Oh noes, Nintendo is doomed! I mean just look at those mad particle effects!! Haha, honestly, Nintendo fans obviously don't care about graphics. We care about a little thing called gameplay. That's why we're Nintendo gamers and not Sony gamers :P But seriously, Killzone 4 looks great but didn't even look that noticably better than PS3, let alone Wii U. I wasn't that impressed to be honest. I'll still buy a Wii U over PS4. but enjoy your $699 PS4. Hope those 8 gigs are worth it.. |
Hmm, a couple of things. Don't get me wrong though, ninjablade's comment was a dubious one at best.
A lot of Nintendo fans care about graphics, have you not noticed the "hey look at these superior visuals on the Wii U version" threads popping up? Need for Speed, black Ops 2, Arkham City and more have these threads and often more than once. Its simply not true that Nintendo fans never care about graphics, and they care a lot more now than before since they have a console that is technically superior to the PS3 and 360 at the moment (allthough I suspect that graphics will no longer matter to these people once the PS4 and nextbox are out). I know a little bit about your tastes but you hardly represent all Nintendo fans, like I said, there are a lot of Nintendo gamers that care about graphics (and certainly more than before now that the Wii U is out).
Also, no games on Sony consoles have great or even good gameplay? Then you're either extremely heavily biased or you haven't tried enough games. The PS1 and PS2 had a slew of fantastic games with great gameplay. Even the PS3, which has a poor overall offering (like the 360 and Wii, in my opinion) has some games with great gameplay. Valkyria Chronicles, Gran Turismo 5, the first inFamous and Little Big Planet, to name a few. Most games (as in more than 51%) on any console don't have very good gameplay, in fact; most games on most consoles aren't very good, period. This includes Nintendo consoles, the Wii has an impressive amount of truly pathetic efforts being passed off as games, same as any market leader.
I think what I'm trying to say is; its not as simple as Nintedo = great gameplay and Sony (and, I suspect, by extension in your eyes) MS = bad gameplay.
Killzone didn't blow me away, it looks rather much like every other shooter I've seen in the past five years or so. There is something to be said for technological advances and great hardware but I do think that most games on the PS4 will be generic setpieces with gloss and shine. And loud noises.
