Forums - Gaming Discussion - What WOULD make me buy a PS4

Look, Driveclub, Bloodborne, No Man's Sky, Uncharted IV are nice exclusives for the PS4 to have, let me get that out of the way. This Gen, I went for the Wii U, coming from the Xbox 360 last Gen and the PS2/Xbox during 6th Gen.

Halo, Fable, Crysis, Metro, CoD were the kind of games that I used to enjoy a whole bunch, but ever since I bought a Nintendo DS in 2010 (I know, quite late), my tastes have changed. I started to play Pokémon again, I rediscovered Mario games.

Now, I enjoy Star Fox 64 3D, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Trine 2, MK8. I like playing the Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper and Spyro (both the Spyro the Dragon and the Legend of Spyro) games. Recently, I'm enjoying the heck out of the new Unreal Tournament.

Mayby call it a reversion of tastes. But Sony really lacks many of it's big oldies. Where's Crash? Where's Spyro? Where's Sly or Jak? Where are all the good old platformers or more colorful games at (and don't you dare awnser Knack).

I really think Sony could convince me to get a PS4 if they went all Nintendo and started ramping up in house production. Same for Microsoft, since the only exclusive game that's worth it for me is Killer Instinct.

Needed to get that off my chest.

The market has largely moved on from those games, although Sony do still make them from time to time. Puppeteer was good, and Tearaway Unfolded is coming soon. Seen Sly 5 rumoured as well.



Neptunia.

No, I did not read all that.



If Halo , Scalebound(or Bayonetta 3) and a AC with a setting that interests me was on PS4.....I would get it then.

You can play with Spyro on the PS4 Skylanders version btw. :P



Rocket League is soon upon us!

Haven't played much of LBP 3 yet, but I've heard great things about Knack from nonreviewers.  

Aside from that, I'd love to see a new Crash and Jak.  Never played Spyro/Sly though.  

Plus we have at least one Ratchet and Clank game coming.  

Which if it does well, we'll very likely see even more!  

I'd also love to see a Modnation Racers game, fix those load times!

I played Knack, and if you like platformers, that game is despicable. The platforming is way too easy, fights with enemies feel or too easy or too arbitrarily difficult, implementation of Stealth mechanics that simply do not work, growth mechanic is pointless, story is just bad.



Ratchet and Clank is coming, as they're rebooting the series to coincide with the movie, and I'm willing to bet they'll do the same with Sly next year to coincide with his movie.

I'm afraid Crash and a normal Spyro are lost causes, because Activision's got their claws on the IPs.

I can play Skylanders on the Wii U as well though, they're decent games, just not the kind of Spyro I'm looking for.



That just aint right, sir. Thaanks for sharing!



The fact that i don't already have one would make me buy one



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
