This is a different era or generation for consoles. I don't know what's going to happen. I know I'm not picking up Rise of the Tomb Raider for Xbox One. I'm going to wait and pick it up for the PS4 (my console of preference for multi-platform games, and I'm still working on Metal Gear Solid 5 anyway-open world games make for a lot of wasted time running from mission-to-mission, but I'm still enjoying it though not anywhere near as much as MGS4).
The th...
That's tough, really. Most people aren't going to pick it up. I'm a tech nerd, however, and like to see every angle and facet of gaming and technology I can. (I'm still working on Atmos and X), but even though I'm not a big fan of Microsoft, the Xbox 360, or Xbox One (even though I loved the Xbox), I still invested in and played Kinect... Just not on Xbox One (until the camera is priced at $30). I got a new tele for 3D gaming, picked up PlayStation Move, and the Eye, EyeTo...
What happened to their mobile App? I thought they were going to re-release it after the PS Plus version was released. What happened to the social aspects of Driveclub staying current with technology by syncing with your smartphone?
THAT'S YOUR DEFENSE AGAINST CALL OF DUTY!?!?! Yeah. That's not going to work. This is a prime example of what happens when you lie to your fanbase, and continually do so thinking that consumers won't notice. Uh... They do. Microsoft, to my knowledge, haven't even come out and apologized to consumers for such an atrocity and explained that this is something consumers will never see again. But, ya know what, they won't do it because according to Bill Gates, it makes them see...
26 million core gamers could answer that. Gosh, I don't know. Backwards compatibility isn't that big of a deal. The ports are for those that never had a PS3 but still need to experience what was great about the PS3 but would never give it a shot. (That's from Sony themselves). Technically,the PS4 does have backward compatibility based on the complex architecture of the PS3, PS Now beat Xbox One to the punch but in the end, PS4 doesn't and never will have backward compatibility...
There's always the Good Cop and then the Bad Cop. Phil Spencer is the Good Cop and Aaron Greenberg is the Bad Cop. (Generally) Whatever comes out of Phil Spencers mouth is something positive about everyone else. He's admitted defeat, basically, but still tries to be a good sport about it.
Then you've got this piece of work that just let's his brain run on auto-pilot that lives in denial. (Sounds like a fanboy all the time) and just can't seem to live in re...
They're buying time. It's taken a long time, historically, to make a God of War game. Longer than games take on average. Remastered versions take significantly less time. The hard stuff is all done. It's just a new fresh coat of paint. That's why.
This is a really uneducated post. First off, God of War changed gaming. It was innovative.
Remastered games, I can understand this on the PS4. On Xbox One? No. Gears of War had some 5 million sales. The PS3 didn't sell like the 360 did. More consumers have adopted the PS4 from the Xbox camp, not vice versa. Therefore, there were a lot of games missed out on on the PS3 that consumers can now enjoy and see what they missed. Everyone I knew had a Wii and a 360. Few had a PS3...
Awesome looking game from an awesome developer but, no. This is lame.
All of this bragging about how $60is worth it for Xbox Live and how great a service it is but, it has problems connecting, takes longer to update and install games before you can play them. Xbox Live is no better than PSN if not worse with functionality that PSN.
Come to think of it, Phil Spencer is just making excuses, and I can prove it in one word, or one name. Nintendo. Nintendo games are still couch co-op games. The gaming community hasn't gone on-line only as he suggests. Quite the contrary. This is just Spencer trying to sell Xbox Live. With low console sales, Halo 5 is really all Microsoft has left. Which at this point isn't going to be enough to save the Xbox One, which could turn this console generation into the Apple strategy, which...
Fan boy. You'll be able to play it on your PC and eventually the PS4 and it'll run better on both for your patience. This article is not the rationale of a gamer, but of a fan boy. If you'd have said: Dead Rising 3 or Sunset Overdrive with a list of other Xbox One games, I'd say OK. But, Rise of the Tomb Raider clearly paints a picture of fanboyism.
Man, his only publicity is to help sell the PlayStation. He may as well be employed by Sony.
Um.... Who said we do? We're just happy Microsoft has another knife sticking out of their back. Then it'll go back to just Sony and Nintendo. Um yeah. I HATE Microsoft.
Aaron Greenberg is so full of himself. It's like the good cop/ bad cop routine. Phil Spencer plays the Good Cop, and Aaron Greenberg is the jerk. All of this positive charisma is him lying through his teeth, and he knows this. Everyone knows he's playing the desperate little boy and it's like watching a lion get frisky with one of the pride. He's humiliating himself in front of a crowd that's ready to throw up.
He actually thinks people buy into the crap h...
I think you're letting your ego get a little inflated and a bit ahead of yourself. Sony could care less whether they finished "first place" or "third place". They're more interested in just being profitable versus' Microsoft who've obsessed with status in the business world. This is Sony simply making up for not getting Uncharted 4 out to fans, as it was delayed, and releasing it during the best selling month of the year.
As well, I guess y...
This is probably running on PC or even more likely PS4. Definitely not running Xbox One hardware. Greatness Awaits. (Ya see. The only thing Microsoft knows how to do is mimic others. It's impossible for Microsoft to go their own way. They're afraid if they do they'll crash and burn. What they likely don't realize is that doing their own thing will most likely make them more successful but, Microsoft just can't think for themselves.)
You're missing the point. This was a much simpler time. Carts are durable and at one time, you were expected to ship a finished product, this was done before you could update games and devs got lazy shipping a game in quantity rather than quality.
You've missed the point.
This won't be like back in the day where you just went to K.B. Toys or Kmart and bought the game and if it didn't work just took it back and exchanged it for a working one. These will be very limited releases (to avoid the E.T. failure of Atari) that will be purchased online. You won't pick them up at Walmart, Toys R Us, or Best Buy.
Why? They've lied to us from the announcement of Xbox One. They've even worked with other development companies, under the reign of Phil Spencer such as EA and Ubisoft to continue to lie to us. They've not once taken the time to apologize in a big manner and made efforts to change their ways. They're hiding it, ignoring it, and playing it off as its a weakness to do so. Look at Sony today with the PlayStation 4. It's seeing success, why? Look at the PlayStation Network out...
