Electronic Arts Preps for PlayStation 4, Xbox One

GT: While Battlefield 4 will most likely be the best on PC in terms of visual quality, the game will be no sloth on PS4, as EA’s COO has confirmed to Fox Business News at Sony’s new PlayStation Headquarters in Silicon Valley.

Well this is quite assuring. Leaves no question how "monstrous" the 1st party games should be as well.

mewhy323874d ago

the first party games will be the best software on the market, just as it was with PS3. The power of the PS4 is simply amazing and devs around the world are praising it in comparison to the bone. Already got it preordered with killzone and extra ds4.

ZHZ903874d ago

I am happy and glad that PS4 will be great.

black0o3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

DiCE needs to release some gameplay on ps4 dev kit .. all we are seeing so far is PC version

and not to release a 2+ GB update on the launch day

AngelicIceDiamond3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

I just notice the headline didn't match the elements in the video. Peter Moore never brought up BF4.

(Allformats SMH)

Either way, I'm excited.

AlexanderNevermind3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

"Monstrous'....I like the sound of that. I hope they don't gimp down the PS4 version to appease MS.

superbhoy3874d ago

talking about bf4....all going well....whips out the tablet-facepalm

ion6663874d ago

i wonder how the ps3 and xbox360 versions looks like ,nobody dares speak of it. is thou graphics sucketh.

Syntax-Error3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

Mewhy32 - Fanboy much?

Thechosenone - They already showed BF4 on PS4 and it looks like shit. It looks like current gen on next gen consoles

Bolts3874d ago

In general if I didn't play a single exclusive from last gen I would be ok with that. First party games used to entice but now multiplats just dominate the gaming landscape.

lastdual3873d ago

Early PS3 days: Devs complained about the cell architecture, got called lazy and ignorant.

Early PS4 days: Devs praise Sony's new architecture, get called wise and honest.

...It's a little scary when corporations are able to garner the kind of zealous, single-minded devotion that is usually observed in religions.

First party Sony games will set the visual benchmarks like thy did last gen due to the ps4 being superior to xbone by a good margin, however expect most third parties to gimp multiplats due to pressure by microsoft and bcus thy will be developing towards the least common denomintor bcus its cheaper and will allow parity through consoles. It is a big worry for ys gamers but thts just how game politics go.

Hopefully dice doesnt let us down.

mkis0073874d ago

I expect as much as well, but I also expect the frame rate at the very least will be better on the ps4 versions. Visuals may be paired down, whatever, frame rate is something they really have to try to gimp, and I don't see them doing that. That really is all I care about; its the reason I bought a 360 this gen; so I could have the better versions of multiplatform games that were not on pc...(Red Dead)...oh ya also fallout3 and New Vegas because those games on pc crash like freaking crazy...but pc only gamers dare not talk about bugs and crashes.

monkeyDzoro3874d ago

What is funny about it is : MS has a huge partneship right now with EA but still, DICE devs are praising PS4 like holy Jesus instead of tha bone. LooL.
You know, when you do things right (PS4) it will always play in your favor.

LaChance3874d ago

Its Peter Moore at a PlayStation event. No Dice employees here in a 2000km radius.

Next time at least click on the link.

NoLongerHereCBA3874d ago

Exactly what LaChance says. She only asked about the playstation versions of games. This whole story has nothing to do with the Xbox One thus you can't use this to say that the PS4 outclasses the Xbox One.

Atleast watch the vid, before you come with a biased view.

BattleTorn3874d ago

Only on N4G does such a incorrect comment garner more agrees than disagrees.

Did you watch the video? And know who was talking?

Syntax-Error3874d ago

Where did this clown hear this? I didnt hear anything like that. That sounds completely made up. Are you like 17 years old nad trying to make yourself look cool? Link ONE just ONE article where developers at DICE said the prefer PS4 to Xbox One

monkeyDzoro3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

LooL. People are getting mad here. Have you seen a gameplay footage of BF4 on X1 ? Nope. All gameplays people have seen so far were running on PCs or PS4 dev kits.
And DICE previously said that it's a pity X1 is not coming in Sweden at launch, then Swedish people will be buying PS4 instead.
Now looking at these you can clearly tell what console devs are supporting. While EA has a partnership with MS. Where the hell have you people seen in my comment I mention anything about this vid. This article was EA's BF4 made by DICE devs, and I just mention what DICE devs said before. Use your brains people, use your brains.

Just wait until E3 2014 where Sony will announce its heavy hitters and new IP's, oh boy.

Good to know.

And please, no PC vs Console talk. Everyone will enjoy the game no matter which platform they buy it on.

It's definitely been a good PS4 news day lol.

@negative, how about you could get yourself a life. And enjoy your bowa of da clown on Xbone.

pyramidshead3874d ago

@negative
I don't know what's worse, your blatant insecurity regarding which system you've chosen to buy or the salt count in your post.

I think some people on here were expecting, or rather hoping, that Sony would repeat itself this console generation with another 'ps3-esc' console again and are disheartened by how much good news the PS4 has genuinely received since February.

Xsilver3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

@negative so what does that make you, lol u say all that but you still find yourself on this site smh.

titletownrelo3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

everyday is a good day for SONY and the PS4 :D

I'm sorry, but what the actual fuvk is with that chicken and egg reference? It made absolutely Zero sense.

What a way to open.Stupidity right out of the gate.
Good news about BF4 tho.

MonkeyNinja3874d ago

I think he was talking about how no one wants to buy a new console until there's games, but devs don't want to make games until there's a large user-base.

I personally don't agree with him, but I think that's what he was referring to.

EXVirtual3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

Cool. Nice to know! At least they're putting in an effort. Can't wait to see what the PS4 will deliver in a few years.

skydragoonity3874d ago

Every multi platform next gen will be monstrous on the ps4.

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.

rlow16h ago

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

Christopher6h ago(Edited 6h 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!

coolbeans4h ago(Edited 4h 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.

Profchaos4h 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.

DedicatedDark3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

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

Barlos2h ago

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

Way to support censorship...

victorMaje2h 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?

Eidolon2h ago

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_Scum5h 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.

Barlos2h ago(Edited 2h 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_Scum1h 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.

jambola2m ago

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

SimpleDad2h 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.

jambola1m ago

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

CobraKai1h 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.

Killer2020UK1h 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.
