SiKboy posted:So Squenix dont lose much, just delay a portion of their sales, and have presumably a big chunk of microsofts money for the trouble. I dont really see the point from Microsofts side though, this cant have been cheap, and I dont see a true exclusive tomb raider game shifting consoles, let alone one that they have basically paid to delay on their rivals console. My suspect is that Microsoft is still considering the videogame business as a cable set top box business where exclusivity and release windows for content probably matter more than other markets. What did they call the haveblue posted:I don't care how quirky or indie or mainstream or big-budget something is- if it appeals to me I'll play it. Agree.

I said come in! posted:Wild, and Rime are two indie games announced yesterday at GamesCom that are worth paying attention to. Wild is exclusive to PS4 and I think Rime is a timed exclusive. Rinkles posted:Both are plain exclusive. Sony owns the IPs. Yeah, Phil Spencer admitted back in February that he/Microsoft turned down Rime when it was being pitched by Tequila Works as a possible xbone exclusive called "Echoes of Siren."

http://www.joystiq.com/2014/08/13/diablo-3-ultimate-evil-edition-hits-58gb-in-eu-but-dont-worry/quote:The Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls - Ultimate Evil Edition file size on PS4 is 58GB in Europe, which is more than double the size of the US version, which clocks in at 26GB. The European download is so much larger because of the various language packs it includes, a Blizzard spokesperson tells Joystiq: When I played Destiny originally it downloaded only the Italian voices, when I switched the system to English then it downloaded 600Mb for the voice pack.

ufarn posted:It's kinda amazing how Europeans have an incentive to buy US versions for all sorts of reasons different than the price differential, given that we have to put up with poo poo on top of censored games like The Last of Us. They'll probably realize somethings up eventually. I have a UK PS4 and all my games have been bought from the US Store, they've gotta eventually make it easier to use a regions own store... right?

Seriously, Sony. Preloading, pausing, queuing, throttling. We need these things for uploads and downloads. Also, where's the "Multiplayer or Singleplayer downloads" that you promised us? Let us choose the language we download it in, regardless of region.toanoradian posted:In Master difficulty, are those yellow particles bullets?

TLOU was fully downloaded two days before it was out for me, and when my friend Aishan bought it digital, he was prompted to choose singleplayer or multi first. It's getting there

Always gotta bitch about something. Last gen: Fuckin' M$ putting ads all over the dash  This gen; Fuckin' Sony not letting me customize the UI because that's totally a thing consoles have allowed in the past, M$ did it better If these are the biggest problems than I see no problem.

You can organize the Xbox 360's UI with the "My Pins" section. It's not very good but it is better than Sony, who won't let me remove their legion of lovely WWE/Redbox video apps from the TV & Video folder, and won't let me organize my games.

They're hilariously inept and every one of their executives; even personable, chummy ol' Phil Spencer, seems to be constantly caught with their tongue flapping in ever stupid-er lashes. Yea it strikes me that Spencer was all like " Yo we got dat Tomb Raider here only! Nyah!" And then when called to clarify on it, he gets all "Look, I'm not the king of the universe! I don't "own" the air. I don't know everything, alright?!" I mean, I get the value of speaking casual as a figurehead, but he just comes off petulant.

Good enough for now but the way they display games is going to make a PS+ library unmanageable by 2016.

Fateo McMurray posted:I have to scroll a bit If Sony allowed for PS Game Archive games on the PS4, my home screen would be a 100+ row of PS1 and PC Engine games, with random apps place between them. That's just not "I have to scroll a bit ", that would be really annoying. The XMB was a better UI paradigm, and that was not very good either. Hell, the Vita allows for folders. I can manage apps better on it then on a PS4, and that UI is hot trash.

If I was getting paid for this I'd be putting much more effort into it instead of just calling dummies what they are. Would it be nice to be able to organize the UI however you want? Absolutely. Is the fact that you're not able to The Worst Thing? gently caress no. If it takes you more than 5 seconds to find the game you're looking for then there is something wrong with you. Yeah if they included customization in a future update I would like it. But if they don't, meh. There are much more important things to work on.

It would be nice if the console did not actively hinder searching for games by keeping the list in no particular order and randomly moving stuff around sometimes. vvvvvv There's a bunch of items on my list that I've never accessed (ShareFactory and a couple of Plus games I haven't tried yet) and they're sprinkled in among the stuff I definitely used. Also, that's a terrible strategy for more than, say, the last five items used.

If you have a disc in, the first game displayed is that. The rest are ordered in the order you've last played them. There is an order.

I think what would have been nice would be if Sony had like, finished putting together their UI and all the features they talked about pre-release before putting out their product instead of rushing it to market not even half done just so they could beat Microsoft to the punch. Also let me uninstall the Playroom that I'm never going to use, as well as all the icons for the video apps besides Amazon and Netflix.
