There May Not Be Enough Reasons To Get A PS4 or Xbox One Right Away

Kotaku - "Me, I write about games. That alone, arguably, is a good reason to buy a next gen console. But you, dear reader—are there enough reasons for you to buy in?'

user74029313879d ago

battlefield 4 at 60fps 64 players planetside 2 on ps4 with thousands of players and driveclub is enough for me alone to get a ps4. let alone watchdogs, assassins creed black flag, blacklight retribution, minecraft.

I'm so pumped for next gen in general. I think articles like this are moot because this has been the longest console generation I can recall and I've been gamin since it's inception. I want new hardware BAD!

I am steam rolling through all my unbeaten games I currently own, going tear through GTAV when it's released, than gear up for the next generation of awesomeness THAT STARTS ON 11/15/13.

BRING IT ON!

Same Here. Bf4 with 64 players will be awesome and I like how they reward team work this time around.

I thought about Killzone, but the KZ3 multiplayer got old after a while in comparison to KZ2. I also am not sure about the portable shields as I hated the augers in Resistance multiplayer. In KZ3 it seems like nothing but a nade and rocket fest and they nerfed snipers.
The story seems good, I just wish they introduced a 3rd side (which I have a strong feeling they will i.e. Vekta gets invaded.)

I am sorta sad no there are no rpgs launching besides DC universe.

Not one single reversal, or mention of DRM, or check-ins, forced cameras, or used game killing from Sony.

Those are enough reasons for me. Since I mainly play 1st party first and foremost - the games are simply icing on the cake.

Meh for BF4. But most of all meh for current gen games. I'm ready to get the system day 1 because this generation is long overdue. Xbox 360 has maxed out for about 4 years and PS3 has been maxed for almost two years.

Omegasyde3878d ago

I agree - its long overdue. My last ps3 purchase will be GTA5. I will probably pick up beyond two souls when the the next gen drought happens during MAY-Sept 2014.

Well, I don't think the PS4 will get a price drop anytime soon, so if you can afford it at release and want it for something down the road, then I say go nuts now. The article makes a fair point though. Launch line-ups are pretty much never all that overwhelming. DriveClub will keep me entertained though.

yellowgerbil3879d ago

better graphics
more harddrive space
driveclub and resogun free
share feature
Watchdogs at best quality
F2P games blacklight and planetside 2

those are all just day one reasons
Infamous is enough reason down the line

Sci0n3879d ago

This is the most entertaining innovated launch lineup I ever witnessed in console launch history. Not only does the PS4 launch with a few solid exclusives and some really good multiplats. Its going to launch with some really good free to play PC based games. Planetside 2, Blacklight Retro, Warframe, DCUO just to name a few. There will be so many games to play during the PS4's launch.

Maybe for them
But there is for me

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer1h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke682h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled1h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde1h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder
