Ummm. I was speaking for myself??
It's my opinion...nobody is asking you to agree....
How can anyone not see Wii U as next gen? It's a fact that cannot be disputed....
Nintendo NES followed by SNES = Next gen
Nintendo N64 followed by Gamecube = Next gen
Nintendo Wii followed by Wii U = Next gen
Throw all the specs you like, make all the comparisons you like, but a next generation of anything has nothing to do with what a competitor is releasing (in terms of specs) as it is the 'Next Generation of Nintendo hardware'....
I'll tell you what they should do.....
Make GTA fun again!
1) GTA3 ...incredible (at the time)3D entry of series.
2) Vice City ...Best story, style, soundtrack in a PS2 game ever!
3) San Andreas ....Huge, fun....new character building additions.
4) GTA4 ....Boring, slow..unnecessary distractions (Dating, Buddy hangouts), depressing story. Average characters...
5) GTA5 looks a combination ...
So the whole opinion 'Hate' Piece is because of parental restrictions??
I call BS!
This (so-called) writer begins by praising Sony's previous hardware and presents himself as a lifelong fan...then goes on to offer his hatred for Sony because of parental control issues....???
Smoke & Mirrors cannot cover up yet another 'Sony Sucks, Sony is finished, Sony is almost dead...soon to be defunct' hate article that are becomin...
It'll still sell insanely well....but I think a Pre-Christmas release for GTAV would have been monumental.....
I hate playing the waiting game :(
I don't see why peeps are bothered if it's not final...at least Sony are prepared to make their customers happier....and don't we want an evolving service?
....My only concern is that the whole thing performs better than the current store.
One of the best things about this current gen of consoles is the UI upgrades and refinements....you feel a sense of re-fresh...almost like a new console.....but at the expense of regular downloads/maintenance & patches.
We have a lot more in common with our PC counterparts than they'd have us believe.
Next gen think more of the same....not that I'm complaining ;)
What's with the 'Fail' articles nowadays....PSN,LIVE,PS3,VITA, Wii U...360 has no games....now an unreleased console (PS4) is the latest subject of doom & gloom??
...Jeez, these grumpies always trying to suck the fun out of gaming!!!
I so miss the 16 & 32BIT era :(
Edge gave this a 9.....yes Edge!!!!
Day 1 :)
I really don't get the backlash Nintendo/Platinum games are getting over this....Sony, and now MS have been doin this for years....
Bayonetta (IMO) is hardly the loss some make it out to be....that being stated, I have a funny feeling this game is going to look and play amazingly on Wii U...a glimpse into what a bit of extra ram can do (for consoles, visually) for a game.
Let Ninty have the game, lord knows they should be applauded for trying to give the ...
If you have (bizzarely) yet to experience this trilogy...this is an amazing purchase....it's a double coo for PS3 owners who never had the chance to play ME1...which is long overdue!
I myself already own 2&3 (digital purchases), so will prob pick up ME1 digitally too....
Kudos to EA for once!
@ChunkyLover53
You refer to 'Idiots' ...?
Only an 'Idiot' would see this as a positive move by MS in light of the benefits that PSN+ offers...infact only an 'Idiot' would be grateful for such a modest incentive.
Looks that most of the 'Trolling Idiots' you refer to, are actually pissed off Xbox Live Subscribers...
If by telling the truth makes me a 'Troll' ...then I am indeed worthy of ...
'Nothing' ...would have been better than this.
All this demonstrates is that MS are a tight bunch of ......and they don't really give a rats ass about their users.
This is an insult to ALL the loyal Gold members that have supported MS.....2% rebate??
...MS make PSN+ look even more attractive than it already is....talk about 'cheap' !!!
Which ever way you wanna look at it....this is totally embarrassing....shame on you MS .....Shame! :(
When are you suckers gonna learn?? ...there's a PS3 superslim with your name on it....so come on, All are invited :)
I don't think the article was a comparison or intended to ignite a LIVE Gold vs PSN+ debate .....both offer their own features to their respective subscribers.
@Septic
...and MS has recently announced a rewards scheme linked to achievements, so maybe MS are paying attention?
The same ill wishers that want the PS brand to die, are the same pests who will mourn it's demise....it won't happen, GTFO!
Let me start by stating I hope the Wii U is a success, as success is good for the game industry....
....but it is fool hardy & extremely presumptious to believe Wii U has already 'Won' .....
MS is going to market the pants off their next box, and in a more diluted way, and to some extent, so will Sony.
I see the Wii U as a snack between the main meal...whether to you that will be MS or Sony is a matter of personal choice.
...
I am a plus member, and if it was not for that I would have missed out on certain games....Starhawk being one of them!
Starhawk is a game I probably would never have purchased otherwise, but now I have played it (Storymode) I cannot believe how awesome it looks and plays!!!
IMO it's like a hybrid of RDR and a mature (Nintendo IP) Starfox.
The PS+ model is very cool indeed!
* I would love to see the freebies extended to movi...
Even if Sony bowed out of the console race....they will always produce games...
If I can still play Sony's top IP's Uncharted games, Killzone, Infamous on a non Sony console...then no biggie.
>Do you play consoles or do you play games?
Kenji & 007 Legends can go on that list too.....aweful!!
