| ListerOfSmeg said: They really put Sony to shame, Its not wonder Sony copies everything they do even resorting to making their new console look like a Chinese Wii clone knock off. It might fool some people into buying PS4 but when they get home and see they have to pay even more and wont get access to Nintendo quality games but Sony clones they will be very upset. Between my Wii U and PC I will have access to any game I want, especially when the PS4 emulator is out. Sony got lucky with the PS1 and PS2 due to the market wanting them there but since the release of the PS2 it has become clear their dominance was shear dumb luck and they will never repeat it. I look forward to the day they go 3rd party and that wont be long into this gen considering they've made less money than Sega as a console maker and Sega never dominated like Sony did. |
The PS1 was successful because it got exclusives be use it gave 3rd party developers 100% freedom to make any kind of game they want.
The PS2 was the successor and it was clear that games like Grand Theft Auto & Resident Evil & etc. were going to leave there beta-like games from PS1 and start being like the alphas they always were, but not be like an alpha for the first time in the PS2, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is one of my examples.
The PS3 was to hard to develop for so developers made games for the 360 and port them to the PS3 and decided to release on 360 as week since they had develop it on 360 Dev kit and production cost was a lot and who knows what other reasons. Plus the 360 was made by Microsoft to be a Death-trap to get console exclusive games to come to PC, and also to make it easy to port Xbox games to PC which is another area that the 360 came in on.
Anyways the only other system to give 3rd developers 100% freedom are these: PS1 & 3DS & Wii U. (2 of them are 8th Gen systems, haha)
Plus the 3DS does 160Mtriangle/s (PICA200) for its polygon count while the PS Vita only does 140Mtriangle/s for its polygon count. They both got 4-core 1 GHz CPU but the Vita has a AMD CPU...let's just say my Windows 7 has a AMD CPU and that's the only reason it CAN'T emulate DS games Literally, but if I had any other CPU in my Windows 7 then I could emulate DS games, which shows just how lousy AMD CPUs are.
Anyways the Wii U already has games like Wonderful 101 & ZombiU 1 & 2 & etc. because of Asymmetric Gaming, specifically "Single-Player-Asymmetrical-Gaming".
I'm curious to see how the 8th Gen Home Consoles play out seeing that the Wii U does HD and has the most interactive gaming capabilities. I guess Holiday 2013 & Holiday 2014 should tell us enough about the Home Consoles battling it out LOL.
