spanna Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Eurogamer are disappointing me as nowadays they seem to be on microsofts payroll. They used to be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerinako Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Will cloud computing really be utilized though.Developers are only going to develop for hardware that they know is going to be available.Unless it's going to be a MMO game. Then mostly they'll be ignoring these online servers imo.Sony did make a bollock with the PS3/Cell; hence why in there launch video they went to such pains to explain why they'd developed there new hardware the way they had.(What the developers wanted, ease of use, powerful etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanna Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 E3 on 10th june will decide for me which way to jump after hearing peoples hands on views. I am a xbox 360 user at moment but the xbone is looking very meh whereas the ps4 has technology that interests me like Gaikai and (working) remote play on the vita.

spanna Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I see Sony have confirmed the ps4 will not have compulsory drm like the xbox one. 1-0 to the PS4 then although surely publishers will do it anyway as they think stopping second hand sales will get them more money.

Jam_Sandwich Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 PS3 nearly flopped at 425 pre recession Lets see what the PS4 launch price is Compulsory Kinect could be a big OG by M$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Burgandy Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 £349 for the PS4. I'll go for for mid January before Microsoft panics and cuts the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual_Boy Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 £349 for the PS4.Plus £50 for the PS4 Eye ( if you want it) I have to say I think the MS exclusive IP's may swing it for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam_Sandwich Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I'd wait 6 months on the fence; Sony owns far more first party studios than Microsoft do, and have the track record of pumping out a diverse lineup of exclusives well into the 7th year of the console life cycle.

Ron Burgandy Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Finally Microsoft have a solution for those with no internet. Get a 360 instead http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/gaming/news/a489371/microsoft-exec-don-mattrick-no-internet-stick-with-xbox-360.html It's not often you see a company work so hard to alienate their customers.

Slim Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Seen this? http://pastebin.com/uCmdh9jB Lots of reference to Steam, which is fair, what they're proposing is very Steam-like, and everyone's happy with that. Specifically mentions the long tail, keep the used games out of the market, and you can long tail discount the older stuff and give some money back to the dev's, just like steam does. Deffo a pattern of Release...Steam sale....humble bundle sale....free in recent stuff, and that works far better to me than bringing a game back to the game shop and buying another scratched disk.

Jam_Sandwich Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 http://www.incgamers.com/2013/06/no-the-xbox-one-is-not-just-like-steam/ For the record: I use Steam; but I'm definitely not a fan of a Steam like approach on consoles. It won't be the same; prices will be just as expensive as they are now and a multitude of other reasons. Although this time developers won't be able to hold the excuse of 'we have to charge high prices because of piracy/2nd hand games market. But more of an approach of; like it or lump it. Why even bother going for such restrictive practices on an Xbox One; when the PS4 has none of the rubbish attached to it. And at least with the online PS+ subscription. You get more from it than just unlocking the online content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
