Ouch, those global reviews!

Hardware reviews, software reviews, game reviews.. not looking great for the PS4 review wise? When are the next batch of games gonna be out? a week/month/next year? But we want them already!!!

I know, I know, its a launch and they are always... blah blah.. so basically they couldn't work out how to not make it a crap launch.. they couldn't learn the lessons from previous launches.. excuses excuses...

lol

Yea, a crap launch...

http://www.ign.com/games/reviews?platformSlug=ps4&sortBy=score&abthid=5283b2aae2ccb52b79000014

All those Editor Choice Awards, AAAs and AAs... total doom for the PS4 launch.

According to that other forum... the launch is perfect, the games are as good as expected, Knack was misunderstood, the media are bias/corrupt/shills... and the PS4 wobble is a design feature made for viral videos.

Sigh.

LMAO Cows don't like Gamespot scores, they resort to metacritics, when metacritic scores suck to they use IGN. Cows are pathetic, and if multiplats and a few indies are all you have then the PS4 launch is truly a disaster.

Yup. Sony decided to keep quiet so cows and fanboys would buy in before its tool late to back out. Now you either buy a pos4 or you wait since everything will be sold out. No games, lack of features, slow ui, and more? No thanks.

Sorry, I was referring to the "GLOBAL REVIEWS" in the thread title.

Not Gamespot-only reviews.

And I'm not a cow. I'm a 360/PC/PS4 gamer at the moment.

So Resogun AAE

Killzone AE

and Knack definitely down down there.

That's going off GS

Edit: Flower AAE

Edit 2: Sound Shapes AAA

Games are games, whether or not they are multiplat or "indie".

Shitty launch. Big surprise. It was the same for Wii U for the most part. I doubt Xbone will fare much better. Though, that is no excuse for making mediocre games, it still needs to be noted that the PS4's library isn't just confined to what comes out this year, and same thing with the Xbone.

You don't ever judge consoles on launches, and yet that is what everyone is doing.

I'm still get the PS4 and I got 6 games coming to play on it. :D

Those aren't global reviews, those are IGN reviews

Generally you either use Gamespot or scores off of metacritics,

Multiplats, Indie games, The PS4 is still a disaster.

actually the reviews for the ps4 is positive just the line up that's pretty much bad and we all know what polygon site are like microsofts monkeys and Sono microsofts lineup aint that much better either forza KL DR and Ryse that's it atleast with ps4 least we have a lot more games to download and play that's free unlike what u have on the x1

I let you guess how bad X1 games are if MS needs to hide them behind embargo.

@Netherscourge: "And I'm not a cow. I'm a 360/PC/PS4 gamer at the moment."

Yeah me too. Just disappointed that for once, they didnt come out fighting and blow us all away... you know that could have been a possibility right? They could have done that.. they have experience in poor launches.. they could have learnt and really gone for it.

Anyway.. only having a little fun :) I am with @jman1553 and wont be judging for awhile as the games will get better and better.. I just wont be buying just yet :)

Wonder Woman is surprised.

"I didn't think the ps4 would really cause this much envy. Interesting."

I don't understand how multiplats don't count when they are the highest-selling games on both Next-Gen consoles and all current-gen consoles...

Neither the XB1 OR the PS4 would survive without multiplats.

Seriously.. people need to stop covering up their eyes when it comes to multi-plats. Games like AC, GTA, etc... sell these systems.(Although Killzone does have amazingly high pre-sale numbers)

Because then the 360 had games for the past 1-3 years.

PS4 games were "hiding behind embargo" too until today. The PS4 launches a week earlier, so wait until next week before saying dumb shit like that.

ITT:

Lems celebrating launch software not being AAAA

claim some sort of victory after months of atrocity from their system.

This.

So, what's wrong with that?

I've been playing GTA5 on the 360 since it launched. It's awesome. Why does that not count as a AAA game for the Xbox 360?

It's probably the BEST game the 360 ever had to be honest. In fact, I think the best games on the Xbox 360 and the PS3 are all multiplats, with a couple exclusives thrown in there too.

Are we seriously going to pretend the PS4 has 3 launch games and the XB1 has 4 launch games when the best games for both consoles will most likely be multiplats at launch?

Multiplats, ports and Indies don't count?

This makes no sense. They all give the consoles more value.

That's what happens here, 360 had no games since 2010? Abandoned console, yada yada, don't know where you've been hiding.

It's quite possible the x1 games will fare a lot better. People were already expecting a lot more from the PS4 than what it can offer so now that they let the steam out of the hood they'll be more opened up to new ideas even if they run at 20frps.

Explain.

LMAO You're a complete joke, the game was hyped AA status, of course cows were too afraid to hype it AAA despite being the premiere game on the PS4, Killzone has always been a B rated shooter. Now it fails to even reach the level of it's predecessors and you're talking it being an AAAA?

Knack, Shadowflop, an atrocious UI and software issues, even during the live stream on Twitch they couldn't get the voice commands to work, and they even said the multitasking by double tapping the home button was a bunch of crap, the only leg you bovines have to stand on is this 1080p fiasco, your entire launch is a disaster

Agreed, a racing game that's been consistently AAA for almost 9 years has to be so bad that MS is purposely hiding it's reviews, same with a fighting game that fighting game enthusiast like Maximilian and Acidglow have had mostly positive things to say about. I can guarantee you that both Forza and KI will outscore Knack and Shadowflop.

GS would have us believe it's a lot worse.

But launches aren't ever amazing. I'm going to be perfectly satisfied with the games available.

It seems a few sites are reviewing the next gen hardware, thats all. You know, the new features etc.. http://www.polygon.com/a/ps4-review

yeah BF4/Ass Creed/CoD certainly was hiding. Hiding so much that they actually reviewed them the day they came out. Where is BF4's x1 multiplayer gameplay breh? Game came out TWO WEEKS ago lol

im not talking about exclusives... why would they review F5 when it comes out on the 22nd? Im talking about the multiplats that MS is hiding while all other versions are reviewed. They're doing it so ppl who preordered and purchase the system have no choice but play sloppiest next gen ports cuz that's all there is on their system they've bought. If there was no embargo and everyone sees how poorly it fares against ps4 i bet there would be a lot of cancellations and its not what MS wants.

You said XB1 games, if you didn't want to include exclusives you should of specified multiplats. If the only argument you have is that the PS4 versions of multiplats would look better, even though the PS4 version of Ghost has performance issues and the XB1 version of BF4 looks better, you basically no other leg to stand on. The PS4 launch is a disaster.

@danabo: oh shit pre-order cancelled. buying that five hundred dollars 720p entertainment system.

Good for you!

Wobblewobble.

@SonofK: BF4 looks better in 720p LOL.

Enjoy those degraded textures and particle effects, it'll go good with the laggy PSN servers. Looks like Failzone Shadowflop is going to have some company xD

hahaha

Isn't that the same as cows celebrating pre launch bugs and problems with XOne games? Can cows BE anymore hypocritical?

These mediocre reviews fill me with glee!

Want to know what's a joke? The fact that Microsoft had to roll up first party development for essentially a year and a half to prepare for the shiny new toy. All you have to show for yourself this year is a B-Team Gears game and a B-Team Halo game and THAT IS IT.

Now, you wanna come talking that good shit about PS4s launch as if anyone could possibly care what an MS cheerleader has to say about games at all. JOKES galore up in here!

Using the PS3 to damage control the PS4's failure of a lineup, awesome.
