Xbox One isn't out yet, buy a PS4. MS lack of respect for indy devs probably influenced this decision.
You know a lot of fair skinned people can't sun tan right? Or should he fake tan like those losers on Jersey Shore? Boogie is a cool dude and obviously is comfortable in his own skin. Your comment says more about you than you realize.
Cliffy is once again full of shit and just trying to find a scapegoat for people like him who will still anyway nickel and dime consumers. Do you Mika honestly think that with DRM pubs and devs will magically say "Hey guys, lets ease back on the microtransactions, we don't need those extra $10 million because we have DRM now."? No, we will never see a cutback in microtransactions and dlc, the cat has been let out of the bag and it's not going back in. In fact, the FTP model ...
So...since you won't need to be online to play games what happens to games that were heavily using "the cloud" for computations. Will those games still be possible to play or will they suffer quality loss? Or does this expose "the cloud" for the bullshit that it is?
@dennett316, was going to post the same thing until I saw your comment, agree 100%. "Server side cloud computations" is just marketing bullshit to disguise drm. Xbone and PS4 hardware are more than capable of handling any computations of AI or whatever else, unless we're going to be playing against IBM's Deep Blue.
A couple points:
1. This whole debate based on pre-order ranking is getting old fast.
2. Out of the top 5 bestsellers list for video games Sony has 3 spots with different bundle SKUs. So I'd imagine that the PS4 is still outselling the competition. The other spot goes to TLOU ;)
@prophet, wow! That's some serious sales!
I'll take Infamous Second Son, KSF, Drive Club and the Order 1886 over Titanfall, DR3, Forza 5 and Spark. Personal opinion though, ymmv.
And those effin Bing commercials every commercial break. No MS, your search engine still blows I don't want to use it.
No, digital sales aren't tracked.
I believe it's been debunked years ago that PS3 games dont sell. Maybe not Halo numbers but I know GT5 is up there, 8 million+ last I saw.
If it's true, congrats ND. Not even a full week either. I haven't bought my copy yet so that number will go up +1.
Nothing to do with ethnicity, devs are gamers like the rest of us. To think that they only play games on the console they make games for is silly. Mario and Luigi I'm sure were inspirations for many devs across the globe.
@onyoursistersback,
I agree, I was also underwhelmed by Titanfall. There were some cool elements but it screamed COD, which I've been over for a couple years now. The maps, buildings, grass, and gun sounds looked and sounded just like a COD game. Its basically COD Future Warfare.
Quick Time Event. It's when you're playing a game and the game prompts an on screen button command to do something. As in the demo of Ryse there is a QTE to finish off an enemy.
I'll sum up in 1 word why this design decision was made...KINECT! This is still a kinect game at heart so of course they want people to feel like they are good at a game or that kinect is accurate. Day one release game and already kinect is having a negative effect on the quality of games. Shame on you Crytek and shame on you MS.
@ MysticSrummer,
Considering that the website the article came from is owned and operated out of the US, and that's where I live, you can take that comment and shove it up your ass!
I know, but I always talk myself out of taking the plunge. Like now, I'm putting all my hobby cash towards paying off the PS4 preorder, and probably the only gaming related thing I'm going to buy from now to the PS4 launch is TLOU. Are all racers wheel compatible? I wonder if Drive Club will be.
I've always wanted to get into a racer like GT but I hate using a remote to play, it just didn't feel right and a legit wheel and pedal setup costs too much. Maybe one day...
Sony may own the rights to R&C and Resistance but it was all Insomniacs hard work. I said before and still feel that Insomniac is mismanaged. Their games show they have talent but no direction or consistency. At one point they were considered a top tier studio, but not anymore. We'll see what this new game brings but so far I dont like the way it looks.
