Microsoft PR at this point is a parody in itself.
Just look at this
"The problem is that Sony decided to go out and publish a bunch of numbers, which are in some ways meaningless"
Then later on he says this
"on top of all the magic we're going to add with the instant switching, and the power of the cloud."
So wait numbers lie but magic of tha clowds is somehow significant when you havent shown anything ...
I think the break through is that they let someone who isnt just an engineer but also a developer design the system. So he knows what they want and what troubles they can encounter. Ken on the other hand is a engineer by heart and its all he has ever done, so i think tis harder for him to understand developers and the troubles they go through with exotic hardware.
August of Europe there was a leaked list that said we are getting DMC and little kings story. That list has been spot on so far. Its worth it just for the ps3 games its still getting.
I think the fact that he didnt have to worry about other stuff like Ken had to as Sce president and could just focus solely and completely on PS4 was really good.
Infamous:SS best looking next gen exclusive. Best looking game was Witcher 3. I would have said the division but looking at the downgrade of Watchdogs ill wait till its close to release because Ubisoft tends to downgrade alot.
He was the man for the job not just because he is an hell of an engineer. But because he is a a jack of all trades.
He has been a
-Producer
-game director
-designer
-programmer
-engineer
-written books about game development that are still used today.
He didnt think like Ken as a engineer solely but also as a game developer and that what makes him a great system architect for PS4.
When they show the powah of zeh clowds maybe then people would believe it till then its a bunch of PR bullshit and buzz words.
They showed Killzone:SF it looks amazing and less linear then previous killzone's.
They cutdown the time it takes for a graphics engine to work on ps3(6-12 months) to the time it takes for the ps4(1-2 months like the original Playstation). It means the ground work is done much much faster and can cut dev time down by as much as 8-10 month this also means porting time from PC to PS4.
As example it took the Octodad devs 3 weeks-1 month to get their PC version of the game to work on PS4. Indie devs will really benefit alot from this easy architecture. Its easy...
So far its between
-Lastofus
-Bioshock:I
-Ninokuni
-Tomb Raider
I think at the end of the year its gonna go between Lastofus and GTA V. Bioshock;I is a great game but the gameplay isnt on par with the rest of the game.
Go rent all those games from gamefly im pretty sure it is alot more expensive.
He talks about time to triangle at the 41 minute mark.
Time to triangle means the time it takes to get a games graphics engine to work on PS4.
Also Yosp is even more awesome then he is now with his masterplan.
If there was a demo for Aliens the sales would have been much much lower.
What that Microsoft is scared to talk specs, because they know their system is alot weaker for a higher price?
Incoming mo... nevermind its already too late.
Sony showed their launch lineup plus 1 title thats coming 4 months after launch(Infamous:SS) and 1 thats probably Q2 2014(The order 1886) they didnt show anything besides that. Leaving plenty of games to unveil at other important shows like TGS and Gamescom Yosp said 20 games from first party in the first year not including studio's like Ready at Dawn,Tarsier and other second party developers.
Microsoft has already blown their load, because they had to show gamers that th...
I think he should step down get some fresh people into Nintendo with a different perspective especially on the hardware side of things.
The few years that Iwata has been chief, Nintendo has had enormous succes with the Wii and DS, but both of those were just lightning in a bottle, especially the Wii. The 3DS wasnt doing so great, from its games lineup in the first year, to the price and tech of the system. Even with its price cut the attach rate of the 3DS is a mere 3:1.
He passed the torch to Cerny.
He is still responsible for 2 of the best consoles we have ever had. He may have gone overboard with the PS3 but the man is still a legend and the PS3 is still a beat even in its 7th year.
Dont want to be a dick but have Nintendo fans seen the graphics in this game. That just isnt possible on WiiU.
Xbone denied.
THE POWER ZEH CLOWDS! No wait thats the other company good engineering and design i reckon.
