does this mean i can remote play it with my VITA?
if it is... ill get this game

Alexious3789d ago

Yes, this was confirmed as well.

abzdine3789d ago

And you can trade in PS3 version for PS4 at no extra cost, which is surprising coming from SE

Snookies123789d ago

Yeah, you can remote play with Vita.

sherimae24133789d ago

thx for confirming it for me ^_^

Snookies123789d ago (Edited 3789d ago )

@sherimae2413 - You're most welcome. :]

I'll be getting my copy on PC, but the PS4 version will DEFINITELY be tempting because of this feature. Just the thought of playing on the Vita is too alluring lol.

amodestoccasion3789d ago

I will not rest until I can play every Final Fantasy game from the toilet, so this pleases me greatly.

majiebeast3789d ago

Yeah also if you buy the PS3 version you get the PS4 upgrade for free, but you lose access to the PS3 version.

At the Playstation Awards they also confirmed, Driveclub to be a launch title in Japan, so the game will launch before 22FEB in the west.

sherimae24133789d ago

ill be getting my PS4 this month as X-mas present for my VITA ^_^

i dont know there is PS awards though..

xPhearR3dx3789d ago

Does anyone know if the PS3 to PS4 upgrade will work with digital copies? I read if you transfer using the PS3 version (disk) you can no longer play on PS3, and only PS4. I'm just curious if that also applies to the digital version since it's going to be $10 for PS+ users.

I have yet to play the game, but for $10 and a free month on PS3, I would totally give it a shot if it means getting the PS4 digital version for free.

majiebeast3789d ago

Yes it works for all versions.

amodestoccasion3789d ago

What a weird, but cool marketing idea. Glad to see more publishers are offering the upgrade option like this - I'll be interested to see if people take advantage of it.

a08andan3789d ago

I might give this a chance but I will wait for the reviews. When I beta tested this the interface and its layout was horrendous and so cluttered that I stopped playing after 30 minutes. I guess I am really sensitive when it comes to interface :P

Zichu3789d ago

I was thinking of getting this for the PS3, but might wait for the PS4 release.

Shad0wRunner3789d ago

As long as people dont flip out like they did when FFXIV ARR launched on PS3 and PC, everyone will be fine. You gotta keep in mind, once this thing goes live for PS4...traffic volume will be very HIGH. Servers will be loaded and stressed. There will probably be errors and disconnects, bugs and glitches. You may not be able to get in and play, right off the bat.

Be reasonable and keep your expectations within reason. This thing isnt gonna be a flawless launch on PS4. Be patient and wait for the bugs to get worked out. Dont go all "gung ho" thinking it's gonna be a smooth ride.

Thats where most people messed up, the first time.

Alexious3789d ago

You mean with the original FFXIV release? I think there were more problems with that than just lag and glitches.

Xbox Profanity Filter Is Ruining the FFXIV Chat

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

gold_drake15d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

RedDevils14d ago

*insert gift*
"Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina."

DivineHand12515d ago

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

TheGamingHounds14d ago

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon14d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia15d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

shinoff218315d ago

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
