"So with hardware perks set aside, what do the new consoles offer me? So, my thoughts turned to games…" - Jake Woolf (Gaming Like A Sir Columnist)
Source code for CD Projekt's action role-playing games The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 have allegedly been compromised.
Well they are using unreal engine now thanks to there work culture and horrific job on making cyberpunk so for the future no impact.
But it will be interesting to see what mods will be made

Wait a min...I swear to god CP2077's source code got leaked before. CDPR needs to stop using "password123" for all their accounts 😅
Cyberpunk 2077's launch resulted in a loss of goodwill with gamers, but there is a way to earn it back with the upcoming sequel.
They will need to add everything they promised in the first one and not over promise on the second one.
As somebody who has been playing the tabletop games since the 90s and was let down on launch by my PS4 version, you can bet I'm not going the preorder any sequel.
3rd person option, and everything else that was originally promised. Next don't force agenda driven naratives. Finally, release a finished product without need for day one patches.
During CD Projekt’s Fiscal Year 2023 earnings call, CEO Michael Nowakowski said that the company is keen on licensing its IP rights to third-party developers to create mobile adaptations of its titles.
Nothing has really given me that next-gen tingle moment yet.
There were some parts of Assassin's Creed 3 that came close, but, really, the games that have really captured my interest lately haven't exactly been "next-gen..." quite the opposite, actually. Ghost Trick, Etrian Odyssey, Legend of Grimrock, Sleeping Dogs, Ys Origin, FTL Faster Than Light, Project Diva F, etc.
As someone who's been gaming since, forever, it's hard to get excited about the "next generation" when we're defining the term by hardware, not gameplay. The actual games we're playing have evolved very little. To me, the generations are better defined in terms of effect on gameplay. Like the transition from 2D to 3D. I still remember that. That revolutionized how we played games.
But now?
Games all play the same.
Hell, we've even lost variety. Just look at all the dead genres littering our past.

My GTX680 gives me next gen tingles
PS4 and Watch Dogs. Watch Dogs gives me the hope that it will actually feel like a living, breathing city. And hopefully developers (for example, Bioware's brilliant Mass Effect series) will finally be able to achieve a real sense of scale in games. I'd like to feel the power and awe when fighting a 7 foot 500 lb krogan. Instead we get a krogan who is the identical height of my commander Sheperd. Tali is the same height, as is Liara, as is everyone else in the game. This has to change next time around.
Killzone shadow fall I am extremely excited to see how the multiplayer portion of the game turns out. Will it look as good as the single player? Who knows, but what I do know is it will be the first game I buy for my ps4. I still play killzone 3 and I still enjoy the heck out of it. I've never been more excited about gaming. 2013 is going to be the best thing that happened to the gaming industry thanks the Sony and Microsoft.
The alive world in watch dogs. The beautiful scale, draw distance and scope of things in killzone sf and what capcoms deep down can be all scream next gen to me and get me excited.
