Playstation 4

Quote :

Still don't think it's fair to call ZombiU poor because it's a "marmite" game too, I, in the end didn't really get on with it but there's no denying it's a top quality game.

Also playing the demo for a whole 12 minutes doesn't exactly back up Mas' opinion either. (thanks daily log thread in the wii U section)

Played demo pods of it and played it with ibbsters.

I don't believe it's fair to call ZombiU poor just because one personally didn't enjoy it. ZombiU is a great piece of game design that intertwines the GamePad to enhance the survival horror experience it presents, but it includes many mechanics which aren't for everyone.

That explains everything, must have been a spider somewhere.

Deja vu

No this has the window in it.

I've once been reminded never to buy a console at launch again. Wii U was an exception since Nintendo delivered an exciting new way to play the games and the system itself was fairly affordable, but I'm going to hold out on PS4/Xbox One until I see more developer support.

I agree head, but I'm a sucker for new shiny things.

Contradiction alert!

Another PS4 review COD:Ghosts with a Meta-Critic score of 78, and some how a user score of 32.

And I own it. Also am I right in thinking Andy likes Trophies as 7 games have trophies list now on PS3Trophies.

Not sure if this clever advertising or not, 1st time 2 series has been seen in a game and both it & the game look like there coming out the same time.

Sorry abut 3 in a row but check this out yes that is a official video.

Also from blizzcon we've found info on the PS4 version Diablo III, it's sounding good has anyone played it on anything else.

I'm definitely going to be waiting a year or so before getting a PS4. There's the fact that i always like to get an idea of the failure rate of consoles before i buy having had a traumatic time with a full price launch PS1, an anxious time with the not quite but nearly launch 360.

Not only that i really can't see a killer app for PS4 or XboxOne at the moment. I've kind of grown tired of the usual suspects and i'm totally against the idea that paying £40-50 for a game still doesn't get you the full experience and for that you require a season pass or unlock codes etc. I blame Microsoft tbh but that a debate for another day.

Of the PS4 launch games i would have Resogun as i like Housemarque games. I would also get Flower, Pinball Arcade and sound shapes (hopefully free or cheap) as i already bought them on PS3/Vita. N++ should be good too.
I'm kind of hoping that with the PS4 having quite a bit of focus on Indie games that i'll still be able to play "next gen" games from Sony via my Vita for quite some time.

That said, if Star Wars Battlefront turns out to be amazing then i'll be in like Flynn.

Sound Shapes and any other classic will be free if you already own it.

Sony have scrapped both types of passes and Killzone Shadow Fall all DLC will be free.

Also about launch problems, I've put a bit in the launch thread about mine.

Oh dear! Lots of reports coming in about ps4's breaking down, surely that isn't a good sign before it goes on sale to the general public.

I thought this might happen with the new consoles. The Ps3 and 360 weren't all too reliable until their slim releases so I had a hunch the trend would continue. The more complex something is the more likely it is to break.

Yep there has been, it's about 2% that's having issues which seem to be related to the day one update. Sound familiar to any Wii U owners.

For me, the strangest reveal of the day is that Shu Yoshida was disappointed by Knack's review scores. He expected 7s.......

Seriously, why would you even say that?

So The PS4 launch event was 4am this morning,

Started off with Infamous Second Son,
Three launch titles in Killzone, Knack and ResoGun
Then Octodad

Then starts probably, with a look back at the year PS4 had
Last of Us DLC, which still I don't know why it's at the PS4 event unless it comes to PS4
Uncharted, Yay Uncharted

More Knack and Driveclub which is looking like a decent racer.
Some Yapping about the PS4.

New Infamous trailer which is looking good, with a launch date of 21st of March 2014 for North America at least. And there's bundle coming.

More Yapping, Trailers etc

Yoshida being asked about Last Guardian, say's it looks pretty and he's played it but when asked about which controller he used he avoided the answer

Destiny now being showed with a new trailer, PlayStation owners get beta before anyone else

MGSV Ground Zeroes shown with a exclusive mission called deja vu that seems to be what they've been showing for a while, so what's the actual game is another thing. Also you can play as classic snake (looks like PS1 snake).

Some indie stuff

1st PS4 goes on sell to a bloke called joey.

Sizzle Trailer can spot The Order, FFXV, Kingdom Hearts III, Watch Dog's etc

That's it done.

I thought that was pretty cheeky of him, given how he indirectly blamed reviewers (every reviewer in reviews I read played the linear game to the end), despite Sony themselves setting up a strict environment for reviewers to test out the PS4 alongside one other factor I can't remember.

Everquest Next has been pretty much confirmed it's coming to PS4.
