PS4: Too Little, Too Early

Gi - What is up with Sony jumping the gun on their next-gen console? Well, it is not necessarily jumping the gun… The timing is just about right. Late 2013 is a very appropriate time for the next generation of gaming consoles to come out. But, it has been a month now since Sony announced the PS4 and gave its “details” about how it’s going to change the future of gaming, and the “details” were sparse and pretty unsatisfying.

Isn't that the point of being "early"? The "vague details" give developers enough to know what they are working with and puts pressure on the other platform holders to one up or follow suit.

SynGamer4039d ago

The "author" of the article clearly doesn't understand journalism, nor the gaming industry. The fact that he's still writing about the PS4 essentially negates any points he brings up.

If it was too early/too little, no one would be talking about it ;)

bad naruto4039d ago

it's either "Too Little Too Early" or "Too Little Too Late".

PS4 will prevail.

Britainz-Fin3st4039d ago

That would happen regardless, id imagine the devs have had their kits for some time now.

I dont think it is early either. Its been a long generation and they're second to announce the next console.

By saying ps4 announcment is early what does that say for the Wii u ?

pangitkqb4039d ago

SynGamer, you said it beautifully. Not only is this "article" silly, it's very existence is laughably ironic. Apparently the "too little" Sony has revealed was more than enough for this and COUNTLESS other articles, discussions, and coverage.

Fil1014039d ago

lol, in a nutshell... "yes". Stupid article.

Mounce4039d ago

Pretty much, it's like, oh hey....Author..

Tell that to the fucking gigantic HYPE TRAIN that's everywhere -_-

HammadTheBeast4039d ago

Wtf. This guy is just begging for hits. He twisted this phrase to make it double negative, which doesn't even make sense.

After 7 years is not too early.

Saigon4039d ago

I honestly think Sony gave enough information overall in Feb. For GDC, they gave even more information, which is plenty to suite my taste buds. If you noticed, the content given is more structural, which is very understandable. Sony seems to want people to know what the system is capable of doing. This information is more for developers and enthusiast interested in this content. If this info does not at least wet your taste buds than you only care about the gaming system; and there is nothing wrong with that.

In the article the author should have made this clear from the door. I say this because later he says, 'where is the physical system', and I stopped reading after that.

Why o why4039d ago

thank god this guy isnt a developer ..... the ones who had even earlier access. . my opinion on his is that he's a miserable guy that thinks he's entitled to more of everything. We all undoubtedly want more but this is the tech and marketing world we're in.

Godmars2904039d ago

If the system is coming out this year how is it too early?

rezzah4039d ago

The information is considered to be revealed too early because not everything was said on stage.

He expects everything to be revealed at once, like what MS is probably going to do.

Brings up BC, the actual PS4 case, and some other info not being revealed.

A really pointless opinion piece.

"Too Little, Too Early"

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer3h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke684h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins4h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled3h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Knightofelemia4h ago

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde3h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder

"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

Don't sleep on this, it's a great day

Michiel19899m ago

I personally didn't enjoy 2 as much as I did 1. Actually didn't even finish it.
I do praise that they didn't just carbon copy the 1st game and added more of everything, but I think that during the process a lot of what made Darkest Dungeon appealing to put a ton of hours in, was lost.

The new mode does look cool and I will definitely jump back into it and try it out.
