Cloud-gaming in the first place!
He had already spoken in the news this mattica. Now we are transmitting you some news about PlayStation World, a new service available at launch with the new Playstation 4. This is what can be seen from some rumors from New York.
The new name was chosen because it encompass all the services known to date along with other new, and will be accessible from a variety of devices in addition to the Playstation 4 and earlier PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita, including tablets, smartphones, web site via PC, Smart TV.
Junior Smart of Frost Magazine writes "One year on has the PS4 managed to live up to the hype or has it even earned the title of a ‘next generation’ console? I, along with many other gamers are not truly convinced. I am going to attempt to give a rundown of this much anticipated games machine with my overview of the past year."
Kinda nitpicks but...
PSN gives you free games? No, thats PS Plus since PSN is still kind of a free service. You just cant play AAA games online for free anymore.
Biohazard infinite ? I tried to search and google didnt even like try to correct me, it just spewed bioshock right at my face so surely this cant be some weird regional difference ?
Stupid article, it talks good about ps4 but when its down to the ugly part that's when they talk about the xbox one.............. go figure.
As Sony is only a day away from announcing the much anticipated PS4 (codenamed Orbis) at PlayStation Meeting 2013, new rumors have released talking about a premium service called PlayStation World that will replace PS+. With that the Daily Reaction crew of Seb and Dan break down what this new service could entail, as well as the PS4’s potential release date, suspected pricing, and the new controller (DualShock 4).
With more rumors about BC with Gaikai, I bet:
- PS++: all features of PS+ of now + new features + BC Gaikai unlimited
- PS+: all features of PS+ of now and new features
- No PS+: like now = online gaming free
:P
^ I hope it's still free. It's such a great advantage over XBL. What Sony lacked this generation was a polished, feature-rich service. They can have that with PS4, and in addition to free online, it can be very effective at marketing PSW as a legitimate service over XBL.
But at the same time: If Sony does charge to play online, what are we going to do about it? It's free money, and I bet at the end of the day, most of us who want a PS4 will get a PS4 and put up with it anyway. Not like we're going to turn to MS-- if Sony can match XBL this generation, then console buyers will have no choice.
I dont like it at all, but the only reason PSN was free this gen was because Sony needed that advantage over MS. There really wasn't anything that they COULD charge for at the beginning because they didn't launch a planned service like MS did. Now, that's different, and online is clearly designed with a plan for PS4.
With Sony seemingly offering an amazing suite of features, it's a fresh start for them to make good profits, and they really need those profits. I still hope and think that they will choose to keep online access free and advertise the hell out of it, but I can see the rationale behind charging.
"Not really sure what they could add to PS+ to drive the cost even further up.:
Cloud support? Running servers ain't cheap.
@electric yes it is,but I believe it'll be price $350-$400 range only because people predicted the being $700.
With all the competition that's starting to crop up the last thing you want to do is increase your prices. If Sony goes the way of Live and starts charging for MP and other basic services, I'm out. I'll stick with PC or just quit gaming altogether. It's getting too expensive at this point.
^^Calm down. Thats not happening. Sony will just build upon what they already have. Gaming online will stay free, but they WILL charge for Gaikai.
@Logic
Well at this point we don't know what Sony is planning to announce so there is a chance they'll go that route. If they do, then console gaming is pretty much done in my home. I wasn't even thinking about Gaikai but more MP and the other online services that you can currently access for free. Truthfully though, I don't think Sony would be that stupid to copy one of the worst features from their competitor's service. I think the rumor is basically BS and things will remain more or less the same but if by chance that it doesn't well then...
As long as there's still free online MP, Sony can have paid Playstation Universe for all I care. PSN plus offers a lot more saving than Live already so I think Sony is on the right track with their online strategy.
Does anybody actually know what time the Playstation Event is starting?
Tried googling it. Couldnt find anything
all games and services will be integrated into one source.
Chuck Norris approved!
