i don't have a problem with indie on ps4 because ps4 had a lot of AAA games but on Vita i hate them



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

"My mummy didnt buy me a ps4 to play indian games!"



the rating of AAA based on budget is stupid. when I read AAA I think good game not expensive as that does not always equal good games.

Indie games are a good thing



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

95% (if not more) of indie games are nothing more than 1-2 hour long mediocre fests with no replayability whatsoever.

I think people have a right to be pissed if they have laid out £350 for a ps4, and the only thing they currently have to play on it are indie games. (taking in to account infamous can be platinumed in 10 hours & Killzone was a flop)



Never bought an indie game and may never buy one. I just haven't seen any that caught my interest. However, I recognize that they work for some, just not for me. I do reconcile with the idea that one doesn't buy a ps4 to play indies though they may fill a void. Problem is that void is massive at the moment which is why people are frustrated.

I think my biggest problem with ps4 is ultimately the lack of BC. I got a PS3 in the launch window too and while the "no games" situation was probably even worse, I didn't even notice because I was too busy playing ps2 late bloomers and even ps1 games. PS3 can't play anything but ps3 games so when there are no ps3 games incoming, it's just a dust collector.

Man, do you actually play indies? Limbo, Braid, Journey, Machinarium...? If you call THAT mediocre then you probably have a bad taste for games. No, really.
We can understand that they want more triple-As on PS4 because that's what everyone wants. But less indies are not equal more AAA.

AAAs need a really long time to develop, and Sony spend last years doing a lot of great games for PS3, that's why there are few on PS4 for now. But the future is bright and these complaints will cease to exist.

Prob the most ignorant post I've seen in awhile.

 

Infamous and KZ are the only games on PS4 now? X1 gamers must be mad as they don;t even have many indies to play, and less AA, what AAA exclusive has Ms had since TF? Ps4 has the best sports gameof the last 8 years, the best MMO, TLOU next week. People don't only play exclusives ona  console, ps4 has third party support, ehich happens to be the biggest driver in the industry.

 

How was KZ a flop? it has outsold the "Game fo the gen" titanfall on x1.

 

The best game of 2014 is a 100 hour RPG called divinity original sin, it's indie.

 



I'd rather buy a Nes, Snes, Genesis/Mega Drive than ride in this Indy train.
I mean all they do is 2D platformer that mimics old games with a different skin.
I'm all for originality not wrap-an-old-sh**-in-a-shiny-coat-and-call-it-fresh.
A handful of them are really good games but most of them are a cash grab, capitalizing on Indy craze.

Anyway he's right about the fact that the majority of indie game are not intersting ( i'm talking about the whole indie world : flash games, etc.. )
