@Pedro: If those Xbox games looked good or interesting people would be hyped for them too. Regardless of what you think of The Last Guardian people know it exists and are anxious for the reviews tomorrow so they can buy it or get to hate on it.

Dead Rising 4 on the other hand releases the same day and no one gives a damn. Speaks volumes.

Any PlayStation just had a great show yesterday and continues in an hour with a panel for Horizon Zero Dawn. I have slipped and let myself get dragged to deep into the negativity of this forum again. Time to leave this place again for a while. My time is better spent discussing games with people that can do it in a mostly constructive way.

@dynamitecop: You said PS4 has no MP games. It may not have exclusive MP games(neither does Xbox outside of Halo), but it does have all the popular MP games people actually care about. I'm glad Sony isn't wasting resources MP focused games. That is why I don't like Xbox exclusives. They are smart to let 3rd parties handle that and stick to creating unique experiences in-house. That strategy seems to be working quite well.

You know exactly what I meant, you're always rambling on about unique experiences and exclusives, and for PlayStation 4 in the multiplayer department it's completely devoid of anything meaningful.

Any multiplayer experience that is good on the PlayStation 4 you can get on the Xbox One. You also don't see the double think in the pandering of PlayStation providing better single player experiences than Xbox yet you completely disregard the reality that Xbox provides much better multiplayer experiences than PlayStation.

Your whole thought process contradicts itself.

Please refer to No Man's Sky for the relevance of hype.

Maybe if it was an actual game, not a fucking movie simulator, the last one was boring enough for me, stopped playing after the black boy turned into a zombie... so boring and anything but entertaining. Seriously, I am better off watching an actual movie.

I doubt you even played TLOU lol.

Actually I did, dummy. Don't got the game anymore, but you can see a picture of my old lame ass ps3 instead. Yes. the game sucks, its a boring movie simulator and there are far more games on the market than that pile of crap.

@tormentos: Glad you took the time to write all of that. I may read it sometime in the future.

Thank you playing. Hope it did wear out the rest of your thump. LMAO.

If you wish real hard maybe TLOU 2 will suck.. hahahaa

Na having it inside your ass already wear it off too much.. :)

@Pedro said:

@StrongBlackVine: That's your list for 2017? The only good thing about that list is that I can save power since for the coming year because that list is abysmal. Must have taken a lot of time trying to find something to play and that's all assuming it's being released on time. Don't worry, Sony would feed you trailers to keep the tag line strong. "Greatness Awaits"

So what does the xbox one has next year that is not going to be also in superior form and online free on PC.?

We wait while you compose a list..hahahahaha

@cainetao11: yep... You hit it right on the head. TLOU is an ET of the video game world and it ended beautifully... A timeless experience that both exhibited the talent of the developer and the potential of gameplay marrying cinematic storytelling beautifully.

I'm not going to knock naughty dog/Sony for revisiting their game. They can do what they want, but it should be known that somewhere down the line a choice was made to invest another few years into a sequel to a game that didn't need one because it would be instantly profitable as opposed to giving us the next great Naughty Dog game and that kinda stinks if you ask me.

I'm not condemning tlou2. I wish them well in filling the shoes of the first game. Ill most likely play it. Im just never going to advocate for more of the same in this hobby, especially when it was so unnecessary based on the brilliance of the first game.

Watching the trailer already made the ending of the first game feel less poignant. That's not a gamble I would take with art.

Cant agree with you more, my friend. TLOU is a great, seminal piece of work that I even got my brother to invest some time with. He hasn't played games since the Genesis era. But he was watching me play it a bit and was so engrossed in the opening that I said, "Jim, really, just give it a try". Anytime he comes over he wants to pick up where he left off.

I think I've made it well known I buy stocks in these companies so I understand. You have an IP that is guaranteed to sell at least 3 million copies on name alone. It would be foolish business to NOT make this sequel. But as an older guy that remembers when things were left alone because they remained timeless that way, it hurts.

I mean, imagine a sequel to A Streetcar Named Desire. LOL

Pretty much. Cows in here left and right claiming "XB1 just got rekt!", over a mediocre game that likely won't be released for almost 2 years. I get that cows have been running short on good news lately, but it must be REALLY bad if they're claiming ownage for this. lol

Must hard being a lem with no promising games on the Horizon. PS4 has a stacked 2017. Hell come Tuesday The Last Guardian is releasing. Did you know that Dead Rising 4 releases Tuesday as well...and NO ONE CARES!!

