Re: EA Cuffs Battlefield Hardline and Throws Away the Key Until 2015

Demi_God

I'm starting to wonder if Andrew Wilson (EA CEO) has anything to do with hardline pushed back. The fact that BF4 launched in such a half-@## manner with awful server problems could have had him rattled a bit. He's in a very important position right now, so he does have something to prove to increase a steady fanbase for games. I think this pushback is probably the best decision that could have happened. The Battlefield series has always been cursed with horrible launches and a not so polished product.

Here's the thing, if you have a horrible leader that can't lead a company, you will have products that show that to be the case as John Riccitiello wasn't a good leader at all over at Electronic Arts. All that pecker had was money symbols in his eye's, he tried to screw over a lot of people. o.O

Re: Failing to Consider The Last of Us 2 Would Be a Disservice to Fans

Demi_God

@get2sammyb I agree. At the same time though, they still have to at least have characters that either match or surpass Ellie and Joel. I don't think it's that hard for them to do, but if they have a story that is better suited for a whole new game, The Last of Us could just be one game without anything in the future. Just one of those games that was awesome and they leave it that way. who knows though, if anyone can top TLoU characters, it would be ND of course.

Re: Feature: The PS4 Destiny Diaries - Day Two: The Exploration of Old Russia

It's just a section, a beta is the get the servers to run smoother and minor bug fixes. This game is quite polished for a beta so I'm quite sure it's just for server tweaks and stuff like that to get everything going for the big launch. Because this is a beta, these levels may look a bit different or have a lot more stuff in them when we get the final game.

Re: Sony Wants to Win Nintendo Wii Owners with the PlayStation 4

Demi_God

@sinalefa The fact that they have over 7 million already is groundbreaking no matter how you try to spin it. I am noticing a huge lack of patience from gamers at this point in time compared to before and it's getting worse. A lot of people had a PS3 that went to the PS4 and quite a few still have their PS3 systems so they are currently going back and forth.

I think for them targeting the Wii audience isn't going to go down well because the Wii audience would technically want more MOVE support. If it's for the case of casual quick pick-me-up type of games that's fine, but they need more MOVE support if they want that audience. In my opinion, they need to stop trying to think big, but understand that sometimes thinking smaller is actually thinking bigger. One step at a time. This means, if they are trying to get the Xbox 360 crowd over, that's great, but one thing at a time. Sony has a bad habbit of thinking big and then actually doing to much to the point where they can't even keep up. For example, they put bluray in their PS3 to support that of which they funded obviously, then they pushed for 1080p, but here's what happened, they pushed for 3D and that was a bit to much because people went out to buy a 1080p TV only to pretty much be told that if you have under 200mhz or whatever that you need to buy another brand new TV to support 3D... to much is just to much. Right now all Sony has to do is get some good patches for people to organize their OS and for Sony to conentrate on games, be it PS4, MOVE, VR. There is your successful point of concentration.

Re: Rumour: Homefront: The Revolution's Hopes of an Uprising Plummet

Demi_God

@get2sammyb That is where all this came from with Sony in talks of buying Crytek. It just doesn't sound like something Sony would do. Sony usually buys development companies not when they are at their peak of popularity or whatever, they buy them when they are either indie developers or just when they go mainstream.

Re: Sony: PS4 Needs More Content to Truly Take Off in Japan

Demi_God

The problem here is that Nintendo has the handheld market in a bag since they have those games that people want in a handheld. I would much rather play Mario on a handheld compared to Uncharted which I would rather have on a console. Nintendo just has that certain quality to their games that scream both handheld and potentially consoles Vs. Sony which has all those games that scream CONSOLE!

Re: Sony: PS4 Needs More Content to Truly Take Off in Japan

Demi_God

japan likes their handhelds, that's all there is to it. Even the WiiU suffered over there, but not the 3DS. Japan wants handhelds, not consoles. It was a really smart move to launch that system later in Japan, very smart move. Kind of shows the lack of console support over there right now from all sides. I don't feel bad. I mean, even their games are very abstract even for my taste. o.O

Re: Watch Sony Giants Mark Cerny and Andrew House Talk 20 Years of PlayStation

Demi_God

Actually, I think what Mark Cerny set for Knack is exactly what he wanted. I'm quite sure he knew it wouldn't be a ground breaking game and only a certain click of people would like it. That's what I like about Mark Cerny when he makes games. He makes what he wants to make and what he thinks some people may like. I could be wrong on this, but I don't think I am considering he would have made an FPS game by now. Since that isn't the case, he makes a game he wants to make.

Re: European Developers Favour PlayStation 4 Ahead of Any Other Console

Demi_God

There really isn't a need for an Xbox gaming computer. A gaming computer is just that and the last thing I need on a gaming PC is a stupid pay yearly subscription fee. For consoles it really doesn't bother me, but if MS decided to go that way on the PC, I would go 100% linux after that.

