‘Remote Play’ lets the Vita display the PS4 game you were playing by streaming over wifi and means you don’t have to stop during toilet breaks. Sony’s attempt to use another console to boost the weak Vita sounds familiar. It already has a cross-play feature with some PS3 games, such as Playstation All-Stars, which comes with a free Vita version. Both devices can then connect with each other for online play.
Will the Vita’s ability to stream PS4 games really save it or just push you to buy Sony’s latest console?
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
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.
Money is one thing security is another but again millions have 0 knowledge past 2020.
Epic store for years struggled with a shopping cart/account theft/credit card theft
Rockstar launcher/store to this day over 5 years later still has horrific user interface security flaws lost account's and stolen CC
Then you got that activision need phone number oh we lost it launcher
The crown jewel is the ea launcher/store ea app 3 yrs old still has hundreds of threads were people lost games/accounts/game access or just straight up crashes.
Edit" Oh ubi launcher were you buy a game that may or may not be there again or work and the launcher 5yrs old still has no 4K support if you launch it on a 4k screen there is a high chance it will just crash.
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
It literally says in the OP that PC gamers don't like multiple launchers lol. It even mentions Steam being the go to for gamers
Title: "PlayStation Doesn't Need a Dedicated PC Store Launcher"
N4G: "Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming"
When you don't even read the headline...
I read it and had a brain fart. As read the title then this "With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?"
So I hold my hands up on that mistake. Rest of my comment still stands.
Steam and GOG are highly preferred because of the rich feature set. Ubisoft, Rockstar, EA, Epic etc have all set a precedent over the years for customers to instinctively expect individual publisher launchers to be so extremely half-assed that the majority simply don't want to bother dealing with what is almost an inevitable disappointment by comparison to Steam or GOG. Those publishers and their inaction or general disinterest to improve have effectively ruined any future adoption to be taken seriously.
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.
Yep, huge double standard look at the tortured reaction to the ps5pro, websites hyperventilating like Sony is forcing people to buy it.
Wait my xbox from 2004 has avengers gaas on it? wow your so smart
m$ Gaas started with the other companies like sony
Gamepass yes they are deep into that but its still a huge money saver sense you do not own your games then get a service like that.
Now there pc xbox launcher that is trash for years now
"Driver was a technical achievement for PS1, a pioneer in cinematic gaming, and an often brutal challenge - TechStomper asks if its brand of 70s car chase antics still holds up."
@Shane Kim
Well, I mean the driving physics hold up. The draw distance, police AI, visuals in general etc do not
One of my all time favorites on PS1. I spent a summer vacation playing this was so good
Sadly youd be hard pressed to find any driving game with better physics these days. But the draw distance really kills it for me
The physics hold up ridiculously well. And the draw distance is a real hurdle at first.
Nonsense. The physics in any modern game or any 360 game is light years beyond Driver.
My thoughts exactly. I bought it at release for full price and got frustrated and bored with it very quickly.
What utter crap, PS4/PSvita will go hand in hand. PSvita will have a new least of life.
I dont think it will kill it but Vita sales wont suddenly sky rocket cause u can play PS4 games on it. Buying a Vita to play PS4 games is a very poor reason to purchase one.
total nonsence, i said this many times and its why i bought 4 vitas, some for friends as i knew what was up, the vits was designed for the ps4, it will also be cheaper byt the time the ps4 takes off, remote play isa hey feature of the wiiu and the ps4 and vita will trumpt that in every regard, other then the lack of games which while will obviously change as the new cycle begins. Even if it slacks in vita games it will still survive soley based on its ability to interact with the ps4 in a meaningful way and most likely at a price point that will make it a affordable second controller for you ps4 that also does so much more and has its own games. THAT will save the vita
Lmao! So adding a new optional feature to a system will kill it?
Once people realize how awesome it is to be able to play battlefield 4 or any other ps4 game on a vita, some minds will change. I already own one just so I have all my favorite classic RPGs on one device whenever and wherever I feel like playing them. Streaming ps4 games is definitely a plus.
