@Tsunade Let me ask you a question specifically as a person who appreciates the DualShock 4: If you were given an Xbox One (or if you already have one) and you were given the option to be able to play it with the DualShock 4 would you take it?
@PSN_ZeroOnyx I still play PS3 games. The only downside with the Sony DS4 method is you cannot play wirelessly and there is no force-feedback, on the otherhand it is free!
Everyone has different tastes! For games that require long play sessions and don't use the unique DualShock 4 functions, such as Fallout 4, I find the 360 pad to me most comfortable [for me].
In the video I show specifically show how to set up how to use the 360 pad on PS4, but remember the CronusMax device is great for other configurations.
You can use a DualShock 4, wirelessly and with force-feedback on PS3 - not even Sony allow this! Or a DualShock 4 o...
I'm glad the gem microtransactions (that would have cost up to £50) has been removed. I backed the original Kickstarter and nowhere did it mention a mobile game. So backers felt there had been a bait and switch. Peter Molyneux has admitted he made design choices differently based on the mobile market - but these damaged the full game.
I believe Molyneux is trying to make this right however I suspect there has been irreparable damage done to the brand. The best thing...
One of the strengths of current-gen consoles is that they don't have a piracy market. With a game like The Witness which has received some amazing scores there is going to be a desire from gamers to check it out. If it is only available on console then people will buy the console version meaning more revenue for the publisher.
I think perhaps a staggered release might have benefited this. It might be annoying for PC only owners to wait, say a month, but it could potentia...
I think they will see more positive results because of the release of Street Fighter V. Now imagine if they bought Monster Hunter to other formats!
"“There were definitely factions within the team that did worry more about the competition and we spent a stupid amount of time on stuff like HD-DVD in response to the competition that just distracted us from our core beliefs. A new format for high-resolution movies was not important to us. Leading the charge in online gaming was – and the HD-DVD effort was a good example of how worrying about the competition can take you off your game.”

I hope Sony measure total accrued years.
I must be nearing 5 years. But as my subscriptions have expired I've always had a couple of days before renewing so I'd be sad if this kept resetting my PS Plus usage time. If it is accrued then that's a good thing and to be honest I'd happy with the poster with personalised stats. Although a £5/$5/€5 credit would be better!
I really want this game but there is still no word on whether there will be a Western release or even if English subtitles will be included. I'd be happy to import if there is.
Title should be amended to say Amazon USA.
In the leading European market, the UK, the best-sellers for Amazon UK are:
1) FIFA Football 2016 - PS4.
2) Fallout 4 - PS4
3) Call of Duty BLOPS II - XBO
4) Call of Duty BLOPS II - PS4
5) Fallout 4 - XBO
6) Halo 5 - Guardians - XBO
7) Star Wars: Battlefront - PS4
8) FIFA Football 2016 - XBO
9) Batman: Arkham Knight - PS4
10) GTA V - PS4

So many so-called gaming websites make it their job to hate because hate equals clicks? Look at the negative campaigns against Shenmue. But I think I can form my own opinion thank you very much!
If each part of the Final Fantasy VII remake delivers a high quality full game experience that adds more depth to each area then I am happy to pay.
Great news!
As the digital market grows it is important and necessary that we have sales data so we can know which products are really selling the most.
It will also be able to reflect surprise digital hits such as Valkyria Chronicles re-release on Steam and sales of games on PlayStation and Xbox such as Ori and the Blind Forest.
As GFK will continue the physical games chart it will be a must to be able to compare and combine it with the digital. The reason ...
@Septic. The quality of the game is not the issue, Rise of the Tomb Raider has got some fantastic reviews! But it is perfectly fair for gamers to discuss whether it has not reached its sales potential and whether the PS4 sales will be less then what they could have been.
I think Square-Enix were naïve in thinking that they could take the financial incentive from Microsoft, and there would be no impact apart from postponing their PS4 sales for a year...
The reality is that the ROTR sales on PS4 in 2016 will be significantly less than if the game had been released this year. The reason is in one year's time Uncharted 4 (a made & optimised for new-gen game) will have been and gone. There will be a ton of brand new games in 2016 inc...
@The_Infected. As hardcore gamers it's easy for us to dismiss these bundled games as 'old.' However to a person who is buying their first PlayStation 4 these are all brand 'new' games! They are also all of exceptional quality that can potentially provide more enjoyment then some recent releases.
If you are new to PS4 then what a wonderful selection of titles to get you started!
@SniperControl. You're right! What with the recent PlayStation features questionnaire I think it is a definite we just have to wait and see when!
Very clever advert that strides the balance between old school cool and pastiche. But it strides the balance well and subtly references the PS4's upcoming games. My favourite bit is the guy just having his own personal Batcave and the droid from Horizon: Zero Dawn.
How many game franchises did you count?
* Microsoft boss Satya Nadella in an interview with The Verge talked about Xbox Live being available on multiple platforms specifically Xbox One and PC. Although it did raise the question of whether he would be agreeable to it being available on other platforms.

This is strong evidence for the NX consoles to launch next year. It might be that it is based on the same architecture as the PS4/XBO which would make it very easy for developers to make games for.
I'm thinking that next year at E3 we might just have the return of a Nintendo live conference!
I'm sure developers and publishers alike have a strong opinion on the pressures/benefits of crunch time. However this substance-light opinion piece seems to have been thrown together to take advantage of the current demonisation of Peter Molyneux. Yes he over-promises (I backed Godus on Kickstarter!) but he is a man with some serious experience in the industry.
The criticism of Molyneux is further undermined because its author Ben Kuchera, publicly declared he got sick of...
