The Pros and Cons of the PS4

Every system released is never perfect not even PC is perfect. PS4 is awesome and there's no doubt about it but there's some flaws that come with it and here they are!

Really those are the cons dosent really look like cons to me. At least not to most people. Kinda looks like a nitpick.

JimmyDM903799d ago

Yeah most of the cons came off as whiney and the worst of them just came off as sort of ignorant to the way the game industry works.

"Not even the PC is perfect"! Lol lost me there.

Persistantthug3799d ago

PC is obviously not perfect..... It has its own downsides too.

Everything does.

Picnic3799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

Agreed. To them, they obviously think that it's the equivalent of saying 'Not even a McClaren sportscar is perfect'. But a PC is only impressive from a point of view of its technical refinement. In games library it does have some that the consoles don't get but the consoles have some hugely high profile, respected, games that never appear on PC like those by Naughty Dog. Consoles have a character, a brand, differences in controller, motion control. If people don't appreciate why others might prefer consoles, I don't think that it's gaming that they're necessarily in to. It's domination- and relatively characterless domination at that.

Biggest con is no killer exclusives. Sony seems to be able to sell ice to eskimos though.

staticdash223799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

Ryse having a 60 metacritic is a killer app? lol

How about dead rising 3's mediocre 78? Or what about forza's 82? None of the game are over an 85 meta, they're average. So is the ps4's games. Oh yea, I forgot about killer instinct's 74 metacritic lmao

edit: Wait, there's crimson dragon's 55 metacritic, and then locoycle's 48 meta

come_bom3799d ago

Both console have crappie exclusive launch lineup.

Conzul3799d ago

The Bone's is crappy. PS4's was fair to good.

Conzul3799d ago

Second Son will be huge, as will Uncharted once it arrives.

NeoTribe3798d ago

Look to the past for anwsers to the future. Ps3 destroyed xbox in the games department. This gen will be no different. Mark my words, last of us will win this years vga and uncharted 4 is prolly gonna win the next one. Deal with it.

"for all intents and purposes resign yourself to paying $4 to $10 a month to join Playstation Plus"

$50/year does not equal your calculation. Besides, if you think of it as if you were going to buy such and such game anyway, then put that money in PS Plus and psychologically you will know that you paid for your digital game already but get to maintain all the benefits of Plus. This is why Plus is better than xbox by far. And c'mon, 4 free games a month.

Section83799d ago

This is probably not a problem for any significant number of people, but could we please get an all-region Blu-ray in the systems at this point?

Yes. They need this.

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

TiredGamer2h 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).

Zeke684h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins4h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled3h 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

TiredGamer2h ago(Edited 2h 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!

Knightofelemia4h ago

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.

Omegasyde2h 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
