Well never liked MGS (and yes, I played it)... well never liked anything Kojima produced, and that is ok. Tastes are different ... and I need the chance to save at any location I want :) ... and I never got into the story
I know there are many fans, but I really don't understand the hype that's going on, on everything Kojima touches. Just like many things these days, overhyped.
was it?
well, if it was, you must count it that PS3 was sold at a big loss. And also, in pure numbers, PS3 was successfull, the price of the hardware was the thing that almost ruined sony.
@voodoochild346
Every non-mobile disc based system has a warning, that it shouldn't be moved when it is active. What do you think why this warning is there?
no DVD/Blu-ray player (even the PS3) will rotate the disc at those Speeds the xbox 360 does.
Try it with your DVD drive in your PC. copy a disc and move your PC. Maybe not every drive does this, but there are many outside that scratch their disc at top speed. and the 360 drive has one of the fastest dr...
yeah,
PS3 + XB306 + Wii
vs
PS4 + XB1 + WiiU
I think the new gen is lost with these numbers.
But not every Wii user bought games. The console sold very well, but that was all about it. Just a bigger number.
If you just calculate a bit, you should easily reach those 18m sold consoles.
Last year before black Friday, they had ~10m shipped (and more than 8m sold). Alone with the good sales in the US of the whole year + 1-2m of rest of the world sales, you get this 18m figure.
This years holiday season was really big in console sales.
No, they can't compete with PS4 in most countries (even sony doesn't know why they are so successful), but nonetheless xbox one is selli...
Well, here in europe, the price is ~70€ (inc VAT) and almost stable. That is currently $~76,52. But it was also ~70€ when the € was stronger and the $ much weaker.
The good thing is, that almost every title is available for ~40€ after one or two month (most not all), nowadays.
Well must agree here.
No real Mario/Yoshi/Donkey ... Jump&run or Racer
a Zelda Remake (well a Zelda I didn't like on the long run on the Wii), the new Zelda (if it really should be out this year, after all that time)
Some niche and 3DS titles. Sry, but if you are almost the only publisher on your platform (WiiU) I would expect more.
And yes, Star Fox is also a niche product. This type of game died years ago. I don't believe nintendo can revive that ...
nope.
I don't like to have something on my head to play games.
Also, look how driveclub looks @30fps ... now imagine how it looks @60fps and higher res (half time to render a frame) ... now imagine how it looks @90fps.....
I don't want see this
VR is dead on arrival.
It is just a niche product and far to cost-intensive, to be a huge success.
soul suspect made many sacrifices on PS4 to get between 40 and 60 fps (e.g. missing AF).
Maybe it won't be 60, it will be something between 30 and 60.
Or, xbox would just be ~40+fps and so they locked it at 30 to keep it clean. there is no way how ps4 could do the double work. I hope it is locked 30 and locked 60 and not something in between.
There are many fixed function units on the old nvidia chip, that don't exist anymore. The features are all there, but some of them were almost "free" in the past, now they cost something. Yeah, the graphics chips are much faster now, but it is hard to emulate some special features of the chip, that are no longer used that way.
Licensing is another thing.
Even if I want it (BC for PS2) I still think they are much to late with this feature. This should have been available for PS3 (so PS2 BC on PS3) and not only for the first PS3 gen. It shouldn't be that much of a problem to emulate the PS2 on the PS3. It may not be the fastest thing of the world, but PS2 BC now is just much to late. Most of the PS4 gamers never had a PS2 just because they are to young. Most of them wouldn't even play a PS2 game if they even can't play xbox one game...
I wanted to buy a BC PS3, but they failed to fast and were loud as hell. So it was a no go for me to use the PS3.
Later I bought a small PS3 and just used it a blu ray player. I really didn't like the controller and uncharted had an odd kind of lag, so it was unplayable for me (don't know why or if this was normal).
My PS2 is still in action, but games are really ugly now because of the SCART cord ... well games weren't made for those big TV screens and those old p...
Because I'm still playing those old games. E.g. viva pinata, Fable, Mass Effect, Gears, ...
And the PS4 can't read CDs ;)
So PS1 games could only work if you have them digital.
@vanity29
the cash they could make is bound to absolute no work on their side. So I don't see a point of not letting Microsoft do this. But well, then again, how many Rockstar games are not multidisc-games?
Multidisc-games are currently not supported, and aren't available in xbox live shop, too.
If your memory access patterns are not optimal, you can loose some gigabytes of bandwidth. AF off is the simplest way for the developer to tweak the performance right before launch.
Is there nay physical copy of forza 6 available?
Didn't see one in the stores.
let it be a 9GB xbox 360 game.
didn't see one mobile game that can match those.
But hey with a gigantic cooling system in your backpack and a big car-battery, it may be possible.
what about memory
what about bandwidth
what about usable cpu flops
what about power
...
But I guess in theory we can have PS4+ grahpics with a wonderfull 1 fps framerate
