Re: Talking Point: Is This the End for the PlayStation 3?

Alpha

@ShogunRok I'm glad you asked this! XD I actually own a ps4 and play it frequently. But I believe the console as in the PS3 still has life because of a few different reasons.
1. My backlog (personal reason)
I have around a total of 140 ps3 games (physical & digital) and only around 30 are actually finished.
2. Cross platform
By this I mean majority of the games I noticed are on both, and all ps4 adds is better graphics mostly with a higher price point (xenoverse). Indies don't need more power to run if they work perfectly on ps3 like limbo, the walking dead, life is strange, Akibas trip and murder soul suspect. Not to mention the ps4 has barley any games that are just for it and not the ps3. Granted that this issue is diminished greatly! With the likes of Final Fantasy Type 0, and dying light coming out for it among others.
3. Ps4 features
The ps4 is missing key features that the ps3 has and are supposed to come in future updates. Not going to bother with what features are needed, as those were mentioned in articles by the fine folks here at push square. Lol
4. Ps3 Classics and hidden Gems
There are so many great ps3 games that will probably never be ported due to any kinds of issues, be it publishing or licensing. So they will be ps3 only.
5. PSN
Some games need updates to work properly, or have doc to actually finish the game. Without psn on the ps3 what will happen to the dlc or updates? What if the ps3 breaks down and I can't redownload all my games again? Because PS Now wouldn't cut it.

Just because I believe the ps3 still has life in it, or at least believe that it shouldn't just die doesn't mean I hate the ps4. I love it, lol. I did just get quite a few games for mine. I have been playing dying light and xenoverse non stop and assassins creed unity is actually a really fun game in my opinion. I will be getting final fantasy type 0 and mgs v when it launches. The ps4 is doing much better than it has been. There's still a lot of indies, ports or remasters which while I welcome, I believe they shouldn't concentrate on mostly those ecpescially if the game in question has been on ps2 and up (ffX I'm looking at you). I obviously feel like some remasters are good depending on the new content.

Anyway what do you think?

Re: DriveClub: PlayStation Plus Edition Still Being Looked at for PS4

Alpha

I'm still willing to play this. I'm a somewhat decent fan if motorstorms developer, except I didn't like apacolypse or RV as much as Pacific rift. However not compared to Pacific rift, they were decent games. Apacolypse should have been named something else since it didn't feel like a motor storm game, and RV was obviously a spinoff. And drive club looks great minus the issues that hindered it at launch. So I would give it a try if it does release on PS Plus, and if I like it, I'd buy it since I consider PS Plus a rental subscription service at best. And I hope that doesn't sound like I hate PS plus, I actually think its really well done. However I'd like to actually keep the games if I lose my subscription.

All in all, I will event play this. Hopefully soon.

Re: Metal Gear Rising to Serve Up a Second Dose of Revengeance on PS4?

Alpha

@get2sammyb Read that some company (GameInformer, IGN or something) asked Konami and Hideo Kojima if that was a tease for it. For one, HIdeo does stuff and denies it, look at MGS V, and for two, MGR was made by Platinum Games. I for one, loved the first game. I hope and think this is real so ill be buying it.

Re: PSN Down for Some Another Day as High Volume Prompts Connection Problems

@get2sammyb
Is there anyway to get the word out to Sony, all of us users? with a message or something? a boycott or anything to show we don't like whats going on and that we should have reimbursement (probably wrong word) for what we paid for like subscription fees (PS Plus) Missing out on deals, maybe they will make it Free to play online at least and games them selves could do subscription based thing? Something to make up for all this because this is like what feels like the 5th time > I'm not normally one that complains about this but i feel very very ripped off, i just got PS Plus and i haven't been able to use it at all due to this, i feel i wasted my money. I know you arn't Sony or PlayStation branch of Sony but you guys would more likely know what to do in my opinion.

@Tasuki
I'm do not swear on these forums so you never have to worry, lol, i usually censor myself xD

Re: Sony Investigating as Christmas Traffic Pulls PSN Offline

Alpha

@Footypanda Thank you Its working somewhat right now, itll let me download updates for games Firmware, but wont let me sync trophies or anything else on PS4. On Vita i cant connect to the server to even sign her account to the device. So its not working there. Its Limited, Very Limited. Hope it gets fixed soon.

@get2sammyb Read my comment above so you know. I haven't turned my ps3 on at all so i wouldn't know about that. I live in Michigan, of the US. Just so people know. Trying to help keep things updated as best i can.

Re: Will PS4 Exclusive Bloodborne Feature Randomly Generated Dungeons?

Alpha

@Munkyknuts its a great series, I have the first 3 games and they are very difficult until you learn patterns and make sire you don't go in guns a blazing. Take things slow and cautious lol. I hated dark souls when I first tried it. I played it like DmC and it was bad.... I got annilated. Lol. Its a game that takes patience and above all else caution.

Re: Sony Investigating Online Issues as PSN Plunges into Darkness Again

Alpha

@WARDIE that's why I keep everything on hard drive and don't bother with online. Online in my opinion feels tacked on, and I'm sure they will fix it. They have a history of f*ckimg up and fixing it. Look at the ps3 when it first came out. They fixed the issues. Price, online, among others. It'll take some time.

Re: Killzone: Mercenary Prepares for PlayStation TV with Patch

Alpha

@XFsWorld in my opinion, yes it is since its only $2.49 and it just a license because the update added the feature. The bots act a bit different than single player campaign, they feel more as if your playing online and they even say some cool things too. Like you shoot one enemy the other enemy will say "you killed my friend, now its your turn" type of stuff. You get access to all the maps, and you can choose how many allies and enemies there are. If you want to do a 1v4 match, go ahead. You can change the difficulty as well. You want to get good? Crack the difficulty of each not to the max. You can make one bot weak while another strong. Another good point is you can unlock some trophies, not all of them however like the trophy to win a match on every game type, as botzone unfortunately does not have all 3 modes. Only free for all and team death match. Its very worth it still expescially since if you don't have a good connection or just want to train by yourself. And for $2.49 its a great deal. I hope this helps. Happy gaming!

Re: Killzone: Mercenary Prepares for PlayStation TV with Patch

You know i bought this on sale awhile back. And i havent played to much of it due to the Small Memory card i got. But i just got it back on my Vita a few months ago, and i got that Botzone DLC, I havent put it done yet. It is easily my Favorite FPS on the Vita. Plus im good at it online lol.

Glad to see they added a Checkpoint System, now ill actually finish the game.... if i can put aside botzone long enough to do that lol

@BigDaddyT0101 I miss days like that, i did the same thing a few friends 3 years back when Skyrim came out. Got some Pizza, Coke and pepsi, 4 bags of Potato chips, and played for 2 days straight. It was a lot of fun.
