Sony is making sure that the PS4 won't be full of exotic hardware. It will be powerful but easy to develop for. While this is great on one hand, it also means talented hackers and programmers will be able to wrap their heads around it and even emulate it much faster.
"The Spain-based indie games publisher Firenut Games and Granada-based (Spain) indie games developer Trigger the Monster, today announced with great joy and thrill that their dark fantasy adventure/management game “Search of Light” (AKA SOL), is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Game Rant participates in the Megaton Musashi World Cup, checking out the game a little bit beforehand and winning the first round match.
Feral Cat Den return with Nirvana Noir, a sequel to Genesis Noir centering around two different universes, and it truly feels like a bigger bang.
There is no reason to hack or emulate. Anyone can develope for it with no restrictions to the hardware. This article is promoting hacking and pirating and provides no beneficial news gaming.
I am sure hackers don't need a reason to hack something. They pretend they are being so righteous and helpful but it is all just a bunch of excuses.Look how Sony allowed people the tools to make things legitimately on the VITA and people are still trying to hack it to make homebrew
The Xbox was also x86. Are we even close to emulating it? No, not even after 10 years. I'm sure the PS4 will be even harder to hack than the PS3.
If Sony and MS are going to sell PCs at a loss, like a typical console, then lots of people will be looking to get one to hack.
It'd just be like Sony making a Steambox.
This is exactly what I said about the PS4 going x86, I expect emulators to hit within 4 to 5 months at launch.
