Bullshit, clickbait article. Who is complaining that Sony is giving them something for free when they clearly don't have to?
I disagreee with the statement "Dark Souls is a JRPG disguised as a better game"
I think the Souls games are excellent western styled action RPG's made by Japanese developers so there is some obvious influences by said developers.
It wasn't any worse than XBL. Sure XBL may have had twice the players, but you can only play with 8 or 16 at any given time so anything past that really doesn't matter. Also the apps that weren't stuck behind a paywall like Netflix and Amazon were usually better than their Xbox counterparts. Not to mention PSN wasn't doubling as an ad platform like XBL was.
It's nothing that's going to add value to Xbox Live since i'm sure that'll be required. I'm not interested. I stopped paying for Live after about 3 years when I realized that other platforms offer the same things but not behind a ridiculous paywall.
Good graphics are PART of a good game. Good design, good graphics, and good gameplay are the trifecta to shoot for. Also enough of this stupid graphical debate now! I'm tired of hearing Xbox fans who feel burnt by Microsoft feel like they have to trumpet this bullshit everytime they feel threatened by a PS4/PC title.
If this is true, this just means the focus of the game isn't a level grind. I am MORE than OK with that. I hope they have a new and innovative design rather than the same old MMO "Kill monster, complete quest to get better gear so I can kill bigger and badder monster to get more gear".
You know how I suspend/resume? I just pause the fucking game and turn my TV off.
Oh man, I have a few really good ideas. I hope i'm able to realize them well enough with this software to convey them well for other people!
Are the controls going to feel more like NFS/Burnout or more like GT?? I'm MUCH more of a fan of action racers than simulators so I hope they feel more like NFS or Burnout.
More award winning Kotaku "journalism" I see...
That's great because i'm VERY excited!
To know your enemy...
May as well be reading a book instead of playing a game. I always wanted in depth conversational options in my RPG's, but these games take it to a ridiculous level!
Don't spin the hype machine up so early, jeez! They'll hype it into the stratosphere, and when it doesn't live up to expectations (720p/30fps instead of 1080p/60fps) graphically it's only going to tarnish the Xbox further in the eyes of gaming sites and other gamers. To say visuals will be 'best in class' at this point is bad when it won't be true.
Every tech saavy person knows the cloud is there. But what every tech saavy person isn't buying is what Microsoft is trying to sell it as. THAT is not an opinion. That's fact. The cloud cannot anticipate with any amount of reasonable accuracy what is going to happen in a game before it happens. So all this crap about it being able to do physics calculations and AI BEFORE they happen on screen is bullshit. The cloud cannot pre-render graphics and then stream them to your Xbone BEFORE a...
EA paid him. The Microsoft deal had nothing to do with Respawn. The exclusivity deal was completely between Microsoft and EA.
The only thing Sony didn't do was hand Respawn a fat check for an at-the-time half finished game.
PC's
Tablets
Smart phones
Consoles
Why did they pick the PS4 out of all of those?
So... this is just setting Xbone fans up for some serious disappointment.
I haven't experienced the vibration malfunction, but I have gotten the problem uploading my saves to the cloud. That's not really a big deal as I don't think my PS4 HDD will fail anytime soon. At least before the 1.71 fix is released.
