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.

GalacticEmpire4069d ago (Edited 4069d ago )

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

Moonman4069d ago

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!

Enemy4069d ago

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

Diver4069d ago

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.

Dragos754069d ago

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

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

1UP = 360 fanboys ==> Confirmed

Snookies124069d ago (Edited 4069d ago )

@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.

JackBNimble4069d ago (Edited 4069d ago )

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.

SilentNegotiator4069d ago

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).

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

akaakaaka4069d ago

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_6634069d ago

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.

N311V4069d ago

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_Hghar4069d ago

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.

jerethdagryphon4069d ago

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

Jaqen_Hghar4069d ago

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).

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??

I have always been in love .

SatanSki4069d ago

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.

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

LE4069d ago

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_51504069d ago (Edited 4069d ago )

November 18th-21st to be more specific!

Jaqen_Hghar4069d ago

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.

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.

How to recruit Lam in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

Lam is among the 120 characters available for recruitment in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. While she is one of the many straightforward recruits, a known bug may prevent players from recruiting her if certain conditions are met. Despite developers’ assurances of fixing the bug, some early access players still encounter issues with recruiting Lam despite attempting the standard method.

Tomb Raider Remastered just quietly censored one in-game detail

Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered players are ticked off by the game’s most recent patch, which censors in-game pin-up posters of Lara Croft.

This is why gaming is screwed. When people change things to fit someone’s agenda, it’s a slippery slope downhill.

Christopher8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

Even if that agenda is of the developer? Way to remove developer rights.

***One player called it a “huge problem with modern games,” saying they can now be “ruined AFTER people buy them”.***

The level of drama. Yes, I recall sitting there for more hours than I did anything else in the game. These two pinups are the core of the game, after all!

coolbeans6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

rlow1's cringe catastrophizing aside, I do think developers *ought* to strive to maintain an original work to the best of their ability. The language of a "remaster" tacitly implies that - for good or ill - what's being resold is what fans remember but better.

Profchaos6h ago

Games can be ruined after purchasing them yeah we know this not from this but from GTA IV which had half it's radio content patched out due to licensing expirations and to me that was a huge deal.

This pin up poster is a bit of nonsense but the whole argument of modern games can be ruined post launch is Absol true.

DedicatedDark5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

It's not their work to censor. They are incharge of restoration & remastering the work, not overwriting it.

Barlos4h ago

It's not the agenda of the developer though, they're pandering and trying to increase their ESG score.

Way to support censorship...

victorMaje4h ago

It’s not the end of the world for sure, but I understand the hate towards this kind of change. I believe it’s also a matter of principle.

Imagine a Picasso painting being restored & the restorer deciding there aren’t enough strokes, or some lines aren’t straight enough or curved enough…not sure it would/should sit well with people.

Have all original devs signed off on this change? Even if it’s the case, are we saying older gamers are better mentally equipped to process what was there than current gamers, hence the change?

Enough time ago the case was made that games are an art form. We’re supposed to have won that case.
So which is it? Are games art or not?

Hasn't this been happened for over a decade since remasters? I can't see that it's any worse now. Maybe if Sweet Baby starts getting their hands on remasters we will definitely have a problem.

Rebel_Scum7h ago

tbh I dont see something like this as censorship. Does anyone else not find it strange for someone to stick pin ups of themsleves in a locker room?

Now of it was a pin up of some half naked firefighters it might make sense as Lara might like that, and if they removed that I would cry censorship. But removing pin ups of the main character, yeah I get it.

Barlos4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

It's a game, and they were placed there for the audience. It's not real life. If it was, she wouldn't have fought a T-Rex now would she?

Yes, it's censorship but it's a bit less in your face. If they were in the original game, then they should have been in the remasters. It's bad enough that they have that ridiculous unnecessary warning at the start, but then they start removing things post launch. I don't care how small the change, they shouldn't be doing it. It's nothing but ESG pandering but in a subtle way.

Rebel_Scum3h ago

Look bro, if you have pictures of yourself naked on a bear skin rug up in your house let me tell you, its not normal.

jambola2h ago

I wasn't aware censorship was based on what made sense to you

Rebel_Scum1h ago

Likewise, what a stupid comment.

jambola1h ago

I agree
Your comment was pretty stupid

Rebel_Scum1h ago

I never said censorship is based on what I say dumbass. Just because I dont see this as censorship doesnt mean I’m saying others cant.

How about you come at me with your opinion rather than snarky comments with no thought on the matter.

SimpleDad4h ago

By the year 2030, this remaster collection will totally be changed and censored. Probably will remove Lara as a playable character. It's ridiculous. Glad that my family didn't buy this.
I still have Tomb Raider 2 PS1 as a memory.

jambola2h ago

Those shorts are a little revealing
Should probably make them snow pants

Barlos1h ago

They'll probably make her trans

CobraKai3h ago

It’s mentioned in the article, and it’s a point i 100% agree with, it’s the fact that they can censor a game after you buy it. That’s total bullshit.

Killer2020UK3h ago

Whilst it's an overreaction to say this has "ruined" the game, it's still problematic that this has happened post launch and for many, post-purchase.

I don't want someone to change a product for the worse after I've bought it. The same goes for implementing micro transactions after reviews.

I wonder why they did this? Nobody was kicking up a fuss as far as I'm aware.

Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster Review – You Are Your Job, Apparently

Gary Green said: In a time where an enhanced, 3D remake of Final Fantasy III already exists, it’s hard to argue that Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster is the definitive version we were expecting. With Final Fantasy III already being the last in the series to be translated and make its way west, this is something of a slap in the face for the fans. Still, let’s not be disheartened. There may be many shortfalls in this edition of Final Fantasy III, however there’s no denying that this classic JRPG still holds some nostalgic value, even if it struggles to break away from its original hardware limitations.

It’s funny I’m seeing these articles about pixel remaster, and I just platinumed 1-4 within 8 days lol. I’ve been on FF5 for about a week now. Let’s just say 5 was the start of FF having content like crazy. I should have the plat within 2-3 days.
