Can PlayStation 4 Restore Our Lost Love for Sony?

1up - We still have much to learn about PS4, but at least the company's making the proper overtures.

[GalacticEmpire]

Lost love? Sony has been supplying me with quality games for more than 15 years, the love never left.

[Moonman]

This is 1up..lol. They are just feeling bad they threw a tomato at the wrong console. PS3 has topped 360 and now they are crawling back!

[Enemy]

No one will miss you when you're gone, 1UP.

[Diver]

You mean "your" lost love for Sony. Goodbye 1up don't let the door hit you on the way out you arrogant dummies . And fix me a sandwich as you go.

[Dragos75]

Topped it in what?...And vita has topped 3ds too right?...lol

[blackbeld]

"Can PlayStation 4 Restore Our Lost Love for Sony?"

1UP = 360 fanboys ==> Confirmed

[Snookies12]

@Dragos75 - Your comment sounds very "fanboy". I have both a 3DS and a Vita, and I can definitely say the Vita is better in quite a few ways. I love my 3DS, don't get me wrong. It's a fantastic handheld. However, the Vita might just be my favorite console period in terms of design and functionality.

True gamers would support both though, so your loss I suppose if you don't.

[JackBNimble]

Topped it in what?...And vita has topped 3ds too right?...lol

considering what you will beable to do with the vita when the ps4 comes out those numbers will change.
Vita will not be irrelivant (not that it is now) when ps4 comes out.

on topic: I always stuck with the ps3 through all the media/n4g bashing.

[SilentNegotiator]

Excuse me, 1up....can you make me look like a BIGGER jackass for sticking my neck out when people said bad things about you when your closing was announced?

Unless you were a massive jRPG fan or something, not much was lost going from PS2 (Sony's best of times) to PS3 (Sony's most troubled times).

[gaffyh]

"Can PlayStation 4 Restore Our Lost Love for Sony?"

They already have....they already have.

[camel_toad]

Certainly no lost love from where I'm standing. (or sitting playing games)

[akaakaaka]

in other words

inside their mind, "f#$% PS4 will dominate and if we don't gain some PS4 fan's we will be left behind since kinect2.0 fans are to casual to visit the web for video game news"
"Sorry Sony we have been bad, forgive us!"

lol losers.. no shame here.

[Blackdeath_663]

agreed. i like playing games i don't care so much what platform they are on but i only have the means to get one games console at a time as i am not made of money . the past three generation i have to say ps1,ps2 and ps3 have come out on top. i really liked my dreamcast but i didn't get much games on it and it eventually broke. can't wait to splash out on a gaming pc as soon as time allows me to do so.

[N311V]

I have to admit during the first couple of years of the PS3 I was worried that the end of my beloved console was on the horizon. It was expensive, the game library was limited and developers were complaining a fair bit about the console. They pulled through however and the last 5 years have been fantastic. I was expecting to get a PS4 even before the announcement but afterwards there was no doubt. Sony are well aware that the Playstation is first and foremost a games console and there focus is rightly us gamers. NextGen can't come soon enough for me.

[Jaqen_Hghar]

A man agrees. A man has never lacked for software support on a Sony console (most of it exclusive) and a man has been playing since PS1. A man is looking forward to Beyond, LoU, GoW, and Puppeteer as exclusives to PS3 even though it's in its final year (compare that to the other two's support for their consoles in their last year). A man also loves PS+ and the value it offers over the competition.

[Genuine-User]

This man is a gamer.

[jerethdagryphon]

not final 10 years puts it at 2015 ish so fifa 2015 will be last

[Jaqen_Hghar]

A man won't buy sports games for PS3 (or likely PS4 maybe Madden if they don't take away all the features like last time at the start of a gen) so it will likely be HIS last (unless another awesome exclusive comes but they said all their first party devs were working on PS4 games so it seems either Puppeteer or Beyond will be the last).

[just-joe]

What is a man!?
*throws glass*
A miserable pile of secrets! But enough talk, have at you!

[freezola75]

EXACTLY! @Galactic 1UP is clearly speaking for their own delusional selves...

