space
I hope they have something up their sleeve to be honest. I enjoy choice. Choosing which game system I want to play at any given moment based on features i like/dislike is a very good thing. If there aren't a at least a few major players I fear what would happen with the vacuum of power.
@guitarded77 lol this guys the man
de ja vu . hopefully something cool comes of all this.
I had a lot of fun with ME series, I wonder where it will go from here with the branching storyline tech (others like to call it arcing but that's just not really accurate term).
Good show that's what's up guys.
thank you guys all for the comments. we have more episodes coming soon. we are trying to improve so all feedback is taken seriously.
@ScubaSteve if you actually listen to the podcast then you're gonna notice that no one here is attacking PS4. I am a fan of Killzone but the last time I checked its multiplayer got abandoned twice.
BLACK BIBLE i'm sorry to tell you this but this is stupid for you to complain about bro. Don't you know that the systems with optical-based backwards compatibility are always the least reliable and break the most? Not to mention you should be playing new games on new systems not old ones that is just a waste.
This is the equivalent of being angry that your DVD player didn't come with a VHS tape slot and a LaserDisc drive and a 8mm film spindle. Seriously.
...
definitely not! if anything they have been proven to strengthen and build existing and new neurological connections as well as enhance hand-to-eye coordination. not to mention the benefits of using game/simulation virtual environments to learn dangerous jobs such as working on an oil rig or being military personell.
@ greenpowerz & visible_schlong :::
I love PlayStation 2 but I'm sorry, it's issues were real not fake. And Sony is not the only one who has lost a lawsuit over hardware issues. Microsoft also lost a Supreme Court Case for the highest failure rate in electronics history and had to pay $2.2 billion that day in addition to the cost of extending the Xbox 360 warranty to Three Years. As mentioned in the podcast the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 Slim have attempted to rem...
You would end up with developers not giving you the DualShock 4 innovation they could because you all ended up using old controllers so they don't care to give you the higher experience if you don't care to take innovation serious.
Look up the changes from DualShock 2 to DualShock 3 it was more than just becoming wireless. There was an increase in how many angles it can detect you controlling from. Who's to say what crucial upgrades the DualShock 4 contains that ...
love it
