Electronic Arts Preps for PlayStation 4, Xbox One

GT: While Battlefield 4 will most likely be the best on PC in terms of visual quality, the game will be no sloth on PS4, as EA’s COO has confirmed to Fox Business News at Sony’s new PlayStation Headquarters in Silicon Valley.

Well this is quite assuring. Leaves no question how "monstrous" the 1st party games should be as well.

mewhy323878d ago

the first party games will be the best software on the market, just as it was with PS3. The power of the PS4 is simply amazing and devs around the world are praising it in comparison to the bone. Already got it preordered with killzone and extra ds4.

ZHZ903878d ago

I am happy and glad that PS4 will be great.

black0o3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

DiCE needs to release some gameplay on ps4 dev kit .. all we are seeing so far is PC version

and not to release a 2+ GB update on the launch day

AngelicIceDiamond3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

I just notice the headline didn't match the elements in the video. Peter Moore never brought up BF4.

(Allformats SMH)

Either way, I'm excited.

AlexanderNevermind3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

"Monstrous'....I like the sound of that. I hope they don't gimp down the PS4 version to appease MS.

superbhoy3878d ago

talking about bf4....all going well....whips out the tablet-facepalm

ion6663878d ago

i wonder how the ps3 and xbox360 versions looks like ,nobody dares speak of it. is thou graphics sucketh.

Syntax-Error3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

Mewhy32 - Fanboy much?

Thechosenone - They already showed BF4 on PS4 and it looks like shit. It looks like current gen on next gen consoles

Bolts3878d ago

In general if I didn't play a single exclusive from last gen I would be ok with that. First party games used to entice but now multiplats just dominate the gaming landscape.

lastdual3877d ago

Early PS3 days: Devs complained about the cell architecture, got called lazy and ignorant.

Early PS4 days: Devs praise Sony's new architecture, get called wise and honest.

...It's a little scary when corporations are able to garner the kind of zealous, single-minded devotion that is usually observed in religions.

First party Sony games will set the visual benchmarks like thy did last gen due to the ps4 being superior to xbone by a good margin, however expect most third parties to gimp multiplats due to pressure by microsoft and bcus thy will be developing towards the least common denomintor bcus its cheaper and will allow parity through consoles. It is a big worry for ys gamers but thts just how game politics go.

Hopefully dice doesnt let us down.

mkis0073877d ago

I expect as much as well, but I also expect the frame rate at the very least will be better on the ps4 versions. Visuals may be paired down, whatever, frame rate is something they really have to try to gimp, and I don't see them doing that. That really is all I care about; its the reason I bought a 360 this gen; so I could have the better versions of multiplatform games that were not on pc...(Red Dead)...oh ya also fallout3 and New Vegas because those games on pc crash like freaking crazy...but pc only gamers dare not talk about bugs and crashes.

monkeyDzoro3878d ago

What is funny about it is : MS has a huge partneship right now with EA but still, DICE devs are praising PS4 like holy Jesus instead of tha bone. LooL.
You know, when you do things right (PS4) it will always play in your favor.

LaChance3878d ago

Its Peter Moore at a PlayStation event. No Dice employees here in a 2000km radius.

Next time at least click on the link.

NoLongerHereCBA3878d ago

Exactly what LaChance says. She only asked about the playstation versions of games. This whole story has nothing to do with the Xbox One thus you can't use this to say that the PS4 outclasses the Xbox One.

Atleast watch the vid, before you come with a biased view.

BattleTorn3878d ago

Only on N4G does such a incorrect comment garner more agrees than disagrees.

Did you watch the video? And know who was talking?

Syntax-Error3878d ago

Where did this clown hear this? I didnt hear anything like that. That sounds completely made up. Are you like 17 years old nad trying to make yourself look cool? Link ONE just ONE article where developers at DICE said the prefer PS4 to Xbox One

monkeyDzoro3877d ago (Edited 3877d ago )

LooL. People are getting mad here. Have you seen a gameplay footage of BF4 on X1 ? Nope. All gameplays people have seen so far were running on PCs or PS4 dev kits.
And DICE previously said that it's a pity X1 is not coming in Sweden at launch, then Swedish people will be buying PS4 instead.
Now looking at these you can clearly tell what console devs are supporting. While EA has a partnership with MS. Where the hell have you people seen in my comment I mention anything about this vid. This article was EA's BF4 made by DICE devs, and I just mention what DICE devs said before. Use your brains people, use your brains.

