PS4 is for the masses and X1 for the hardcore?! WHAT??!!
I don't want to look like a di**, but that's just funny. Maybe for the hardcore Halo and Gears fans, but just look at how many exclusives (quality and quantity) Sony put out in the past few years. Then look at the games coming for PS4 and X1, first and third party console exclusives. Trust me, as a gamer who cares about exclusives and variety PS4 is the place to go if you want a next gen console.
Well, I do own a PS4 and dislike MS with a passion, but to me it's like this. Europe has always been a PS market, except for the UK since the 360 era. Probably because it's an English-speaking country. So it's not that surprising that the PS4 dominates. Also, the X1 did not launch in as many countries as the PS4 did in Europe, so in a country where the only choice is PS4 it is likely that you're going to pick that one up.
That being said, of course the price ...
Yeah. Also because pretty much any site can now do a review that gets taken into account on Metacritic or gameranking, even though some are just reviews that are good or bad to generate clicks. That's why it's important to always look at the most common scores and find sites that you can trust, that post reviews and news and opinions that you can understand and share from what you have played, etc.
Apart from that, sites like NeoGAF help to, where real enthusiast and ...
I did not read the article YET, but if someone says that the guys working at Polygon should go back to school, then he's probably right and has a valid point. Polygon is just bad.
Edit: And was right. Polygon is just the worst example of a big media outlet that always want attention. Whether it is through a low review score or some bs news. They are just an attention wh**e, because well, people then talk about them and they get clicks and money. Otherwise Polygon has noth...
Two things:
1: Where is the source. It just says that there are rumors. So who said it, where was it listed or which insider provided that info? That news is so random. Let me just tell you that I for some reason do know that The Last of Us, Ico and Gran Turismo 2 will get PS4 releases and they will all come with The Last Guradian.
2: So all these games will fit one one Blu-Ray? Sure.. it's not like U2 and U3 were using about 40+ GB each. But yeah, they&...
That Quake engine..
Well, there are soooooo many different engines floating around that are still based on that very engine; and they all habe some things in common: High framerate, great for MP games and if there is a lot going on, good for using filters and stuff on them, but always looking dated.
Take every CoD or now Wolfenstein. It always plays good, but it does look really dated, which is alright I guess, but there are much prettier engines around that ...
Not if you were playing with actual friends of yours that you played through the campaign with. Maybe that happens in MP with randoms, but not with you friends. And also, not really a lot of 'show and tell' if you just duplicate all the stuff with you friends and have a closed party.
I mean yeah, the game is SP also and is also designed for playing with randoms, but imho only playing with people you know and like makes this game amazing.
But whatever,...
Well, then you might not be into shooters and have not played it with a firend/some firends, that's where it shines!!
I'm still curious to see what Furious Four will eventually turn out to be. It used to be a Brothers in Arms game, but it isn't anymore. It's it's own new IP and to me it does actually look like a Borderlands game set in WWII, so with a more realistic approach than Borderlands has.
From the 4 character classes and the trailer we've seen, it looks like a lot of the Borderlands formula is in that game, which makes it really interesting.
But w...
Lol, these comments here... Did people even bother to read what Neil said and maybe even read the question?
Pff.. THIS WAS ALL A JOKE BY THE AUTHOR AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF THE GAME.
Wrote it in all caps, so it becomes clearer. This is fun.
That's cool to see him (probably) doing another game with/for Sony. He's definitely an interesting person. It'll be interesting to see what he will come up with, hopefully it'll be something new.
was kinda sad how Twisted Metal turned out and that Eat Sleep Play wen mobile, so it's good to have him back.
Yeah, I'm wondering how much decibel that applause had and what bitrate that soundfile had that they were using. Lots of stuff for professionals to uncover here indeed. ;)
It's a Japanese event. Stuff like that is totally normal over there. I wouldn't call this a scandal, it's more like how shows and events like this are done over there, with tons of weird (at least for us) editing and music and effects.
Trust me, EA will milk the franchise with an annual release if it is successful. Just like BF now and of course other series they have and like Activision and Ubisoft do it. If something works they milk it as much as they can.
I'm pretty sure that that'll happen to Titanfall as well. Even though I got to say that I am not entirely sure what the exact deal between EA and Respawn is. Respawn is still private, so can they choose when to make a game or do they have a cont...
"Respawn is adamant"...
I was immediately laughing when I read that. AS IF Respawn had anything to say there. It's all an EA thing, and they just got offered a lot of money by MS, before EA knew how poorly the Xbox One would do compared to how people thought it would turn out (especially after the dominance of the 360 in the US (and UK) (which is EA's most important market)) at the time the deal was made.
The Respawn guys even said (probabl...
My guess is that those guys don't even bother to read the article. The just read the headline and then take a shot.
I'd guess that of the people who post comments about 80% click on the article, 30% actually read it partly and 10% read it all (depending on the article. Most articles are getting to that 'twitter level'. Really short, not telling much (even one vague quote makes a story nowadays) and also just repetition all over the place and tons of pics and/o...
I am usually a person that likes to write more detailed comments as well if I'm interested in the story and totally agree with you and the author. The entire bubble system is bs and the guys that run N4G are not better. Recently I got a bubble taken away for pointing out how stupid the comment by someone else was, but the mod did not get it and even game me a restriction. Ridiculous.
Just imagine how this site would be if you had to at least post 160 characters... I'd...
Well..... http://youtu.be/aLdnufJk8hI...
But yeah, after that they never really mentioned it again, so it's not clear at all if they were actively working on it or not and if there is any progress. Guess if they really wanted to do it themselves then it might not even be further than in concept stage due to Infinite that they had to make and were already struggling with.
That'd be a good question to ask Ken for his Q&A he said he would do. I guess his answer will be like: "It was in development, but now 2K owns it, so it's up to them, I don't know what will happen to it, but I'd love to see it happen eventually." Something like that, so I hope that what the guy on top said will come true and 2K will hand it over to another studio, internal or external, doesn't matter.
And since Quantum Break looks like half game half film it'll probably work for him I guess.
Gravity is a good film and the effects looked good, so he did a good job on that.
