Might be a huge difference, but let's be real here. If games are going to be made with 4K support in mind, it'll be an extra add-on that isn't needed. How about having console games that can run 60 fps first? Because from what I've seen in this HD generation of consoles are unacceptable frame-rates on 720p. These tellies might be nice in the future when they are far cheaper, but I'd rather have decent graphics with decent frame-rate to be honest. #4.4.1
The new 84-inch Sony XBR-84X900 Bravia 4k television is going to cost that much and I've seen people on speculation threads claiming that both Microsoft and Sony need to have 4k support in their new consoles.
It'll only jack up the price for the new consoles and I don't think it's worth it.
Would be nice on PC I guess because that's where all the innovation is. #4.3.1
The people who claim they can tell the difference of 4K are probably blowing smoke because I can't tell the difference. Low frame-rate as well is actually pretty worrying. Check out the Battlefield demonstration and check out the weird glitch thing that happens. #4
I've always liked that about Kamiya. He never hesitates to speak his mind and speaks to his fans if they have questions.
People may also say that he should've read the article, but the thing is that English is clearly not his first language. Besides, why would he read Kotaku? Do you think that those negative Nintendo stories that they've been breaking before and since the Wii U's inception hasn't caught the eye of Platinum Games? Of course it has.
Hm. I'd like to see some worthwhile articles getting some airplay rather than the usual riff raff. I would also be most interested if there was some real intellectual discourse over a story rather than the point-scoring that is pretty prevalent over a divisive story. #14
The article's title is slightly misleading. The French Government is investing €3.5 million into the development of a new engine codenamed "Mango". Any game's overall costs will probably be a lot more than the sum that is being quoted here. #13
@Shutupandtakemymoney PC is the platform that pushes genres forward and there is a healthy collection of horror games on the PC like the ones that you've previously mentioned. Unfortunately, the PC platform is tethered to the consoles because that's were all the money is which has resulted in games that have been bastardized to work on consoles with recent examples such as Battlefield 3, Crysis 2 etc. It's probably due to there being less piracy on the consoles, even though all th... #9
There's a reason why survival horror has not been so prevalent this generation and it's because gaming has changed. Game development costs are rising, pressure to follow on the coattails of far more successful franchises to account for the expenditure, gamers' collective lack of desire for new IPs, and the fact that the survival horror genre has all but died in this current generation cycle. If you look at the figures, the survival horror market just doesn't have a wide enough... #8
Honest question guys. Does anybody want another Mass Effect game?
After the whole ME3 debacle happened and I saw the major gaming websites with their sneering condescension talking down to a loyal fanbase who were appalled at an ending that didn't make any logical sense whatsoever; I think that I'm completely done with the Mass Effect universe.
I don't honestly see how they can drag me back to buying ME4 after witnessing what they did by gouging... #5
The game had a pretty strong story and deserves GOTY. You could substitute Mass Effect or Assassin's Creed or Dishonoured in the article and it'd be the same result. Bugs, logic issues, puppets, linearity etc.
You're so right Mega. I just find it galling to say the least when people claim that gaming has grown up because there's a sex scene in a game. There have been games that were back in the 90s that were far more daring than Far Cry 3. I have no mouth and I must scream tackled real issues like genocide, rape, paranoia, insanity, selfishness etc that put it way beyond a lot of games of this current gen.
Hell, even Mass Effect tackled issues like racism, freedom of though... #27.1.1
Pfft. Point and click games in the 90s were more adult than this. Check out Phantasmagoria or I have no mouth and I must scream for examples of adult story telling. I can guarantee you that no game company today has the balls to tackle real adult issues. #27

You're going to buy the new console of your choice regardless. #26
Doesn't really matter. Kojima could slap the MGS logo on a box of excrement and it'll still sell five million.
Wait for the reviews of 9.5 and 10/10s to roll in. #10
I don't even care anymore.
If you're all honest with yourself and take the ending out of the equation; you'd see that the game has some serious flaws.
Besides, every game journalist gave ME3 stellar scores. Do you really think that they are going to try and ignore a "perfect game" like ME3?
Whatever. I'm through with Mass Effect. #12

I would've rather had nothing.
Not surprised in the slightest since I expected an IOS game of some sort, but we even got less than that.
A bloody browser game. #17
