I would go full digital but i found the PS4 menu to be awful, i wish they could use that "metro" system but only with the games, and put netflix, psnow, and the other stuff on another place
its so tedious, even the WiiU has a much better system with its grids, steam being the best, obviously
not to mention i dont think paying the same for getting less content (even if its a box) goes well with me
@themcnoisy @Donald_M You guys are comparing markets across system, im saying about the digital market, i know Sony, Nintendo, Steam, etc... are all on competition with each other BUT
On the digital service, theres no competition on the Console ecosystem (ok we can count on digital codes or cards but they are pretty much a non factor), theres only one place you can buy games, on the digital side of PC gaming you have Steam, GOG, Greenmangaming, Amazon, etc... literally dozens of markets
@glassmusic Actually a lot of developers said that they made more money on Steam sales at 50% instead of the full 100% on release date (well, you could argue that the exta visibility does help, but still)
I dont get Digital games on consoles, on PC (besides being possibly the only way) games are cheaper, ACTUALLY CHEAPER, $10 less than any game, on Consoles theres no benefit from going digital, you are actually giving the company MORE money than by buying the Disc because they save on everything thats related to that.
X Company saves money from selling digital yet nothing from that its actually passed onto the consumer, you just get rekt and have to pay the same $60 dollars
@adf86 Isnt the complete oposite ? i mean, theres NO competition on PSN/XBL/eShop, its a complete monopoly where you cant do anything if sony/MS/nintendo dont allow it, theres a monopoly, so they do what they want, on PC you have a lot of retailers that can do sales and stuff meaning that theres actual competition (and in fact that adds to PC games being $10 cheaper, well that and only digital AND having more sales), in fact, there are a lot of places that only sell steam games
A lot of devs praise the more open mind of the PC scene, the whole greeenlit has been pretty terrible, but it was a nice way not to make Steam filled with cheap-terrible game
Did you guys know that the XB1 version of the game runs much much better ? where it falls to 30fps on PS4 it stays well above the 45fps on XB1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lxdwi2kgSqg)
Im kinda dissapointed, and i seriously hope Sony/Capcom dix this, as theres no reason for this to happen
"To put it simply, the PlayStation 4 version of the game runs noticeably worse than the Xbox One release"
Finished the first episode took me about 2 hours but didnt find all the tokens and stuff, it was great ! good mix of survival/horror and action, now looking forward for Raid mode
Pretty much 100% Rev1 (S rank on all missions and even finshed a knife only run), and planing to do the same with Rev2
MH4U, Diablo 3 (PS4) and some Dota 2 with friends, and maybe buy Toxikk (that FPS game that take its root back to the old school), it looks freaking amazing and ive been waiting for a UT/Quake kind of shooter for quite some time
@arnoldlayne83 It doesnt feel like it was a cheap game to be fair, but games like RE6 sold more than 5m and had a hard time at first to recover the cost
One more thing, and this is a general rant (same with Evil Within), remind me why should games have black bars in the era of widescreen TVs ? its not cinematic at all and it was done because TVs used the 4:3 format back in the day, theres not a single reason to have black bars when theres widescreen
@Dohv You know, Maybe theres another reason... maybe the exclusives havent been good at all ? besides TLoU the exclusives has been pretty dissapointing, and that one was a remaster
@AFCC Agree, and one could argue that BloodBorne might be the one, but i dont know how that game would fare outside of the most dedicated players (which will be awesome)
"Braindead artificial intelligence is the biggest problem, as most enemies simply stick to one form of cover, waiting to be picked off"
"This frustration is instead reserved for the handful of stealth sections poorly incorporated into the escapade, which see you die the second that you're spotted"
Those seems to be the the biggest offenders
Kinda dissapointing, i mean, i knew it looked bland and somewhat boring but not this :/
@Boerewors You are missing the point of what makes the 3DS a much better system overall... Games.
The WiiU is still doing bad, but its doing much better than a year ago, Why ? Games
The 3DS turned itself around, Why ? Games
And whatever the Vita is better than the 3DS, is just debatable, i cant trust my Vita to be a portable console, i just cant, its not built to be portable like the 3DS is, the clamshell desing is vastly superior to any other design when it comes to portability. I cant throw my Vita into my back pack and go to work, because the screen might scratch or something will hit one of the Analogs. Instead the 3DS you just throw it and forget about it, because the design means its safe and sound from everything, the Analogs are part of the design, im pretty sure Nintendo would have put some normal analogs if they found how to do it without sacrificing the handheld design
I dont get developers, they want us to make up our own minds (which means buy the game) but they dont give us anything to make up our minds from. So whats the point ? If they are getting my money right away, why would they care what my mind says after that?
I mean if you are this desperate, then maybe a little more work and less talk ? Ready at dawn could have release a demo because the hate train against this game its been long coming, and it wasnt only because the game was short, but because it looked so boring. The lenght of the game was the straw that broke the camel back...
Instead of this desperate attempt at defending your game, a demo would have been much been much better... Or maybe they dont feel secure about their game ?

