Partly agree, while it would be nice to have these features, if something is implemented and fails due to incompatibility with just one game, people will hound them to death over it. "This 1 games doesn't work" never mind the other 9 that work for other people.

...Do you not want to have sex with her inside a holodeck? Because that's very short sighted :p

Well, technically only if a 5 is actually the average score of all video games reviewed. If the scores are skewed towards a higher number e.g. 7 average then we have 8, 9, 10 to show exceeding it, and simply more categories of bad to terrible below it.

tldr; 5 is the median and average number in the literal scale 0-10, but not necessarily the applied scale in videogames.

Here's the thing though, VR can't just be another way of displaying a visual image in front of you, or replacing the mouse to look/analogue stick with a turn of the head. It has to be done for a purpose and the way you control the game naturally changes.

If your game character is reliant an moves that a real person could not reasonably be expected to complete with their body then you're in trouble. Have to turn the camera fast to aim/see something? Unless it f...

Well yeah, you're a year behind, not going to keep many new players if they had to play A)All story missions B)All strikes C)Raids D) DLC equivalents, before they can play with TTK players. It's obvious however that you haven't played all of the above so you've missed out on a LOT of content so I'm not sure why it's weird that you did that in 6 hours, I'd be hard pressed to complete all the base story missions in that time.

I'll admit, I bought into it expecting more of a traditional MMORPG feel with quests etc. I knew it wouldn't be WoW levels with open maps and hundreds of people running around cities (though tbh I hoped having seen the city below the tower) as that would blow up the consoles I imagine :p

But even watching early previews etc. it seemed to sell itself as something grander than the 12 person instanced maps that we got, and ENDLESS REPETITIVE PATROL BOUNTIES OMG. Or jus...

@6.2.1 I can make Pong run at 1080p 60fps...that doesn't make it a good looking game. I would posit that ANY game could reach 1080/60 if enough sacrifices were made to it. The point is, do we want those specs by sacrificing effects?

@1.5.1 Not too sure how it's BS? I'm probably not going to buy TTK after house of wolves disappointed me however why would you not need the previous DLC to play the new DLC? I can't think of many online games that release new content but don't need you to be up to date.

If I release game A that needs you to be level 50 at the end, then DLC C that needs you to be 70 and start at 60, I can hardly complain when there was a DLC for 50-60. Personally I wouldn&...

Think of it this way. If they include a years PSN then you also include a years worth of free games like them or hate them. This means that people will buy less games at retail, too many lost retail sales will stall development and make it riskier.

Instead they know that people will buy the PS for the games and PSN for multiplayer (with free games an afterthought for most).

Without including it they appear more attractive with a lower price point and inc...

@4.3.2 I agree on D3, I downloaded the one with DLC when it was on sale and it was just so...mediocre, I just held down R2 as a mage and destroyed everything around me, graphically mediocre and storywise it struck me as so similar to D2, oh no...Diablo is back...demon generals...what I have to kill them in predictable ways? Whatever shall I do?

Gally is dead? Maybe I'll pick this up then...I didn't want to get it if noone would group with me as I quit before it went on sale again...I didn't know if there was another ascension method for the old weapons. Maybe I'll give it another shot when I get paid this weekend...

Yes. That is all.

Seriously though, this is a fledgling commercial endeavor for all involved. We need as few weak links as possible, if someone mainstream does this poorly it can damage the image of everyone else. Sony is known for good games, good consoles (and good TV's etc. even if their other divisions aren't as profitable). That can cross over to this device as well.

People know Sony, they know what VR stands for, so this is VR done by So...

@3.1.1 having cinematics isn't enough to move the story forward, the problem with Destiny for me has always been that the story is basically what one zone would be on any other story based game. Destony is more like Warframe, there's a basic concept and rough storylines in the game (Go here, get this, kill this because evil people) but that doesn't make it a STORY.

Compare that to any other 'story' driven game that's online, heck I'd say even LoL ...

Well...I don't have a Gjally as I was on holiday camping when Xur came out, I'd stopped playing as I was bored, was considering coming back for 2.0 but then realized that with 90% of everyone having Gjallys now I'm going to be insta kicked.

On the other hand I happen to like it, haven't played too much of it yet as I've had limited time but it was my understanding that it was a playable mystery, where you explored environments to uncover what happened to the village, I wasn't planning on hunting for keys or solving puzzles to unlock boxes etc. just to meander my way through a pretty environment and enjoy the ride, for the $17 it cost me that's what I'm doing (20% off pre-order).

...The play and charge kit is $25, so basically people are saying I should pay $25 to get the chance to not use batteries, and when it starts to lose it's charge I should buy another one for $25? So now I paid about $50 for the controller, and $50 for charging packs over its life, or: Buy 2 DS4s and rotate them as needed (+you now have a second controller for co-op) or just throw out the old one if it gets too worn/doesn't hold a charge well and buy a new one for the same price (and ...

I have a PS3 and a PS4, my PS3 NEVER gets used any more (except so my wife can stream netflix etc.) I try to play PS3 games but they just look so old and out of date, and load slow, I guess I'm not one for nostalgia. I think there's something timeless about the 8/16 bit era that doesn't translate into the 3D PSone/2/3 gens (At least for me, there are a few exceptions but they're far between).

I definitely would not use the backwards compatibility if it were ...

Let's do some napkin math. Say you don't game in the morning as you're getting your family ready etc. and you get home at 5pm (avg 9-5 job, your mileage may vary). Then you make food, spend time with the partner/kid and you can game for ... 3 hours a night without being divorced/dropped, that's 27 a week so 15 weeks at 3 hours a day every day on just one game, and you still won't see everything.

To me that's a valid complaint/concern. If you'r...
