Angie Santiago from SpawnFirst reports: "We’re back with some more news about the inner workings of the PS4. Again, from Computer Bild comes 10 facts that you probably didn’t know about the PlayStation 4 (translated and laid out for you in an easy to read format!) They ran some tests and answered questions via their YouTube and Facebook pages. Some are already known to everyone while some are more informative."
Waiting a decade for new instalments in franchises as massive as Fallout and Elder Scrolls feels like a waste.
Microsoft have Obsidian but I feel it's Bethesda who just don't want to play ball as they've always said they want to do it themselves.
Once MS bought Zenimax in 2020 they should have put the Outer Worlds 2 on the back burner, allow Bethesda to finish off its own Space RPG with Starfield (despite totally different tone why have two in your first party portfolio with two developers who's gameplay is a tad similar) and got Obsidian for one of their projects to make a spiritual successor to New Vegas.
When the Elder Scrolls VI is finished Bethesda can then onto the main numbered Fallout 5 themselves.
The Outer Worlds 2 started development in 2019 so putting it on the back burner wouldn't have been the end of the world, they'd have always come back to it once Fallout was done and it would have been nicely spaced out from Starfields release once they had most likely stopped supporting it and all the expansions were released.
If they did this back in 2020 when they bought Zenimax and the game had a good, steady 4 - 5 years development, you might have seen it release in 2025.
We are literally going to be waiting until 2030 at the very earliest for Fallout 5 and all they seem bothered about is pushing Fallout 76.
I disagree. Part of these games is the support for the mod community. If they move to releasing a "next game" every 2 or 3 years, the modding support plummets and the franchises turn into just another run of the mill RPG.
Make the games good enough to withstand the test of time, to keep people coming back to them and expanding on them with mod support.
Athenian Rhapsody is a JRPG with a difference: alongside turn-based combat & exploration, you'll need to complete WarioWare-style microgames.
EA and Respawn Entertainment's action adventure game, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, is now available to EA Play subscribers in some regions.
"The PS4 needs 21 seconds to fully boot up. However, this was tested on a developer kit so this could change by launch."
21 seconds?!!
I hope they can shorten that boot up time.
It would be embarrassing if a console boot up time was longer than my sex life.
LOL
It says it can't play audio CDs, but can it at least burn them like the PS3 can? I mean I know it's kindof a useless feature in this age, but I still would like to have some music stored on my system so I can listen to music while I play games. Hopefully Qriocity will do that, if anything.
"The console plays movies at 4K resolution. However, games retain their resolution of either 1080p or 720p. Implementing a 4K resolution to games would essentially cost game developers far too much money."
"Implementing a 4K resolution to games would essentially cost game developers far too much money."
And yet Sony and MS both have been touting 4K as if it were something easily done.
The gaming industry never learns.
Time to rip all my Bone thugs CD'S to my PS4 and jam while playing.
