Heavy disagree. It doesn't have to be top of the line when the specs are unified across the install base.
Can a 2006 PC play The Last Of Us? L.A. Noire? Batman: Arkham City? Battlefield 3? Etc. If the answer is yes, then nowhere near the graphical fidelity of a console, or said PC cost a fortune and a half.
Obviously PC will always be more powerful and can always look better.

I'm tired of all the PC elitists putting down console gamers. I think it'...

It's just a way to bypass text filters. I first encountered it circa 2000 and it was old and tired then. Don't bother learning anything about it. It's just been beaten into submission like memes.
Just something else from the internet of old that was reborn when hipsters came around and geek culture became "cool."
See: The Big Bang Theory

Yeah the ps4 renders the game and encodes it to a video stream which the vita plays back.

Absolutely loved it on Vita, actually missed public transit stops because of it.

Only game that's ever happened with.

I never would have tried the game if it wasn't put on PS Plus. It looked like a crappy "dudebro" shooter as someone else has said on n4g. The game was a pleasant surprise though. Definitely seemed like a game that was (almost) unfairly overlooked.

I enjoyed it.

As soon as I read this I was thinking the same thing, but the more I think about it....

If Sony were to do this, and that's a big if, it wouldn't be the first time they were to sell a a loss. This leads me to wonder: what would Vita's price have to be to sell at a loss? Minus deals this thing is typically $250. It's also a year and a half old. A year and a half is a long time in terms of mobile devices.

There would be a few benefits to this bu...

This is what I've been saying. Anyone who thinks sales numbers matter either A) have a monetary stake in those sales or B) are using those numbers to argue over which is "better."
Note that point B mostly just applies to the internet.

I just want to play video games. I already feel guilty about the amount of material things that I own. There is zero chance I am going to promote one or the other. If you think I am going to argue over which $4-500 purchase...

They are both fine consoles. They both ended up a lot more similar than I would have expected and wanted if you had asked me a year ago.
People fighting over the specs is getting old. People fighting over sales is getting old.

The fanboys out there fervently trying to "convert" others to their "side" are just like the Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses showing up at my door. I can do my own critical thinking, thanks.

It's either absurd or a good way to hook people into buying the proprietary memory.
If this turns out to be true then I would not expect a cut on the memory cards. That would be asking for too much.
This rumour is somewhat plausible because ps plus adoption will be greatly increased come autumn, and the profit margine on those memory cards must be huge, especially since Sony already had the factories in China to make consumer electronics.

Also, this web br...

I may be wrong, but i thought the 3g model wasn't in production anymore.
The thing I wonder about remote play is the bandwidth. Not concerned with it on the Vita end, just the upload speed that will be required for the ps4 to stream the video. Obviously this is not a problem when the two are on the same network.

That would be very sick.
I'm going to have to buy this one instead of just skeezing off of other people. Unfortunately that means I gotta upgrade my sound system, too.
Some other things I would like to see are ear practice, transposing song key, musical notation in addition to tab, and the tones more responsive to the guitar. What I mean is I don't want my telecaster to have a compressed humbucker sound as it did in the first game. Obviously the game just converts it t...

@MizTv while I might not be too far removed from doing the same, you still get a disagree from me. Don't make yourself look like a joke. It makes us all look bad.

Some props for not using 420 in your name though. The only people I ever knew who did that were other kids I played counter strike with when I was fifteen, and none of them had ever touched the stuff.

Wow, just had one of those moments. I was playing counter strike 12 years ago. Scary

Ahahhaha bubbles for hilarity.

Unfortunately, Destiny and The Division aren't launch titles. Also, I'm unsure if Planetside 2 is available at launch. Might be, but I don't know.
Looks like you could be playing a lot of battlefield 4!

CoD has become like EA sports games to me.
Let's keep the same formula going over and over and attempt safe incremental additions it improvements.
It's like when I watched the EA sports part of e3 this year. You can almost sit around with some friends, brainstorm some ideas for 10 minutes, and then place bets on which one they implemented. THE BALL IS SEPERATE FROM THE PLAYER AND HAD ITS OWN PHYSICS!
Honestly, I was upset that all the people working in the medi...

I'm not talking about eastern games versus western games. No where in my post did I mention games.

I'm talking about marketing. Come autumn the biggest money grab and install base to sway over will be the west. Are people forgetting that all of those preorders are merely a fraction of what the real market for next gen consoles are? Sony is a business. Their PlayStation brand has had trouble in the market. Install base leads to attach rates for games, accessories and s...

So if Sony doesn't buy them then they won't make games for ps4?
I'm confused.

4560d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

I don't think Sony will go for them. Sony should be focusing all of its spending power for western markets right now. Ps3 is obviously important in Japan, and I don't think Sony will have much trouble keeping the audience over the next few years as consumers transition to next gen. Sony is mostly secured in home consoles in Japan so the fight for consumers money should be in the west.

It really does depend on the game. An open game or a linear game can both be equally good or equally bad. An open story or a linear story can both be equally good or equally bad.

He does.

There's a reason that most FPS games in some way or another owe iD tribute. Look at Valve with their Goldsrc and later Src. (source) Also: Call of Duty and many more run on modified iD tech.
It's not just about them coming out with Wolfenstein, Doom, and Quake. iD have a long history of supreme architectural and engineering prowess. Ever wonder why Quake 3 was still being used as a benchmark when PC's that could run it at 700 FPS were around?
