I tend to not listen to devs when they talk about things along these line because they 99.9% of the time are based on them being an exclusive developer (i.e. Naughty Dog) or something of the like.
That said, CDPR has my full respect and I trust them. Anything they say from a professional standpoint I listen to and because they are not stuck on themselves, are not sell outs, and respect their customers above and beyond the call I will always buy every title they put out. An in...
@Battlefieldlover
Mine went nuclear but luckily a PS4 fanboy flew in and used his powers of troll'ism to misdirect the issues and contort reality enough to save the human race.
Thanks PS4 Man!
They already scored big there with Titanfall, and nailed that down before they launched. Time will tell on future IPs but that one alone will be a big win come Spring next year. Anyone that thinks otherwise is straight delusional.
Good thing this made it to N4G! I'll start a service to correct this issue.
After researching this travesty with top expert engineers we found a solution. In a process that is too technical to fully detail out here we will rotate your case upside down thus putting the game on the right side. I know, it is an extreme solution but we here at howthehellisthisarticleok.com will tackle this injustice for a meager fee.
Core gamers don't trumpet one system over another, they play what they want and the corporations and hype be damned. That said...
Cpt. Obvious says M$ screwed up by substituting DDR5 for DDR3 to force the Kinect. They also tried pushing a draconian drm policy on everyone. They are not stupid though and nobody knows what lies ahead with them (the Cloud being an unknown factor, sdram potential, and the impact of focusing on targeting families and controlling the living room...
Amen, said the same thing below and saw your post. These moronic console wars miss the fact that we are all gamers. WAY too hung up on measuring things with tape measures (adding inches) and popping on to post bullet point rhetoric spouted by hype machine blogs and biased articles.
lol @ the console wars and idiot fanboys (both sides)
Infinity Ward pushed out Madden 2013...errr CoD: Ghost and said screw a nice new engine and optimization. They want that cash, the PS4 architecture was friendly, Xbox 1 complicated yet doable yet they saw $$$$ signs as always and green lighted the brown turd monster.
ffs, just get the console your friends are playing on and that has the titles you want. I promise, you will have fun regardless of the damn s...
I hear you and I am not on the M$ fanboy wagon. I am just a gamer like you and saying that nobody knows exactly how esram will factor in down the road. I am acknowledging Sony has better hardware, I honestly hope though that Xbox gets the esram issue worked out w/devs soon though as I love competition...in the end we win in these situations where one corp does not dominate the other.
I do know that as a gamer I am getting both consoles and am not stressing over what will, im...
You're just done? With what, Misinterpreting what people say? For clarity I am not defending M$ but saying read more than the bs fanboy hype and hit generating garbage floating around here for BOTH systems.
I own a PS3, 360, and a gaming rig. This generation I am buying both consoles. Why? Because I am a gamer and lucky enough to be able to afford them this year. I did not knock Sony last gen for failing hard on the social side, I wanted to play the awesome games they had...
I respect you position but read my thread reply below yours. You can not categorically state the Xbox 1 is inferior based solely on cost. I am not defending them, I am saying do not propose or assume this is the case when the consoles are not even out yet. Even when they do, there will be a "teething" period for devs to optimize for each system's strengths and weaknesses. After a bit goes by then you can declare that based on established performance over time.
M...
This topic in general has had me on the fence about where to spend my money so I decided to stop listening to blogs and hyped up articles like this and I went and found out for myself by reading tech articles from experts that are non biased and also read up on the specific hardware differences.
What I found is that yes, the PS4 has more expensive hardware (i.e. DDR5 memory) and it is dev friendly in design. The Xbox 1 cost less hardware wise, but I think people are not aware...
With you on this one, I think the difference will be in the things behind the scenes so to speak. Which Corp will have a better infrastructure, for lack of a better term, to stand on.
These blustering blogs and articles are all grandstanding bs and fanboys defending one console or the other blindly. Nobody has a clue how it will play out because...lol, they are not out yet. Until you have it on hand then everything else is just posturing. Specs are great to a point but then s...
I am a gamer, I can care less about console wars. That said, the PC is in an entirely different realm than consoles. Cost more? Hell yes they do, a lot more. Do they beat the living daylights out of anything you can do on a console? You're an idiot and moron if you think otherwise. Better graphics, better titles, better everything from a pure gaming perspective.
Consoles are convenient and easy to use. PCs while more expensive and complex, are powerful and push titles way...
ffs, is N4G just a PS4 fanboy/girl site now? Both consoles will be great, and differ only in areas I could care less about. In the end I am a gamer and am not prone to blindly attacking or defending any one console. Articles like this just feed on the idiotic console war garbage.
I am buying the Xbox One, why? Only 1 reason, Titanfall hits first for it and nearly everyone that touches the game says it is one of those games to buy a console for. PS4 will get it down the road b...
Hard to feel empathy for R* on this. Let's be honest, without heist the online becomes boring fast.
Add to that people legitimately putting in a lot of time to only lose characters, items, and cash and the 500k stimulus then just seems to be an gimmick. A simple incentive to keep people around so they can get dlc out before the next gen wave steals the wind from their sails a bit. I also honestly do not see why people are tripping as who cares, it is only affecting your g...
tl;dr version: R* should have given the option to skip this part of narrative (i.e. play only as Michael if you want) so you did not have to be forced to do it.
I think it is more about taste. At what point do you draw a line and say something is tasteless? Example, you would not play a rape simulator or pedophillia game. Most people would cringe and clamor at it. The other end being the violence we are used to in games (i.e. FPS games).
So where is the line ...
@Sarick
tl;dr only got to some strange analogies made and stopped.
You misunderstand me on this topic. "You're response is based around a form of entitlement." Not the entitlement label, you are completely wrong. Also wrong drawing correlations between corporate censorship and things like wearing bicycle helmets. If I go further it will sound like a personal attack. All I am saying, and have been, is that censorship of speech and expression of any form s...
@Sarick
I am saying that I could care less what law you found and cited, censorship is always a slippery and dangerous thing. Take it in context, not a general labeling because then you are treading thin ice. Mods moderating forums, you securing your router, or roller coaster rides...how is that akin to blanket censorship and intelligent conversation as a consumer to say it is a bit much maybe? Ironically not talking about it sets precedence for companies to crack the whip an...
The devs have the right to protect their game, not censor those with legitimate copies sharing visuals of them playing on the internet. Slippery slope when you condone this.
lol @ console wars and fanboys.
I luckily have the trinity (PC, PS4, and XB1), and will enjoy the games and platforms for their perspective strengths while continuing to laugh at the close minded people that bash one just because they want to be a cheerleader.
