Curious about the state of the PSN SCV community.

[Ishimaru Jinrai]

Fourth of all, did you really just cite Call of Duty: Ghosts as a reason to go after Xbox One on a Soul Calibur website? Really? That's funny when not even Call of Duty: Ghosts on Xbox One can run in 1080P.

LOL, that's the Native Resolution that the game is at default then it gets an upscale to whatever resolution your TV is. In my case, a 1080p TV.

Hell my PVR records it and replays it on widescreen 1080p, I have my CoD replays on my computer in 1080p. There's nothing to complain about, lol.

P.S. TitanFall (AKA Multiplayer-only Call of Duty) isn't going to save the Xbox One later on in the generation. Right now they actually have about the same amount of games, Xbox One just has more AAA experiences.

You're right, while Xbox One owners got games like Crimson Dragon, Killer Instinct, Lococycle, and Ryse Sons of Rome as exclusives, PS4 got KillZone and Squid Daddy... LMAO!!! And where Xbox One has Forza 5, PS4 got a delayed Drive Club. (Meaning Sony doesn't even have an exclusive racing game.)

By the time I reached the end of this thread, I didn't even remember what the topic was. Anyways, I don't have distinct memories of being annoyed by the community on PSN. My biggest issue was the online connection speed and stability. In my memory, about 1 in 5 games were ended because of instability. Just something I noticed; Namco seems to have something with Sony. Soulcalibur: Lost Swords is a PlayStation exclusive, and so is the next installment of Namco's Tales, which was previously multi-platform, so this might be something to consider. I personally bought a PlayStation 4 by the way, but that's just brand loyalty.

And Catgirl has yet again made the topic of the thread "Sony vs. Microsoft".

Why?

I'm still wondering how he hasn't been banned yet.

@AKNova7 It's best to not even get into these kinds of arguments with him, he purposefully goes through the forums trying to start and win arguments that don't matter in the slightest, let him have his opinion, no matter how dumb it may be.

Why?

It's alright, I'm having fun. We can update the topic title and move it if it needs to be moved, right? I feel like getting people's opinions on next-gen is a worthy topic as well.

And by that, I mean everyone else's, not CatGirl.

For me, it's the opposite. I've been an Xbox player for a long time, and I'm tired of missing out on games. Persona 5 going to PS3 was for me the straw that broke the camel's back. I knew it wasn't going to Xbox, but I simply couldn't miss out on another one when it was actually announced.

LOL, that's the Native Resolution...

Everyone knew that already. Up-scaling decreases quality, and shows your console can't handle next-generation resolution. Also, 720P is very last generation, what exactly does the Xbox One then give you in terms of being the next generation? Mandatory 49GB Pre-Play intalls? Native resolution is always better. All up-scaling means is anything the Xbox One can do, the PS4 can better in terms of playing games.

You're right, while Xbox ONe owners got Crimson Dragon as exclusives...

Dynasty Warriors 8, Knack, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Yakuza: Restoration, Infamous: Second Son. You were saying?

@AKNova7

I know that already, I heard about him, and I shouldn't be having so much fun with this. I can stop if we need to get back on topic, but I don't mind either way. I'm indulging him for fun at this point.

 

[Ishimaru Jinrai]

Dynasty Warriors 8, Knack, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Yakuza: Restoration, Infamous: Second Son. You were saying?

SPOILER! Infamous: Second Son isn't even out yet, so why are you listing that? Also, Dynasty Warriors 8 isn't even exclusive. Lol, XD

Also, Titan Fall, Call of Duty with Gundams! Sony owners tried to make a petition to get a PS4 port for the game. Then they just lied and said Respawn Entertainment was "paid off" by Microsoft for exclusivity. PS4 users then later made up myths that Titan Fall would come out for PS4 at an unknown date to feel better.

Same reason you listed TitanFall earlier which also isn't out? Nice try. Also, if DW8 isn't considered exclusive because it's exclusive on Next-Gen, neither is Titanfall (PC is a platform not named Xbox, you know.)

Also, they were paid for exclusivity.

We're not talking about PC gaming, we're talking about the games you can't play if you have a PS4, or an XB1, duh!

The amount of AAA grade exclusives games right now for the Xbox One is much more than PS4's. PS4 got a whole bunch of PC game ports, like Octodad for instance and PewdiePie was playing it back in August 2013. Sony got 5 month old, indie-tier PC games as "exclusives".

^ Despite that PS4 fans were still going around on forums bashing Xbox owners that PS4 will someday get Titan Fall. It's just whenever XB1 gets a leg up over Sony, the Sony-Ponies have to rush in and start flailing dung.

^ Day 1 PS4 release! Wait... look at the upload date.... xD

(Ok I'm done now. =])

You claim that it's always the Xbox One players who are the poor little victims, yet you are the one creating these "bashes" on the Xbox One by trying to do the exact same thing to the PS4.

Just like you can't play Dynasty Warriors 8 if you only have an Xbox One?

Sounds like a personal problem that has nothing to do with the facts I presented today. It more sounds like you have PTSD from dealing with other (read: Not on 8WayRun) PS4 players who, similar to you, appeared under-informed about their platform of choice, and begging to be corrected.

PS: Put YouTube Videos in quote tags. Taking up the entire screen is super rude. ><

Fact:

The Xbox One has probably been the most criticized and bashed console in the history of console releases. Youtube videos discussing XB1 hype would get bombarded endlessly by Sony trolls. Websites that showed features of XB1's new Kinect would get their chat log spammed by people chanting "F**K XBOX BUY A PS4!"

Do you remember the DRM bash days? Remember when it was cool to make topics calling Microsoft Money Soft, and posting little cartoon animations of Sony soliders blowing the heads off Xbox soliders?.... Do you remember any of that?

