When I first heard about this feature being introduced for the Xbox One controller I thought to myself “That’s a really cool feature”, provided if it works as advertised. If it does however this could indeed change the way we play games forever going forward.
Let me go into why this feature being implemented on a Sony platform — namely the PS4 is most likely inevitable.
Do not miss the Final Fantasy IX Music Special Live Stream on July 7th! Celebrate FFIX's 25th anniversary with unforgettable music.
The pre-load for Activision and Iron Galaxy's Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is now available, and the download size has been revealed.
I wish they’d do a proper switch 2 update for Tony Hawk 1+2 me and my 7 year old daughter love playing it in split screen and it plays great but it looks absolutely terrible. I would say it looks like the resolution drops down to about 540p in order to keep the framerate up.
If they don't, Pro Skater 1+2 is pretty cheap these days on PS5 and Series X if you have on of them. Switch version was only 30fps as well.
Pro Skater 3+4 will definitely be a huge upgrade from that on Switch 2.
The Ace Combat series celebrates its 30th anniversary, and Bandai Namco revealed interesting initiatives, on top of a poignant message.
That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.
what a dumb take.
Ace Combat 7 is one of the best games of the past generation. It doesn't need VR gimmicks to "redeem" it.
I have enjoyed nearly every single Ace Combat to death (except that helicopter shooting one) and have never needed VR once to enjoy it greatly
^^^ I'm guessing you've never actually tried it in VR then? VR elevates games like this way beyond just a gimmick, just ask any GT fan who owns a PSVR 2. You may not need VR to have a good time but it's an absolute game changer and something that shouldn't be dismissed as a gimmick.
@Abriael
Spoken like someone who never played it. But who are we kidding. We know why VR hate. No one is fooled here.
@PapaBop: I tried it in VR before any of you ever did, since the game wasn't even out yet. It's a gimmick, disjointed from the AC7's main gameplay and far removed from its best parts.
It's nothing more than a limiting factor, as Ace Combat's most complex missions require hardware power to be focused on other things. That's why the VR missions are very basic.
If you think Ace Combat's strengths are even close to the platform it's on, VR or non-VR, you obviously aren't an Ace Combat fan.
In any case, I suggest you folks prepare yourself for disappointment. There's a reason why the VR gimmick was never expanded, and it's that, besides a few fanatics who care for evangelizing their VR fad more than they care for the franchise, no one gave a flying F.
The developers are going to use the resources to make the whole game better for everyone instead.
Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.
I just want them to remaster AC4 and AC5, a new AC with better more realistic looking world and planes would be great too
I think it's a bit late... Remove that stupid lightbar first, Sony.
I gotta give it to MS there. As much as I dislike their anti-consumerism and the Xbox One itself, the impulse triggers are actually a brilliant idea. There are a lot of ways to use those triggers to provide feedback to the player, completely separate from normal vibration.
Could Sony add it in? Sure, in a future DS4 redesign, similar to the Sixaxis being replaced by the DS3. It would definitely get widespread use considering the feature is included on Xbox One as well.
Hope this will be great for PS4 gamers. Rumble trigger is a great invention for the evolution of rumble.
They have a light bar on the controller which serves no purpose without the camera. As for the impulse triggers, they probably will. They already copied MS triggers from this gen.
The article doesn't mention the improvements of the rumble in the PS4 controller.
I am surprised there is little talk about it.
