Re: PlayStation Plus Will Rake in $1.2 Billion a Year, Reckons Analyst

Zikrayrus

From where I am from, I know no one that uses Playstation Plus other than myself.

I feel that it is as usual the overall low quality of PS+ in Asia compared to those in other regions. I can't remember them all but, we don't get as many discounts and that is if we do get them in the first place. And even if we do, it is always for some pretty useless DLC. The instant game collection is...pretty weak. Although it is picking up in that I finally got my first AAA title after 6 months of using it. Otherwise it is all just pretty normal PSN downloads. Of course the last reason is PSN itself. We here in Asia get content very late compared to all other regions.

Basically, PS+ value is greatly diminished in Asia regions. I'm really hoping that this new policy will allow them to give us in Asia more support!

Re: Ace Combat: Infinity Swoops onto PlayStation 3

Many people are guessing it is a crossover between AC Real World and AC Strangereal. I wouldn't know. But considering that it is not a numbered game I suppose it is highly possible.

Which means I probably shouldn't keep my hopes up to high yet. While Assault Horizon was not too bad. It pretty much just sat at the bottom of my AC Ranking list together with Joint Assault and Advance...

Okay I'll admit I actually hated it after the second or third playthrough when I realize just how railroaded and scripted Ace Combat has become. If all the future games are like this. I might start crying blood. T.T

Re: E3 2013: Final Fantasy XV Comes Out Swinging in New Gameplay Trailer

Same concept of gameplay as Kingdom Hearts. But seems to be improved to be much more cinematic...

To be honest, although I dig the gameplay. I am not sure how Final Fantasy as a series will be progressing from there. Altering gameplay from one of your other franchises doesn't really count as innovation in every iteration in my opinion.

Actually, scratch that...I'm just getting this indescribable bad feeling about FF all of a sudden...But I just can't nail it down what it is.

Re: Talking Point: PS4 Must Provide a More Palatable Shopping Experience

Well while you guys are having issues with the PSN itself. Us here in Asia suffer from a surprising lack of content that the NA, EU and JPN servers have. Its so teeth-grindingly annoying that while you people are getting Triple A games like Demon Souls and all that for PS+ while we got...what PS Home costumes? Really? REALLY?!

Seriously the difference between Asia and those places are really miles apart.

If anything I hope Sony would improve support for regions other than NA EU and JPN. Although I do believe that that is highly improbable since the Asia market seems to be comparatively small compared to those places...Or is it big and I just don't know it?

Re: Talking Point: How Does Exclusivity Affect Your Anticipation for a Game?

Zikrayrus

Exclusives are very important for me. Without exclusives, there will be no point buying one console over another wouldn't it? Which is why in my shopping list, I always make it a point to buy exclusives over the multi-platform games. Why buy something that others can have (and most of the time in PS3's case, inferior) when you can buy something that only the PS3 have. (Can I mention that I'm still crying over Ace Combat 6 exclusivity on the Xbox 360?)

And no, I will never buy a game that's also ported to the PC. No matter how badly optimized the game maybe. The PC will still have many options that can make it better than it's console counterparts.

Re: Feature: How Killzone: Shadow Fall Can Finally Fulfil the Franchise's Potential

Zikrayrus

I generally agree with the suggestions put out. Killzone has a lot of potential that isn't used yet.

Oh and about the "Gears Killer" and "Halo Killer" thing. I personally feel that Resistance is the "Halo Killer" while Killzone is the "Gears Killer".

Resistance is all about weapon a massive variety of weapon types and a large variety of enemies with a some-what super soldier feel that I find similar to Halo

While Killzone is a slow paced cover based shooter which I find similar to Gears of War. Albeit with one being first person and the other being third person.

Re: No, Your PlayStation 4 Won't Play Audio CDs

Zikrayrus

Nope, never used it. So it won't be affecting me.

Although it is an odd move though. Is it to push digital content or for price concerns? Although the earlier comments states that prices won't be reduced that much if at all...
