@Squiggle55 Eh, Mario Kart isn't all that great - I plan on getting MK8, though. It really only gets recognition because the Cart racing genre is barren.
After finally getting my Vita, I don't have a choice but to feed it this game. I thought I'd have to settle for the PS3 version, but now I can play my favorite FF on the go.
I just recently bought my Vita and I'm really enjoying it. I only have Killzone: Mercenary at the moment, but I'm still having trouble showing my Raven(PS3) some love, and it's only going to get worse once my Vita library starts building up.
If Sony makes it PC compatible, then they could compete with the Rift (if priced right), while also having a monopoly on the console market - though it'd be limited to the PS4.
The biggest issue would be adoption, which creates an issue with software. Sony can't afford to let this go the same route as their 3D TV's, which had potential.
@eLarkos Most of Sony's products have been functionally competitive with what the competition is offering, and I'm sure that their VR headset will be the same.
@charlesnarles There's nothing wrong with fake accents, I've seen a few anime where American VA's pulled off English, French and Russian accents perfectly - Infinite Stratos has all 3 at once.
@JaxonH Yeah, he's Delsin. I'm surprised at how many games he's been in lately, too, but I guess that's what happens when you're extremely talented.
I'm gonna try to get back into GTA V and I'll also be serving up some Justice to needy criminals in Arkham Origins, I may play some more The Last of Us if I have time.
@Cozomel I watched the livestream and I walked away completely satisfied, the only thing I noticed were blurry textures (thanks to the video being compressed).
I like how secretive Sony and Sucker Punch have been with Second Son, it makes you feel like you're back in the world before YouTube, where the content of a game was almost a complete surprise.
@ShogunRok If Troy Baker and insiders are to be believed, then the game will blow you away.
Sony has been on a marketing roll lately and this is probably their best trailer yet, it's no wonder there's so much hype for this game. I wonder how they plan on promoting The Order: 1886 and DriveClub, I'm so hyped.
@Gamer83 I wouldn't go so far as to call Miyamoto's resume "legendary", it may have been legendary in the 90's, but not now. I like Nintendo games as much as the next guy, but some people have put them - and some employees - on a pedestal that they have no right being on.
As for Neil and Bruce, they're 2 of the nicest guys you could ever meet, I've seen a lot of their interviews and they're always super courteous. You must be confusing their confidence with something else because they're the furthest you could get from being a scumbag.
This sucks, Jack was one of my favorite Sony execs, so I wish him luck in all his future endeavors. Hopefully his replacement is as ballsy as him, Jack murdered Microsoft at E3.
Arkham City was huge, so a map that's 5x bigger is insane. I'm just glad that we won't be forced to grapple and glide our way around, speaking of which, I hope the grapple glide mechanic from Origins is in the game.
What I'm most interested in, though, is how well the Batmobile will handle. I know everything else be top notch, but (as far as I know) Rocksteady have never done anything driving based.
First The Last of Us can't stop winning awards, now the PS4 can't stop smashing records. Everyone at Sony must be very proud of themselves right now, especially Mark Cerny, who's probably still getting some well deserved rest after the buildup to the PS4's launch.
Shadow Fall is doing really well too, which doesn't really surprise me. I've heard that it's still the best selling exclusive across both consoles, so Guerrilla deserves some props as well.
@Gemuarto Things get canceled/delayed and there's nothing wrong with a few ports, especially when those ports are being released to combat a software drought.
PS4 games are coming, you just need to have some patience. You people act like there's always a mountain of games this close to a new system launch.
I've been saying for a while that there needs to be an Uncharted collection for PS4 and/or Vita. Golden Abyss looks like it plays very well, so I don't see why Sony wouldn't do it.
And am I the only one who thought that Sony should have gotten Blue Point to port The Last of Us to the Vita? I know for a fact that that would have sold a good number of units.
Leave it to Microsoft to do something good, only to follow it up with something terrible. They need to just leave Indies alone because they're terrible at working with them.

Re: Weirdness: Be Careful When Playing Dark Souls II with a DualShock 4
It doesn't sound like Sony is at fault here, but I still think they should give the guy a refund.
Re: Weirdness: What if Sony Made a PS4 Racer Like Mario Kart?
@Squiggle55 Eh, Mario Kart isn't all that great - I plan on getting MK8, though. It really only gets recognition because the Cart racing genre is barren.
Re: The Last of Us Has Infected 6 Million PS3s Since Launch
Naughty Dog should make a spin-off for the Vita, it could be about the 20 years after the death of Joel's daughter and his time as a hunter.
Re: February NPD: PS4 Claims Narrow Victory Over Xbox One
@DaftPlayStation All the signs point to it happening.
Re: February NPD: PS4 Claims Narrow Victory Over Xbox One
March will go to the PS4, Second Son will see to that.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Director Stunned by PS4's Visual Prowess
@XFsWorld Now he's back out of the book.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Director Stunned by PS4's Visual Prowess
He created Kirby, huh? This guy is now officially in my Good Guy book, right next to Eiichiro Oda the creator of One piece.
Re: Who Would Win Wednesdays: Yu Narukami vs. Squall Leonhart
Squall would only win because he's been training for years, though, I still voted for Yu.