NO HIT FOR THEE...

BTW Isn't 1UP supposed to be getting shutdown or something??

[Psn800]

I have always been in love .

[dj3boud]

- click under Read link to expand the website-rating function
- Story quality? WTF
- Like the website? No
- done

[SatanSki]

I also think Sony brought good games, especially the best exlusives but it doesnt mean i will love them. They sell me a product i pay and thats all. Its not like im anything more for them then my money. I dont give a shit about them and they dont give a shit about me. People loving corporations for whom they are just milking cattle is not even funy. Its disturbing, to say the least.

[LE]

Beyond 2 Souls Oct. 8, Assassins Creed IV Oct. 29, and GTAV pushed back to Sept. 17. PS4 release in October anybody!?

[Genuine-User]

November.

[LE]

Would be nice to get a better head start before the Christmas rush. Yeah I know it's not that much a difference, but the longer the better.

[Y_5150]

November 18th-21st to be more specific!

[bunfighterii]

November is agreed

[Jaqen_Hghar]

A man hopes for late October a company needs to clear the initial shortages in time for BF to kick in. A man would only want November to resell a second one for $1000 to a Christmas shopper.

[MasterCornholio]

Lost love?

Yeah that happened to me when Microsoft announced the abomination known as project natal. Which is why im a happy PS3 owner now i didnt own one before due to its extremely high price.

[first1NFANTRY]

that kinnect unveiling was cringe worthy.

[LastXeno]

They never gained it...

[BeAGamer]

:

[LastXeno]

Didn't click, LMAO

[TheGreenMan]

...if you never felt the Sony love, I feel sorry for you. I say this as a gamer, not as a fanboy.

[Clarence]

Another article I see. No lost love at all from my camp. Sony is always pushing the boundaries IMO.

Bull$hit article.

[Sharingan_no_Kakashi]

Love isn't lost. But I must say I'm hoping this gen can make me excited for gaming again. This gen brought some cool experiences to be sure, but it paled in comparison to the sixth generation. PS2 for life.

[jc48573]

didn't read the article, but ps2>ps3. Even the community was much better back then.

I don't care how many people disagree. PS2>PS3, oh yea.

[DigitalSmoke]

Got mad love for my PS3, i dont know what this stupid site is trying to pull, but its a nasty down dirty trick thats for sure.

[GiantFriendlyCrab]

loving a corpoation is border line retardation.

[Genuine-User]

If that "corporation" caters to your gaming requirements than I believe it deserves a bit of technical love.

[cee773]

sony is 3 for 3(looking like 4 after 2/20) in the home console business, maybe not in sells but in the games where it counts, I been with sony 3 gens they never let the gamer in me down.

Here's to gen 4.

@panbit86

I love the vita and psp as well I plan on getting A vita when ps4 arrives :)

[panbit86]

I also LOVE my psp and my Vita!

[CapsLocke]

What answer do you expect in the site full of Sony fanboys lol.

[rezzah]

Not sure, what would the answer be?

[MakiSaad2]

They have more than 4 exclusives Enough said

[TheGreenMan]

It has nothing to do with being fanboys - it has to do with being gamers. Bottom line is this - if you don't recognize the impact Sony has made on gaming and realize what they have given us, then YOU'RE just a jaded, blind fandboy...not everyone else.

[nintendoland]

why in the hell people deny the fact?

[Silly gameAr]

R.I.P. 1up.

[GreenRanger]

Nobody has earned my love because i'm incapable of loving, but Sony sure as hell have earned my money; which certain other companies didn't have to work too hard to lose.

[Inception]

No wonder that gaming sites like 1up & IGN are in the edge of closing. Just look at the quality of this article -_-

[tigertron]

Lost love? seriously?

[Bellcross]

Oh the irony, I thought the PS3 was Doom according to 1UP, now it seems the wheels have turn.

Never got all the media hate for the PS3 they seem to forget they need consoles to keep their jobs, idiots.

RIP 1UP

[Mister_G]

What lost love?

