A lot of those games look like what was mentioned at e3. I wish they would have given us a list at the conference of what games will be out the same time as the console launch.
 
Nice article that Gamasutra put up and was somehow missed.

http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/...n_Sonys_DRM_policies_No_more_online_pass.phpl

It's about the DRM stuff and online passes.

We've already come right out and said we're not going to allow online pass. And the word "allow" is key there. Specifically with online, with PS+ requiring a charge to play online, we would not want any publisher [to charge.]

In general, we're all businesses. Sony or Microsoft is never going to be able to tell EA or Activision exactly what they can do. What we like to say at PlayStation is that we set the precedent. The way we are approaching this is that we want this to be extremely consumer-friendly, extremely retailer-friendly, and extremely publisher-friendly. My personal opinion is that it's hard for me to believe that any major publisher is going to put an extra set of used DRM onto game titles because that wouldn't put them in a good spot, right?

Referring to the reception to the news at the press conference last night, Rohde said, "In a way it's a little bit sad in that what we've been doing all along gets such a big cheer."

"That's just something that we've always wanted to do," says Rohde. "It's not a plan that changed based on what Microsoft has been saying over the past month or two. It's just, 'Oh, I guess we should emphasize this now,' because it's a serious point of advantage for us. So let's have a little fun with it, basically."

pretty sure kh3 is coming to ps3 too. the box art during the conference showed ps3 i thought.

The one thing that I noticed about KH3's video, which I assume was made from in-game footage or using the game's engine and models (in-game cinematics), was that the game really didn't look that good. Even for a game that didn't appear to have much graphical fidelity, it still had quite a bit of aliasing that was really hard to overlook. I would expect games using models that don't require tons of polygons to be able to enable AA for cleaner lines.

I noticed the same. The visuals were alright but to me it looked like another fps. What bothers me is a lot of the games will also be available for ps3 lol

All the videos I found are of low quality to begin with. Very hard to tell. It'll probably be on PS4 though because I don't see it coming for years still.

KH3...FPS?!?!?

It's not an FPS game...

Yeah they may be off. Maybe gamestop will have a more accurate list. For myself, I'm not looking for exclusives just something to have besides watch dogs. Knack looked nice and fun..I want to see more footage of bf4 and batman too before deciding.

I believe those lists were just games that will be available for ps4 but probably not throughout this year or even 2014. I can't really find any different.

Would you not buy BF4 for the PC? You have a nice rig in your sig.

BTW: Is there a player count for PS4 BF4 yet? My friend has been asking me all week cause he can't find it. How many players can it do? Should have no problem doing 64 right?

ill get it for both. i didn't get BF3 for the PC because none of my friends have gaming PCs

actually im pretty sure some of them don't even have PCs at all

Yeah, I just think with such a good PC that could run the game at a higher fidelity and potentially more players on the map at once (i can't find any info about this). It should be a better experience on PC. Although I bet flying and vehicles is more streamlined on console. Had a heck of a time making a controller actually work for the jets and choppers in BF3 on PC.

I hear that Xbone is being released in only 21 countries. How many countries is PS4 being released in this year?
Click to expand...

Actual countries. PS4 is NA/Euro and they might possibly delay the launch in Asia depending if they can keep up with demand in the countries it is released in already, but it will be delayed a bit regardless.

X1, NA and some Euro countries I think

I tweeted the BF account yesterday prior to their E3 event, and they stated that PC, XBone, and PS4 will all support 64 player MP this time. However, 360 and PS3 will still be limited to 24 player MP.

I would imagine that the PC is still going to have the best visual experience again, but other than lacking 64 person MP on the 360 the only issue I had with it was draw distance, it got pretty bad beyond 500M in game but visually I thought it was done pretty well on 360.
