It is a sad day in gaming when gamers are defending a console company rather than the best interests of all gamers.
Whether you are a Sony gamer or some other gamer, cross network gaming is at the very least an option that gamers who want should be able to take advantage of. I have no problem with gamers saying they don't want to use the feature and by default multi-player gaming should only be within the network. But, if a gamer wants to play with their friends on an...
I find your logic difficult to swallow as a consumer. As a manufacturer it is fine, but from a consumer point of view it is pretty bad.
So, Sony released PS4 Pro as a gimped 4K console so it can sell a true 4K console later therefore double-dipping on the consumer. While Microsoft is selling us a true 4K console because leaving them nothing to sell us in the future (Which frankly is not that bad of a thing as a consumer). So what you are saying is that Sony is trying to ...
Wow. A 70 million install based vs. the next console at 35 million and it will continue to dominate.
In other obvious news, the sun has risen this morning and I am 100% positive it will also set this evening.
This game is still at least two years from launch. I hate it when publishers endlessly show what a game is before it is even close to launch.
We have seen this time and time again from the first party publishers and it is really not good. It is not like Sony don't have games for 2018. They should be trying to sell those games not the games that still in a long development cycle.
Yup, in game after game we have seen that the brand new hardware by Microsoft is more capable then a year old hardware by Sony. This is not unexpected.
The bigger question is why did Sony release the PS4 Pro as a limited 4K machine a year early when they were already dominating the market? The only reason I can come up with is that it probably better supports PSVR. To which I would think they should've delayed PSVR another year then and released a true 4K console tha...

Yup. This is about gamer choice...
Not fanboy wars.
Well if MS is the only one begging then why is this about Epic games wanting cross play?
Also, XBL has 53 million users. Not as big as PSN but definitely not a slouch either.
I really like what I am seeing in this game. Looks like the shackles were taken off at Rare and they are back to creating innovative, awesome, and fun IPs again.
The trophy system is there to show your in game accomplishments.
Not everyone or even a large majority of athletes can say they have an Olympic gold medal. This is because you have to be on top of the world to get one. There is nothing wrong with game developers deciding that they want you to be world class in obtaining trophies in their games. It simply differentiates the most committed players from other gamers.
If everyone can easily achieve the tro...
This is simple stuff...
Sony has relied on massive sales in Japan for years to fund their AAA franchise development. But, with Nintendo outselling Sony in their homeland and stronghold puts a dent in revenues.
Fortunately Sony still has a lot of strength in Europe. But they have to find ways to retain the same level of profitability. That is typically done in one of two ways... 1) Reduce expenses to match revenues, or 2) Charge more for what you deliv...
I don't understand why DICE gets a pass on this. They have been part of EA for many, many years now. They do development and agree to implement the pay features into their games. If they were truly against it they should exit EA and go independent. By staying they are agreeing to be part of the problem.
I love the old games...
But, I would like to see these remasters, HDs, and remakes done by choosing a modern engine such as DMC4 and redoing all the stories in it. Same with RE. Take the RE5/6/7 engine and remake the rest based on it.
Just another set of clichés about Microsoft...
"It's sad that a great developer like Rare was turned into this by Microsoft"
"Microsoft has no first party games"
"Microsoft just wants your money"
"Microsoft isn't in gaming for the long haul"
"Microsoft only has Halo, Gears, and Forza"
"Microsoft closes all good st...
1. Managing Downloads is awful... Ummmm I have been downloading to PS4 Pro and XOX for all my games and they both stink, but XO stinks less.
2. 4K games are much larger than 1080p games... People whine about this all the time... The internet keeps getting faster and storage devices keep getting larger. When X360 came out in 2005 they had a 50 MB limit for arcade games. Look how far things have come.
3. I agree with MS blocking single player games on...
There should be no problem emulating for PS1 and PS2... The PS4 is more than powerful enough.
As for PS4 emulating PS3 it would probably be a tough task given the architecture of the PS3. Remember, developers took many years to master the PS3 architecture and it required a lot of iterations before they could make games run as well on PS3 as X360. In doing crazy things to make the PS3 run games just as well as X360 it would even complicate the emulation more.

Yes, my post said "There is no way I can justify spending $1,200 on a Switch, PS4 Pro, and Xbox One X just because Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft refuse to ship a few of their games on each of the devices."
And yes, I have still yet to justify the purchase of everything I have bought (I did not say I haven't bought them)... Which includes, 3 x XBox One X Project Scorpios, 2 x Xbox One X, 2 Xbox One S, 2 x PS4 Pros, 2 x PS3s, 2 x XBox 3...
So GWG was on top for Metacritic ratings but PSPlus one in hours and retail value...
Give me more highly rated games anytime over quantity every time.
Delays of a few months up to a year are usually ok. But delays beyond a year typically mean the game was not up to snuff to begin with.
That is at least somewhat factually untrue.
I do not disagree that Xbox One is weaker on the games department and that is a very important component of a console.
But, xbox one x is a stronger media device, the hardware is more capable as videos keep proving, it has a better OS, it has a better online network, it has better privacy controls, it has better streaming features, many people prefer the xbox controller, etc. A console is not only games anymore...
