The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

Red Dead comes out in a few weeks who is excited?

I'm def HYPED. Got a PS4 for this game and my ps3 backlog was so backed up I just played the first game last year, so the story is pretty frsh in my mind.
It blows me away that some of the stuff that was GTA V was actually in RDR first, like the whole random encounters.

been seeing on twitter dudes getting their systems bricked by this spam message going around. set ur settings to message from friends only or no messages for a while....just getting the message will brick it.

Bo4 feels too arcade to me. Back to BF4

I haven’t tried regular multiplayer on black ops yet, Battle Royale has killed that experience for me.

 

[jrp44]

Still getting used to Blackout mode, but it's really fun

 

[stay lurkin]

Black Ops is reall good. Zombies is dope.

You weren’t on yesterday. I was gonna run with you.

Paging Hybridsolider:

Is it really this bad in the video game industry:

Was it that bad at Square Enix or other places you have worked at. Is it better now that you are working at Naughty Dog ?

I'm not Hybrid, but I can tell you from firsthand experience that it definitely gets crazy during crunch. It's rough. Burnout is pretty much guaranteed. I remember not seeing my girlfriend(now wife) awake for a good week or two because of the hours.

I’ll play it but is not going to be anything revolutionary for me.

You know this before playing the game?

Hopped on for like 30 minutes before bed. We will run soon.

I think I know myself well enough to know what I like and don’t like

It seems these AAA game developers are ready for next gen. PS5/Xbox whatever consoles too....................look at the PS4 file size for RDR2

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/red-dead-redemption-2-file-size-revealed/1100-6462541/?ftag=GSS-05-10aab8d&utm_campaign=trueAnthem:+Trending+Content&utm_content=5bc506de04d3014965ad85f7&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=facebook

Red Dead Redemption 2 is big and bright, deep in the heart of Texas. Following an apparent look at the game size for PS4 Pro, the full file size on Xbox One has been revealed as well. The "Additional Information" section on the Microsoft Store lists its approximate size at 88.57 GB.

Weighing in at nearly 90 gigs puts it close to the leak from the PS4 Pro Bundle, which suggested it would be 105 GB. It's possible that the disparity can be chalked up to the Pro version downloading some extra textures, and that it would be similarly sized on Xbox One X.

These game devs/publishers don't give a **** about optimizing for consoles anymore...........you either need a 1TB/2TB HDD to have this game alongside more games in your console's back log OR hell nah.

You know damn well the PS5 will prolly have 1.5TB HDDs at the start of launch now after seeing how these AAA game devs. are with the file sizes of these games

I have been thoroughly enjoying the new Assassins Creed.

 

[Ricky D]

I’ve been enjoying Dragon Quest XI. Grinding turn based battles can be so addicting. I’ve probably spent 3-4 hours just running around the map fighting different enemies.

bigjny88 I think they look at disk storage as being 'cheap' in the overall grand scheme and you can't really do too much to optimize storage space save for compression. Compression in turn will lead to lower image quality, lossy soundtracks, etc...

AAA game developers been ready for next gen. These consoles been holding them back.

That’s old school

Yup and it's been reported Microsoft on the next box will offer a streaming only option similar to the steam box. No disc option.

 

[Ricky D]

I ain’t messing with a streaming only console. I keep a disc or two just in case the internet starts trippin’

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

 

[Ricky D]

That’s old school

It’s the JRPG that I’ve played in a while where I just want to play through and take my time with it. Normally I look up where I’m at in a game or look for missable quests but i just been playing it casually and enjoying it a lot.

 

[Deleted member 37467]

I think I know myself well enough to know what I like and don’t like

I mean, if you don’t like the game, why play it?

Doesn’t make much sense to me.

 

[bossplaya]

The last time Microsoft was talking about doing this their was outrage from everyone.. I'll be shocked if they go through with that

 

[bigjny88]

The "steam box" option is literally just that.......an option.

It is said Microsoft's "Next Box Scarlet" was going to have 2 versions of the console........the legit console itself AND the rumored steam box version.

So next gen. Xbox ain't gonna abandon console hardware that easily for "Steamware Consoles"