@adf86 Steam does 20-25% disscount on almost every indie game.
And thas considering those games would be about 50% in a month or so after release, not like Consoles where it will keep its price for months
Re: Get Great Deals on 8 Weeks of Upcoming PS4 Games with the PlayStation Store's Newest Promotion
I get 2 things from this

Re: Review: Resident Evil: Revelations 2 - Episode One: Penal Colony (PlayStation 4)
@SuperSilverback Raid Mode was easily the highlight of a damn good package that was Rev1, theres so much repayability its not even funny
but to be fair, i never liked Mercenaries besides the RE3 version, i just dont like not having a goal (points for me its not a goal lol)
Re: Review: Resident Evil: Revelations 2 - Episode One: Penal Colony (PlayStation 4)
We should have AT LEAST the same performance, if not better...
Well anyway, its an amazing game with a lot to do, for $6 dollars its just a lot of bang for your buck !
not to mention it freezes after a few Raid maps

Re: First Impressions: Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
@GraveLordXD @Gamer83 Budget tittle made bythe side team that made Revelations 1, which was also another budget tittle
And its running at 1080p/60fps, theres so much you can ask from the PS4 to being with
Re: First Impressions: Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
@GraveLordXD i guess it should, so yes, about 8 hours in a normal non-100% run i think it will be
But then theres Raid Mode which ive been playing non stop
Re: First Impressions: Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
It does have some survival, on higher dificulties Claire scenarios you will run out of bullets.
Re: First Impressions: Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
@shingi_70 about 2 hours but i missed many,many things so ill say about double for completion
Re: First Impressions: Is Resident Evil: Revelations 2 Rotten or Ripe on PS4?
I liked it quite a bit, and love the improved Raid Mode,.
It runs great minus some pretty open areas, but at least Raid Mode feela super amooth and with a locked 60fps
So far so good, very good albeot short first episode, but it costs about 25 dollars and not counting raid im seeing about an 8 hour long campaing

Re: Round Up: Resident Evil: Revelations 2 PS4 Reviews Are a Sight for Sore Eyes

Loved Revelations 1 as i thought it was the best RE game since RE3, and this is just right up that alley !
Cant wait to finish the campaing to play Raid Mode !
Re: Have No Fear, Diablo III Isn't Getting Microtransactions in the West

Re: Review: The Order: 1886 (PlayStation 4)
I like my cinematic games from time to time, but more often than not, they try to be much more cinematic than games...
Half Life 1 and 2 are pretty cinematic and had touching stories without even have a single cutscene, you play the story.

Re: Here's Your First Look At Toukiden: Kiwami's Oni Slaying Action on PS4
Its coming in a really packed month if you are a multi system owner
FF-Type 0, Code name steam, BloodBorne, Xenoblade 3D (April 10), Borderlands (dont care) and Battlefield HardLine
Re: Here's Your First Look At Toukiden: Kiwami's Oni Slaying Action on PS4
@ShogunRok It is coming in the same month of BloodBorne, it will be pretty much between this or Code name Steam on the 3DS

dont have neither the time or money to buy all those 4 games on same month
