Skyrim on PS3 was one of the worst performing games I have ever experienced in all my years of gaming. I was absolutely flabbergasted that a game that came out in 2011 could run like total crap. That being said, I still put many a hundred hours into it and with later patches it ran somewhat better. Haven't had any interest in anything Bethesda since. Definitely wouldn't recommend any day one adopters on Bethesda content.
Since they are using the actor's likenesses for this I hope that means they are voicing the characters too. Would seem weird if they weren't. Don't want to get my hopes up though.
@get2sammyb I could definitely see this as a standalone but unlike the walking dead, there is less room for something different in this world. Too many huge events that affect the entire land. But yea I would like it stand alone just so there's no future book spoilers as I'm not caught up yet. I trust telltale to do a good job with it.
Wonder if it will stay close to the book/show material or go its own way. 5 characters from the same family would make me think "Stark" but it could really be anyone
Yay. Looking forward to this. I believe it will still be "cross-save" with ps3. In the ps3 version you upload your character and world to "The cloud" which I think is how you can transfer them to vita version.
While Cole is very powerful, I would have to go with Delsin solely based on the fact that he would have multiple sources for his powers available to absorb. If there happened to be no electricity around, Cole would not do as well, while Delsin has plenty of opportunities with smoke, neon, and other sources to absorb.
I think the modern day parts were set up very well in the first 2 games and just went completely downhill from there. I was always hoping that it would lead up to a full fledged modern day game with Desmond as the lead. With the ending of the third game I knew that the modern day parts would go even further down.
@irken004 I am guessing that the main difference will be that the PS4 version has bigger or even endless worlds like its PC counterpart.
Also, great review Robert. There will be numerous patches adding more and more content as time goes on and I am looking forward to the future of minecraft on playstation devices.
Finally. Been waiting for this for awhile and thought all hope was lost when the Xbox One version was announced. Hopefully it is equal to the PC version in terms of content.
Rockstar always seems to do this with new IPs. The Red Dead Redemption concept was first shown at E3 in 2005 and didn't release until 5 years later. With that game turning out to be great, I expect Agent to make an appearance soon and end up being well worth the wait.
I feel like inFAMOUS has been a very underrated series thus far, even though it has been one of my favorites of this generation. Hopefully this game will indeed put it on the map like Sammy has said.
This looks fantastic. Absolutely cannot wait to play this in a few months. It has a huge potential to top San Andreas as my favorite GTA game of all time.
Well written article. Being a huge fan of minecraft for some time now, I was a bit skeptical at how this would compare. After playing for awhile it has a completely different feel to minecraft and I have become quite obsessed over it. There is so much content packed into this game that I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves building and exploring.
@rjejr Yea if you have seen the good ending you know what I mean. Seemed impossible for another game in the series. Just curious as to how they will explain it.
I get the magazine from my Gamestop Pro membership as well.
I really wanted this to be great as these 2 characters are some of my favorites in The Walking Dead. Shame it is just a quick cash in. We all saw this coming though when there was no info until about a week before launch.
I have to agree. The past few Ratchet & Clank games have not been to my liking at all, but I absolutely loved A Crack in Time. It is definitely my favorite game in the series as well as being one of my favorites games on the PS3. Let's hope there's a grand PS4 game in the works that goes back to that style of gameplay and has less of the co-op and tower defense stuff thrown in.
Must say I'm pretty excited for this. It has great potential to actually be pretty good. I hope it really does well and Ratchet & Clank become an even bigger franchise.
Nice, a feature that should have been there since day one. Jokes aside, the folders will be a welcome addition as I love to be organized. Shame i can't download anything else on my current memory card.
Backwards compatibility would be nice but it's a feature I know that I wouldn't use. I had a launch ps3 with backwards compatibility and I probably only used it a few times to play GTA San Andreas. If I do end up wanting to play any old PS3 games, I will still have a working PS3. After playing some amazing PS4 games I can't see me wanting to go back.

Re: Desperate for a Legendary Engram in Destiny? You can Apparently Grab a Few With This Exploit
Since the loot drops are complete garbage, I wouldn't feel at all bad about exploiting this. Days and days of playing and nothing good to show for it
Re: PS4 Firmware Updates Will Add Missing Features in the Future, Stresses Sony
I really want some organization options along with all these features that have already been mentioned
Re: Grand Theft Auto V's Long-Awaited Online Bank Heists Won't Break Free Just Yet

Re: Terraria Is Building Its Way onto PS4 Later This Year
Yay. Looking forward to this. I believe it will still be "cross-save" with ps3. In the ps3 version you upload your character and world to "The cloud" which I think is how you can transfer them to vita version.
Re: Minecraft: PS4 Edition Will Let You See Much More Than PS3
They said that the size of the worlds on PS4 would be roughly 30 times the size of the worlds on PS3. So looking forward to this.

My absolute favorite moment in the game. Kind of surprised they would show it in a trailer as it is a really special moment when you finally get there
Re: The Last of Us PS4 Will Boast Enhanced Lighting and Some Gameplay Improvements

Yoshida has officially confirmed this on twitter. Looking forward to it
Re: Who Would Win April Fools' Day: Kazuo Hirai vs. Giant Enemy Crab
@ShogunRok I did LOL
Re: Who Would Win Wednesdays: Cole MacGrath vs. Delsin Rowe
While Cole is very powerful, I would have to go with Delsin solely based on the fact that he would have multiple sources for his powers available to absorb. If there happened to be no electricity around, Cole would not do as well, while Delsin has plenty of opportunities with smoke, neon, and other sources to absorb.
Re: Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition's 1.02 Patch Infects PS4
@ShogunRok Excellent. I had lost all hope.

Re: GamesCom 2013: Delsin has the Power in this New inFAMOUS: Second Son Trailer
Looks fantastic. Looks to be some sort of light power something.
Re: By the Nine! The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Voted Game of the Generation on Amazon
@acdramon Definitely got to agree here. Probably the worst game I have played on PS3 as far as glitches and crashes go.
Re: Rockstar Games' Undercover Agent Could Infiltrate PS4
Rockstar always seems to do this with new IPs. The Red Dead Redemption concept was first shown at E3 in 2005 and didn't release until 5 years later. With that game turning out to be great, I expect Agent to make an appearance soon and end up being well worth the wait.
Re: Count Up Those Gold Trophies, You're Going to Need Them
Well seeing how the first item is up for bid at 975 Gold trophies with 19 hours left...yea I'm not winning anything unfortunately.

I really really really want that delsin costume lol. Hopefully 134 golds are enough...but i doubt it.
Re: Preview: Sending Smoke Signals in inFAMOUS: Second Son, the Hottest Exclusive on PS4

This looks fantastic. Absolutely cannot wait to play this in a few months. It has a huge potential to top San Andreas as my favorite GTA game of all time.

Re: PlayStation Vita Firmware Update v2.10 Finally Adds Folders