You could troll Sony for 100 years and you wouldn't come close to half of what the Sony trolls do... Just thought I'd point that out Mage on your attempt to site hypocrisy while ignoring a much bigger picture. =P

 

[Ishimaru Jinrai]

You don't need an Xbox One or a PS4 to play Dynasty Warriors 8, that's the point. You NEED an Xbox One to play games like Ryse (which is why I listed it).

You can play Dynasty Warriors 8 on Xbox360, you can't play Xbox One exclusives on PS3 or PS4. So why are you listing non-exclusive games in an "Exclusive game" list?

Can you play Crimson Dragon on PS3 or PS4? No. Exactly, because it's an exclusive it didn't come out for 360 or PS3... Hence, it's an Xbox One exclusive..... DUUUUR!!!!!

 

[AKNova7]

Snip.

Thought you had to go, nice little edit there.

Xbox One has more exclusives 5 months into the generation. Point? Xbox 360 was the same way, and we know who was consistently having more by the end of the generation, even with their unnecessarily difficult to program architecture present in the PS3.

...And now the PS4 is the one that's easier to program for.

Also, why isn't that helping Xbox One sales? They're still even at best with PS4.

1) Xbox360 and PS3 have both had numerous console exclusives, which were all good in their own regard.

2) Saying PS3 had better games towards the end of the gen is completely opinionated, not factual.

3) PS4's "new features" are features the Xbox360 already had since 2008.

4) PS4 and XB1 are both good consoles, just that the XB1 has more games, and a lot more features. Just that the XB1 is $100 more expensive than the PS4, hurts it more than anything the PS4 has to offer.

5) I own an Xbox One, you don't own a PS4. At least one of us has the money to support their developer.... =P

1) I never said anything about their quality. I personally love Lost Odyssey, so I can't say anything bad there.

2) I was referring to the quantity of exclusives later on in the Xbox 360's lifespan, or rather, how they received less and less exclusives as the generation went on. By 2011, they had Gears of War and Halo as, basically, their only standard (IE: Not developed as a Kinect Mini-Game) exclusive.

3) Native 1080P is a feature. Also, full game sound pass-through without Turtle-Beach headsets is a feature. Also, you're attempting to throw dirt on the PS4 vs the Xbox One for what the PS3 couldn't do, and that's not a politically correct argument. The PS4 isn't worse because the PS3 was.

4) More features is also arguable. I'd say the Xbox main advantage on features over the Xbox is Kinect, Skype, and App-Snapping. The last of which I barely even see the point with that horrible IE based browser, and Skype having the hilarious condition of being behind a pay-wall. Speaking of paywalls, TES: Online was confirmed to not require PS Plus, why does it require Xbox Live Gold? Go Moneysoft!

5) Actually, I've had the money for my PS4 set aside since September. I'm just playing through my backlog of games as I'd like to go into development myself. I am a PS Plus member and I don't even own a PS4, or Vita, but plan one of those, if not both. I have it because they have given more big game experiences on PS Plus.

You're quite right, actually.

 

[Ishimaru Jinrai]

Speaking of paywalls, TES: Online was confirmed to not require PS Plus, why does it require Xbox Live Gold? Go Moneysoft!

At least Microsoft isn't known for shutting down mutliple online game's servers randomly, unlike Sony:
http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/ne...ne-support-for-several-ps3-games-in-2014.html

Assuming Elder Scrolls: Online in 2018 you'll still be playing the game on Xbox One, while Sony PS4 has already shut down it's online servers! (Speculation of course, but Sony is known for this type of behavior. I'd rather pay a premium online price to Microsoft then deal with Sony's poor interfaces and random server closes.)

4) More features is also arguable. I'd say the Xbox main advantage on features over the Xbox is Kinect, Skype, and App-Snapping.

AND.... Augmented TV, Skype chat while gaming, Voice commands, free motion games (where as Sony has only like 1), free hand motion features integrated into games. (In BattleField 4, on Xbox One if you move side to side in your seat you actually duck behind cover, on PS4 you can't.) Xbox One also has the Quick-Game Swap feature.

It's pretty obvious Xbox has more features, and now Xbox is no longer region locked, meaning we can play Japanese games, which IMO was the biggest leg-up the PS3 had over the Xbox360. XB1 also got Dead Rising 3 as an exclusive, which also features free-motion Kinect integration.

3) Native 1080P is a feature.

It's all going to look the same on a digital HD PVR, it's all going to look the same on Youtube. It's going to look practically the same on a 1080p television, with very slightly better resolution. But then again, if we honestly did care THAT much about resolution, then we'd never have a reason to play a PS3 or Xbox360 game again... right? Unless, it doesn't matter and we just play the game because we like it.

2) I was referring to the quantity of exclusives later on in the Xbox 360's lifespan,

That's really a moot point because Xbox One currently has more than twice the exclusives that PS4 has. I mean if we're going by quantity alone, PS4's launch line-up was a failure then. If not for the 3rd party publishers, PS4 would have only had like 4 or 5 games to play!!!

(Also I'm done derailing this topic, I've already proved my points. >:] Hope you have FUN! Bye bye) xD

Yes but this "bashing"on this site has only ever occurred when you have began insisting that Xbox One is better and then someone has opposed your opinion. That is your biggest problem to be honest, you have no consideration for other players' opinions. If they want to "bash" the Xbox One, it's usually because you've started a conversation about the developer's income or Sony vs. Microsoft like you usually do.

I feel this thread has gone severely off topic.

Maybe if I let Catgirl rant in here for a bit longer he'll stop for a while.