Are you in touch with reality?

It took ME, a lem to make a Hype thread for TLG for God's sake. You cows wouldn't ante up, but now its what's important? You wouldn't even make a call for the GS score in the hype thread!!!!

I have the CE preordered so I'm definitely in...

I predict mid 80s on Metacritic. No prediction for this site.

FFXV and TLG will both exceed expectations.

I felt so angry and disappointed and indignant when I heard the news. The original game was already at maximum perfection, and anymore of that story will simply degrade it. Last of Us was way ahead of other games and a sequel (which is most likely intended to produce more money, using the original game's fame) will dorp the game to the level of other games.

We also have Neil on record saying that "they were 50-50" about making a sequel, but an unconfirmed image of Ellie with her guitar was leaked a long time ago. Which means that he's lying, they have never been exploring other possible story lines and such and it has never been 50-50 and they have not started working on this just recently; the sequel has been in development for a long time.

@lawlessx: And he talked a bunch of crap about Nier Automata being exclusive. Then he claimed he wasn't bothered it would be on PC. Now, there is a strong indication an X1 version is in the works.

Then he'll claim the deal for Rise of TR was the worst of the worst but the SF5 deal was completely legit. Guy flat out lives in a fantasy land.

I don't understand the leap that leads to those strong conclusions from the data available. The fact that they ultimately went with a sequel and had concept art with her and a guitar doesn't in any way indicate they didn't consider other games, or other ways to go with the story. 50-50 means this was a possibility they were mulling over - which the evidence you brought up supports. That's it.

I think it's pretty clear that Street Fighter V bombing on the PlayStation 4 has made Capcom reassess their exclusivity deals, hell Dead Rising 3 on Xbox One outsold SFV on PlayStation 4 by a margin of over 465,000 units.

Dead Rising 3 (XBO): 1,645,000

@cainetao11: Well because RotTR was complete shit, ms moneyhatted that and turned it into a timed exclusive. It was a game that was going to happen without MS money.

SFV wasn't happening without outside intervention, and sony stepped up and FUNDED the game. A lot like Sunset Overdrive on the Xone.

If you can't see the difference the fanboy is strong with you.

“Right now we have a relationship with Square and Crystal on publishing the game,” Spencer confirmed. “The exact details of what publishing means and when it gets done are part of that deal - I’m not trying to be opaque about it. We will clearly spend money on marketing the game, there’s no doubt about that. And we do [that] on games where we have very little to do with development, and with games that we fully develop. And we will definitely be spending money on developing the game - I want to make sure that it’s as great as it can be.” http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2014/08/13/xboxs-phil-spencer-responds-tomb-raider-exclusivity-questions

They paid for part of the development. You were saying about fanboy? LOL

I loved the first one but good damn Sony, stop releasing CGI trailers for games eons before release. Can't stand CGI trailers. Then threads pop up like "tlou2 is here!" When really we didn't see a single thing about it and everything can change before release.

C'mon it's no big deal, obviously i meant the reveal ...or maybe it gives the impression of "availability of the game" or sth ? i'm not sure about that , if so, then lemme know ....overall, i was going with "reveal"

@mjorh: that's the thing.. Mass Effect 3 was the culmination of years if speculating and hype... Its not easy to deliver on story driven content in this medium... Now, I'm not comparing the writing, characters and story directly, but more their place in their respective form of entertainment, if we had an ET 2 or a shawshank redemption 2? For every "empire strikes back" there are a dozen "sandlot 2's".

The bottom line is its their property to groom. I hope they blow our minds. My perspective is that of, "why would this talented developer not take us to something new and fresh and allow their standalone game which was incredible become a classic? How much money do you need?

i'm in line with you, the game didn't need a sequel at all ... They'll garner way more sells with a sequel than an IP tho, so there's that ... companies' priority has always been about business and we can't really blame them

In the PSX panel interview earlier, Yoshida himself admitted and apologized how they are notorious for showing games so early in development and not including the delays, it takes years and years for them to actually release. If the Sony man himself already admitted how notorious they are in showing games too damn early and releasing so damn late, why can't their fans accept the facts in hand. This is not just 2 or 3 games, he admitted in showing the entire PlayStation library a tad too early and they continued to do so until some of the journalist finally called them out on it. Especially Sony fanboy Greg Miller or his friends during the PSX panel. But since Sony finally admitted the fault maybe now it could be corrected in time.

