Forums - Gaming Discussion - Metacritic Games 2015: PS4 is the number 1

The_BlackHeart__ on 01 August 2015

@Snoopy - What is all the fuzz about my friend, even if we decided not to count games that are available in other platforms and remasters.

The PS4 beats every other console in the market in games released in 2015. Because lets be honest the XB1 has not received a single exclusive after Sunset Overdrive.

Edit: It also beats PC in games scored 90 or above. But for the 75 and above category PC is king.

"Nope, PSNow (ps3/ps4 streaming) doesn't count. You still require a ps3 to play those games. Like saying a good chunk of ps4 games is part of vita library or xbox one games now available for pc and vice versa. You still need the other gaming system in some form or way." 

My arugument above.

And yes, you do need a ps3 in some form or way to play psnow games. You are basically renting a ps3 with psnow. 

LOL. Ok, I guess people who play PSNow on PC, Laptops, Blu-ray, TVs and phones will need a PS3 without even 'owning' a PS3.



 

The PS5 Exists.

OK, tell sony to get rid of all those custom ps3s that are running the games and let me know how psnow works for you and yes, you still require a ps3 to play psnow games. Because again, you're basically renting a ps3 with psnow. And I never said you need to own a ps3. I just said " You still require a ps3 to play those games" which is true.

last comment: You do not need to 'own' (OWN, POSSESS, PURCHASE) a PS3 to play PSNow. Fact.

What guy, the guy who is factually right? If so, yes I want to be "THAT guy". By the way, "require" doesn't mean own, it means need for a specific purpose which is true. You need the ps3 from psnow backend to play ps3 games.

Yeah...nope. For one,  PSNow uses motherboards that house 8 modified PS3 type systems each, but they aren't PS3s. Secondly, you aren't renting the sytem itself. You don't have access to anything but the software that's being streamed to you. That would be like saying you are using an N64 because you are playing Super Mario 64 on your PC using an emulator.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Fact: you do Not need a PS3 to play PS Now. You need a device that runs or will eventually run the PS Now App. PS4, PS3, PS TV. Samsung smart TV. You are renting a cloud based games streaming service. Similarly you don't need a PS3 to run Netflix. Netflix is covered by other devices as well. Hence it's an app.
