Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS4?

DragonSlayer1759

I have this on pre order for the xbone. I have both consoles for this situation. I, as others have slready said, hope this game flops terribly on the ps4 to teach all developers a lesson. I think sqeeenix thought the xbone would be the biggest seller when this agreement was originally made as it makes no sense otherwise.
cant really blame ms though as sony do the same thing. Cross platform games should be released simultaneously across those platforms.

Re: Guide: What Is The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited Exactly?

DragonSlayer1759

I love all the elder scrolls series games. I was very unsure about getting this one though as i am not into multiplayer stuff normally. Although i am still pretty early on in this game i must say my concerns were misplaced. Im enjoying every minute. As a previous poster said, you can join others in a battle without having to join any groups, clans etc. When you finished the battle you can just run off and do your own thing again (a bit like Destiny really). The artwork reminds me of Morrowind (but that may change as i move to other areas in the game later.
The battle system is good. The only only difficulty i have at the moment is to know which skills to level up as there are so many of them lol.
I glad i got it now.

Re: Fallout 4's Gameplay Reveal Goes Nuclear on PS4

Its got a lot to live up to after Witcher 3. As for the visuals, i hope they dont get downgraded from the early videos that will come out, like what happened to the console versions of the Witcher 3. Having said all that, i cant wait. Although Fallout 3 had it faults, it was one of my favourite games.

Re: PS4 Platformer Yooka-Laylee Makes Over $1 Million in Six Hours

Reminds me a bit of the original Jak and Daxter game, and to a lesser degree Ratchet and Clank. I think there is a place in the market for these 3D platformers. There doesnt seem to much for the younger players around at the moment. Knack was ok, but lacked something. It would make a change to play something that is light and airy, as apposed to the dark and gloomy games around at the moment (Bloodbourne for example).

Re: The Witcher 3's Newest Gameplay Walkthrough Is Superb

DragonSlayer1759

Looking at the button prompts, i assume this is the xbox version. This is my most awaited ps4 game since i got the console. It looks like its going to be fantastic. I played Witcher 2 on the 360 and thought it was ok, but this looks like a huge step up. I hope it lives up to the hype though and doesnt dissapoint.

Re: Talking Point: How Important Is Game Length?

DragonSlayer1759

I feel cheated if the game is less than about 20 hours. £40 and more is a lot of money to spend on a game you can whizz through in no time. I dont care if the gameplay is good but its all over to qiuck. The genre of game i prefer is fortunately where you find the longer games. I like RPG's, so games like the Elder Scrolls series, Fallout 3, Dragon age and the Assassins Creed series suit me fine. Many of which have in excess of 100hours gameplay.

Re: Yes, PS4 Was the UK's Best Selling System in 2014

Incredible figures. I wonder what the xbone figures actualy are. If it is correct that the ps4 outsold the xbone on Black Friday and Cyber Monday as well as the whole of December, what a result.
The xbone tried to nearly give theirs away. I thought Sony would be easily beaten, but shows what I know about marketing.
I was actually beginning to fear for the ps4, as the xbone seemed to be on the right track. Now I fear for the xbone what with all the big hitting exclusive ps4 game coming this year.

Play up Sony
Sony Play up

Re: Sony Investigating as Christmas Traffic Pulls PSN Offline

DragonSlayer1759

Maybe Lizard work for Nintendo lol. Seriously though, what are lizards reasons for all this. If it is get at the large companies, that's one thing but surely they can see that it affects all the people they are supposedly standing up for. Upsetting peoples Christmases can only make them more unpopular with the masses. I just cant get my head around them.

Re: PS4 Loses Black Friday Battle, Research Firm Claims

DragonSlayer1759

Unfortunately, this news doesn't surprise me. The Playstation 4 has had a couple of bad months what with Driveclub and a few other PSN disasters. I think there is more to it than just the xbone price cuts. The xbox gold live service (although not perfect) has a more reliable image than PSN and the xbone has had a couple of exclusives, while sony's exclusives are all still to come. Also, a lot of ps4 owners are now buying the xbone as a 2nd console (if I could afford one I would be doing that aswell ). in my view Sony have been sitting on their laurels for to long while Microsoft have been doing update after update.
I am a ps4 owner, but can see the xbone slowly closing the gap from now on in the usa anyway.

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your PS4 Launch Memories?

DragonSlayer1759

My memory of launch was similar to SuperCat. Constantly being on the Amazon forums seeing trying to find out what the hell was going on. Consoles were being sent and lost and not arriving. It was total chaos. I was lucky, at first mine went missing and then mysteriously arrived the following day after launch.
I got the mega bundle. Then of course there was the nerves of connecting it up and praying it would work ok, which thankfully it did.
I got FIFA 14, Black Flag, Knack and Killzone with it. I enjoyed Black Flag the most,
But to sum up, my memory can be summed up in one word, STRESS. Thanks Amazon.
