Nice? Wtf with the inside, it looks so cheap and basic. It really is a small PC with a unique case that makes it "Xbox One" you could put this stuff inside a computer case because of how basic it is.

The inside of the PS4 looks amazingly engineered and built to perfection. Xbox One is some parts I got from Newegg slabbed together. I don't understand.

I'm not saying the console is bad at all, just how the inside doesn't look like a unique device. I just like how the PS4s inside looks like something precisely crafted for the case.

An $18,000 Agilent E4407b spectrum analyser just looks like any other cheap and basic motherboard to most people.

Are you telling me that a PS4 is better engineered than that because it looks prettier?

StraightPath3807d ago

guys check out the PS4 teardown it has a very small fan inside. This must be why the console is experiencing overheating problems. Maybe not reliable in the long term.

MasterCornholio3807d ago

Nope the console isn't having any heating problems. Its just that Sony engineers are much better than Microsoft's. Wasn't there a report where they said that the Xbox One runs hotter than the PS4?

ps4 will be just fine with its small fan, hints thats what she said. the ps3 slimy gets hotter then the ps4. they dont yellow light alot. so ps4 will be fine. #4

Razuel3807d ago (Edited 3807d ago )

Question should be is how have the modifications to the APU affected how hot the chip gets? ESRam, etc.. They seem overly cautious.

strickers3807d ago

A custom designed fan for PS4 and big heat sinks. Temp lower than XB1.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos7h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto7h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger886h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
