Days Gone: Playstation Experience 2017

It was one of the favorite booths at the 2017 PlayStation Experience and Skewed and Reviewed have posted some images from the awesome looking booth for the game.

Hardiman2365d ago

I can't wait to go through the Oregon countryside in this game! Crafting items, customizing my bike, taking down freakers, using them to take down other enemies and seeing all the wildlife both healthy and infected.

Garethvk2365d ago

So true. I just wish we would get an updated release window and if they plan to do a Beta before hand.

OB1Biker2365d ago

Shu said its supposed to release next year but I hope he got it right and not been carried away with the casual talk

Garethvk2365d ago

Next year is always the safe respose.

fenome2364d ago

Hell yeah, I live in Oregon, I'm ready for this!! Lol

Summons752365d ago

Still have zero excitement for this game, though I'll probably rent it, but that exhibit on the show floor is awesome!

Foxhound9222365d ago (Edited 2365d ago )

Seems like all you do is complain about things that don't interest you. Give it a rest already. You're complaining about PSX, you're complaining about Death Stranding, you're complaining about the SOTC remake, you're complaining about DetroitBH, you're complaining about Ghost of Thushima, you're complaining about Dreams and here you are complaining about Days Gone. I'm sure there's more if I just went to the SECOND page of your comment history. Seriously dude, I gathered all of this bullshit just from the first page. It seems that you're triggered and it looks like you don't even own a playstation or care to. Just shut up already and quit the stealth/concern trolling with the disingenuous last minute back handed "compliments."

fiveby92365d ago

Some people are just complainers. Can never just enjoy gaming but have to be a wet blanket every moment.

Summons752365d ago

Complaining about one of my favorite games of all time? and yes it is high time that Death Stranding show gameplay or disappear until it's ready especially when they are bragging on stage about how there is gameplay and it's mindblowing...doesn't mean I'm not excited. Saying I'm excited about Ghosts of Tsushima? I didn't. Dreams is Media Molecule so it's a day 1 buy but their marketing for it sucks. Maybe you should actually READ instead of only reading what you want.

Just because I can criticise something doesn't mean I'm not excited. Just like this, I'm not excited about generic zombie games #298483029 so that means I can't say something positive? Damn dude, according to you nobody should say anything. Must have driven you up the wall when people were complaining about loot boxes.

Foxhound9222365d ago

I love the unrelated reference to loot boxes.

It's fine to criticize bad things in gaming, such as DRM, loot boxes, pay to win etc..but you are one of the most pessimistic people on N4G regarding PlayStation exclusives.

Like I said, it's fine to voice your concerns. I just find it funny that your concerns are unfathomably trivial and suspiciously targeted at PS games.

Summons752365d ago

Yeah, you're the one making up fiction to suit their twisted reality and name calling, yet I'm pessimistic lol. Needed a good laugh today, thanks. Sorry that you don't believe in free speech and are coming to a site where people can share their opinions and you think everyone should do nothing but kiss a** of all developers and publishers. I said something positive about the exhibit despite lack of interest in the game and you think it's a complaint. You are the one complaining here.

Foxhound9222365d ago

@Summons child

Putting words on my mouth, yet again. When did I had to say we must will say only positive things? I was one of the first to criticize Sony's PSX, the only difference is that I'm able to see the good with the bad. I needed a good laugh today too. It's always funny to see people CONSTANTLY go out of their way to tell people that they're not interested in a game. It's always worth a good chuckle.

STFU already no one wants to hear your lack of excitement.

gangsta_red2365d ago

I love zombie games even when they were getting a little over saturated in the gaming market.

Still not entirely sold on this one but the premise looks interesting, will definitely give it a gamefly go.

Garethvk2365d ago

They need to ensure they offer more than just waves of bad guys. World War Z announced a game so hopefully this is not a trend of stand in one place and survive wave after wave without good context around it.

Mr-Dude2365d ago (Edited 2365d ago )

Really looking forward to this, exploring every nook. Hopefully next year.

Garethvk2365d ago

I am guessing ammo Wil be a precious commodity.

GamesMaster19822365d ago

I love me some zombie's. Film's, Games ETC. If it has zombies ill buy it. Don't care about the people who say oh zombie's again and what not. To me zombies are my fave horror monster ever, I love them undead bastards. And this game looks excellent.

