Blacklight: Retribution - Playing on a PS4 - Gamescom 2013

We at IGN sit down with Jared who shows us how to own robots on the Playstation 4 and he also talks about game features and the platform.

i hate IGN V-player, why not just use YOUTUBE

negative3900d ago

Seems like a pretty generic shooter IMO

dcj05243899d ago

What is a generic shooter?

towelie12883900d ago

played it on PC its ok nothing special

sorane3900d ago

Exactly what I thought of it when I played.

avengers19783900d ago

That's why I'm glad it's free

jdktech20103899d ago

I played it too but I'm more of a couch game so I'll DL it when it comes out.

I think it's a good change of pace. The legal wallhack is something you don't get a lot of it and it's a fun dynamic.

It won't replace BF4, KZ or anything but it'll still be fun and it's free so I'm not feeling like I have to play it

I agree, no thanks. I was excited for Titanfall when I first saw it, but then to see they decided to make it MS only, I won't be supporting Respawn even if they do bring it to PS4 later. That is one of the reasons I have stopped buying anything with EA on it and I'm to the same point with Activision and their stupid "MS gets it first, you have to wait" stance.

I vote with my wallet, and it's only one sale, but if enough people do it, they will notice.

Now about Blacklight Retribution. It looks like just as much fun as COD. In fact it sort of takes me back to my Unreal Tournament days. I'll definitely grab it. Good way to get in some frags while winding down after work. And best of all it won't cost me $60..

supersonicjerry3899d ago

you sound like a hater my dude. you missing out on games all I know .

iiwii3899d ago

I'm not having any shortage of good games to play. I can find good games without it coming from these "big guys". I don't have to buy a certain console because of what my friends have. I could buy both if I wanted to, but I won't.

I'm not a hater, I'm a consumer. And if a company takes a piss on me, I won't buy their product. Don't try to sell it to me a year down the road when people have moved on and are playing the next big thing and your sales have dwindled. That's not the way to treat a consumer that you want to do business with.

My money, my decision, my rights. Simple as that. Peace.

Obviously PC wasn't cuttin it, PS4 is a Juggernaut, makes sense.

letsa_go1901d ago (Edited 1901d ago )

That sucks

Majors1901d ago

Shut the servers down but let people host their own and keep these games active for those who want to play. Its bullshit when they kill a game completely when they could easy patch it for hosting / creating online content

Blacklight Retribution Servers & Official Support Ending in March, All Items Made Free

Hardsuit Labs has mentioned that the Blacklight Retribution servers are shutting down on March 11 for PC, though PS4 version will continue as is. All items in the PC store are now free.

LuzCB19871903d ago

Another one bites the dust.

Father__Merrin1903d ago

Remember playing this when I first got a ps4. Never good news to see games shut down I guess one day online only games can bite the dust

Sgt_Slaughter1903d ago (Edited 1903d ago )

This is why buying into these sort of games are a bad idea.

BlacKJesu51902d ago

That's like saying buying cod at 60 is bad..cause you know a new version is coming and you won't play last years

Sgt_Slaughter1902d ago

Not even slightly the same. I can still play Modern Warfare 2 because, guess what, it still works online AND it has offline modes. This applies to I think every Call of Duty game.

With Blacklight, everything you've ever purchased is gone forever after the servers are gone, and you can never play the game again.

BlacKJesu51902d ago

Is there no other f2p games.....Apex legends just came out..play the new version

masterfox1903d ago

See this is why online mp only games effing sucks and definitely will never support them. ;)

Giblet_Head1903d ago

Depending how much of a cult following it has, it could be revived by some mod team in the distant future. Similar cases have happened with games like 2142 and Star Wars Galaxies.

excaliburps1903d ago

Yes, I see this happening if the fanbase is there, too.
