NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

thats my point..but they recovered. I'm sure it wasn't any easier, but the games came out regardless and look more or less the same. I have no issues with a dev having a preference, if he/she is making a game for a difficult platform and it still comes out, then whats the issue? its not like take two is going to stop developing for xbo cause its difficult. Profitability is too much of a risk. We all have an aspect that sucks about our job. By the way, how come no one here has inferred that the PC was difficult? lol. Jay kay with that one.

Sony, to date, has not turned a profit on the PS3. That's not a position any company wants to have to "recover" from.

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

Yeah, just to be clear. I have nothing against XBOne. It's a great system. I was just trying to communicate that I like the PS4 much more than the PS3 (both in terms of development and the controller.) When I stated that I was a convert, it's because for the last 2 gens I've primarily been an Xbox gamer, but this gen I can see myself playing a lot of PS4.

The unanimous comment was NOT that the entire company or dev team favored PS4 over XB1, I was trying to say that everyone in the office agrees that the PS4 is a great system. That's all.

And yes, it's true that a couple people in the office are Sony fanboys and won't touch the Xbox 1... but it's also true that some people in the office are MS fanboys and won't touch the PS4.

Hope that clears some things up a bit.

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

Question to those who are getting the Xbox One. Why? There's literally no good reason to buy it over the PS4. What's funny is that it's €100 more expensive so you'd have to be a Microsoft fanboy to get that.

Let's see, for me:

1. Xbox Live services
2. Xbox exclusive titles that I like (Gears for one)
3. I don't trust Sony/support the US company take your pick.
4. I like the controller MUCH better.
5. Kinect with every system (hence the main difference in price)

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

Feedback like this from Mike Wang actually makes me consider getting a PS4 instead.

A developer's perspective is based on the system and the tools to work with it. Your's will be the end user and they are normally COMPLETELY different. Don't change your mind because of what someone else says. Now, the controller comment is one thing. But if you've always liked MS's controller, I don't see that preference really changing all that much.

I don't get why anyone cares what someone else prefers as far as consoles go. I could care less what any one of you guys buy. To each their own.

Never underestimate the joy people get from being "right" about something or being able to say they told you so.

It's all the same. We're all sports fans here, or we should be. How many times does a player or a draftee pan out on a different team come back and style on your team of choice and fellow fan is all "See? I knew he'd be good! I told y'all!"

A similar mindset is what's at work here.

This sounded like a political speech after something was said and taken out of context.

The thing that I liked from that Mike Wang comment was how the system is very easy to develop for. Then again, the Xbox One is probably similar, too.

Still no clue which of these systems I'm going to pick up.

I'm proud of my body. Bring it on! Take a picture! It'll last longer.

BTW: Mike's post pretty much ends the debate I would say.

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

I'm getting the xbox one version and hoping for an option to use custom rosters. For me its the UI, and that kinect will actually be used since everyone has it. I like that ms went all in on kinect, even if I use it once a month, I like knowing that somewhere is a developer that will come up with something cool to use it and has no excuse for not developing on that inspiration. Now if the xbox one version has some deficient experience on NBA 2k, my favorite game, then I'll suck it up and eat the cost minus the trade in and get the PS4 version. Part of my reason is that I live in the UK now and the xbox one is coming out first. As I look at my day one purchases, I am struggling with the PS4 list so most of my games are multi platform on that system with the exception of NBA2k14. I probably would have gotten Madden for it also if not for the smart glass integration that I want to try out. As for the more power/less money argument, I look at it as a whole package. System + services and I am a bit jingoistic. I remember the

Love that they're loving the PS4. It's nice to no longer have your system get the run around because Xbox came out first when its not the best one out there.

Man as if I wasn't already looking forward to converting myself... This just cements it further.

At this point I legitimately feel sorry for the uninformed.

Exactly what I got from the article. To me, it was clear. This was Clearly in perspective to last gen and this gen referring to the ps brand. How anyone got confused is beyond me. Its just news sites trying to stir up an nonexistent console war.
