I think the sports franchise should be bi-annually with just a dlc roster update after year one and then a new full game on year two. This would give the developers two full years. The issue with this, money, they don't want to lose 15 million Fifa sales at £40ish a copy each year.

Just talking in relation to Bayonetta: I've played both Bayonetta games and I genuinely don't see what all the fuss is about in relation to sexism. She is portrayed as a strong adult aged character with a very strong set of fighting skills who can handle any situation thrown at her. Yes she flirts and acts in a sexual provocative way, though I would point out the reality that some women act in this way in the real world.

Now if you take some of the Japenese anime based shows that feature young somewhat underage girls with massive breasts, permanently erect nipples, underwear usually on show and when they fight usually results in the removal of said outfit; I could see that a reviewer may question the content but if the show was well produced should it get a 2/10?

To me a video game review should consist on reviewing the mechanics of a game, do it control well, what's the graphics like, framerate issues, sound issues, any game breaking bugs and so on. It should only focus the score on those parts, as the story is subjective and that part of a review is personal opinion. An example of a personal opinion is; I do not like the Nathan Drake character, yet others adore him. Who's to say I'm right and they're wrong? Should I take one, two or three points off for it? A personal opinion should be the part at the end of a review that a reviewer gives his/her opinion on the story/sexisim/misogyny and it shouldn't have effect on the games score.

I would reboot the Sonic franchise, take it back to its roots, and reintroduce it as a fast paced 2D side scrolling game. It doesn't need to be 3D and they can save development costs buy going 2D and then sell it at a £14.99 or £19.99 price point. I feel Sega are trying to force Sonic into this 3D game world generation, Street Fighter didn't need it to be successful and they only have to look at New Super MArio on WiiU to see that forced 3D isn't needed.

Its not a good idea buying the Season Passes upfront. Look at Destiny, same price for XB & PS pass yet one has more content. If anybody wants Digital Download to succeed then at the very least, price parity between it and Disc must exist. Why would I pay £54.99 for Dragon Age Inquisition when I can buy it retail for £44.99 or as low as £38.99 if using online? Amazon (uk) have a deal that I can buy Dragon Age, Far Cry 4 and AC Unity for £122 on XB1 disc versus £164.97 for digital download!

@RedentSC

All I can say is wow, you get a link to the developer saying 1080p 60fps, yet you start babbling about hard facts when you have none of your own. Your only fact is that the beta test is in 720p so you presume the full game will be, despite being over 1 year away. Why can't it be in 1080p, what fact do you have to say it won't be? They could easily make the game with assets from Halo 4 and it would be 1080p 60fps as in the MCC bundle.

@Wasdie: Well use the scientific method for anything like that.

What is the Hypothosis? The game will be at 1080

What is the evidence? the game is at 720

Is it repeatable? yes at 720

Right now.. its looking like it will be 720. Can really argue against this

Don't mean to rain on your "Hypothsis" however, Hypothetically the game could run at 1080p, 720p or in between. I would suggest (scientific as your have done) the game will be 1080p 60fps based on this 1080p60. I realise that its not as proven theory(scientific) like your "hypothosis) but I feel it may have some credibility to it.

Here is a benchmark with 3 8800 gtx in sli. It get's about 32 fps on 1900 x 1200, with a much weaker cpu. Also on very high detail settings. I think it's pretty obvious 3 8800 gtx in sli beat the ps4's gpu. Allthough any hardware specialist doesn't need any benchmarks to know this.

Are you sure that it's the 8800 gtx in that benchmark? Since Crysis 3 is DX11 only unless you are using the unofficial patch.

I think this graph refers to the first Crisis game (not Crysis 3) and how multiple cards running in SLI compare to a single card. It shows 1 card running very high settings achieves just over 10fps compared to 3 cards which is just over 30fps. You will notice that the biggest jump is between one and two cards, and its not until the quality settings are increased does the 3rd card offer any real performance increase over the second.

@SolidGame_basic:

You missed my point. I'm saying Exclusives aren't that important. Having GTA, COD, FIFA is more important from a sales viewpoint. GTA5 sold 34,000,000, let's say 17m each in each console. It's double any Playstation exclusive and even Halo 3 only managed 10,000,000.

I'm worried that another two to three years losses of this magnitude will send Sony over the edge. They need to shift that phone business on or dare I say it, expand onto windows phone. A gap exists there for a flagship handset, especially with Nokia brand name gone.

Playstation sales are great, game sales are poor on it though. UBisoft stated they sold 31% of games on PS4 compared to 15% on XB1, Sony have sold double, nearly treble the numbers XB1 has.

Everybody keeps saying exclusives are not on ps4, yet the thing keeps selling. Maybe exclusives aren't important outside of system wars?
