Not to mention the fact that the X1 version is coming with a free copy of Fallout 3 via backwards compatibility.
Jesus!
Why is the draw distance so terrible with this game? It looks like stuff fades into view merely meters away from your field of view. Are we in the 32-bit generation again?
Would it REALLY take all that much effort? You can find PS1 and PS2 emulators on smartphones. I find it hard to believe that adapting any 1 of those emulators to PS4 would be much of a chore.
I can understand why the PS4 can't do native BC with PS3 titles. The PS3 hardware was way too exotic for the PS4 to properly emulate it. However the PS4 COULD play PS1 and PS2 titles through software emulation no problem!
IMO what Sony needs to do is A.) Make PS1 and PS2 backwards compatibility available on PS4 via emulation and B.) Any PS3 titles that are on PS Now that people already own, make those games available for free streaming to those that can verify said owner...
Where do you find the time? I find it a challenge to find time to play the new stuff, let alone any old stuff.
Highs - Horizon: Zero Dawn and Uncharted 4
Lows - Dreams and PS Vue
"why would it disappoint anyone that it wasn't given time during the press conference?"
Because it damn well deserved it that's why. More so than some of the other things they spent time on.
Dreams basically looked like Project Spark on an acid trip. I'm so sick of all this "You be the game creator" bullshit. I don't WANT to be the game creator. If I did I'd go back to school and take programming. I want to be ...
So in other words…
"Ooooooh look how cool I am by not being impressed by an overwhelmingly and obviously impressive game!"
I was literally picking my chin up off the floor!
Agreed! They should've left out "Dreams" (I'm still trying to figure out WTF that was) and the PS Vue stuff and included footage of this, Everybody's Gone To The Rapture, and Rime.
From a purely visual standpoint, I was going back and forth between Uncharted 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, and For Honor. To me those 3 were hands down the best looking games I've seen at E3 this year.
I have a lot of respect for Media Molecule, however that "Dreams" demonstration was my "WTF" moment of Sony's conference. It almost felt like they were trying way too hard to be esoteric and quirky. Perhaps that type of "game" just doesn't demo well at a conference but I didn't see anything about that title that made me go "oooh I gotta play that." It looked like a trippier version of Project Spark to be honest with you. I would have rat...
I was glad that The Last Guardian was finally re-introduced and that it's coming. I absolutely love Team ICO games and I will most certainly play this one.
Having said that, for me The Last Guardian was far from the "star" of E3. Honestly I didn't even think it was the star of the Sony conference. Horizon was by far the best thing at Sony's conference and it was 2nd in "Game of Show" for me behind Fallout 4 and that was only because we are a...
Here's my top 10...
1.) Horizon
2.) Fallout 4
3.) Uncharted 4
4.) For Honor
5.) Recore
6.) Ghost Recon: Wild Lands
7.) Sea of Thieves
8.) Star Wars Battlefront
9.) Kingdom Hearts 3
10.) Deus Ex MD
There's no wrong answer. Your opinion is just as valid. It's just different points of view. For me, when I watch these conferences I'm more interested in learning about what I'm going to be spending my hard earned money on for the remainder of that year, not what I'm going to be buying 2-3 years from now. That's one of the reasons why Fallout 4 got "Game of Show" for me instead of Horizon or Uncharted 4. Remember, games like Uncharted 4 and No Mans Sky, ...
@Shineon,
You seem to conveniently ignore all the great console exclusive content that will never see the light of day on PC.
Well when your game looks THAT stunning there's no need for a CG trailer LOL!
I have both consoles, so I believe I can speak from an objective point of view. While Sony won more "style" points in their conference by showing The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Shenmue 3, Horizon, Uncharted 4, etc. However none of those titles will be playable until 2016 or beyond.
I felt that MS' conference had more real substance because they showed more exclusives that Xbox One owners can play THIS YEAR! That IMO simply carries more weight. Do...
Who the hell cares?? Are we really this desperate to have something to bitch about? Just play your fucking games and shut up! Let the companies worry about the politics behind it all.