Garethvk2365d ago

This seems to have some scope. I am curious if co-op or online factor in.

Days Gone Director Says Bend's Project Costs Over $250M; Says PS Co-CEO Doesn't Want 2 Zombies Games

Days Gone director claims Sony has already poured in at least a $250M in Bend's project; says Days Gone sold more than Death Stranding.

shinoff21831d 8h ago

Well that sucks. Seems they want more online trash. I'd rather of had the sequel if it was single player

MrNinosan17h ago

What online trash games did PS Studios release last 10 years?

Notellin15h ago

The past has nothing to do with the future. This is such a terrible argument. Everyone knows about their current live service push.

_SilverHawk_14h ago

It's so tragic what happened to days gone. It is such an amazing game but bandwagoners trashed it and it underperformed in it's launch year. Days gone is the best open world zombie game released in the past five years. I was recently playing it on pc and I'm still amazed by it.

Games are very expensive to make and it seems like it's normal for a AAA game to cost over a quarter billion to make so if a quality game like days gone greatly underperforms then people shouldn't be upset when they see a lot of GAAS. I still remember a lot of bandwagoners calling days gone trash but years later it's now amazing when it's considered a failure by sony.

If a game isn't the best thing seen since hats with pockets then a lot of gamers who haven't played it automatically calls it rubbish and whoever made it should be incarcerated

Cacabunga13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Co CEO prefers gamers to boycott.. so be it. I’ll never buy a gaas.
Just imagine buying a game you cannot replay in some years.. this shit must stop.

Days Gone did zombies in a very original way. The story was also so engaging. You actually only meet Zombie hordes later in the game. There are many more enemy groups to deal with.

MrNinosan11h ago

@Notelin
I am one of the few who bought Days Gone on release day and loved it completely.
However, "more online trash" is phrased like Sony has put out alot of trash online games.
We got what, 2 games? Helldivers 2 and GT7, 2 of the most sold Playstation games where both is loved by millions.

You, me and especially shinoff has no idea if Fairgames, Marathon and Concord will be trash.

Just because we (as in you and me) don't love or support online games, doesn't mean millions of other do.

And we don't know what Bend Studio is working with? We don't know if they're forced to make a online game or another amazing single player experience.

The only thing we do know is that it's not Days Gone, sadly due to poor sales the first 6 months.

shinoff21839h ago(Edited 9h ago)

More online trash wasmt meant how insee it comes across. I should've worded it different I was meaning the focus they currently have on it.

Anything online is online trash to me. How long did naughty dog spend on that dumba last of us multiplayer, how about Concord, or even the other couple we hear about. I fk with Sony because rpgs and their 1st party single player games. Been like that for years. I hate seeing them waste time, money, and talent on trash. I understand bot every game is gonna be for me but this focus they've seem to had on multiplayer is extremely disheartening. Even at the state of play the only things I was really feeling were Astrobot and silent hill 2 and I'm content with that, not everything is for me. It's just the online focus I hate. Ms bought up 3 to 4 wrpgs developers, Sony just ignores rpgs 1st party wise.

And a days gone 2 would've been much better then whatever online sht bend is working on. I do know sometimes I get very idk emotional. I do need to work on toning that down a bit lol

It would be a shame if it was true that Hermen never gave the franchise a chance simply because he didn't like it and they already had a "Zombie" game with TLOU.

NaughtyDog are most likely moving onto a new IP next so it would have been the perfect time to do it.

ThinkThink1d ago

Here's where xbox steps in and releases state of decay 3 day and date on ps5.

shinoff21839h ago

I mean it's not out of the realm of possibility at this point.

Grilla17h ago

Days gone 2 was canceled before Herman was in charge. That happened like 4 years ago.

vfl52316h ago

4 years ago he was head of Playstation Studios. He would've probably had a hand in the cancelation.

Notellin15h ago

Man two seconds of research could have saved you from this comment. Amazing work Grilla you fit in with the uniformed N4G community who speaks before verifying anything that they say.

Redemption-6414h ago

Maybe encourage people to buy the game at full price and not when it's heavily discounted or go on plus. If this game had sold well when it was full priced a sequel would have been in the works. They made a single-player game that most people didn't support until they dropped the price.

