I'm in bits here, GAF is killing it

I highly doubt Microsoft is worried. Take each E3 for example....

Sony unveils their new games and features beforehand and so everyone thinks Sony has a lot more going on than Microsoft. But Microsoft just ends up revealing everything during E3.

Now Sony is unveiling the PS4 first and people are acting like Microsoft doesn't have a console too.

I think if they did that I would definitely subscribe to the PS+ service! Right now I just don't find enough stuff to justify the subscription cost...

Really? I get a lot of games that I already have with PS+, it's niceto have them digitally. However, I get a lot that I don't have. Gravity Rush, Mortal Kombat and Wipeout 2047 (< soon) on Vita and this month I'm getting Sleeping Dogs (not even 6months old!) on PS3. In DUST 514 I just bout 2 merc packs at half price due to a PS+ exclusive discount. I have got/am getting SHITLOADS of value from PS+.

Of course, if the games on offer don't interest you, that's fair enough. PS+ is AMAZING if you are a PS3 AND Vita owner.

Yeah, as soon as I saw his face I laughed out loud here at work too...

I tried PS+ when they first released it, but haven't given it a 2nd change since then! Guess they have added a lot more than I was aware of since those days, guess I might give it a try again to see how it is now!

You been to the Xbox section lately?
Nice article there

Thats easy for you to say. You have EU PS+. He's in the US and US PS+ is crap. If the US got what EU got we would be singing its praises too.

If the 720 GPU specs reveal in the 360 section is true then MS might as well not release a new console.

It's only with PS+ that EU starts to get some love. US has always had the better shit going on.

Sorry to continue to derail the thread but how is this not worthy of being posted?

Austria?! Well then...Good Day Mate...Let's put another, shrimp on the barbie!

I will see your Dumb & Dumber Kaz and raise you this:

I understand what you are saying, but there is usually nothing polished about launch year titles. The notion that Sony is sticking to standard hardware means developers are going to deliver games a whole lot easier. Consider all the work that had been done to make engines cross-platform last gen. You know the ground-work for this happening has been a long time in the making. I'm surprised you're not onto it more, actually.

Oh I relaise all this, I just hope people aren't expecting highly polished titles.
Or put it another way, if its real time its likely it end up even better.

I have a theory and it makes a ton of sense...

PsVita is easy to develop for while the PS3 is hard to develop for. I just read this interview and it was Guerrilla Games talking about how easy it was to scale their killzone 3 engine to the PSVita. Being that the Ps4 is following the PsVita's path when it comes to ease of development, it would seem that it would be a breeze to scale the killzone 3 engine in a way to take advantage of a more powerful console. That would do just fine for a 1st wave title. Then they could crank out an engine built specifically for the Ps4.

That's why I doubt we'll see very rough 1st wave titles compared to how the ps3/360 started off.

And PS+ was all I was talking about.

[YoungMullah88]

Naughty Dog and rough does not go in the same sentence, if they decide to have a game launch with the ps4 or something scheduled within the launch window, then i believe it will be polished!

[Syphon_Filter]

Come PS4 come.

Lol. This one is awesome.

I think the launch titles this time around are going to be better than people are expecting as well, you have to remember that the Xbox360 was rushed to market and the PS3 had a bit of a learning curve compared to conventional systems. Also people need to consider that multi-core CPU's were just starting to take off at that time, so developers still needed to learn how to take advantage of them. Now, we have (rumored) systems that are going to be easier to develop for, developers with a lot more experience on multi-core systems and extremely familiar hardware...so I think we will see some impressive stuff straight out of the gate this time!

My opinion theyre not true because that same site said the ps4 will use directx11 when it has been stated that the ps4 will be using open gl4. Theyre going off the prformance of the gpu which has directx11 capabilities.

Well, to be fair, Direct X 11 could be their layman term for describing the hardware. After all, things like hardware tesselators are a part of the specification of Direct X 11. It's probably not best to be looking for details where there are none. The software library is hardly a good litmus test of debunking hardware design. Anything other than Direct X 11 GPU technology is irrelevant to the market, ya dig?

do people think our digital collections will be transferable to the new console?

I hope so, the ps+ is so theres a chance

I'm pretty sure the wording was DX11 "features" but I could be wrong.

Nintendo is doing it with the Wii U.

I think so (or rather I hope so), in fact I wish it offers even disc BC
