Forums - Sony - The Current Problem With The PS4

The problem I am having is that the USB ports are broken and both controllers are unsynced. Infamous is also on route but I can't play it until I get a replacement PS4. Balls.

infamous just released yesterday. geez.

you didn;t read anything


no no. i read the start, then when he complain about lack of triple AAA ecxlusives i stoped reading. Killzone and infamous are released. there is Battlefield, Call of Duty, Fifa, Assassins Creed, NBA, Thief, final fantasy 14, madden and need for speed. so in 4 months he has all those to play. did he? there is no lack of AAA games on PS4. is just that we all love to get giddy and hyped for exclusives to release every few weeks, when reality is nobody has the time to play all the games on the system. 

Apparently third party games don't count as games! They fall in the same category as indies ^^

Sad but true.  I love Sony's exclusives, but my most wanted games will be a new Fallout or elder Scrolls game, Witcher 3, Dragon Age Inquisition, and a Souls game for PS4 (keeping fingers crossed for PS4 port of Dark Souls II because I'm holding off for this possibility).

I agree that the PS4 has a lack of AAA exclusives. Other than Drive Club (the jury is still out if this'll be a AAA racer) and The Order: 1886, there are no other PS4 AAA exclusives that have been announced thus far. I'm sure we'll see more at E3, but the whole "Sony has more and better exclusives" argument just isn't stacking up for 2014 as of today. Eventually we'll get a new GoW / Uncharted / GT etc, but it looks like those are all slated for 2015 and beyond at this point.


It didnt stack up on the first years of the PS3 aswell. Yet, look at things now.

Are we making argument for right here, right now? Or what is a sensible long term expectation for the whole generation? If you make a hasty decision you might end up with a disappointing system down the line. I know thats what happened to me with the 360. First 2 years wonderful... following ones, a disappointment.



Pretty much every console in history has had a threadbare library just a few months into its life; early sales of most systems are generally propelled more by hype than by software.
Like somebody once said, "people will buy it even if there are no games."

I can't I'm surprised, thankfully though I didn't have to suffer through this kind of drought, since I didn't get my PS2 until 2002, and a PS3 until 2008.



Follow the games, not the hype.



And that's why I never buy consoles at launch, or even within their first year for that matter.

Well the cross gen games he may have already played on PS3/360.

The biggest issue with PS4 right now is lack of games, or at least lack of games that I'm personally interested in. The fact that you have to pay for PSN just to play games online is also a sticking point for me.

Even if I had the $$$$ to buy a $400 new console right now, I wouldn't, because there is nothing on it, or anything that I'm aware coming to it anytime soon, that I want. I have never been into Uncharted, or Infamous, or God of War, etc., so aside from the fact that I suppose Resogun looks kind of neat, there really isn't anything for me. Now it's too bad Crimson Dragon weren't a PS4 exclusive instead of an Xbone one, because I love Panzer Dragoon, and that would be one game I'd want, but obviously that is not the case.

It would take several games I actually want to make me eventually buy a PS4 when it drops significantly in price. Meaning, for one, it'd be nice if The Last Guardian would EVER fucking come out at all. I was super pissed/sad that it never came out as a PS3 title, because I waited literally years for that game, being a big fan of Shadow of the Colossus. IF they ever bother making an Elder Scrolls VI, and don't go the WoW route with that franchise, I imagine it would be on PS4, and so that might also be a game I'd want. ESO looks interesting enough, at least the prospect of being able to go to various different lands is enticing, however, paying a monthly fee to play the fucking thing online, on TOP of paying Sony a monthly PSN fee just to play ANYTHING online, doesn't sit well with me at all. In fact I'd call that highway robbery.

I would also be very interested in seeing Silicon Studio do another game like 3D Dot Game Heroes, not another Zelda clone, but another retro-styled game with those same time of graphics. Then again, they could easily do that on Wii U, BUT if that type of game were PS4 exclusive, it'd be on my list. Same goes for anything new from Vanillaware that might be PS4 exclusive.


But outside of that, I have no plans of getting a PS4 for the next 2-3 years, at least, if ever. I'm perfectly happy with my Wii U, in all honesty, even if it were to be the case that all I wind up getting from it are some good Nintendo games and a bunch of cool indie titles.....frankly I'd be good with that.
