I hate these supposed 'leaks'
Sometimes they let you down.. other times.. a firmware update comes and its NOTHING like what the 'leak' said it'd be lol

Sometimes I wish Sony would just deny these lame rumors.. change the release date by one day and be done with it.
Rep: new firmware update on Nov. 19?
Sony: No..
*new firmware update comes on Nov. 18*
Sony: Told you so

WhittO5279d ago

lol what the point in denying rumours when they are usually lying anyway, they even skit at themselves in the new ads lol.

Anyway, i was hoping for custom Avatars and Cross-game Chat.

I think they are hard at work for the in-game chat, not so much on Avatars since they were meant to come with last FW and its been ages so far, we have the same OOLLLDDD Avatars.

himdeel5278d ago

...is suppose to make $100 bills shoot out of the PS3 bluray drive. Let's hype that rumor and watch dreams crushed when something lesser is announced.

ProperFunked5278d ago

dude, the custom avatars are your Home avatars.....duh?

or do you mean you wanna rip off xbox avatars who ripped of wii's miis?

yeah that'd be a great addition...?

Perkel5279d ago

yeah it is annoying that i can't write polish letters like ćśźó etc. But from 2008 we have our own SCE Poland like SCEJ or SCEG

but it's still pain fro czech or hungary :/

Wreszcie kurwa jego mać :D

TheDudeAbides5279d ago

When someone post a so-called article/news here there a like 0-3 comments on the source website. There are sh!tloads of comments on this one haha.

Polluted5279d ago

Well we all have accounts here already, plus you get to know some of the other N4G regulars so you can get into conversations with them on here. It's easier to go back and check your old comments here too in case someone replied.

Then of course, there are tonnes of people who read the summary and don't even go to the source page...like I just did.

PirateThom5279d ago

Most other sites would ban people here if they started commenting like they do on N4G.

LtSkittles5279d ago (Edited 5279d ago )

Would 3.10 be one of the big updates? Like maybe a surprise? This update will tell if Reckless was right, or not. I have two theories on why he deleted his post. 1. X Game chat is coming in this update, or 2. He was wrong, but it's coming in a different update, or 3.(I know I said two, but yeah) Sony didn't anyone outside of the company to know that they were working on it.

Edit @below I see

Sangria5279d ago

According to previous rumors, 3.10 would include the famous cross-game chat and was planned for November as well.

Mc Fadge5279d ago

Until Sony announce it and it comes out. The numbers mean nothing :P

ThatArtGuy5279d ago

...or if they do a video preview the day or two before.

DigitalEnemy5278d ago

I for one hope that Reckless Abandon deleted his post because cross chat will be included in the next update but realised what mega news he just let out so deleted his post straight after. I'm confident it will be included in next update,which fingers crossed, will be next week.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

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."

CrimsonWing696h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker5h ago

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!

KyRo5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

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.

CrimsonWing695h ago(Edited 5h 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.

Profchaos2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

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.

Profchaos11h 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

Tacoboto11h 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?

banger8810h ago

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

ChasterMies45m ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
