SMH: It was something of a relief the other week to read that John Carmack, co-founder of Id Software and creator of the seminal Doom and Quake engines, regarded the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 as "essentially identical".
I had been thinking the same thing for months, and it was nice to hear someone else echoing my thoughts.
The two upcoming consoles from Sony and Microsoft are both powerful machines, and both look set to be excellent investments for avid gamers. The only problem is that they are so similar in so many ways that there is little to differentiate between them for those whose budget will only allow them to buy one.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The game being an accurate represantation of the original was not a slap in the face to the fans. The 3D remasters looked like ass (visually) tbh.
"Now both systems will require a paid service to play online. XB1 gets a slight advantage here, as Xbox Live Gold subscriptions will carry over to the new console, meaning gamers will keep their achievement points and friend lists."
One PS+ subscription covers PS3, 4, and Vita, so what advantage does it have again?
Oh...yeah.
From the article, "In terms of raw numbers, they are almost the same machine. Both have 8GB of memory, shared between the operating system, the graphics hardware, and general tasks. They even use the memory similarly, with the PS4 reported to be reserving 3GB for its OS, while the XB1 reserves 1GB for the OS and 2GB for the Kinect. This leaves 5GB free for other functions on both systems."
Yeah, Ok.
Flamebait on N4G.What a brand new concept
On an architectural level... very similar. On a network level... that remains to be seen. On a policy level they were world apart, but a big similar after MS reverted their policies. Oh... and they're both black :D
I getting both and will still have my pc and 3ds, vita. The more thing we have to plays games on the better I say.