No big loss, there are still a good number of first, second and third party games coming to PS4 this year.
Re: Soapbox: Live from PlayStation Is PS4's Secret Killer App
I like watching others stream gameplay, sometimes I do it for help and sometimes I just like to see how others tackle a problem.
Re: Sony: We're Willing to Eat Costs to Create Great Games
I don't mind Sony or its studios taking their time as long as the final product benefits.
Re: Here's How Much You May Have to Pay on PlayStation Now
All the prices look reasonable to me, and if I didn't already own it, I'd be glad to pay $6 for Uncharted 3.

I would have loved a grunge soundtrack, but if it would have been too expensive, then I guess it can't be helped.

Re: Sony: You're Going to Have to Wait Patiently for Sony Santa Monica's First PS4 Title
I was really looking forward to their sci-fi project, so hopefully they finish it once Destiny is a distant memory.

Re: Feature: Five Badass Things You'll Do in Batman: Arkham Knight on PS4
Now I don't know what I'm more hyped for, though it's probably still the Batmobile. I'm looking forward to exploring the city, too.
Re: Feature: Five Badass Things You'll Do in Batman: Arkham Knight on PS4
@charlesnarles If the VA is good enough, then it's going to be extremely difficult to find any flaws.
Re: Who Would Win Wednesdays: Morrigan vs. Bayonetta
Was expecting Morrigan from Darksiders, but oh well.
Bayonetta has this in the bag, her fighting style is insane and pretty unpredictable. Of course my opinion is biased as I've not played Dragon Age.
Re: Why Is Batman: Arkham Knight Focusing Firmly on PS4?
Arkham City was huge, so a map that's 5x bigger is insane. I'm just glad that we won't be forced to grapple and glide our way around, speaking of which, I hope the grapple glide mechanic from Origins is in the game.
What I'm most interested in, though, is how well the Batmobile will handle. I know everything else be top notch, but (as far as I know) Rocksteady have never done anything driving based.
Re: Uncharted Franchise Director Amy Hennig Leaves Naughty Dog After 10 Years
As long as Neil is at the helm, then I'm not worried. That said, it's sad to see Amy go, hopefully she'll be back someday.
Re: The Caped Crusader Sure Looks Miserable in Inaugural Batman: Arkham Knight Art
@get2sammyb Ew.
Re: The Caped Crusader Sure Looks Miserable in Inaugural Batman: Arkham Knight Art
I've wanted to drive the Batmobile for eons and now I finally can, I just wonder how Rocksteady will use the trackpad.
Re: Buckle Up with Four Minute Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer
@Gamer83 My last 2 issues and the one I was supposed to get were undeliverable, so I have to go to the post office to see what's up.
Re: Batman: Arkham Knight Races Out of the Batcave on PS4
Yet another reason to buy a PS4, my hype can't be contained!
Re: Buckle Up with Four Minute Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer
Finally my Batman itch has been scratched! I love everything about this game and we don't even know much about it yet.
Re: Buckle Up with Four Minute Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer
@Gemuarto That's not even possible.
Re: Rumour: Could PS4 Exclusive Racer DriveClub Burn Rubber Next Month?
I hope that's the actual release date, I'd go out and hunt down a PS4 in an instant.
Re: PS4 Has Now Sold 6 Million Units Worldwide, 370k in Japan Alone

Re: Pachter: Titanfall Exclusivity Due to Industry Thinking Xbox One Would Eat PS4's Lunch
@charlesnarles PS games don't need mods.
@rjejr "but if the whole Sonic Boom thing blows up in their face they'll be back to spreading the wealth as well."
At least someone is (slightly) optimistic about Sonic Boom.
Re: Your PS4 Is Probably Going to Be Playing Host to Batman Soon
If it is a new Batman game, I hope well be able to play as Batgirl and/or Nightwing in-game and not as DLC.
@RyoHazuki You need to play Asylum and City, you won't regret it.
Re: Killzone: Shadow Fall Attempts to Steal Titanfall's Thunder with Free Multiplayer Week
Second Son is more than enough to counter Titanfall, but this is a pretty smart move.
Re: Rumour: Nathan Drake to Scale PS4 in Enhanced Uncharted Collection
