@ N64fan
So what you are saying is:
1) Forza 5 could have done a lot more, but they chose to cut the content and graphic fidelity (baked lighting, cardboard crowds, muddy textures on roads, etc) in leiu of dropping frame rate. In other words the only way they were able to reach 1080p 60fps was to do a lot less?
2) Forza 5 could have remedied these issues if they had more development time, but instead chose to keep it as is to ensure it remain...
Why would Drive Club be a tough sale against Forza 5 when they are on different platforms?
@ blkxseptember
What difference does it make if there are 1,000 or 1,000,000 players online when you can only play with 11 (6v6) at a time? Do you really think you are going to cycle through and play all those millions of other gamers?
@ lamboflucifer
Off topic and incorrect... Nice work. /s
You do realize that your example of the PS3 vs. 360 is completely false. The PS3 is more powerful AND sold more. It's still outselling both last gen consoles and will more than likely have the highest worldwide numbers by the time the console is discontinued.
@ opiewinston
I like competition as much as the next guy, but the claim that both consoles will die without competition is a stretch. I remember little competition during the PS1 and PS2 era and as a gamer I had a plethora of games to play on the Playstation 1/2.
When you say they didn't lie, do you mean about something specific or in general? Because I recall them lying about always on not being able to be "switched off". They also lied about Kinect being necessary for the console to function. They also lied about the power difference prior to launch (stating the One is as powerful as the PS4). Did they lie about the cloud increasing the power of the console?
@ gamertk421
I'm sorry for what I'm about to say... But you are wrong. See what I did there?
Not sure why there are so many people in this thread saying that an apology can only be given after the fact, when in fact that is false. An apology can be given before the fact, its usually lead with... "I'm sorry for what I'm about to do".
@ nukeitall
Your full of BS. You are going to sit here and say Microsoft did not realize what everyone wanted when before they officially announce the policies there was so much backlash from consumers. When it was leaked and when the whole Adam Orth fiasco happened, Microsoft could have taken that opportunity to realize what gamers wanted and back pedal before the official announcement. But they saw fit to continue to try and shaft gamers with backward policies, and only whe...
Is apologizing a month after a mistake exactly like apologizing several months afterwards? Is a mistake caused by others (PSN getting hacked by others) exactly like a mistake cause by yourself (willful intent to release anti consumer policies despite consumer backlash, only to backpedal after seeing lopsided pre order figures)? Do you know what exactly means?
@ Locksus
What technical issues are Knack having that would indicate it was rushed to market?
@ midnighter
I'm not sure if you are serious. Do you realize being a multiplayer only game does not automatically negate a campaign. Just because the game is MP does not mean it cant have a campaign. Single player and multiplayer terms describe the amount of players, not whether its a campaign or not. So yes, a MP only game can have a campaign. And because of that, the campaign can be judged as such.
You should make better use of your bubble.
You'll PROBABLY still be playing Titanfall? You don't sound too confident when using words like probably.
So you are comparing a HD remake of a game that was available previous gen on a different console to an old game that is from the same gen on the same console... As is they are the same thing. Why do Xbox fans always make the most absurd and irrelevant comparisons? Surely you can see the difference between a HD remake (remake of a game from previous gen/different console) and an old game from the same gen/console.
@ bleedsoe9mm
The reason people in certain countries cannot buy an Xbox One is because Microsoft chose not to release the console there. Have you given thought as to why they made that decision? Microsoft, as with any company, likes to make money. You think they are going to not release in a country they feel they can make money in (especially considering the abundance of inventory)? The only reason Microsoft has not released the Xbox One in as many countries as the PS4 is be...
^^^ uses the term exclusive, names different platforms.
@ Sourgrouch
Wow... just... wow. Please tell me your comment was a joke. Please.
Are you really trying to knock the technical aspects of PS4 games while mentioning XBox One games that are technically inferior? Forza is 1080p 60 fps, but sacrificing everything under the sun to hit those numbers, Ryse is only 900p and dips well below 30 fps in many occasions, and Titanfall is barely above 720p with no real technical demand (which lends itself to the fact they h...
I have two questions for you...
1) Did you consider Killer Instinct a prologue type game since many say its half a game?
2) Did you fall for that stunt?
@ Pope
The Killzone Bundles that Amazon offered (they were not official bundles) in no way can skew figure because anyone who bought them paid for the game, it was not given away for free. What's the difference of paying for the game with the console and paying for it separately... either way you are paying $60 for the game. It's a completely different scenario than a game bundled with a console at no additional charge, which could be seen as skewing figures.
Maybe he wanted pretty AND less expensive.
