How is it gamer friendly? Paying for timed exclusivity benefits Xbox gamers in no way because the game is going to release on that same date regardless. All it does is aggravate ps owners who have no intention of buying an Xbox because they get stuck waiting. If anything it's just a way of starting up an arbitrary pissing contest. The concept of timed exclusivity should be done away with entirely.

Clash of clans is addictive but a game with more gameplay and less waiting and also less p2p would be great.

I would be surprised too, but borderlands was amazing (just a little on the lower budget side). If anyone has the resources to carry out the promise of a high end sci fi take on borderlands it's bungie. It could potentially take the fps crown but I still have my eyes on battlefield, killzone, and titanfall. Things are getting competitive.

Oh snap at blastoise's point. It's really subjective though. Some people love halo. Some love Star Wars. Some love Star Trek. Some love stargate. Some love starhawk. As for people like me my appreciation of sci fi doesn't go much further than the ender canon. I prefer lord of the rings over Star Wars personally.

Yeah they always need restrictions or game sales would plummet. One of those restrictions was not allowing two people to play the same game at the same time I believe? You can probably only play shared games while you're online. I feel like this would be mostly useless since people would want to play their game when it comes out and everyone would usually want to play online together too. It will be about as useful as when you could download your games onto a friend's system this gen....

Unfortunately being one of the best jrpgs in this generation means very little. This decline is depressing. Maybe square will go bankrupt again and have a new ip be their final hope and it will actually turn out to be amazing. Then the cycle will repeat. Or maybe the warriors of light closed the loop once and for all. I apologize for the obscure and corny reference.

And doing so with minimal lag. That would be a feat. As of right now most people don't have the Internet to make it viable I think. Only people in the cities have really good Internet (at least here in Canada) and even then processing an online game is usually a big enough burden for the average connection (not to mention any background downloads). We will wait and see.

Rapport. I can appreciate that.

I think my favourite thing about him is he doesn't layer his speech with pr rhetoric and usually gives a straight up answer or simply refuses to answer. He doesn't take himself to seriously as well and I respect that.

Not sure why someone just clicked into here disagreed with you and left. At least give a logical reason. Custom themes are great. Maybe people are so uneasy that they will disagree just because you mentioned a feature other consoles don't have? I don't know.

I hope insomniac recovers with their new game and doesn't succumb to a similar fate.

Layton makes killer money. There's a reason they've made so many while their best series has been put to rest. It costs less to make Layton and it might sell more.

Hated 13. I think the boring combat system that requires little strategy beyond changing paradigms and the cringe-worthy story/cutscenes killed it for me.

Oh and the straight line for 12 hours with no quests/options/towns/npcs until it opens up into that uninspired calm lands type place that only had ffxii-like hunts but not even as good.

Anyone else miss the days when level 5 wasn't a bunch of sell outs like capcom (milking monster hunter on nintendo systems with barely any improvements since the ps2 original) and made dark cloud? Those were some amazing RPGs and I feel like they could have only expanded the freedom further with the new systems.

It's pretty awesome. Definitely more difficult and some of the new mechanics and plants are cool. The themed places under the guise of a quest through time is also sweet. Wasn't really feeling the whole pay for certain plants thing though. They should have just sold the game for 5 to 10 dollars straight up.

I think they may have debated it a bit but then unanimously decided it was better to have the lower entry price and I feel like Sony has also taken the most notice of the core's reaction to motion gaming and they wouldn't risk including something most Sony fans wouldn't bother with (like move). The playroom could also just be a small bit of software to make the camera a more worthwhile purchase since I have yet to see any motion-exclusive games surface. It would be awkward if they...

I think the camera would be best for video chatting with a buddy. Microsoft was really selling that whole Skype thing but ps3 had 6 or 8 way video chat. I'm curious to see if Skype will make its way to ps4. It's become kind of pointless with how far cell phones have come along and I never Skype anymore but I'd just like to see if its possible since Skype is integrated into windows mail and I'm assuming Microsoft owns them now. I hope to god Sony never considers paying royaltie...

I feel like this was an expected feature that goes back to voice recognition on the ps2 eye toy and even n64. Everyone is copying everyone. That's how competition works. Bbm spawned iMessage, Siri spawned voice on the galaxy, xmb and miis spawned the newer 360 dashboard, 360 party chat and live brought party chat and a social emphasis to ps4. The list goes on.

The game is only 20 dollars? Is it just a downloadable title then? I had it in my head that it was a full game but I guess 60 dollars for a fighting game with 8 characters would be criminal.

It would be kind of funny if this is true as a whole press conference was based around this feature and Sony have stayed silent on the matter as if its only vaguely important (it really is imo). I think the most intuitive way to browse the menus and UI could end up being the touch pad. If not though, analog sticks have never failed me.
