Re: E3 2017: July's First Free PlayStation Plus Game Announced

usb

Looks truly awful for the first time I will not even claim the free game. Also Sony stance on this new thing they are pushing. They are happy for the use of mobiles and tablets with the PS4 but unhappy if you want to play a game with your friend on xbox.

Re: Poll: Has Xbox One X Left You Feeling Green with Envy?

usb

Much more impressed with not only the specs but with how the new xbox console looks as well. The pro did nothing for me but the new console looks good and has a decent roster of games. £100 more is not really much all things considered. I think Sony are going to need to have a very good showing to out do microsoft this year.

Re: Microsoft's Mixer Could End Up Being Beamed to PlayStation

usb

Beam/Mixer is ok but you do not get the viewers when you stream there so its pointless. Beam has been around for years and if it is not getting the viewers now it never will. Until you get the big streamers like Lirik etc moving then its not going to take viewers away from Twitch.

Re: A Bunch of B-Tier PS4 Titles Go on Sale in US

usb

I find the term B tier a strange one to use for these titles. A B-movie is something that does not take its self seriously. Many 1000's of hours of blood sweat and tears have been put into these games to create something of value.

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda PS4 Patch Will Address More Problems Tomorrow

usb

Not a prefect game but never played one of those. Also never played a game that does not need patching. It does not play like a traditional mass effect but then again the 3 original games also evolved. Especially between one and two. I like that it plays more like dragon age inquisition. Also the multi-player is so much fun. Mass Effect series was never know for its good graphics or animations.

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda Throws Possibility of Season Pass Out the Airlock

usb

I have bought season passes in the past and always happy with them. Bioware/Mass effect prodce some of the best DLC I have ever player for a game. It stops a situation like with Fallout 4 where you had a massive increase in the price of the season pass when they realised content cost more to produce. This does not also limit support for the game after launch.

I think like with ME3 they will produce some bigger DLC expansions. Whatevere they make I will buy it as am happy to support this franchise which has never let me down.

Buy a season pass if you want to support a game. If you do not then do not buy it. You are always saving on the content if you buy season passes.

Re: Feature: How PS4 Can Fend Off the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Scorpio in 2017

usb

For me the Scorpio will shine because of its power a lot more tempted with that than I was for getting the PS Pro. Switch because its portable with a lot of fun games. Those are two very different systems catering for different markets. Sony will plod along still sell consoles but I am excited for the new consoles releases. The Switch should not worry sony too much but the Scorpio has the strong potential to draw gamers away from PS4.

Re: Hardware Review: Is the Razer Raiju the PS4's True Pro Controller?

usb

Spent £300 on headphones for better sound but not just for console but also music. I am not good at shooters anyway so no controller is ever going to change that. There are other devices that allow yo to map controllers which you can program yourself and they cost a lot less than this controller and you can still use your original PS4 conroller if anything I would go for one of those.

Re: Talking Point: Has Holiday 2016 Devalued New Games?

usb

I always supported games day one so they can get money back. But after last year I will no longer be supporting any day one games. I find it unacceptable that a game I paid full price for can drop to 1/2 or 1/3 off price within a couple of months. Its like a kick in the teath for those who are loyal to a franchise. This year I only plan to buy Mass Effect everything else can wait till 2018. I understand games go down in price over time but last year games reduced in price too fast. I predict 2017 will be a truly awful year for full price games because everyone knows wait a month and you will mostly likely get a 1/3 off wait 2 months 1/2 price.

Re: PS4 Physical Game Sales Increase As UK Industry Suffers Blow

usb

Sony and Microsoft have created this problem for themselves. Allowing physical games to be bought then resold many times means means the revenue ends as soon as the game is sold. PC games moved away from this model years ago. Yes you can still buy physical games but once the code is used thats it. You also have a great digital store with fast downloads. Next generation they really need to look at this issue.

Re: Game of the Year 2016: #1 - Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

usb

When I first played the game I gave it a personal 10/10 but after reflecting on it its reduced to an 8/10. Graphics were good story ok. Dissapointing multi-player. After playing through the story once did not have any desire to play the game again. For a game to be great it needs to draw me in again and again and sadly this did not do that.

Re: January's PlayStation Plus Games Have Been Revealed

usb

I do not understand why people think that we should be getting AAA ttiles with the small fee we pay each month. Along with all the other benefits we get the games are probably the smallest most meaningless part of the PS Plus package. I would prefer to see indie titles supported than any AAA offering.
