Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

No I know how console releases typically work. Just trying to get and understanding on if everyone was saying these are as easy to develop for as PC's why they aren't being pumped out faster? I mean PC games are dropping quicker and quicker from what I have seen. Don't know for sure on that as I am not a PC gamer. Just relating to what I see in stores when I go to them.

The PC gaming platform also has a dearth of development tools available for it and has been available for many decades. They also don't have to deal specifically with Sony or MS for release policies.

High budget PC games still take years to develop - the only difference is that on PC the new trend is to release your game unfinished at full price and call it "early access". Be glad you don't have to deal with that on consoles.

So yes, this generation is much easier to design for - that still doesn't mean games can instantly appear in 6 months being a quality finished product that people will want to pay for.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

The Show is working across platforms on all their features, though right? Its launching feature complete like all the other versions.

I'll wait an extra month for that.


Apart from some PS+ games nothing is really popping up as a red-flag except maybe DriveClub and Watch Dogs, but that's just wait and see.

My feelings exactly with regards to the Show. Im more than happy waiting an extra month for the Show to drop on the PS4 if that means keeping all the features accross all platforms.

Im also fine with some games getting delayed such as Watchdogs and Drive Club if it means a better game.

Now if you told me next week that Infamous was getting delayed id be surprised and a bit upset since that is one of the games im looking forward to playing and seeing with my own eyes.

In general, I feel they are delaying the game to make a better product so I am cool with that. In the meantime, I have plenty of time to catch up on some games I missed on the PS3 while I wait for these titles to hit the PS4.

I love early access games. Hell, battlefield 4 feels like an early access game, but I paid full price for it.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Just picked up the Gold headset. Charging now but did pop them on and fired up Outlast...

Like the game needed more creepiness...

Sound was very good and they were comfy albeit not long play time yet as I didn't stay on for long. Will use them tonight a lot when I get settled in.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Wasn't there suppose to be a remote play feature on PS4 where I could watch and actually control another friends game to help them get through parts. Actually I know there was, did they cut it or is it just delayed.

It will come with a firmware update sometime. *Allegedly*

Don't mean to beat a dead horse, but is there any new information on when the media playback will be available? Like streaming videos and music from a computer onto the system?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Got my gold wireless headset today and I am really impressed. I'm in no way an audiophile or anything but these things are incredible.

I only had time to play half a game of madden today but it really makes a difference. I'm hearing things I never heard in madden before; the sound of the ball hitting the hands of a receiver, the crack of Aaron Rogers bones (hehe) and you remember how madden was marketing that living stadiums stud everyone is disappointed with? Well with these headphones EA wasn't lying. The crowd is so awesome. Oh and hearing crazy train and welcome to the jungle in the background is really great to. One thing I would like to see via the headset app is a custom set for sports games to enhance the crowd even more. (MLB the show I'm looking at you)

I'm really excited for tomorrow because when I get home, the blinds get shut, the lights go out, headphones go on and I'm gonna play outlast. I've been saving this game to play with these headphones and based on what I've heard I hope I don't cry to much.

If you've been thinking about getting these I suggest you do.

Unless they've removed it, there is a custom football EQ set.

I'd like to know this as well. I know it's probably down the list in terms of importance but I really miss this feature from the PS3 and hope it wasn't just lip service early on when they said they would patch it in and that they actually follow through and do just that.

Beat it, we need to stay on Sony for this as I find it a huge loss that The Show will lack Sounds of The Show this year due to the lack of MP3 support on the PS4. Unless more are vocal on Twitter and other social media, they will put it off.


I also picked up the Gold headset this week. Was very worried about the fit, but they are very comfortable for those with the big head. Sound in not audiophile, but for $99 I have heard worse that costed 2-3 times more. If Sony marketing would wake up and get these bundled or add some discount on these with a PS4 purchase, they would sell a ton.

What are the advantages of buying these compared to some beats or regular headphones, I have some beats studios.

Microphone?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

You could buy a microphone attachment for 5-30 bucks. That's what I'm using right now with my headphones.

ModMic is a good one that's in high demand right now.
