Shinji Mikami praises PS4, says it lets him 'create something more realistic'

No offence but from what I've seen, despite looking like a great horror game, there seems to be a lack of realistic emotions/expressions from our main hero...especially when he's facing super natural things. That kind of dumbs down the horror experience in my opinion, if the main hero doesn't get scared, how are you supposed to.

woow just woow you notice the dumbed down emotion expression when in the most of modern games are the Gameplay which is Dumbed Down

i hope the evil within isn't dumbed down in term of GAMEPLAY.

gamers care more about gameplay than graphic emotion and other crap that doesn't have nothing to do with gaming/gameplay

Because in Shinji Mikami horror games it's not the game character who is supposed to experience emotions but the videogamer. Go play Resident Evil remake, zero, code veronice, Resident Evil 2.

I'm not talking about full on emotions and expressions through character development

Just a little acknowledgement of what he's seeing...you know crazy monsters and other f***** up stuff.

Not even a "Oh my god"...come on, not that hard.

The guy just seems a bit wooden if he's not going to react to his surroundings.

Well... Leon never got scared in RE4 and that is still a great game. The only game I felt that the main character actually got scared was Outlast. Other games you're in 3rd person and behind a person and can't even see their expressions anyway.

After the shit he saw in RE2 though...it pretty much hardened him

Do you know Naruto personally? I know some think its Sasuke, but you really dont know.

see that's what you get when you build amazing hardware. i have a feeling there will be certain differences with each version. :p

[Genuine-User]

I'm sure the game will look quite good, just a shame the animations are quite old school.

[LightDiego]

Maybe you could release Vanquish 2 for PS4 then?

[Activemessiah]

No love for the xbone?

[Software_Lover]

As does every new console generation.

[Hello_World]

None one said anything about the underpowered Xbone, struggling to run games in 1080p in the year 2014.

[Software_Lover]

............... you're right. No one said anything about XBone, neither did I?

[Hello_World]

By saying new console generation you're implying all consoles. I'm just stating Xbone is an outdated turd and prob why he only mentioned PS4.

[MeliMel]

Well in technical standards so is the PS4. So whats your point?

[Cryptcuzz]

You're an embarrassment to all Playstation fans.
Don't talk like that. Don't go around with you're elitist personality and making us all look bad. If anything I hope you were fans of the other consoles instead. Please just stop.

[Hello_World]

I'm trolling nerds, don't go emo. I have a high end PC. But yea, Xbone sucks.

[SaveFerris]

The game is a multi-platform cross-gen title, so I doubt that he wouldn't say something similar if asked about the Xbox One version.

[stripe814]

keep it coming. the more the better the merrier

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

I don't understand when devs praise the PS4 and how powerful it is but yet they're not taking advantage of the hardware. The game is releasing on every platform including those 10 year old consoles that are weaker than the new LG G3 phone. So that doesn't make any since.

[Gore-Content]

Yeah, too bad your next game doesn't look anything remotely as good as the best looking game for this console. Unless you were showing off last gen footage.

[kewlkat007]

Imagine a high-end PC....