Just wait until E3 2014 where Sony will announce its heavy hitters and new IP's, oh boy.

Good to know.

And please, no PC vs Console talk. Everyone will enjoy the game no matter which platform they buy it on.

pyramidshead3878d ago

It's definitely been a good PS4 news day lol.

ZHZ903878d ago

@negative, how about you could get yourself a life. And enjoy your bowa of da clown on Xbone.

pyramidshead3878d ago

@negative
I don't know what's worse, your blatant insecurity regarding which system you've chosen to buy or the salt count in your post.

I think some people on here were expecting, or rather hoping, that Sony would repeat itself this console generation with another 'ps3-esc' console again and are disheartened by how much good news the PS4 has genuinely received since February.

Xsilver3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

@negative so what does that make you, lol u say all that but you still find yourself on this site smh.

titletownrelo3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

everyday is a good day for SONY and the PS4 :D

T23878d ago

@negative - wow you come here trash every sony article, trash the site, consequently move to one bubble , and yet you hang around like the unwanted red-headed stepchild... it's actually becoming sad.

I'm sorry, but what the actual fuvk is with that chicken and egg reference? It made absolutely Zero sense.

What a way to open.Stupidity right out of the gate.
Good news about BF4 tho.

MonkeyNinja3878d ago

I think he was talking about how no one wants to buy a new console until there's games, but devs don't want to make games until there's a large user-base.

I personally don't agree with him, but I think that's what he was referring to.

EXVirtual3878d ago (Edited 3878d ago )

Cool. Nice to know! At least they're putting in an effort. Can't wait to see what the PS4 will deliver in a few years.

skydragoonity3878d ago

Every multi platform next gen will be monstrous on the ps4.

Days Gone, 5 Years Later

Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?

Such a good game to me. Crazy how different peoples opinions can get.

Crows904h ago(Edited 4h ago)

For me it wasn't that surprising. There was some bad press before. There's also the matter and element of a person's disposition when trying out a certain game. Sometimes you're just not really into the type of game that you're playing so you put it down because you don't like it. Not necessarily because it's a bad game but because you're just not up for something like this. Reviewers have a tough because no matter what they feel like playing they've got to play what's releasing.

I have many times gone back to games that I put down only to thoroughly enjoy them the second time around because either there wasn't another exciting game coming out around the same time or I just had no other games to play and haven't played that type of game in a while. I'm not the type of person that can just play a souls game through all this iterations one after the other without getting burnt out on the formula.

In my opinion this game was great from the start. Some bugs here and there but nothing worse than the most AAA releases during the same time after and before. All I did was wait one week and I had a phenomenal time with the game. No other zombie survival game comes close to how I thoroughly enjoyed this one

-Foxtrot3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Yeah I thought it was pretty decent, it had its flaws but for their first big console single player open world game it's a solid 8/10.

I have never seen an AAA "zombie" game feature as many enemies as the horde sections did, you really had to think about your surroundings and plan carefully.

I feel journalists had an issue with this game from the moment it was announced, they really didn't like the Biker characters and the overall Biker gang theme. If they were anything else I feel it would have had a better chance or at least they'd overlook some of the flaws like they do for certain other open world games. They don't mind waiting weeks or months for a patch knowing its coming but a game that has it Day 1 it's suddenly a big no no? Yeah this was one of those moments that showed you how they cherry pick who to suddenly decide to go harsh on when they want to.

mkis0073h ago

Ill never forget the reviewer who tried to claim the "ride me like you ride your bike" line was anything but a joke...they (sarah and deacon) explicitly call it a joke and the reviewer still misinformed the reader about it as if it was a literal thing.

Michiel19893h ago

the score on metacritic is 71 from journos, its 9 points lower than your review so stop making stuff up. They didn't hate it from the start, they on average just liked it slightly less than you.

-Foxtrot2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

@Michiel1989

I'm not making anything up, they held a grudge against it and made stuff up themselves like mkis007 has just pointed out. That 71 on Metacritic is why it didn't get a sequel.

Anyway how can I make anything up when I didn't even mention metacritic in my original post?

Leeroyw4h ago

Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.

Inverno4h ago

Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.

phatak4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one,ghosts of tshushima about to get one but this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.

Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't.

andy853h ago

Awesome game. Just bought it for my laptop last week
