Welcome to the 109th edition of the Co-op Podcast.
This week’s panel consists of Anthony Frasier, Charles Singletary and The Koalition editor-in-chief Richard Bailey.
In this week’s podcast, the panel discusses the fallout from the release and reception of The Order: 1886 and also what HipHopGamer discussed in his controversial new video about the latest Sony exclusive.
The panel also chew the fat over the latest prediction made by analysts – the PlayStation 4 outselling the Xbox One by 23 million consoles by the year 2019.
GB: "With this feature, we run down 15 of the most underrated games on the PS4 that never received the love and appreciation they truly deserve."
I've played 15, and I wouldn't consider any of those underrated TBH. Some of them are pretty high rated.
I. Not seeing anything on that list underrated. I never played concrete genie, the ASTRO vr,and one other but I forgot the name already. Nothing on there was underrated at all imo.
There’s only 4 of those games I never played, and no most of those aren’t underrated.
Digital Foundry : Released in February 2015, The Order: 1886 was a stunning PlayStation 4 game at the cutting-edge of rendering technology, with visuals that still hold up today. The game's release pre-dated in-depth Digital Foundry coverage, something we're looking to address with this new video! Ready at Dawn's game never received a sequel and never received a PS4 Pro upgrade, but thanks to developments with exploited, older firmware PS5 consoles, we can now show you the game running locked at 60 frames per second.
And let's not forget,
Ready At Dawn showcased The Order 1886 running on PC at 60fps at SIGGRAPH 2015

I still stand by my theory that this game just released at the wrong time. Almost every outlet spent a lot of time in their reviews ragging on the game for not being an online experience, everyone was in the Destiny hype train and at the time they wanted EVERY game to follow suit, bashing any game that didn't. If this were released after everyone realized how much that wasn't future, people would've appreciated it more. I loved it, and I'm always disappointed that we'll never get a sequel
People cried this game was too short. No people are crying because games are too long.
TheGamer Writes "Harmonix has proven plenty of times it can make Rock Band work without instruments."
I mean, yeah, but was anyone saying otherwise? The fact is people liked the plastic instruments rather than pressing buttons on a controller. They enjoyed the simulated experience.
"Work"? No, but to be good? It's absolutely necessary. Not having the accessories is like playing a lightgun shooter with an analog stick sure it works, but one experience is completely unique and fun as hell, and other is torture trying to make do playing in a way it was never meant to be played
I think CHEAP plastic instruments is THE reason why the instrument-genre ‘died’.
People invested in buying the game AND the peripherals, so the guitar, the dj-set, the drum, whatever, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. Great fun, great music, etc.
But then the instruments would break. A button would stop working, or your hits wouldn’t register, and that kind of hardware failure would end in you not being able to play the game as intended, and thus you not getting the scores you deserve.
So, now you had a great game, but a broken instrument, and nobody is gonna buy a new plastic instrument every 3-6 months in order to keep playing the game.
A solution would have been to release better quality instruments (obviously), at a slightly higher price, so you could have kept the new games coming and the genre alive, but sadly, that didn’t happen.
Bust a Groove, Gitaroo Man and Parrapa the Rappa were such good games. Neither needed any extra peripherals
As I mentioned on the show, the analysts who made those predictions have absolutely no way of knowing how Xbox One or PS4 will be in 2019. While it is true that the PS4 is outselling the Xbox One right now, i wouldn't make any guesses as to how long this could last. Right now I'm only focused about the games coming on both platforms as that will ultimately be the determining factor in all this.
It honestly doesn't matter to me. But the one that will sell more systems is the console with the better quality games that make an impact.
by 2019 ps5 and the next xbox will already hit the market but ps4 and xbox one will get supported still
PS4 will outsell but not sure by how much. Depends on so many things. I think by 2019, XB2 will be getting released
