The statements made by you and Rubberwhistle made are absolutely correct. There was an absolute drought of quality software on both the Ps4 and Xone most of this year...with some good new games finally hitting this holiday. People needed something to play on their new systems and easy way for publishers to make a quick buck was to port games. At least with GTA V and the MCC collection they added content, new assets and the such. But games like Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, and the Last of Us were pretty much straight ports with the resolution bumped up. I also agree with these 8-bit indie games being compared with full releases is absurd. Games like Outlast, Resogun, and Child of Light are fantastic and deserve the praise they receive. But some of this crap that gets a pass because it's "Retro" is just ridiculous. And before I get called a fanboy, I do currently own all three of the next gen consoles and enjoy each one for different reasons. |
i really like how you put that. lol. it truly is plaguing this generation. i am a huge fan of video games, and i love the history of it and all that kind of stuff. i feel like if this generation keeps getting these remakes and cash grabs, there is going to be no character for this generation. this generation is shaping up to be a very lackluster one. i think the wii u is going to be looked at as a gem with crazy expensive games and i think a full amiibo collection is going to be looked at as a very coveted collection. i hope the ps4 and x1 can evolve a little bit more. i would hate to see them end up just being a continuation of the ps3, or a continuation of the 360. i want them to have their own personalities. so yeah. if you want to play 7th gen games, get a 7th gen console! we have never had this problem before.
