This article (spread out over numerous pages to maximize clicks) is a joke. Apparently all of these games are both critical and commercial failures, and yet the writer even points out how Diablo 3 (number 1 on the list) was the best-selling PC game the year of its release and broke various sales records (selling 12 million copies in first year).

How does that constitute a commercial failure, exactly?

Apparently the author does not know, since their reasoning ...

I would really like to see Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, Wipeout HD Fury and God of War 3 rereleased as digital downloads on the PS4 online store.

Wipeout HD Fury already ran at 1080p 60fps on PS3 anyways, but it would be nice to have it ported over to PS4 since the current racing game selection is lacking. UC2/UC3 and GOW3 would be nice to play at the increased resolution/framerate as well, and I think in the case of Uncharted 3 it would also be a great multiplayer game for a lo...

Wow, that's a lot of people buying a bad game. Condolences to the owners.

Yeah, it's weird that Sony publicly stated that the PSN was having issues when it was working fine for you the whole time. I wonder why Sony would lie like that? Pretending that their service was experiencing issues? I'm just glad you're here to expose them for their lies. Good job :)

Agreed. We should definitely buy the game to check for ourselves that it is in fact downgraded. Excellent suggestion, Pandamobile. Let me just reach into my wallet here and blindly throw money at a product that may or may not be what's advertised.

Yeah, it's not like the trailers are used to advertise the game to people and it's illegal to use misleading footage or anything...

You're just bitter because you were outed as a fanboy and your site was blacklisted lol. Your credibility is down the toilet and you're still bitter about it. Welp.

I think framerate is more important than resolution for this kind of game. The action looks a little faster-paced than the Souls franchise and seems a little more reliant on correct timing during combat as well. All the greatest action games (Ninja Gaiden, Devil May Cry, Bayonetta etc.) all run at 60fps not just for increased fluidity, but minimizing things such as input latency, so it's a shame to see Bloodborne settling on 30fps when a higher framerate could be very beneficial in my opi...

Well, theoretically they could hammer the service so hard that Microsoft has no choice but to pull it down to save their core services.

As far as I understand, all of Microsoft's products are now tied to the Azure platform, which is why when the Xbox One launched for example, the hammering that the Xbox Live network took not only affected XBL, but also brought down Office 365 and impacted businesses around the world, all because these services of Microsoft's rely on t...

Wrong. They went out of their way to write "THE FOLLOWING TRAILER WAS CAPTURED DIRECTLY FROM A PLAYSTATION 4" before the Uncharted 4 reveal. You can go check yourself, the trailer's still up.

They said nothing about that being a cutscene, and the official line from Naughty Dog and Sony was that it was 'in engine'. The only mention of it being a cutscene has come from insecure fanboys desperately clutching at straws to try and rationalize and defend ND...

Funny you mention that, because laws were passed to protect consumers from just that with the requirement of, "Footage not representative of actual gameplay" or whatever the actual disclaimer is, to be visibly placed in any advertisements.

It seems developers/publishers are finding ways around that now (the disgusting bait and switch with Dark Souls 2 springs to mind) but hey, I guess since it's so common that somehow makes it okay?!

You're ...

Making excuses for developers/publishers deceiving you is foolish.

Would you handwave obvious deception and lies if it was an Xbox One exclusive? What if it was a multiplatform game? Plenty of people have expressed disgust at Ubisoft for example, after the amount of downgrades their games have received after they were revealed.

Apparently Naughty Dog are a special exception to all of this however, and free from the same criticisms that the rest of the industr...

Pretty sure Symphony of the Night is a Konami game, not Capcom.

The PS4 2015 lineup looks pretty barren as well, lol.

When I first started watching the gameplay footage I thought it looked underwhelming as well. That cave interior looked no better than the exact same locations we saw in Uncharted 3, so I can understand why people would think, "Really? That's it?"

When Drake got outside however, I was really impressed. To be honest though, that could just be because I love jungle environments, but I was excited by what I saw. I also like that the level design seems to be less li...

Agreed, every racing game worth a damn runs at 60fps.

Yup, I remember when Diablo 3 launched and it was £59.99 to buy from the PSN store. Every retailer had it priced at £49.99 for the physical version. Same goes for Destiny and a bunch of other games too.

KrisButtar has a point, though. We all know the profit margins on digital games are gigantic compared to physical copies, and not only are digital games sold for the same price, they're often even more expensive than buying at retail. It's insane.
