That was fast. Way to go, 4J!

Does it work?

CaptainYesterday3781d ago

Anyone who's played it on PS3, how is it?

SnakeCQC3781d ago

its okay except for the weird audio problem i experienced previous to the patch. On both the 360 version and ps3 i have played 3 player in the tutorial mission thing and its sooo much smoother on the ps3; theres been no framedrops or anything.

Huh? Been playing the crap out of minecraft on Xbox 360 and never had framerate drops.

Tiechie3781d ago

Not to say it isn't good on consoles, because I can't, only played it on PC. But if your going to buy it, do your self a favour and get it on PC, there's so much more stuff to choose from with mods and stuff. It added many many more hours worth of play time, Classic gets old real fast.

SnakeCQC3781d ago

the only reason i got it on consoles was because it wasn't available on steam for whatever reason.
My first encounter with minecraft was actually kind of funny. I randomly say a youtube video and commented saying that it looks silly and i couldn't imagine myself playing it and someone replied saying that i should try it out. I did and then my brothers called it stupid for about a week and then tried it out and play constantly primitively destroying my stuff while i lace their buildings with tnt lol(ohh and the full circle thing happened a few time with friends too)

Once you have the vanilla MC itch it can be hard to shake.

I have the Android, iOS, Xbox360, PS3 and PC versions of Minecraft and use them in different ways at different times. The consoles definitely take the prize for simple play around a big TV. For everything else the PC gets updated faster and is prettier. And i have a server running.. The mobile version has moved in leaps lately and has nice redraw distances. Graphically better than the console versions at the moment but that'll change once the PS4 and X1 versions appear.

Having the wife and kid just be able to grab controllers and drop in is a good selling point for the PS3/60 versions.

AAWELLS093781d ago

I wish they would announce release dates for next-gen versions. I love me some Minecraft as it's a good game thats completely different and good to go to for a break from everything else.

BallsEye3781d ago

You can make minecraft in Project Spark :P XO beta planned for next month.

LAWSON723781d ago

Is this equivalent to the 360 version since it is ported by same dev?

mixelon3781d ago

From what I've played so far it's exactly the same.. For better or worse!

I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.

Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.

Name Last Name47d ago

I mean some sequels are objectively better and you don’t need to play the whole series.

Inverno46d ago

But most of these games have a story to follow, sure you can catch up with a YouTube vid but where's the fun in that?

LucasRuinedChildhood46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

A list like this isn't telling you not to play the previous games if you want to. It's just giving you legendary games to play.

But tbh, you don't always have to force yourself to play every entry in a franchise to get to the better ones.

- The vast majority of Witcher 3 players never played the first 2 and had a great time. The first 2 games aren't in the same league.
- The GTA games are self-contained with the odd fun reference. You can easily jump into any of them.
- The Shadow Of The Colossus remake looks and controls better than the original (plus it has a 60fps option while the remaster is just 30fps). New players will enjoy it more.
- Portal 2 is a lot better than Portal 1 and takes the concept much further gameplay-wise. Storywise, Portal 1 is fairly light too. Not that you shouldn't play it but realistically ... you'd love Portal 2 whether you play it or not (at lot of Portal 2 players have never played 1).

Bioshock 1 is the only one I agree with you on simply because it's one the best games of all time and arguably better than Infinite. No other setting like Rapture.

Looking at the list, I'd recommend playing Uncharted 1 before 2 but no doubt, 2 is the legendary one you have to play.

Inverno46d ago

I get it, but that's just my opinion on his opinion. I just think that before you play a sequel you should still play what came before it. Maybe it's just me but i find it fascinating playing through the first game in a series and seeing how it has evolved through its sequels. Like I said I don't disagree with the list, other than SoTC which I strongly believe the remaster of the original should be played above the remake.

AuraAbjure46d ago

Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.

Minecraft Bedrock Introduces Official Add-Ons To Marketplace

Minecraft Bedrock is introducing add-ons to the marketplace. The add-ons can now be added to many existing and new worlds.

Jin_Sakai67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Nice! Next up, shaders on consoles.

“A new update is improving how mods work for Minecraft Bedrock. Mojang has introduced add-ons to the marketplace.”

“These add-ons can now easily be added to new and existing worlds instead of being tied to a single world.
There are plenty of free and paid add-ons that will let you customize just about anything in your world.”

OtterX66d ago

So RayTracing is no longer locked to the NVIDIA maps? I know there was a workaround, but it will be nice to have easier access to all worlds.
