Re: Rumour: Grand Theft Auto V Caught On PS4

DVS

I'm in the same boat as some of you above. I've got far too much to catch up on before the PS4 comes out. I'd be happy to wait for a PS4 version in about a year. Ginkgo - sounds like you need PlayStation Plus.

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on the PS4's Launch Lineup?

Nothing at this time has topped the PS Vita launch line up, which was, frankly, just ridiculous. However, it is still very good. Loads of variety. A great indie selection. Loads to try and do from day one. The biggest benefit, and I think Sony may win on this, is that they've learned their lesson with the Vita and won't have such a massive gap between launch titles and the next wave of big great AAA games. inFamous: SS coming just 3 months after launch. Bring it.

@ #11
To be fair - with over a million preorders - Sony needed to flesh out their 2013 PS4 games list. Which is exactly what they did. The strategy was simple and well executed.

With respect, I'd suggest that you are in fact one of those people that Clamedeus was talking about - you call the strategy ridiculous, when clearly it isn't - and then say that you get it - when you don't.

Re: Talking Point: Do You Intend to Buy the PS4's Camera?

I'll also add that the reason I have little interest at this time is that I don't see the PS Camera as an essential purchase. Should Sony (because first party stuff is usually better) decide to do something with it then I may change my mind.

@JaredJ
I disagree, Jared. When you look at the Xbox One and the Kinect, the camera MUST be connected for the system to work. Whilst I agree that there would be more developer support if the PS Camera was packaged with the system, the last thing anyone wants is another situation where the thing is mandatory. That Sony gives us the choice with the camera, and therefore bringing down the base cost of the system, is much better for those like myself who have little interest in this optional peripheral.
