@Arugula You don't think that argument is a bit tiring? If that was to take into consideration, the Xbox One S would have sold around 200M units because it's the cheapeat 4K Dolby Atmos Dolby Vision HDR10+ Blu-ray player in the market right now. They would use it in cinemas, educational establishments, hell even home theatres made great use of it.
@Knuckles-Fajita I gave you information based on the interview PlayStation had with Wired. I presume they didn't go into details here, because they already have with Wired.
@Knuckles-Fajita m.2 SSD. That's the component it allows to minimise load times, boot times, downloads, streaming and so on. Although CPU is what processes it, single-core speed is not as important as multiple cores running at a above average speed (Hence, AMD is better than Intel, just saying).
Usually, I look for spoilers do I know if the product is worth getting. The culture of "No Spoilers" makes it so much harder to find. I did manage to find some regarding Death Stranding and WOW! I knew Kojima was hiding a lot more under the walking and connecting mechanics, I just didn't know how much.
Safe to say, it'll be a ride of a game (no, not you Days Gone)
I actually tweeted something like that to the PlayStation Twitter account. They were marketing some random game, more than their own. So much so, that sister studios had to step in and boost market it on Twitter. PlayStation needs to give more value to its IPs, big or small.
@No_Cartridge I ask the same damn thing about BBND supporters. It seems people have this strange habit of sharing their negative criticism towards something they haven't tried.
@AlexOlney There's a different between a rumble motor and haptic feedback. One uses magnets to create different pressures through vibrations. Whereas a rumble uses an actual motor to create vibrations. Nintendo's HD Rumble uses a tiny motor with different settings to create different sensations.
They're similar, but function extremely differently. Nintendo's version is an improved version of the rumble motor, whereas haptic feedback has been around for too long.
It's not like it matters in the scheme of things. PC players will always have the advantage. Switch players will always have the most disadvantage due to lowest performance. Only PS4 and Xbox will have equal ground.
But for people who want to play together, good for you.
@AdamNovice Playful banter. Nothing wrong with that. When Chelsea lost yesterday, I was all over my friends, telling them how crap their team is. What's the difference?
@Sanquine Players can fill the rest of the empty space with constructions, structures and abandoned items such as ladders, ropes, bikes and much more that was not shown.
Emphasis on "Basic gameplay". This man showed a 50 minute long video worth of nothing but footage of the game. Everything presented was basic gameplay, imagine what lies underneath.
This is the same engine that powered Final Fantasy XV. The same engine that crashed so hard during the development of Kingdom Hearts 3 that they decided to switch to a 3rd Party Engine.
@Ralizah "Nevertheless, if you actually venture outside of your Sony bubble, you'll notice almost nobody in Nintendo fan communities is actually upset about this game. Some are even looking forward to it."
Isn't it interesting when a comment like this ages so badly?
Ni No Kuni, Granblue Fantasy, NieR Automata, Sword Art Online, Naruto Ultimate Ninja and Ninja Storm, One Piece, The Last Guardian, Gravity Rush 2, Drakengard 3 and many more, are also Breath of the Wild clones, according to you that is.
Weapons break in Days Gone; definitely BotW clone.
You can use swords in Sekiro; BotW clone 100%
FE: Three Houses has cell-shade art style: BotW clone
Red Dead 2 is open world; also a BotW clone.
If anything, it only goes to show how generic Breath of the Wild actually is.
It's just that MCU has set some serious standards and although biased, it's understandable why people were expecting them to at least look close to the Hollywood version.
Gameplay-wise it looks really solid, it reminds me of God of War a bit, so on that regard, I think it's perfect.
I can definitely see why people compare it to Breath of the Wild, but please... This one actually does it right! I saw a few dungeon gameplay, good stuff. Except for that character swap mechanic, I hope that's gone.

Re: Hideo Kojima Reckons There's a Reason Death Stranding Didn't Connect with American Critics
Is he lying though? I don't think he particularly mentioned first-person shooters, but shooters in general.

Re: Poll: Do You Still Want Ghost of Tsushima to Release on PS4?
It's already been advertised as a PS4 game. Not releasing it on the PS4 is false advertising and subject for a lawsuit.

Re: The Outer Worlds Is Purportedly Not Enhanced on PS4 Pro, Runs at 4K on Xbox One X
It wouldn't be that much of an enhancement anyway. Pushing from 30fps to 36fps, big difference.

Re: PS5 Controller Detailed, 'Looks a Lot Like the PS4's DualShock 4' with Some Exciting New Additions
Good! I like the Dualshock 4 as is. Hopefully they haven't removed the 6-axis (technically they can't)
Re: The Last of Us 2's 'Heartbeat' System Sounds Completely Nuts But Very Impressive
Doesn't Days Gone has a similar system? When you're hiding, if an enemy approaches very closely, you can hear Deacon's heartbeat.

@manu0 What are you on about? They're doing the same thing they did with PULSE ages ago. Take a look, bro.

Re: The Last of Us 2 Won't Be Playable or Shown Publicly at Madrid Games Week, Sony Confirms
I'm pretty sure this is what happened to Ghost of Tsushima at TGS.
Re: The Last of Us 2 Will Make an Appearance at Madrid Games Week 2019
Ghost of Tsushima was also confirmed for TGS, I didn't see it.
Re: PlayStation Fans Reckon a Multiplayer Beta for The Last of Us 2 Is on Its Way
I find it unlikely.
Re: Sunset Overdrive Is Owned by PlayStation, Sony Confirms
@carlos82 No. Microsoft published that one.

They already have it, it's called PS Now.

Re: Square Enix Showcases PS5's Possibilities with Tech Demo

Re: PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 2 Will Be a Capcom-Made PS5 Launch Title, Says Totally Bogus Sounding Rumour
I'd give Japan Studios another chance. Maybe they could team up with Insomniac.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Wreckfest Can't Catch Up with Astral Chain to Claim Number One
Meh. Personally not interested. I did want it at first, but it just looked like another Platinum game and I haven't even finished NieR Automata.
I got Control instead. If it helps bring Alan Wake 2, I'll support them.

Re: Sony Scoops Yet More Awards at Gamescom 2019
Sony needs to properly market Concrete Genie. It doesn't deserve to be slept on like Gravity Rush 2

Finally!! What's the point of having 3 axis gyroscope and 3 axis accelerometer if it can't be used for shooting?
Re: XIII's Cel-Shaded Visuals Still Feel Unique on PS4
A cell-shade game? Must be a Breath of the Wild clone.

Re: Sony: PlayStation Exclusives May Need to Lean into Wider Install Base
I think he meant genre, not multi-platform — that's not what multiformat means.

Re: Decay of Logos Is a Zelda-Like Experience Coming to PS4 on 27th August
Based on the gameplay I'd say it's a mixture of Dark Souls and Shadow of Colossus.
Nothing in here looks like Zelda — of course, I'm talking about Traditional Zelda. Not the generic 3rd person open world that was Breath of the Wild.
