You can't lie to everyone for weeks saying online connectivity was essential and that we would benefit from installing games and not being able to share them and expect us to forget about it.
@Halloll @The1stFishBone Microsoft keeps all their profits overseas and doesn't pay taxes. Be a patriot and don't buy Microsoft until they bring all their capital stateside.
But he didn't do anything. He worked on those sequels and then quit when Epic finally started making a new game. Gears 2 and 3 were both steps backward with him at the helm. The only franchise I can think of the regressed more is Halo.
@bmart970 @The1stFishBone Some of the games looked good. Battlefield 4's Physics were stunning, even with the building collapse likely being scripted. Destiny was much better looking than I expected(Since it is cross generational) But I wanted to see new ways of interacting that were not a gimmick. Smart Glass isn't good enough. Ryse had a fantastic concept but the controls were an astonishing disgrace contextual quicktime events......pass.
@bmart970 I read it. It was a fairly good overview. To me both conferences were a huge failure in one way. MS didn't show how Kinect 2 would make core games better.(I want to see head tracking as an option in every game. Mostly to peak around corners in a stealth FPS.) Sony needed to show me the sort of things the light-strip and touch surface on there controller could add to games, and we saw absolutely nothing. I also wanted to see Vita interacting with PS4, WiiU style, and the new Eye doing some rudimentary skeletal tracking and voice recognition, Kinect style. Those thing can be done if Sony gets the software working. The only real difference we have from a hardware perspective is the PS4 looks to be about 40-60% faster. I wanted to see how the game will play differently......I really wanted to see head tracking. I expect it will be in COD Ghosts. Hopefully that will jumpstart the bandwagon.
