Few people will get a PS3 at 499.99$, too close to that infamous 599.99$ pricepoint the PS3 was originally sitting at, but at 399.99$ it may work pretty well. But ideally the PS3 shouldn't cost more than 299.99-349.99$ at launch, then it would sell like crack-filled cupcakes.
I for one will wait until it's below the 300$ line to get one. It'll take several years but I can wait, I still have so many PS3 games to buy.
Plus, this way I should be able...
If it's true that online will be a prerequisite and no 2nd-hand games for both the Nextbox and the PS4, then the Playstation history will be a trilogy for me, not a tetralogy, or quadrilogy or w/e.
I can't even fathom how Sony or MS could currently employ somebody short-sighted and , well, plain dumb enough, to not see the absolute commercial and corporate disaster to go that route.
On the other hand, if MS alone goes that route as the article suggest...
Am I the only one under the impression that the PS4 will have BC only insofar as it will have Gaikai as a new service available for PS+ users which will allow you to stream PS1, PS2, and PS3 games, and also allow you to still play digital PS3 games purchased on the PS Store on your PS4, but will not have support for BC with physical BR-based games?
Suburb level was nice, as well as all the levels mentioned in the article, but I personally retain other highlights:
-the hotel with spa in Hungary (Hitman Contracts I believe)
-the german ambassy in Russia (Hitman 2?)
-The opera house (Hitman BM?)
-The slaughterhouse party aka "the Meat King" I think (Hitman Contracts?)
-The White House (Hitman BM)
-The castle in Japan aka "Snow country" I believe (Hitman 2)
+ a coup...
4. Ascend: New Gods
is such a blatant rip-off of God of War, and
7. Deadfall Adventures
of Uncharted Drake's fortune, it's not even funny. It's a wonder how they even managed to come to the idea to make a sequel called Gears of war Judgment by themselves at this point.
2. State of Decay looks kinda cool though...
@ Tsar4ever
" cuz the neXbox already has one great advantage coming out the gate, "full backward compatibility to x360 games"!

Hum..what? Did I miss some news here? How do you know that please?
PlayStation Home arcade machine? It's available for free in Home on the PS3? Where? How?
I'm disgusted to see the PS2 games they have on the japanese PS Store (Capcom vs SNK 2, Dark Cloud, Bloody Roar 3...) compared to the junk we have on the european store... when we were getting PS2 games, that is.
Oh, and still no Retro City Rampage in Europe, how come I'm not surprised.
SCEE is an absolute disgrace. Even the folks at SCE France could do a better job at running the european branch of Playstation.
Whoever at SCEI in Japan is let...

I'll sit and laugh while the video game industry crashes and burns while I'm off doing something better and less Jewish.
Er, say what? "Less jewish"..? O_o
Chrono Trigger was a great RPG, but certainly not the best one on the SNES, guys come on.
Final Fantasy VI (III in the US)
Secret of Mana
say "hello!"
I won't be getting the PS4 day 1, that's for sure.
I loved my original 60 GB sku PS3, but it's now waiting in pieces to be sold or trashed because it just wasn't as reliable as I thought. I have 650€ worth of hardware (500€ second-hand console+150€ repair fee) that's pretty much a pile of useless junk now. To think the Xbox360 had a failure rate even worse than that of the PS3 60 gig sku, wow, and some of you people are talking about trusting MS again an...
Crysis 2 was an amazing game with some of the most impressive visuals ever seen in a FPS. I'm a PS3-only owner, and even I have to say that game really pushed the envelope. Well, especially on the Xbox360, on the PS3 it had to face juggernauts like Killzone 2 & 3, which were several notches higher than even Crysis 2.
So I dunno... why all the hate for Crytek's games on this site? Is it because it's a european dev? Or because PC owners lost their precious exclu...
Wow, everybody seems to agree that next year's E3 will see the revelation of the PS4 then. I for one am not counting on it. There'd be some kind of draught with the game releases if the PS3 was at the end of its lifecycle.
I don't want a PS4 before 2015-2016 at earliest personally.
Why isn't he working on a new Twisted Metal game? Didn't the one from last year do just fine sales-wise?
David, we love you, even with all your spunky little kid's faults, just come back at Sony Santa Monica studios! I'm sure there must be some sort of way to work somethg out with SCEA so they migrate you back there. You are the creator of one of their best, multi-million $$$ franchise, after all.

The only segments that were good in the game, was like 25-30% of Leon's campaign. The fact that they turned a freaking rope climb bit into a quick time event was insane, like they thought it would make people enjoy climbing a rope in a game. It tried to do the whole Uncharted cinematic vibe thing, but it missed that vibe completely.
It wasnt just a bad resident evil game it was a bad game it tries to do so much but all of it just turned the game into a giant c...
I don't understand, how could it cost them money to wait for a new gen of consoles to come out? If anything, it seems to me it should work the other way around and allow them to make more money as they reuse the assets created for one game to make sequels.
I don't want to go back to the 2-3 years lifespan we had before (nes, snes..), it should on the contrary increase to like 7-8 years. I want my money's worth of time spend playing the damn system!
They can do pretty much whatever they want with "DMC", but Dante should still look more or less like Dante, and we need that track back during combat!

Bloodybutcher, you're kidding right? You actually met a girl you had encountered in Home and had a baby with her??? O_o
I bet Sony never thought their app would one day serve as a marriage bureau, LOL.
If you're for real, I wish the best to you two, though
If only it were still possible to play matches with full player count in Warhawk :(
Dammit, I will be missing that game when the servers are shut off. I played it non-stop (well, you get my point..) during all these years since it released in 2007.
The PS3 was the system that introduced me to online gaming, it was (and to a certain degree still is) new to me.
I still mourn Motorstorm 1's online, too.
The thing with online games, or games with an o...
Always the same old crap released countless times already before on various systems, including on the PS2 with Capcom Classics Collection vol. 1 & 2, which I still have, and it comes with REAL classics like Final Fight, Street Fighter II, or Knights of the rounds or Captain Commando, unlike that half-assed arcade cabinet, which comes with the bare minimum and will probably cost some 20$ again *sigh*
Rather get a PS2 and the Capcom Classics Collection games, guys, you'...