[dee-ecks]

Whadda ya mean "Lost love"???? It was never gone n00b!!

[SolidDuck]

Oh 1up don't change your tune now. Go ahead and write another article about how u guys got a boner when u turned on your 360. Ill even title it for u ( the xbox 360 and how we turn each other on ) there u go and now your job is done for the day, while u still have one.

[josephayal]

Restore what? I could list 15 dozen great games

[MultiConsoleGamer]

I never "lost my love" for anyone.

What a ridiculous statement.

[telekineticmantis]

They have a bias for Microsoft, what happened to unbiased journalism?

[Gamer-40]

30 years hobby for me video games. -Atari 2600 jr my first console-
Best video game period for me the ps1-ps2, awesome exklusive game lineup, i like Sony.
Ps3 is a good console, but not the best for Sony. I really hope, Ps4 not Ps3 history.

I want ps1-ps2 AAA game lineup.

[Imalwaysright]

Agreed. PS3 was Sony's worst console.

[SDF Repellent]

Can we are get along in the gaming community?

I want to see a headline like that on N4G.

[MakiSaad2]

I can assure you, That you are the one who's lost 1UP

[ozzywazzy]

1UP the little gaming journalism company that nobody missed.

[TheOneEyedHound]

Sony is my only love, when it comes to consoles.

[meday354]

Sony 1 word.

[urwifeminder]

No nothing they can do never had the love to begin with.

[CoryHG]

LAWL. APPROVED WHY?

[profgerbik]

My love was never lost.

[SSJBen]

Uh... lost love? Huh?
Unless Sony has became SEGA, then I don't see what love is lost..?

[MRMagoo123]

If you dont like sony and what they have done for the gaming industry you are just a blind fanboy imo. I never lost the love i have for the playstation ever since i got my first playstation which i saved my arse off for.

[CEOSteveBallmer]

Lost LOve my Ass 1up!. What a pathetic gaming site. you can see alot of commenters here disagrees with you with a minority of 360 fanboys.

[dee-ecks]

For real man, I miss the old days when they were EGM.

[Welcome2Die]

I never lost any love for Sony, even in 2006-2007 when the PS3 was not doing so great, I had my PS2 to keep me busy because Sony still had games going for it and I was playing the leftover games. Sony has nothing to prove all they need to do is keep doing what they are doing.

[unicron7]

Never had any lost love for them. The games and hardware have been solid since 2006. People decided they would bitch at price point and follow bullshit propaganda. The software spoke for itself. The PS3 has offered great content, and I know the PS4 will as well. The great thing i love about Sony: they didn't throw us hardcore gamers under the bus in order to push a useless hardware add on to people.

[SonyAddict]

What lost love is that and good riddance 1up..so 2s up to you.

[CalibriSerif]

nice to know these people are out of job in the gaming industry. these people just love to destroy this beloved industry just for hits. so fvck off and don't ever come back.

[Braid]

Restore yours. My love for Sony was never lost, that'll not happen unless they stop releasing games like God of War Ascension, Beyond and The Last of Us.

What do the other two do?

Nintendo, abandoned Wii completely right after releasing Wii U. Microsoft, abandoned hardcore gamers long ago, focusing on kinect and turning the system into an entertainment hub rather than a gaming console.

So yeah, love whatever you want but don't expect true gamers to lose their interest in the ONLY company that actually CARE about hardcore gamers.

[KillrateOmega]

I think you mean:

"Can PlayStation 4 Restore 'My' Lost Love for Sony?"

[Denethor_II]

"I was already seeing someone else: Microsoft, who had begun making all the effort Sony no longer found necessary"

That was literately the only reason the "writer" gave for not liking PlayStation . A lot has changed, a lot. For example what state we're in now. Microsoft went for the casual market while Sony kept true to actual gamers.

[rammstein91]

since 1994 im still in love with ps and played entire exclusives..1up is composed of ignorant xbox fan boys

[mrmancs]

what retard wrote this? Lost love? Speak for yourself dick head . I love sony and the only thing that would make me stop using my ps3 is a ps4.
