The german website ps4insider.de has summarized why the british magazin Edge thinks the PS4 is the only option for next-gen gamer.
The original website is in german.
While we haven't even begun to tap into the full potential of the PS5, fans are already beginning to talk about what Sony's next console, the PlayStation 6, will look like and what features it will have.
“While we haven't even begun to tap into the full potential of the PS5“
We always here this statement yet we have plenty of games that struggle to run at solid frame rates or decent resolutions.
Diablo IV is now available to play via PlayStation Cloud Gaming! Still not available to Play on Xbox Cloud Gaming.
We ran our script again and found 15 other PS5 games (a lot of popular ones!) that got PS5 Cloud Gaming support within the last month as well.
So you have to buy the game and can only stream to the PS5 devices using PS plus premium? What is the point of that. Much more useful when you can stream to other devices.
Blizzard is shoving this game everywhere. Diablo 4 is going to take an even bigger hit soon. Path of exile 2 is coming out and it looks insane.
I completed it on gamepass. Thanks God I dint pay it full price. It plays like a lazy mobile game. I am not a pro diablo gamer (Diablo 1 was the only one I completed) but D4 has no atmosphere, no creepy feeling and soundtrack like the first one and its so easy, I managed to not buy any weapon and had 4 Million Credits on level 55. I always used the same 4 attacks from the beginning and died maybe 10-15 times. It's so easy, wtf. I remember D1 to be pretty hard.
WTF happened? Is Diablo 3 also that bad?
Considering that the PS cloud steaming is garbage compared to XCloud and is limited to certain devices this isn't something to brag about. Wake me up when Diablo is on PS plus
With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?
Unless they are trying to kill their recently created PC business, I would advise against opening a dedicated PC store. It's an extremely hard endeavor, and people, in general, are very comfortable with Steam. Even Epic, with their billions of dollars invested, is still struggling to find a foothold, and they have Fortnite.
Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming.
It's just a known fact. The PC gaming community prefer Steam and Steam alone. They don't like different launchers. I personally don't mind them. But majority just stick with steam. Hence why EA and Ubisoft went back to on releasing on steam and why Microsoft release games on steam as people hated buying from the windows store.
The only other launchers that I imagine are doing ok is GOG due to being drm free and epic games due to the free games every week. Sony shouldn't release any sort of pc launcher n
This is just another ridiculous double standard article.
It's like how Microsoft can spend 20 years of making nothing but gaas and live service style games to sell microtransactions, dlc and subscriptions and get praise for doing it, but if Sony wants to make a single game like that every website under the sun is writing articles saying how Sony is anti-consumer or whatever.
Because it's the best console for the best price. I could list the reasons, but we all already know them. The PS4 is the best console and everyone agrees. It's hurts some peoples feelings, but that doesn't stop it from being true. End of story.
It's the only option (right now) because it's the only safe bet. There's so much turmoil going on within Microsoft and within the Xbox division, not to mention the PR nightmare they're cleaning up, not to mention they're scrambling to get the Xbox One out the door and the ones who will suffer will be early adopters.
Sure, Xbox One might one day be worth the money for some people, but PS4 is the only safe, rational bet right now. Xbox One is a gamble, pure and simple.
If you like Kinect games and chatting through Kinect in a room full of kids...Xbox is the one for you.
However if you like Free to play games (blocked on XBOX) Indie games (closed publishing on XBOX) New and reinvent IPS (The Last Of Us, Beyond 2 souls, Drive club, The Order 1886, New IP from GG) And upgradeable Hard disk ( Locked to the 500 gb on XBOX and its not enough... trust me!) And the best exclusives on consles (GOW, GT, TLOU, INFAMOUS, Shadowfall, Little big planet,) plus free games every month with the potential to rival steam with Gaiki and... steam on console. With the greatest hand held console integration ever(sorry Nintendo)
Also the addition of games that allow cross platform play with the PC (WARFRAME) AND a touchpad for RPGS & Playstation Eye with a keypad coming soon... Its the next best thing to a keyboard in mouse (Although not as good) All at a lower price and loaded with extra free games? Then there is only one choice... The Playstation 4
Because of the perspective of the writer of that article.
People all have different perspectives and tastes, and that what ultimately moves you into buying your console of choice.
I can perfectly understand that people think, hey, i like the sony games, and its a 100 cheaper.
But other people like me think, i like the MS games, sure its a 100 more, but i want to play the games that interest me.
Truth be told, main reason why XboxOne isn`t a consideration for me is because my room is way too small for kinect. Why would I buy the console if I wouldn`t be able to use a critical function of it?