Sorry but playstation has this gen in a trick or treat basket, they made a great console, more so compared to Microsoft and the outcome is super.

Re: This PS4 Game Will Spin You Round Baby, Right Round

Demi_God

@WARDIE This isn't Sony's game so I have no idea where you are going with this. This is an indie developer I think, which means so can't tell them what to do, these are all independent developers and it's a good thing sony made it easy for these developers also. You really need to research indie games because all of your so called amazing developers that have developed AAA games were at one time indie developers. Without that branch, gaming wouldn't be close to what it is today.

Re: European Developers Favour PlayStation 4 Ahead of Any Other Console

Demi_God

If I want anything from Microsoft, I'll stick with windows. To be honest, I wish they would do away with the Xbox Division and get back to what has always made them more money than anything else, Windows. I'm not trolling here either, Microsofts baby is windows, it's always been that way and with the lack of effort for the windows system, it sure has went down hill. I like PC gaming and I like console gaming. I would much rather have MS make an awesome windows OS then what they are currently doing.

I really don't see them making another Xbox in the future unless it's again a multimedia device.

Re: Sony: PS4's Christmas Lineup Compares 'Very, Very Well' to Xbox One

Demi_God

The only game on the Xbox One I would even want to play is Sunset Overdrive. The problem I have with that game though, is the fact that Insomniac are the developers. I don't like insomniac, I didn't like the Resistance series, I don't care at all for Ratchet and Clank to be honest. I mean, so far none of their games have appealed to me and I really believe that Sunset Overdrive is going to end up disappointing a lot of people.

Re: Sony: PS4's Christmas Lineup Compares 'Very, Very Well' to Xbox One

Demi_God

So why are people picking on Sony for a lack of games when it's clear the Xbox One is also lacking in games. Even the PC at the moment is lacking in new AAA games unless you want to play ones from 10 years ago. So anyone that is arguing this factor just to make Sony look bad is being silly and nothing more than trolling to try and make Xbox One looks better. Their I said it because after all, that is the reality of it since "those" people never bring up the other platforms.

The fact here is that 10 or 20 people collected over a few forums can sound like 10,000 to 20,000 people. Even 5 people can sound like thousands. I just laugh at people trying to point the finger at Sony for the lack of games when the competition isn't even in a good position in this matter.

Re: Could PS3's Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Come to PS4? Yes, It Could

Demi_God

@NorrinRadd Even more so when figuring out it was a game rather than reality. For a video game, there really isn't a place for it, why pay another $60 when I already know the outcome. This is a bit different compared to reality when learning about different cultures and how their brains evolved throughout the years. We still have a long way to go.

Re: Could PS3's Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Come to PS4? Yes, It Could

Demi_God

@get2sammyb I'm really not excited out pre-quels at all. I'm just not interested in playing a game based on a game I played before where I know the outcome of it. It's just not interesting.

It's like the starwars movies, I hated all three be it episode 1, 2, and 3. I'm more interested in playing a game with a sequel on what is happening after the fact rather then before.

Re: Review: EA Sports UFC (PlayStation 4)

Demi_God

very shotty and it seems they could have done a better job. Even though the graphics are good, they could still be better, but hey, this is EA and there is no pushing in that company, it's just slap, bang, send it out. The fighting mechanics from what I played on the demo are pretty crappy. Also, Bruce Lee doesn't sell me on the game, complete crapshot imo. I'll wait until they bring out a proper UFC game, otherwise it's a no buy from.

Re: The PlayStation 4 Just Can't Catch A Break In Japan

Demi_God

@rastamadeus Well, they are certainly not obsessed with consoles, they are playing their handhelds at home, too. Don't believe me, look at the sales for pete sakes. The sales proved why Sony turned to the western market, they wouldn't have got much support from Japan. It doesn't matter how many generations of this or that, what matters now is right now and Japan is showing very little support for home consoles compared to the rest of the world. Point being, they are not a reliable market anymore for console gaming and quite frankly, I don't like a lot of the games over there to begin with anyway. Very abstract imo.

Re: Shuhei Yoshida Doesn't Understand People Who Don't Like Indie Games

Demi_God

Yet almost everyone in here forgets that those AAA games are from other studios, other than Sony studios. Games like Fallout, Oblivion/skyrim, GTA, etc etc etc. Sony is already creating games with some coming out this year and the beginning of next year, the rest is all on other developers. I mean, am I one of the few that see this because so far within this area I'm reading a lack of AAA when we already know when some are coming out. Or is this to rant just for the sake of ranting because some people don't like indies but would rather rehash the same game every year but then complain when EA does that? LOL

Re: Shuhei Yoshida Doesn't Understand People Who Don't Like Indie Games

Demi_God

Indies are the building blocks for developers and games you see today with all AAA games out there. All of those big developers started off small, making indie titles. People that don't like indie games really need to open their eye's. I understand if you don't like playing them, but those people should be aware of how games and developers grow.
