Cube Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) What does everyone think will be available at launch? At the moment I think it's - Killzone - Knack - Watch_Dogs - Destiny - Diablo 3 - The Witness Obviously, a lot more will be shown at E3. I think inFamous will be out next March, rather than a launch title. Edited February 24, 2013 by Cube
Daft Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 I have a feeling Drive Club will be the at launch. Destiny is out 2014, I think.
Retro_Link Posted February 24, 2013 Author Posted February 24, 2013 I heard something about them wanting to release Destiny on December 31st or something... they don't want to go into next year or something. Seems random. Cube, do To you mean The Witness? Yeah Drive Club seems likely, get the racer there for launch. Be a shame not to have Infamous there, but you're right, it could be in the second wave of games; guess we'll see at E3 how far along it really is.
flameboy Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 I always install every 360 game that I get before playing it. Just makes sense really. Lesswear and tear on the console and faster/smoother loading. As for the failure rates, I had 2 RRODs, a Wii that stopped reading discs and a Wii U that needed repairing a month after launch. As the generation went on I kinda just accepted that machines are built as well as they used to be. Surprisingly I never had any failure issues with the PS3, despite a few people on here having them. I'm going to second that I think consoles just aren't built like they used to be. I had two Wii consoles fail on me within the first 2 months of launch, first just hung making a humming noise during games and needed plug pull to work second got disc read errors, PS3 got the yellow light and my original DS touchscreen just stopped working. I hope that regular PC components may somewhat help these issues as we are less likely to get design flaws from custom hardware.
Cube Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Cube, do To you mean The Witness? That's the one.
flameboy Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 We will definitely have a Ridge Racer game :P
Agent Gibbs Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 do you think the DS4 will work with ps3's when the ps4's launched? i'd like to box away unnecessary controllers, so all my ps3 ones could go in the loft and just have 1 playstation controller if it does
Ashley Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 I have a feeling Drive Club will be the at launch. Destiny is out 2014, I think. So, both at launch in Europe
dwarf Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 I'm trying to think of a release that would make me want to buy this thing on or soon after launch but I honestly don't know what I want anymore. Surprises for certain.
V. Amoleo Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 do you think the DS4 will work with ps3's when the ps4's launched? i'd like to box away unnecessary controllers, so all my ps3 ones could go in the loft and just have 1 playstation controller if it does I'd also like to know this. I'm guessing they're still using bluetooth so there's probably a chance.
Agent Gibbs Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I'd also like to know this. I'm guessing they're still using bluetooth so there's probably a chance. well thats what i thought, they are only bluetooth controllers so i'd hope they will, might email sony and see IF they'll answer....probably not but its worth a try
Debug Mode Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 We will definitely have a Ridge Racer game :P Nah, bring back Rage Racer.

I'm guessing they're still using bluetooth so there's probably a chance. DS3's wont work with PS4's so I doubt DS4's will work with PS3's. PS4 supports current-gen Move controller but not DualShock 3 It was probably too much to hope that we would be able to use our current PS3 gamepads with the new PS4 hardware, and it sure turned out to be. Polygon asked SCE Worldwide president Shuhei Yoshida if the PlayStation 4 would allow consumers to use their now-standard DualShock 3 controllers with it despite the DualShock 4 having a lot of additional functionality. He said: “No, [the PlayStation 4] doesn’t support DualShock 3 but it does support PS Move.” That is, you can keep the Move controller you picked up in that SOCOM 4 bundle on impulse, but you’ll only continue to get use out of the DualShock 3 if you keep using your PS3. And you should definitely keep your PS3 handy anyway. This isn’t terribly surprising, as a lot of or most new games will have functions you don’t have with the DualShock 3. That thing doesn’t have a touchpad or a “share” button, after all. Come on guys you lot too lazy to check on google?
Daft Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I quite like the design of this. I wonder if it hints at the direction the box will go.
bob Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Hmmm, not sure i'd want that on top of my TV. Looks like it was make out of Duplo...
Daft Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 It looks like the future...viewed from the 1960s.
bob Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 It looks like they are trying so very hard for it not to look like a Kinect.
flameboy Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I quite like the design of this. I wonder if it hints at the direction the box will go. Lots of press seem to think it's a place holder.
Cube Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 It has a kind of subtle look to it. I quite like it. Also, why do people get so worked up about the outside case?

Well it's something you have to put in full view, so you want it to look nice - or unassuming. You only like it because it's a bit......cubic.
Debug Mode Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 ..Some thing freaks me out about that camera. "Proceed" Though to normal people, they'll probably view the camera like this:
liger05 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Fergal Gara (PlayStation UK MD): Sony's stance on preowned "isn't clarified yet" #1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interesting answer during an interview with NowGamer as to whether PS4 will block preowned software: Sony's stance on second-hand games working on PlayStation 4 'isn't clarified just yet' admits Fergal Gara, Managing Director Of PlayStation UK. The admission came during our PS4 interview with Gara, when we asked that following confirmation that second-hand games won't be blocked on PS4 [source: EuroGamer], if Sony ever considered going down that route. "Well first of all, we haven’t stated that second-hand games… we haven’t made a statement on the second-hand games question," answered Gara. "There was a lot of reaction to a patent that was filed, which is a matter of course for a technology business like us, to file various patents at various times, many of which many never see any application but they are good to have depending on ideas that might be building." "So what we’re here to do is offer the best value and the best gaming experience for gamers," he continued. "The answer to the pre-owned question isn’t clarified just yet and we’re working through that and we’ll announce our position in more detail as and when we can." http://www.nowgamer.com/news/1825112...ified_yet.html If MS block used games I think Sony will as well.
Daft Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Conversely, Sony could be fucking with Microsoft by hinting that they'll go that way...and then not. It's pointless to speculate until we know one way or the other.
