VG Republic Writes: One of the biggest draws to the PlayStation 3 is all of the content that is provided for a very minimal fee through PlayStation Plus. Sony was praised heavily when it came about back at E3 mid-last year and the masses flocked to claim the content offered, which seems to get better and better each passing month. Both the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Vita, which was later announced as being supported, have seen a slew of titles hit the market and the slogan of the “Instant Game Collection” is as accurate of statement that there could be. The biggest question after the announcement of the coming system, the PlayStation 4, is will there be an announcement at E3 a year later about the support of PlayStation Plus for the next iteration in the franchise’s console offering? Are we going to see the same support right off the bat for the PS4, or will it take time for Sony to back the next system with games that are designed for the PS4 with PlayStation Plus? Lets take a look at what options that Sony has and what we, as gamers, might be in-store for.
Michael Kitchin writes, "I simply cannot trust Wrath: Aeon of Ruin, at present. For as tense as combat can feel, it can't match the fear of a game seconds from breaking. At the time of writing nobody has finished this game. My save is broken to the point where there are two levels I can't even finish due to scripting errors. If you have to check it out, PC seems to be where the support and community is. Out on Playstation consoles, it's toast."
Shame, I love modern boomer shooters. I've been burned a few times by poor ports of popular pc focused games to consoles, pathologic 2 for example is unplayable on ps4, a lot of times these ports are made by third party companies and receive poor support
Charles Cecil has revealed that the the team at Revolution need a couple more months to finish work on the project.
This is Furukawa, President of Nintendo. We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015. We will be holding a Nintendo Direct this June regarding the Nintendo Switch software lineup for the latter half of 2024, but please be aware that there will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor during that presentation.
I'm excited for a switch 2 however I don't feel it will be coming this year as per the tweet in they are commuting to a reveal in this Japanese financial year in 2025.
Realistically we will get one last holiday season to focus on the switch because it would be madness for Nintendo to go into the holidays where the switch always performs well when they have announced a switch 2.
I'm thinking we see a announcement late Jan 25 personally with a release between March and June depending on when the software is ready and how strong the holday sales were if they need to boost those figures for the next earnings call or not
So it begins!
Where one contender pulls out of the game, another comes back bigger and stronger.
Nintendo Switch 2 - let the games begin.
There's a event in June for games on the switch and they said there won't be a switch 2 announcement so no way they will announce the console after june and still release it in the same year
So, I think they will shoot for another FYQ4 release (like with the first Switch) but I am confused by the headline:
'[...] Switch 2 will be officially ANNOUNCED before the end of March 2025' This implies that the Switch 2 isn't coming out till maybe holiday 2025 or maybe even 2026. I think they will be better served by NOT releasing when GTA 6 launches (unless there is some shocking reveal that it will run on Switch 2). Release early 2025.
It should be an interesting year; Sony, Nintendo, and MS all have new Hardware to show.
that is something i have to renew, i want to try out all Of the next gen projects and im sure they will have some goodies in for ps+ owners come launch.
PSN=Free, digital downloads, photo sharing, video sharing
PsPlus=50$ per year,30% off all digital downloads, Gakai, Free Psone and 2 Classics, PSrewards
How about that?
Sony could be slick and grandfather all current PS Plus subscribers, guaranteeing that they will be locked into the $50 PS Plus plan for as long as they subscribe.
For NEW PS Plus members, Sony would only offer one $99 tier that offers freebies for the PS3, Vita, AND the PS4(along with Gaikai). This would make current PS3 owners want to hold on to their PS3 instead of trading it in. In this case, to get the BEST value out of Plus, ud have to own all three consoles simultaneously.
Hopefully
A netlflix like streaming service of PSone, PS2 and PS3 titles via Gaikai.
One could dream but with my 100MB internet connection im dying for something like this to happen.