Cacabunga13h ago

The guy’s just a moron.. he should have stayed within game development. His choices will have a terrible impact on the brand in the long run.

tay87013h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Dude is pretty pathetic. Sounds like a guy who's girl left him for someone better. Always talking about days gone sequel that never was, even though he is no longer at bend and hasnt been for a while. I for one am not upset about the lack of a sequel. It is one of the worst 1st party games in recent memory. Completely jank, played like an xbox game. The only redeeming quality was the hordes.

excaliburps18h ago

Yep. Kind of weird since it wasn't a sales flop, no?

I know we have to take what Ross says with a grain of salt since we're hearing just one side of the story, but even so, the game wasn't bad at all. Heck, it's my brother's favorite last-gen game from what I recall.

The amount of zombies on screen, imagine that with the PS5 and SSD? That would be insanely fun!

Grilla17h ago

Most copies were sold on sale. Not enough ppl bought it at full price. I paid 20$ for it 6 -7 months after release.

Notellin15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

Yeah we should never believe the creators side until we hear the corporate/big business side as history has shown we should always believe billion dollar corporations.

What a bootlicker statement.

derek11h ago

@Notellin, of course you'll believe an embittered ex-employee with an axe to grind because it's evil Sony he's complaining about. You guys act like days gone was this huge success and somehow Sony hates easy money a sequel would have generated. The game was mid and so was the response to it. They're still supporting the developer who is making a new ip that could be great.

shinoff21839h ago

Days gone was fantastic. I bought day one but didn't get around to it for months. When I finally did I was pissed at myself for waiting so long lol

Well I don’t want 10 live service games, but they have no problem doing that lol. Ugh.

CrimsonWing6917h ago(Edited 17h ago)

Oh great so we only get what the big wigs want… y’know, the people that really have their fingers on the pulse of what their consumers want. Faaaaantastic!

rippermcrip14h ago

Well consider they know the sales... they do know what the consumer wants.

It sold shit.

-Foxtrot9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

But if it’s true what this guy says it sold better than Death Stranding

Yet that got a sequel and Kojima aside out of them both DS didn’t really NEED a sequel compared to Days Gone which ended on such a cliff hanger twist.

Can FSR 3 frame generation deliver the 120fps dream on PS5 and Xbox?

Frame generation technology has arrived on consoles, amplifying frame-rates and potentially transforming experiences.

Read Full Story >>
eurogamer.net
purple1011d 11h ago

adds between 8.3-15.3 milliseconds of latency on the game they tested, - no thanks

darksky17h ago

Base latency is 130.8ms and frame gen takes that up to 139.1ms. A 7% increase in latency is hardly a deal breaker.

Zenzuu17h ago

That's hardly a deal breaker and not really noticeable. Even the folks at Digital Foundry said so as well.

darthv721d 11h ago

Impressive results... sadly I don't have a 120hz display. I was thinking this technique could increase fps on any game that supports it regardless of the display.

purple1011d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

I have a vrr telly in the lounge,

On another point, what if it were the other way around where the developer aims for higher fps, then used something like pssr to make the resolution higher, that might be better?

Any which way, PS5 pro sure looks interesting now, being they have already doubled frame rate, with JUST just this fsr3.0

sagapo16h ago

It’s up to dev’s to implement FSR 3 support tho but most probably will I guess (hope).

Eonjay2h ago

Yes it would increase the framerate but it would add more noticeable latency. The impact of latency goes down the more natural frames produced. So a monitor that can push bast 60 will naturally allow the game to operate much smoother. Add VRR to this and now you have a much more enjoyable experience.

BlackDoomAx17h ago

Can it deliver the 60fps dream?

purple1018h ago(Edited 8h ago)

no, it delivers approx 80fps.

which is why I say why not target 60fps with this new tech and use the upscaling pssr, (Sonys version of Nvidia's DLSS, that seems so popular in the pc realm)

then we have best of both, better believe ps5pro will be doing all the above.

andy8517h ago

Now I've extensively tried it I'm not too fussed about 120 fps. Give me a locked 60 and more details and I'm more than happy

anast12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

120 is a bit slow. My eyes can't look at anything less than 260fps.
