Forums - Gaming - Sony – our competitors “are losing the plot” with gamers

Wow. What's up with the thread? Did kowenicki hacked into all of your accounts?

It's like Sony suddenly joined Hitler, Apple and Call of Duty in the list of acceptable targets. Shame on you VGC.

Only had a laptop and mine craft lagged badly on it. Laptop then died a few months back and never replaced it.

I then played it on my phone and loved it so much that I built a giant home inside a volcano. However I screwed up and lava leaked in.

I want to play it with better controls but don't feel like buying a new PC yet.

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Someone got their Kantie Panties in a twist.



Tease.

Gotcha. A valid point. Most of the needs are met by tablets now.

that's just false. That is ONE of the things they focus on but not the only thing. well what would you know :P you don't even know or play sony games

Wow MUGEN, never thought I would here that stupid statement coming from you. 

My brother owns a PS3, I've played several games on it, Uncharted included.


well then I never imagined you lie or be stupid enough to actually believe what you said. Uncharted is mainly about gfx? give me a break. And you can't judge a whole library by few games

and listen this is something that I notice with a lot of ninty fans including you, you guys jump around in joy about good graphics (omfg zelda hd lookz amazinnnnng) but that is only until the competition comes up with something better, then it's meh who cares about graphics anyways

fact of the matter is sony exclusive line ups include great gameplay, great graphics etc. It's not a deal of one or the other. Have you played journey? Heavy Rain? UC3? (both sp and mp) infamous? R&C? If you think gameplay doesn't set these apart then you are just deluding yourself to the same extent you thought talking for 30mins and showing games you knew about for the other 15 was great for an additional conference!

yes it is. look in 500 uncharted threads and of 10k posts 5k are only about the graphics. surely not about the more as simple gameplay which is a weak point of uncharted. all i thought playing uncharted 2 the first time was "omfg that looks so nice" and i did never think about the gamplay because the graphics flashed me so and this is what you read all the time "omg the graphics". i did not so much read "wow that great aiming" lol


wait what does that suppose to mean? Graphics is one of the strongest point of that game because that franchise is the best looking franchise on consoles this generation. Of course there will be a lot of discussion about it. The graphics really add to the atmosphere as well because as much as it's a TPS, it's also an adventure game.

Simple gameplay? Unless you play on a easier difficulty level or something I can not see how UC gameplay is 'simpler' than any TPS in the market? Heck the multiplayer has no equal in the ways you can play it.The vertical gameplay and use of elements like water is just not matched. It also has many unique features not found in other mp games anywhere.

Stop being silly, just because you were impressed by the graphics, doesn't mean that's all the game is about. If not we will not hear the end of how amazing Crysis is.

Not sure what the issue with aiming is here? What exactly is the problem? I'm guessing you think there's an issue and hence the 'lol' at the end. Tell me. what is it? what else is 'weak' exactly? I want to hear specifics

it means that a lot of uncharted is about graphics. yes the game is fun and the music is awesome (i believe i gave uncharted 2 95%) but it seems like 90% of people who love uncharted only love it because of the graphics. have you ever seen aldro or so posting about uncharted? it's all only about "here i have 100 new pics with the graphics". just put average graphics in uncharted and you would see how many fans it would have after that. a game like god of war or halo would have many fans without graphics (halo did not even have awesome graphics in the past) but i really don't see that for uncharted.

i did not very often see someone posting a uncharted video to show the great gameplay.

i'm not silly, i just say what i experinced over the last years when people were talking about uncharted.

and aiming is bad if you played gears of war a lot as example. that's what i mean with aiming.


i enjoy uncharted not because of the graphics but because of how diverse the gameplay is ( and by that i mean the ability to climb, swing etc ) which is why after i beat the campaigns for 2 and 3 i've played the multiplayer portions for months and months

in fact i'd even go as far as saying that if i didn't enjoy myself during the multiplayer beta for uncharted 2 as much as i did i may never have bought it

if in your opinion the main reason uncharted is enjoyable is because of its graphics well thats cool but there's no reason to extrapolate that to include anyone else that enjoys it

in terms of gears i'd definitely agree that the shooting is more precise ( because uncharted has recoil on the guns ) ,but the gameplay to me is not as diverse imo as uncharted

Yeah, but the touch controls aren't good enough. If I can grab a360 for around $50 bucks I would get it just for the game.

Kinda makes me wish I never sold mine.

Am I the only one enjoys uncharted only for how well it tells the story? Lol

From an E3 perspective, the OP makes sense - Sony delivered a presentation based on gaming, Nintendo's was a mix of gaming and social features and Microsoft's was mostly other 'features' with a bit of gaming in there.

And to be honest, this is just the Sony way of doing things. They've pretty much always insulted the competition at every single opportunity they've had - doesn't make them right, but at least it makes them consistent.

I like that Sony deliver such a diverse gaming experience. Neither of the other consoles offer the same mix of gaming experiences that Sony do - Microsoft and Nintendo both seem to excel in certain areas, while Sony do very well in nearly ever area. As a gamer, that's a much better deal for me. For Sony as a company, it's looking more and more like it's not going to be a viable situation to sustain, which I'm pretty disappointed about. But you can't have everything!



Wow this thread went to hell fast, Euphoria you still alive buddy?

As for the Uncharted graphics comments, yes I actually agree on VGC the fans here would not shut up about graphics and same is true with my friends, however it is very impressive game with awesome story and platforming.

Really the smart individuals on this site will cover more than just oooooooooooh pretty comments. CGI for example focuses both on graphics and storytelling when it comes to gameplay. Euphoria, and Carl will mostly focus on gameplay and story from what I can remember. I know I left out a bunch of Sony fans, but large majority do fit this stereotype notion of caring too much about graphics and sony does very much cater towards them.....a certain Xbox 360 fan also fits the category.

(I know Carl and Euphoria or even CGI aren't Sony only fans, but they come to mind right now.)


I personally put Storytelling and Gameplay (and both Sony and Nintendo suit me fine with these two category) above anything.

Edit: Now to read it once over to see if I conveyed what I meant. 



 

Even Sony was losing touch with gamers the past few years. They were pushing 3D SO HARD but no one cared...
This year at E3 they didn't even mention it. Looks like they finally get the message. "We don't care about 3D"

For a pure gamer, PS3 is definitely receiving the best support in terms of new IP and those multiplats.

360 has it beat in multi-media and digital though.(Minecraft is already at 2million sold)
