Brightman posted:Maybe the PS5 will be backwards compatible since the PS4's architecture isn't completely bonkers. Granted they seem fairly content with milking the slim and pro for a bit longer anyway. At this point, there's very little reason to invest in custom architecture. Handheld consoles will be ARM, stationary will be x86 since it won't have the same power and cooling constraints. BC should work from here through the next gen or two easily. I think the bigger issue that they are going to encounter is when to draw the line on older console compatibility with newer games that need more resources to be playable. The PS5 may not be much beyond the PS4 Pro from a hardware perspective, but they may need to make the name change in order move the games past older hardware targets.

Titanfall 2's single-player campaign alone was worth the $60 when it first came out.

Real hurthling! posted:Feels like it has to be. After everyone switched to ps4 from 360 they built big libraries that would lock them into the ecosystem going forward Yeah, that's a great point, and if it weren't for the fact that Sony was killing it like 2:1 they'd probably speed it up a bit and release a newer console sooner rather than later, cellphone upgrade model aside, not sure how that could play into this. bull3964 posted:At this point, there's very little reason to invest in custom architecture. Handheld consoles will be ARM, stationary will be x86 since it won't have the same power and cooling constraints. The line between games being on newer hardware or older will just be blurred like it usually is at first where the games will be released on both with different SKUs and shittier graphics on the PS4. I think the next obvious jump hardware wise is just true 4k all the time, maybe with even higher resolutions possible depending on how long it takes for the next hardware iteration to come around, although 4ktv adoption rate still seems rather low today...okay, poo poo, I'm wrong about that, the adoption rate has more than doubled in the last three years and reportedly it's being adopted much faster than HDTV, huh.

Between Switch and PS4 this is probably one of my favorite console gens since PS2/Xbox/GC and SNES/Genesis.

Hopper posted:Why would you even consider preordering a remastered game? You possibly dont understand just how badly I want to play more Burnout my friend. New burnout would have been better, and honestly I preferred 3 to Paradis,e but there hasnt even been anything reasonably close to a burnout game in this console generation.

Why do you guys get 20% off on pre-order from prime? I never heard of that here. Goddamn Americans and your stupidly generous discounts on everything. Over her either is a whopping 2€ discount apparently

Handheld consoles will be ARM, stationary will be x86 since it won't have the same power and cooling constraints. This is what I'm thinking. The previous model of console releases makes no sense anymore. I think PS5 will happen, but it'll just be a name to drum up hype for it more than an entirely new platform. I see the future of consoles being closer to phone releases, only not on a yearly release schedule. it'll be the only way to keep them relevant and affordable. Of course I really hope this includes pretty much full BC. veni veni veni fucked around with this message at 00:07 on Feb 21, 2018 |

The Dreamcast had so many unique and outright bizarre games that it was impossible not to love. Shenmue, Jet Grind Radio, ILLBLEED, Seaman, Typing of the Dead, Phantasy Star Online, Space Channel 5, that's in addition to all the usual console fare and arcade-perfect ports. I loved how eclectic the Dreamcast library was, you just don't see that kind of celebration of weirdness in the modern console market.

Even the worst games on the Dreamcast tended to be kind of interesting. One of the games I found most fascinating was Industrial Spy: Operation Espionage, which was like a pseudo-Lifeline where you played the operator to an anime Mission Impossible team. It plays like trash but the idea of managing a team of anime spies stealing top secret stuff was cool. ILLBLEED is such a terrible game mechanically but it's a treat to see everything in it.

Arcades were coming towards the end of their lifespan (  ) at that time, and a lot of it was because consoles were starting to be able to duplicate those kinds of graphics at home. Man, I miss arcades.

The base game is probably worth it if you like the Far Cry formula since it's more of the same. I never really got that interested in the DLC, although that escape from prison roguelike mode sounded really cool.

Thanks again for the Bloodborne tips guys! I beat Gascoigne and now I’m officially at the furthest point of the game that I’ve ever been. And not giving up this time! My heart felt like it was going to explode at the end of that boss fight, gently caress. It was awesome though. I recognized that when I’m low on health and the enemy is too, I have a habit of panicking and trying to hack and slash to win. It doesn’t often work and I’m learning to stay cool under pressure. Game is so good. I can’t guarantee I won’t get mad at it and drop it again but right now I’m feeling great. Does anyone care about my BB posts? I don’t want to be annoying with it and could always track down the main thread or shush up. It’s just fun to talk about and I’m sure it’s amusing for some of you to listen to someone experience the game (mostly, thx inability to not look at boss screenshots) fresh.

Bloodstained looks loving great; still very excited. jeffLebowski posted:is it me... or is uncharted lost legacy by far the best uncharted game? i started it the other day just for completions sake and i could not believe how great it looks, how well written it is, how cool the finale is, how good the chloe/nadine bromance is, how perfect the pacing is, and several other things that are spoilerish in nature (i mean goddamn... that last level). i was really surprised by how well the uncharted formula really works when the fat and filler is trimmed (i liked 4, but it does get slow sometimes). its just kind of strange that the best uncharted game doesnt have nathan drake in for a single second. i went from kind of being done with the series to absolutely being up for more. LL is an awesome greatest hits collection and the melee combat upgrades are loving sweet. Its highs aren't as good as UC3, tho, and neither are its character moments. I liked LL a lot better than 4.

I love reading Bloodborne posts. The main BB thread is super active considering the age of the game as well. It barely leaves the games front page. The BB thread revels in tales of players on their first run and I'm pretty sure a lot of posters in here have a fondness for BB stories as well. There is a lot of lore in the BB thread which might be worth skipping then reading when you're done. You'll get a lot of fun holy poo poo moments throughout the game and the more from reading the thread after since the game is so dense.

It was the first internet-capable thing in my home (and the only one for quite a while) and it introduced me to all the terrible things that make me who I am today. At my core I am still that kid staying up until 3 AM goofing off on IRC or playing PSO or Quake 3 Arena.

I definitely prevented at least one late-night family emergency phone call from getting through to my parents because I had the phone line tied up while I downloaded porn jpegs displayed at 480i in that godawful browser. Bless that console, it provided so many formative experiences.
