@Cron_13 This core was probably in use, albeit lightly by the UI and background processes, Sony would have tested these cores at full tilt during design and manufacturing. It's great news though, smoother framerates for games should be coming soon.
Overall its decent, but if you only take the PS4 into account its poor enough. Why don't they use episodic games correctly, an episode a month, and free to play games like Planetside2 could be sorted with a nice setup package.... Starter pack or whatever.
Just don't buy the games, wait for a sale or the GOTY editions, it won't cut out all the micro transactions but it will mean less money for the publisher. Also a petition or petitions organised by gaming sites could garner many signatures against this sort of thing.
Announced too early, it will be hard to hype it up next year without spoiling any surprises which they wish to keep....I hope its good, as the concept is a great one....
Great stuff, loving the game even though I have fatigue at the moment with it, need to do some Driveclub or PvZ for a bit before I attempt to finish it.... 1 thing they need to streamline is the inventory system....its archaic....
It's a great feature and should have been there since day 1. The PS3 had it, so why not the PS4. Sack the manager of the UI team; not one feature requested by millions of users for the UI has been implemented....
Meh, no friends notifications, no custom folders, no new background colours, no library delete functions, no search function in library or community.... WTF are the UI/system devs at?....playing dodgeball, cos its definitely not developing anything anyone actually wants.....
Have Witcher 3 fatigue at the moment...my backlog includes: Bloodborne, Batman, MGS5, Diablo 3.... I reckon FarCry 4 was the worst offender this year for sheer pointless padding. I like open world's but the sheer amount of stuff to do is overwhelming. A game with different levels of engagement would be good - say at the start one could choose: 1. Main story and a select few side quests 2. Main story and side quests 3. Main story, side quests and loot hunts 4. Every bloody thing Each path/mode would be tailored to ensure nothing major would be missed.
@Totaldude911 Enjoy it then so...money well spent...it must be of the same calibre of other games which got a 5 and its not a glitchy broken mess.....lmfao
@themcnoisy Exactly, plenty of games there that deserve a big fat zero, you would find school projects which are better. Sony needs to do some quality control and review websites need to be ruthless.

It's quite good for a beta....a single player story mode would be cool but its still a decent game...perhaps everyone has hyped it too much.
