What's new

PlayStation Gaming Discussion – PS5, PS4, Games & Sony PlayStation News

Been reading online, I guess the game isn't as bad as everyone made it out to be. Alot of people are loving it.
yeah, there's always gonna be people that like it and people that hate it. Just didn't live up to they hype for most reviewers. It's all a matter of what you like.Case in point is this review: http://www.theverge.com/2015/2/19/8062515/order-1886-playstation-4-review

Basically says the same stuff as many negative reviews (length, linear, etc), but the reviewer doesn't seem to be a fan of open world, and the linear gameplay was up his alley.

 
I see that Uncharted 4 has been delayed until Spring 2016 now. I was very disappointed by that news...
 
PS4 Firmware 2.50 coming March 26

Some of the features included:

- Suspend & Resume

- Accessibility Options (remap keys to suit your preferences, colour blind support)

- Remote Play & Share Play at 60 fps

- Facebook Friend Search

- Sub-account to Master account Upgrade

- Trophy Improvements (Automatic screenshot upon trophy completion, delete 0% games)

- Share Video Clips to Dailymotion

- Application Backup to external HDD

And more.

I'll be honest I am sitting here watching the PS4 E3 live thing and I am not all that impressed. There is really nothing break through and everything we mostly saw last year. All we are getting is one month early releases then the same thing gets released on the xbox one. Not very impressed at all.
 
One month early releases on what?
Most of the exclusive stuff, but then it comes out on the xbox. So all you have to do is wait. There wasn't any announcement like the xbox had. The really lost this year as far as I am concerned.
 
I did not read in depth of what Sony showed at E3 but doesn't seem all too overly impressive. I know The Last Guardian was hyped and finally shown and a few other things but nothing compared to Microsoft in terms of crazy new and big. Final Fantasy VII Remake was shown by Square but that is only first on PS4. If it would have been Sony only that would have been huge.

To be honest the whole E3 has been kind of terrible in my opinion.

 
About dam time.

The Media Player works with both your home server and when plugging a USB stick with media into one of the available ports on the PS4. Your home server will appear as a media option in the player automatically and finding your media is simple and quick. You may also simply enjoy music as background music on your PS4!

PS4 Firmware 3.0 Features

Sony announced few new features that will come with 3.0 firmware. They say this is not final list.

  • Events: A new hub for events has been added, giving an overview of activities taking place in the games you play most, as well as official broadcasts. For instance, you may see an update for a double XP weekend, a special enemy appearing at a scheduled time, or seasonal events like in-game towns being decorated for the winter.
     
     
     
  • YouTube live: PS4 owners will be able to live stream gameplay to YouTube. Live streams will be viewable across YouTube, including on the new YouTube Gaming mobile app and website.
     
     
     
  • Online storage capacity increase: PlayStation Plus members’ PS4 cloud storage capacity will increase from 1GB to 10GB
     
     
     
  • Favourite Groups: Favourite Groups has been added to the Friends app, letting you add new or existing groups as a Favorite Group and quickly access groups of people you like to play games with frequently. This will make the process of getting a game session up and running even easier.
     
     
     
  • Communities: PS4 users will have the ability to create communities based around shared interests, like games, genres and more. Communities include a message board with general discussion, screenshots shared by players and the ability to join parties or games. If you want to tackle a big multiplayer raid, but don’t have enough friends, this could be a great way to connect with other likeminded players.
     
     
     
  • Sharing video clips to Twitter: Users will have the ability to share video clips directly to Twitter. The maximum video length is 10 seconds, but you’ll have the ability to trim longer clips.
     
     
     
  • Live from PlayStation: We’ve added the ability for users to view popular broadcasts, video clips and screenshots on the Live From PlayStation area
     
     
     
  • Screenshots: We’ve listened to your feedback and we’re happy to confirm that PNG format is now an option for Screenshot saves
     
     
     
  • Now Playing: The Now Playing screen will display more information about what your friends are doing, and you’ll be able to quickly jump into a party, request a screen share, or jump to PlayStation Store to buy a game your friend is playing.
     
     
     
  • Request to watch: Want to view a friend’s gameplay session? Now you can send a ‘Request to Watch’ notification to a player, which will start a live broadcast or Share Play invitation to the person playing.
     
     
     
  • Stickers: Tired of typing out messages? With this update, you’ll be able to send stickers to friends through the messages.
     
     
     





 
I actually enjoyed my PS4 with the last game I played. I have used it far more than my xbox one.
 
I was saying I have anything against the PS4, just my personal use of it. If you enjoy games on it over the XBox then great.
