Honestly ms killed it. They had a far better show and far better games shown. The only saving grace is how Sony didnt go as far as ms with the drm bull and its cheaper. If the Xbox had offline play I'd buy it but as is i cant support steam-like drm on consoles.
Now that I also have to pay for online on ps4 il buy a WiiU now and a ps4 down the road for offline games exclusively. I've never paid for xbl and il quit ps plus when I get a ps4 on principal. Both consoles l...
Or buy a WiiU and have no restrictions and free online?
Sad to see the damage control from both sides. Ms is raping you by adding drm but Sony is raping you by making you pay to access your Internet, something Sony fans said they'd never do. Now just because they're not adding drm its apparently ok to butt**** their fans.
I can't believe so many people think their only options are paid online with drm from ms, paid online from Sony, or no offline...
Xbox One has paid mp and online checks.
Ps3 has paid online.
Steam has online checks and you can't play without Internet.
Don't see how steam is awesome while the ps3 is bull. Yes paid mp sucks ass but I'd rather have that than not being able to play offline like BOTH the others. I mostly play sp and watch Netflix which are free and offline. When your net cuts out or you move or go to a friends without net your steam account is wo...
This is BS but we all knew it was coming especially with the cloud gaming and focus on social media/features. This is also why they couldn't do drm and block used games because they were already adding a bullshit pay to use your own Internet. If they did that on top of this fans would riot. Now they look like a savior while screwing us ps fans up the arse.
That said at least you can use Netflix, play sp, and all the main stuff I do with my ps3 right now. I've always h...
Fun?
If the console has mandatory online then all rentals could be handled through xbl so MS makes the money not blockbuster, movie gallery, and family video exc. You can't play without the net so its more convenient and cheap to rent a digital download or streamed game. Personally I won't get any console with online checks and no used games but the renting wouldn't be a problem with the cloud and Internet thingy.
This console is shit. No collecting games because once ...
I conquered that bit** bro. Def had to multitask and there seemed to be a specific way to beat a lot of levels. You had to place the blocking ones in specific places to herd the critters a certain way. Man I freaking love that game to death. The dlc got pretty crazy too.
Nintendo is the only one of the three doing what I want. A main focus on games, no paid online, no subscription for certain features, no online checks, no blocking used games, no online passes, and full BC with disk games and dd games. The only thing the others have is a little more power but im not sure having to play with Internet for sp and no borrowing games is worth it for the Xbox. I'm not sure Sony wont charge for used games and make me pay for ps plus to use cloud bc and neither w...
Viral what? Come on nobody on N4G is paid to promote a specific company. That's ridiculous, who would ever believe that, lol.
Speaking of awesome companies I'm so hyped now that MS is launching what's bound to become the best console ever. It's the only true successor to the NES, SNES, PSX, PS2, PC, 360, DS, and better than life itself. Did I mention MS is spending a BAJILLION dollars on all new exclusive games only playable on the new XBOX ONE that will be a...
Retro is like Midas, everything they touch turns to gold. I personally think a studio of their caliber needs to create new ip's. They already laid the foundation for a great new studio to pick up the Prime mantle. Don't tie down all the talent on the usual Nintendo franchises when they could easily put a few top guys to oversee new talent. More games equals more win.
I think they could do a killer shooter and a killer survival horror dead spacey type game. Make somet...
Bought a psp for psx games. Played the hell out of some psx jrpgs but that was why I got a psp. They need ps2 games working on vita. I already have all those games and the cool factor of Xenogears on the go has worn off. Now I want Xenosaga, FF12, Shadow Hearts, Nocturne, DQ8, and the rest. Make ps2 classics run and take my money Sony!
Yea I agree with gamerben. Do you remember when the n64 came out? I do. I started on a NES and from that to a SNES, Genesis, Gameboy, Gamegear exc. but when Mario 64 released it was revolutionary. I had seen 3d games before but I had never seen it like that. Running through the field jumping everywhere with the analog stick was exhilarating. It was totally unheard of for me to really be in a full massive 3d world. It was one of the most pivotal moments in my gaming life along with Mario Bros,...
I've had good experiences with most gamestop employees. The dude at my regular gamestop is awesome. He will track down any game I want, find one with a case, set stuff aside, all kinds of cool stuff not just for me but anyone who comes in. A lot of them are gamers who like hooking people up with great games. Others are there for a paycheck. Some may be asses or too pushy about preordering but who cares? Where else can you go in and buy old oop games? They keep games in circulation and pri...
I think its better to have one that does everything but if their goal is the living room they should have a sub $100 box. Set top boxes are cheap and need to be to compete. A hundred dollar 360 with no fees that only plays dd games on xbl would kill. Even my mom would buy one. She buys a bluray player or ricu box for Netflix and other stuff so might as well get some games thrown in.
He's a hypocrite. He liked MS when they put him on and made him a success. Without MS he'd be just another Indy dev.
Whatever you think of MS they have made many Indy devs household names. There wouldn't be Indy sections on consoles without MS blazing the trail. They made an affordable dev tool available for 100 bucks and gave a lot of people a platform to release games on. This guy seems bitter tbh.
This is ridiculous. I won't buy games if they have to be online, can't be resold or borrowed, and aren't physical. The only way I would is if the games are very cheap like under five dollars. Full games? HE'LL NO! I honestly don't see how pc guys love steam which makes you be online, can't resell games, no physical disks exc. it's the same exact thing were talking here. Steam does it and people praise them, MS does it and people go ballistic. Double standards much?...
Localize Dragon Quest 7, Type-0 vita or 3ds release, and Vs 13.
Maybe surprise us with a new Vagrant Story, Chrono, Valkyrie Profile, or a new game that's as good as those. I'd love a HD 2d FF or Chrono game like a modern snes title. Make a new FF Tactics as good as Fire Emblem Awakening. Do something other than FF13-3 please.
I love the WiiU but I would never use it as my only or main console. Then again if it had all the multiplats I could actually see that. This is what keeps Nintendo consoles as complimentary systems vs main systems. GameCube was prob my fav console but I had a ps2 for big third party games. Wii had a dozen of my favorite games ever but I mainly gamed on a 360/ps3. I want a WiiU for Xenoblade 2, SMT, Fire Emblem, Metroid, Zelda, and other first party titles. The fact I can't play stuff like...
Idk I own all systems excluding a wii-u and IMO Xenoblade 2 is def high end AAA. Zelda, Metroid, and Bayanetta 2 are top end and matter of fact Nintendo has the highest quality games period. Not always the most graphically strong but even in the last gen I remember Metroid Prime and RE4 blowing me away coming from a ps2. It was only the wii that was weak graphically. The Wii-U is weaker than ps4/nextbox but its damn good enough for me. Xeno 2 looked mind blowing and its getting a SMT Fire Emb...
So its just like the Xbox where publishers can block games?
Sony added a fee to play mp and they block used games? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!
