Fingers crossed for a stable frame rate. It's CRUCIAL for this game to succeed !!!
1) " indies are crappy producers of software with few exceptions. "
Not all games are good games and same argument goes with the indie games but it's really harsh claim such thing that they are crappy. I can write an essay of why indie games are needed and great but I don't have time for that.
2) "If they took their own risks like making games for it or paying 3rd parties the Vita would not be in this position."

As a Vita owner this type of talk never gets boring but facts are facts.
No one is questioning Vita's hardware specs. It's very capable of running console quality games when optimized ( ie Killzone Mercenary or Uncharted Golden Abbys ). However, there is no need to kid ourselves since it can't run games like GTA 4 or Skyrim...
1 - Vita sold nowhere near Sony expected due to emergence of tablets/smartphone market.
2 - Vita will get...
Titles like this always makes me wonder why in the world can't you see the simple reason behind projects like this ?
It's all about making money for Sony. TLOU exceeded expectations and did so well that a movie would make sense.
By saying " WE " don't need the movie I wonder whom he is referring to because at the end of the day companies like Sony will always try to take advantage of the opportunity.
Personally I am not...
There is a better chance that he'll make more money off the discounted game of his... There is a reason STEAM works and publishers make money out of it.
While main-stream gamers get COD every year, we certainly deserve a top-notch Batman game.
I can't wait to drive with the bat-mobile :) Will be freaking awesome !!!
The title can be misinterpreted. Yes out of the 3 Infamous games, Second Son has the lowest score but it's still freaking 80!!! It's not as if there is a huge discrepancy, so I can only assume he used such a title to get our attention ( and he succeeded :) )
80 is a really good score, period.
If Second Son was a brand new IP, it'd easily score over 90 but that's the risk you take when creating sequels to awesome games.
Ano...
Will say this for the last time because I am tired of saying the same thing over and over again.
Look, we need the competition. We need PlayStation, X-Box, Wii, and possibly others to succeed and have reasonable market share. More competition means more choice, better games, competitive prices, and quality service. What point of this is not clear ?
If Xbox or Wii-U weren't in the market, Sony could price ps4 at $600, $800, or even $1000. Would you like ...
I am actually surprised by these sales numbers. The content itself may be great for the hardcore MGS fans, but the longevity of the game clearly affected the sales. On the other hand, Konami's profit margin is so high that Japan sales alone probably covered the cost of releasing this game and make some profit
Wow, that's awesome. Happy for you. I had the game about a month. The servers were so bad, so I gave up on the online side. However, I experienced a corrupt save file issue which wasted my 25-hour my player mode... It was the last straw, I ended up selling my copy.
They better learn how to fix the servers because they have lost a customer in me.
It's a shame because aside from the servers, the game itself is awesome
If I am correct, this is the only meaningful ( maybe the only ) FPS we , the vita owners, getting this year.
I am hoping it's a good port. Also curious to see if there are DLC content other than the ones already included.
This video looks promising. The frame-rate seems solid enough. The game is not graphically intense so the whole game should be able to run smoothly on Vita.
Killzone Mercenary definitely set the standard for Vita and i...
I have no problem with the content's quality, story-line, graphs, or game-play.
I am not sure if it's fair to compare movies to games knowing that average movie lasts about 2 hours...
It's reasonable to expect at least 7 hours of campaign from a game I think.
That's why dvd's start from$20 bluray $ 30ish and games $60...
Movie vs. Game is tough in terms of the value you get. I think it depends on an ind...
They will make money that's for sure but they are losing huge on credibility.
Can you imagine Naughty-Dog giving you a 1.5 hour Last of Us 2 and expect to pay $ 35 ? No fucking way. They wouldn't because it's not who they are.
I just hope sales disappoint and no publisher does a similar thing in the future.
The demo should have been reasonably priced at $15 like any playable DLC or free, which would have made a bigger impact on...
With all due respect to to the hard-working people behind this game, no 1.5 hour game deserves $30-35. Should have been a free demo or priced reasonably at $10 digital only.
I own a PS4 and I can honestly say that you haven't missed a thing. Infamous Second Son might change that but will see when reviews come in.
I am a console gamer and ma bro is PC. I can honestly tell that we are just catching up with those guys in terms of graphs and smooth gameplay. On the other hand no spec can match the greatness of exclusives liek Uncharted, Last of us, Infamous, Little Big Planet etc.
It might be a smarter move to jump in the PS4 wa...
I can't afford a $69 + taxes = $ 77 a game. CAD might lose some value but there is no way I can justify spending that much money for gaming. I am glad I get my ps4 early. I will try to get by with used games and ps+.
I can guarantee that the sales will go down. Not sure if it'll be a big or small impact but I hope it gets back $60.
PS plus is great but not sure if its helping Sony financially. Take it from me. The last Vita game I bought was Tearaway ( when it was discounted to $18 during x-mas sale and the last ps3 game of mine that I actually paid was Puppeteer for $7. )
Since then I didn't even spend a penny knowing that ps+ will give me decent 4-5 Vita&PS3 games every month. Not to mention, Vita library isn't that huge so I knew that games like Unit 13, M.N.Racers, Thomas was alone, and...
No, however when you only provide multiplayer, the developers shouldn't expect us to pay a lot for for additional maps + dlc.
If it's financially feasible for the long run
1- Reduce the console's price to $ 199 or $150 for all models
2- Focus on bringing quality 1st party games and make your profit there, not on the hardware because the hardware sales have been disappointing so far.
