Pt2 of 2
Sony has Gravity Rush (1st party), Knack, (1st party) Little Big Planet (1st party), Horizon (1st party), Puppeteer (1st party), Tearaway (1st party), EyePet (1st party), Beyond: Two Souls (2nd party), DRIVECLUB (1st party RIP Evolution Studios) and last but certainly not least and the series the faceless voice in the video is blaming for the current plauge of all of gamings generic-ness... The Last of Us (1st party)!
Sony brought simulation to t...
This utterly moronic opinion (if not satire) is exactly what John Carmack was talking about.
Games aren't changing.
But is that a bad thing?
Look Rez was unique but when a game that comes along later that does similar things does that make it an uninspiring clone? ...Well in truth it could be, but it also might fix some broken aspects of the original game while adding some new twists. One FPS is like all other FPSes in one distinctly inextric...
Please explain why Spiderman, DRIVECLUB, The Order 1886, Ratchet and Clank, WipEout: Omega Collection, MGSV, Uncharted 4, etc, etc looked slightly better to significantly better than most of PC exclusives?

Review some Red Faction: Guerrilla gameplay... Then try spewing the BS you did earlier again.
Remember Red Faction: Guerilla had fully destructible environments and it ran on Xbox 360 natively without any internet connection... That's impressive because the X360 is weaker than PS3 and yet full destruction without any need for "cloud power"!
If Switch hits 10 mil by march it isn't doing as good as PS4. Not a failiure by any means but not at all selling at a rate that could cause a manufacturer of Nintendo's age and experience to still not be meeting demand which is the point of the article.
Where I live there is no shortage... But the article and most people here disagree. Fine... The question now is why is there a shortage now 4 months after launch when Nintendo is selling less than 1 million Switches a month?
...
Can't believe people are still defending these "not fake" hardware shortages.
To everyone thinking Nintendo is not holding back but is also loaded qith cash and smart as a business and capable as a manufacturer... WHY ARE NINTENDO "unable" TO MEET DEMAND?
Look at Sony selling over 1 million PS4s in 24 hours. PS4 is still selling at a rate over 1 million units a month (when looking at the current total sales and months on the market).

What was that... Please it isn't amature hour, is it? Well anyway.
Here is what Sony and Nintendo are worth as of July 14th 2017.

Rendering takes huge amounts of time and mountains of cash.
You do not even know.
Post mortem of Monsters University by Pixar.
Some scenes were comprised of geometry in excess of 1 billion polygons and each frame took ~49 hours to render on a server blade...
WELL IT'S A GOOD THING TAHT THEY HAD OVER 400 $45,000 SERVERBLADES TO WORK WITH!
If they didn't the movie would have finished rendering around the 2740 Olympic games (at...
Talking about current day CGI and games... Ratchet & Clank the game accompanied a CGI movie release of the same name which the game compared favorably with...
So pardon me but I am at a loss when people say that games aren't competitive with cinema CGI.
See real is the bar and when it is met there is no further you can go as far as visuals are concerned. Cinema CGI isn't even there yet a lot of very dazzling and complex effects work still looks off.
Look...
Math... MATH MAKES IT HAPPEN!
As far as I am aware the "Scapes" are pictures with loads of pointcloud data associated with them. The pointcloud data acts like a mask alowing objects like the games cars to exist in the scene and occluded by objects in the scene in 3D space.
That's my laymans perspective... I'm sure there will be some info about how this works hopefully at GDC.
Actually I have to agree with Aurenar on this one. Insomniac never really hit it big even with the successful Spyro and Ratchet and Clank series most people still haven't played an Insomniac game much less had something to say about their work...
A game like Spiderman can propel them to the top of the heap because the IP has that much going for it already and Insomniac looks only to constructively build on what made Spiderman successful.
I have played all but one of Inso...
How do you figure that?
Sony first allowed cross-play with PS2. Forgive me if I am mistaken, but wasn't PS2 the undisputed market leader of that generation with 10s of million more units in the wild compared to Nintendo and then then market newbie Microsoft?
What was Nintendo and Microsofts stance on crossplay from 2000 to 2004?
OH!!! They didn't have one.
That's what I thought.
@pinkcrocodile75
Microsoft's Xbox Live has been hacked multiple times in the past as well.
There was a story I remember reading about when MS accidentally lost at least 2,000 XBL users info to hackers during some sort of Halo survey/contest... I couldn't find any links to this issue however. How strange. It's a pretty random thing to just make up.
Point is MS isn't immune to hacking either. Users info got out and was used against them time and time ...
Why are people hating on this idea?
I get that they should have picked a name they would be comfortable growing up with just like when it comea to getting a tatoo or naming their own child... But this is a digital name and almost every service allows a username to be changed. Of course they chould just alter their "real name" in their account and choose ro have that display as the default to everyone... And that's free... So... There is that, but the ability to change y...
Has this been implemented yet? Is Rocket League even on Switch yet? Isn't the new Minecraft update bringing cross-platform play, but currently unavailable?
MS's implemention of cross-play isn't proven yet to my knowledge.
I disagree. While it's true that this isn't an important feature it's not something the PS community is against. Furthermore PS as a company or brand isn't going to regress (cancel game, force you to use U-Stream, Skype, a cellphone to communicate with others etc, etc) because people are asking for cross-platform gaming. That's just dumb, not sure why you'd even suggest that vould happen and I am not saying that people would argue against more quality games and network...
Agreed. PlayStation gamers want to play but aren't able to. This isn't something I necessarily disagree with Sony imposing on the fanbase due to the amount of control MS wants in the case of Minecraft. When it comes to Rocket League I need more information as to why MS and Nintendo are disallowed yet PS4 and PC crossplay is up and running. Some details about exactly why crossplay isn't available between other consoles when playing on PlayStation is being withheld mark my words.
SR388 is part of the militant Nintendo fanboy force.

"Forza does not use old assets like 2D trees along with low polycount cars just to bloat the number available. They also all have in dash views available."
No instead T10 makes new low quality 2D trees and high geometry but sometimes inaccurate car models while retaining all the same graphical and gameplay bugs some of which have plauged the franchise since it's inception like the borked shadow hierarchy and newer immersion destroying bugs...
