This post is pretty sad. He addresses the quality of the games and your response is graphics? I hope this is a joke.


So why are you buying a new console? there are tons of better games gameplay-wise in last gen you and me havent probably played yet. If we talk about the next gen first 3 years its about graphics what matters the most. He questioned why people buy ps4s and i gave the answer


I bought a new console because of the games and my friends. Graphics are fine but that's not what I bought an 8th gen console for.

Anyone else amused that "gamingtrend" scored the game the highest while currently "digital trends" put out the lowest review score for The Order? I'm confused which trend to follow.

Being real here: Given PS4's defining AAA titles (no ports) so far (Killzone SF, Infamous, Drive Club, LBP 3, and now The Order), I simply don't see PS4's hardware sales as being truly justified. Is it merely riding off the positive brand image of PS3 in the last few years because it certainly isn't selling for the system-defining exclusives imo.

To sound fair and not trolling, this is like 360 hardware sales from the dreaded period of 2011-2013, when 1st party exclusives all but dried up, save for Forza/Gears/Halo, yet 360 still sold at a very decent pace.


PS4 exclusives look better than anything Xbox 1 and PC have in this generation its a fact, i think its very justified since thats why people buy n ewconsoles to get the graphics-update

Better then PC? You should reevaluate that sentence. Also, poly-counts for most Xbox 1/PS4 titles are nearly the same, its the framerate/resolution differences that stick out.

But even going by that logic, you are telling me that system-defining games take a back seat and are merely the icing on the cake to a console with better specs? That you are fine with hyping up pretty games with little substance until the REAL quality exclusives come along? K. 


Yes ps4 exclusive so far even look better than pc-games on maxed out settings, you cant deny that by looking at the games. Only crysis 1 maybe looks better if you know what mods you have to install but then again i said this generation not the 7th-gen. And its a fact that pc has no tripple A exclusives anymore but is soley relying on multiplats based on the console versions.

Now by saying that i am not in any way saying that ps4 is stronger than the strongest pcs but the ps4 exclusives arent avaible on pc and therefor the ps4 has the best looking games who would probably run better on pc with higher frame-rate etc, but of course there are not avaible on pc in the first place.

And yes people buy new consoles to have better graphics in the first years thats how its always has been, if gameplay is more important for you then its better to stick to last gen as it has tons of good games still left who come out or good games you and me havent even played yet.

 



Damn another flop for the PS4. I was hoping this would not have been the case, sick of waiting for next gen awesomeness.



Oh well, another terribly reviewed game that everyone who plays it will probably like. Now every nerd on the internet will trash the game undeservedly for a good amount of time and consider it worthless when it's ever brought up. Shame. *cries*

PC has games that are running on max setting in 4K and at 60fps. How is an (essentially) tech demo with black bars technologically or graphically impressive? Not saying that the PS4 has horrible graphics, but saying that the PS4 has better graphics than high-end PC is just flat out wrong.

How is it a flop when we don't even know the sales?!



 

                          

 

Median review score at present is 70. That suggests the very low scores (especially that 2/10 outlier) is having an undue influence on the meta score. A 70 median is pretty good all things considered. I think that means I can take the risk and buy this game, not at full price, but not at bargain bin price either.

ok, before the user reviews go up i predict the userscore being higher than the criticscore after a few weeks. kinda like beyond two souls. anyone in for that?

You'll have to wait until next gen.
