This is a situation where screens will hardly do a game justice. It'll have to be experienced.
That's a fair console collection.
For me, I own:
PS2
PS3
PSP
Vita
NES
SNES
N64
GameCube
Wii
Wii U
GB
GBC
GBA
DS lite
new 3DS XL
Xbox 360
Gaming PC
And an android device
On topic: when someday I buy a PS4, this is a must own collection for me.
I love gaming~
I first bought my PS3 in 2009, I wanted to play uncharted and wanted another controller, and I found the game and a controller bundled together at GameStop. I'm so glad that was my first PS3 game. It left a lasting impression on me.
Okay mister repeat the same hogwash that keeps getting repeated.
as a consumer, I do want the best possible experience out of my game; however, I want the best possible experience out of my game for all time. I don't want developers to start depending on cloud computing to run their physics rather than create more efficient ways of developing real-time locally run physics engines.
Local means, software that is run directly by the hardware that displays it.
As opposed to a function performed over long distances by another computer.
I should of known better than to use technical terms here on n4g which is populated mostly by console gamers.
Depending on cloud computing can actually cause stagnation since hardware developers won't feel pressured to produce local processors that are powerful, cost effective, and small ...
This is not the way to go. What happens when then game's physics compute servers are shut down? We should not try going beyond what local technology is capable of doing.
Looks like Windows 10.
Well it's impossible for them to bleed as much as Sony has been gushing, so I think they'll be all right.
Actually, they /can/ afford another failure. They have crazy amounts of cash. It'd still be stupid for them to screw this up, though.
This is so sadly true.
They should stop dubbing games that they know will lose them money.
If it had backwards compatibility, I would go out and buy one now.
Loved your comment Kingdomcome 247
Way to believe the propaganda! More consoles sold just means there are more idiots who believe that dribble than don't. Which is basically the same as society. Look at how many people think Apple is the best at everything!
Ummm... The pc market is larger and more profitable than consoles despite popular belief.
The gamepad-less version lacks gamepad, so it's down graded. Have fun with your watered down experience.
Good luck playing all ps3 era and future ps5 games on your ps4. The pc library makes your arguments invalid. Besides, Batman is coming to pc again later this year, and gears is available.
Also, pc can play all ps1, ps2, Wii, GameCube, snes, nes, genesis, and all handheld games. Can you play any of these on your ps4? A tiny number of exclusives, no matter how good can even remotely compare to the endless library of PC. And the titles shared are infinitely better. Batman famous...
I'm really happy that they included Final Fantasy XIV performance differences. That's what I'm most interested in since I am an avid player of that game!
Long live the Heirs of the Sun of Famfrit!
For now. They may very well come to other platforms. After all, Sony sold their entire stake in Square-Enix a long time ago, since they desperately needed to make their financial results look better. Also Square-Enix holds all of the publishing rights, not Sony.
