I heard that SONY plans to charge for online multiplayer on PS4? Anyone know if that's true? They said they think they remember reading it in Game Informer.

[QUOTE="ProjectPat187"][QUOTE="rjdofu"][QUOTE="ProjectPat187"] strongly agree with this guy, Im sticking with my PC, I have always been a PC gamer anyway by far the best platform.

Unless the PC can play all those consoles games, I doubt console gaming will go away.

im not worried if consoles stay or die, Im still sticking with the best platform the PC, besides I buy all the consoles anyway just so i can play the few games I do like on the consoles.

Yeah, PC is my main platform as well, however, some of the my favourite games ever are on consoles. The day games like Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden & Uncharted coming to PC is the day I quit console gaming.

seriously though, once you have a pc hooked up to a high def tv you realize there's no reason to get a console, ever. The real problem is that you can't update and control things on a console at your own will.

Not true at all. Maybe if all you play is shooters and single player games. Otherwise, no. Also, I think it was just a rumor what I heard from that guy. Don't let me down SONY! I don't want to pay hundreds of dollars for a console only to have to pay a subscription service to use it. Even include a game with it please.

um do you think that the PC only has shooters and single player games first of all, what else do you play on a console but shooters or single player games second of all, pc has puzzle, RTS, strategy in general, 4x, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

lol no, there are a lot of games that PC doesn't get. The fighting, action adventure, and JRPG selections on PC are incredibly weak compared to consoles.

Exactly right. I play mostly online sports games. PS3 has MLB The Show which is the best baseball game offered. I play online team play in NHL. Let me know if PC is nearly as good. PC gamers come here talking about Steam and as if PC is the answer for everyone. Not true at all. There are a lot of games that are much better with a console and XBOX Live.

[QUOTE="shawn30"]

Lol, cows are drama kings these days. PS4 and Xbox one will share just about every single multi-plat game, and each will have a ton of exclusives. It'll be the extra services or the lack of wanting them that will decide. I'm more than ready for the Xbox One as I'll have the new Masss Effect series, Madden, Halo, and whatever these 15 new excluisives are where 8 are new IP's. To say the PS4 is the only hope reeks of fanboyism, IMO. PC isn't going anywhere and once MS drops there games at E3 they will be just fine.

mgs_freak91
Lemmings these days, they love paying for second hand video games. Trying to make life worse for gamers, good job you guys.

They're not even gamers. Look at what that razgriz guy said. Casuals will destroy this industry.

What I'm reading is people bitching about features they don't need to use. And used game purchasers who, let's face it, no one cares about. Ghost_702

No people are bitching over the fact that they wanted to see a console release and get all the bad rumors debunked.

But instead we got a set top box, and all the bad rumors was confirmed...

If you are releasing a games console, why is it that at the wherry first showing of the thing, they concentrate on almost everything other than gameing??

and lemmings then boast about how they have like 15 exclusives in the first year, Sony better watch out.. WUT?  Sony showed of 3 exclusive at there event, that would be ready for the launch Window, and still has more for E3. Not to mention that we don't know what over half of these new exclusives are, it could be Sesame Street 2 for all we know :D

With Nintendo out of the picture for now (WiiU flop and Nintendo absent from E3)

and Microsoft who have just recently dug their own grave

does Sony realize they have the chance to get the ENTIRE market in the palm of their hands?

I think they do. The thing that they need to do is DO NOT F#CK THIS UP. Just that. They don't even need something amazing. Playing it safe will be enough,

I think the Xbox will still do well enough and the Nintendo has always been in steady third place as far as recognition. 

Cant say PS4 wont have a better market share, they should if they dont embarrass themselves like MS, but they wont own the market by any means.

I'm not into "used" games, I like it mint, but "Always on" is a complete let-downer for me though. I actually like the simple design of the X1. Think I'll go Ps4 in the end. Let's see what E3 will bring.

Most of the things mentioned by Microsoft don't bother me. I don't really buy used games, I don't sell my games, I don't play offline (though, I often have my internet go out randomly), I don't mind the Kinect being plugged in as long as I don't have to be in a living room to play it (I like in an apartment that can't even support the Kinect), etc. etc. What DOES bother me, however, is that Microsoft seemingly doesn't give a darn that they are pissing off a large part of their consumer base. That doesn't bode well for me in the future, which almost assuredly will push me towards a PS4 until I see otherwise.

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"][QUOTE="razgriz_101"]Isnt sony actually do a lot of the same as the xbox one? the whole focus on social centric stuff people whinged about, then people whine bout the xbox doing the same, newsflash kiddies and basement dwellers people want their little black boxes to do more than just gaming.

Will PS4 require and internet connection and will it block used games? I don't think so. Until then...

Didn't Sony say it will be up to the developers and publishers?

PS4 is looking VERY good, but it seems Nintendo is the only one that remembers what a gaming console is. I dont get this board. Everybody thats raging against XB1 should be embracing the WiiU, but instead they're cheering for the XB1's slightly more attractive sis.

No used games = no buy for me. And I couldn't care less about being able to switch back and forth from TV to apps to games; when I buy a console, I buy it for the goddamn games, not so it can fill some all-in-one entertainment center niche. I actually thought Sony would be this desperate to make the next Playstation all about being some jack-of-all-trades shitbox since they didn't do extraordinarily well this gen, but imagine my surprise when Microsoft thinks they need to compete directly with Nintendo for control of the casual market by releasing a glorified cable box and Sony realizes that gamers determine whether a console succeeds or fails.

How is leaving it up to third parties worse than making the restriction of used games a feature inherent to your console?

I think at this rate PC will be the major gaming platform again. Consoles are trying to be more like PC's with each generation with multiple uses besides gaming, they're just doing it worse. If I wanted to play a PC, I'd play a PC.

sune_Gem

Yep. I can see consoles going out of existence soon. They are lost - they have no idea what to cater and where their market is. They are trying hard to be a multimedia box with TV shows, apps, sport garbage when they are supposed to be focused on GAMES. They are also wannabe PC that runs games terribly with framerates between 15fps to 25fps. They just don't make any sense anymore. Consoles are a mess.

PC is the way to go, and it will become major after all of this mess of console gaming.

And this is coming from a person who's never owned a Sony console. The Wii U has already proven to be a very predictable flop, and now with the incredibly unimpressive Xbox One reveal (stupid console name too) which barely even seems to have games in mind over watching TV and looking up sports news, it's looking like the PS4 is the last hope for an actual gaming console next generation. Right?

except the controller. they need to move on. if sony AT LEAST offered a second controller option a the left thumbstick where the d-pad is, they would win over like (guessing here) 75% of former xbox360 owners instantly. i'm ready for them to announce it. if sony does that, i'm buying one at launch.

There are always 3rd party controllers that allow you to use a controller similar to a 360 controller. I would just suggest looking for one like that. Personally I think the PS has a better controller for someone like me.

Get your facts straight.You do not always have to be online to play a game.You just have to log on at least once a day.Its really not a big deal,unless your a sony fanboy.
