I like reading articles written by people that actually understand what is happening. He didnt seem to have an agenda one way or another. For me, i have loved this gen. I look at the ps4 as taking it a step further. I have considered pc gaming but it has too many cons for me. I am 35, work alot and ultimately, i would miss the console exclusives. I am not a fan of meyboard and mouse play, especially on a monitor. I like to relax and play on my large screen TV. Also, pcs are more expensive and...
I am almost sure i read somewhere that there will be a subscription fee for playstation 4 online and it will be called playstation world. It may be a rumor but they were smart in proving to everyone that if the pay $50 a year, they will get their monies worth. Xbox is in the unenviable position of matching this. Though, they may release an entirely different pay structure, at least as an option.
I think xbox, and i hope i am wrong, will show alot of kinect and its future. It ...
Why? Why? Why? Why? It makes no sense unless its beung released on both. Is that what drive club is, to satiate those angry at this announcement?
Day 1 ... Everyone is ripping on it. We r spolief. This gen has been amazing. Even if next gen is only a little better, it will still be a little better than amazing for me. So, yeah...day 1.
I dont understand why everyone wants to sell it. It isnt like past consoles that only played games. If they implement backwards compatibility, it will cost more to produce, especially since the architexture is entirely different. Yeah, it may help with transition but if it costs more to produce, they will have to charge more. Maybe not as much as someone may get for selling their ps3, but if its a $75-100 difference, then whats the point. Wouldnt it be better to pay less and keep the ps3. Rem...
I was so hoping it was dragons dogma or its spiritual successor. It probably wouldnt be exclusive if it was dragons dogma, but it looks killer. What surprised me most was the activision nod with destiny to ps4 with exclusive content. That and jonathon blow may signify a change. So why wouldnt capcom supports sony's rise back to the top. Its hard to tell now but maybe MS isnt bettingon games this time. We will have to wait and see but I think sonys initial showing was very powerful and not...
Exactly. Now microsoft will go big and sony counters. Remember though that in april while xbox announces, and again at E3, where sony will go even bigger, 2 games will be releasing to remind gamers what to buy. God of War Ascencion amd The Last of Us. Wilk Gears be enough to sway ppl?
Microsoft does have an opportunity with their tech to offer backwards compatibility and/or content on xbox live on the 720. This could be one of its tricks to counyer sonys 1st party studios. Be...
U know what all this means...they are not telling us yet. If and when down the road they announce emmulation software or remote play, we will all be excited. I think they are waiting to see what to include and the price point as we get closer. Fine with me.
I am just not sure. MS realizes that the future isnt desktop pcs. How dothey make money? Their OS. Even businesses are more mobile then they used to be with phones and tablets, hence windows 8. I think MS is using the xbox to predict the future of TV. I dont know if it will work or not. I dont know if they care about games at all, or if that will even matter. It could end up being successful anyway as the new way to enjoy TV. This could be great news for Sony and even better news for Nintendo...
Exactly. It will help vita sales tremendously. It would be worth giving them a bit of money to do it. Remote play for the ps4 would be huge, especially if it works with new standby mode.
The reasoning is most likely time and money. They need a next gen lauch title and killzone looks great. Notice it isnt killzone 4.
Exactly...what is it so hard to do. Oh yeah, it isn't. They simply wanted to do what they wanted to do. I love the incremental move from foot, to ship, to Dragon, the Dragon is awesome, to vacate and travel. And they got the ideas from you...wtf! The overworld is a big deal because it separates towns from dungeons, and allows non linearity to coincide with linearity to tell a good story while being open. I thought this leads jrpg 101. And it looks awesome and allows u to go wherever u wan...
Yeah, i think i read $60 again. I wish there were benchmarks. publishers must send out 100 copies of the game to impartial gamers. These gamers get questionaires concerning length, quality, etc. Then they send them back and a board or something determines the price to be charged. It will need to be regulated. This could work in some form (i know how ansurd it sounds). I would love it because i wouldnt mind paying $70 for some games that r great, took 3 yrs and 100 million to make. I dont want...
Maybe not miles but as a nintendo fan, i believe they missed a golden opportunity to get the jump like xbox did on sony last gen. Especially since the ps4 and 720 will launch at $4-500. I just wanted so much more. Ultimately, i would compare this to dragons dogma in yerms of graphics, and it may be better. But did anyone see deep down? There is no comparison. And sony has proven that once its first party comlanies build for the ps4, its gonna get crazy. Look at what naughty dog has done with ...
You are right about one thing, exclusives are the way to go and like nintendo, sony has invested heavily in 1st party software. Now, u may be right, but i fear that nintendo may have a hard time keeping up with third party titles. I do hope i am wrong. I love nintendo but i think they missed a great opportunity to get the jump, especially at their price point. And did anyone see capcom's game? I know that ultra settings on pc would look better but thats like visiting the United States and...
Did someone actually sit down and compare a tech demo run on ultra high pc settings(which i gather it was built on) and compare it to a console that has lower tech specs and hasnt come out yet?
Believe me, i have considered a switch to pc gaming with upcoming gen because of the simple fact that the economy is down, companies cant charge a ton for consoles and the exponential rate at which tech is releasing on pcs, it seems as though consoles will never be able to keep up. So,...
If xbox is smart they will take a hit, offer it for $199 and a monthly fee like smartphones. Ppl are used to it and if they can get it in everyones home quickly, they will be successful.
Honestly, i would easily pay $500 for a ps4. It looks awesome but they have to be careful of xboxs pricepoint because they can afford to lose more initially. and xbox is trying to incorporate cable TV which could be very dangerous. Ps4 may be the better console but if xbox releases at under $...
Goldman Sachs should worry about itself and its corruption first. Its weak because of its software? It doesnt come out for 9 months. Does everyone assume Sony showed us everything? Also, didnt they say that gaikai would stream old games? Isnt that a source of monetization? And why does everyone figure no one will play their ps3 games anymore. If i were sony, i would have marketed the ps4 as an extension and convince ppl to keep their ps3s by emphasizing its blu ray and ability to stream conte...
Of course not. What do you have to gain by showing off the ps4 before E3, tgs, or microsofts reveal. What matters anyway are the specs, and software. Is what it looks like even matter right now?
Actually, i agree with u. Its a unique strategy too if its true. They went after nintendos motion controls amd if they can undercut nintendo while providing pretty good 3rd party titles, while offering new gadgetry and ways to play, all while aiming at those that dont have alot of money, they may be on to something. They know that the economy isnt getting better. They know they have a huge install base with the 360. They also know how successful nintendo was this gen. From this perspective, i...