It's wrong and there's no justification for it, and fanboys will never admit anything against them otherwise they wouldn't be fanboys lol

@cainetao11: Lol, yeah they developed the game and then let it be sold on their main competitors console bwahahahahaha, its pretty clear what happened. MS did the same thing with EA over Titanfall, only that was enough money to get full exclusivity.

They paid for part of the development, it's not their game, this is pretty simple.

Also wrong, Respawn and EA approached Microsoft because they had exhausted their development funds and Sony ignored them, the game would not exist without Microsoft, Titanfall 2 would not exist without Microsoft.

Cause I have no use for it, its just a kids toy, nothing more. If I want play some real games I usually stick to my pc.

I'm going to ask you as a PC gamer myself who also plays games on consoles, what makes games on PC 'real' as opposed to the ones on console? What about multiplats? Is the same game more real on PC than on other platforms?

This should be interesting. I'm just curious to see exactly how much of a dickhead you're willing to make yourself look on here.

@dynamitecop: You're so wrong it's painful, respawn had no idea of the moneyhat MS sneakily gave EA for the exclusive rights. Google it, Forbes has an article on it. I would post it but I'm on my phone and don't know how.

Be gone.

While Microsoft was aggressive at approaching Respawn for Titanfall early on, Sony was pushing them away when they approached. The message Sony sent to Respawn was that they were not ready to talk about it, although they did have ideas, such as bringing the game to the Vita. There was a point where they had told Sony that the situation would be ‘locked in behind the scenes’, but Sony once again did not respond.

At a certain point, Respawn (Zampella and West at this point) explained to EA’s John Riccitiello that they had run out of funding. They had just enough staff to bring the game to Xbox One and PC, and even then they had to delay the game and cut single player. EA did the work of shuffling around for funding, and finally found it in Microsoft. As a result, Titanfall became a Microsoft exclusive.

It needs to be emphasized here that at the final hour, it was Microsoft that saved the project. We also know that since then, EA and Respawn plan to open up future Titanfall games to more platforms. If Microsoft had not stepped up to the plate, though, the game would have not even been made.

Oh please that was a load of horse shit and damage control Respawn signed with EA before Titanfall was even unveil.

The true about why the game ended on xbox one and PC is already known.

In the case of Titanfall, Electronic Arts thought that the game should be exclusive to the Xbox consoles (and PC) based on their forecasts of where they thought the Xbox One would be come March.

Gamezone managed to get in a word with EA's Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen, who stated that...

"I think you should assume that we made that decision when it was back a few years ago when we decided to go exclusive,"
"We had some forecast at that time from where we thought both Xbox and PlayStation would be and that's what we based our decision on. I think we're still feeling very comfortable with that,"

Jorgensen is talking about how the Xbox 360 appeared to have more momentum than the PS3 throughout the seventh gen, and it seemed like the Xbox One would follow suit. He's also talking about EA's forecast that put cumulative sales at 10 million between the Xbox One and PS4 sales... a measure that they think can be reached by March of this year.

The thing is, EA was heavily in bed with Microsoft for the Xbox One... not just cuddling and spooning, but they were getting it on thick like Kim Kardashian and Ray-J in that nasty sex tape... just the way EA likes it.

It was EA who first announced cancellation of the Online Pass program, after they announced exclusive deals with Microsoft during the Xbox One's May 21st reveal. The reason for the cancellation of the Online Pass was because – at the time, before all the Fast & Furious 180s – Microsoft had a used game fee in place for publishers to utilize.

In theory, this would have given Electronic Arts some massive leverage in terms of revenue from a game like Titanfall because any copy being put back into the wild would still net EA a small chunk of change from the used game fee(s). Designing the game around that kind of culture for the Xbox One probably looked like a gold mine for EA and Titanfall would have been the testbed for mining the gold.

MS and EA were in bed that is what happen,it wasn't only for titanfall they would do other deals that would have benefit EA greatly,the decision to have Titanfall on xbox one was based on the fact that EA believe that MS would dominate sony this gen based on the performance of the PS3,they thought MS would have sold more units which is why MS was able to money hat EA and convince it about it,fact is if the game would have being on PS4 as well the PS4 version would have probably outsold the xbox one version without much problem but EA sold out.

Is the same reason why now you see Battlefield deal for the xbox while sony has COD.

This is 2+ years old news by now B4X educate yourself,no one believe that shit about sony saying no,fact is before Titanfall was even on development EA made a deal with respawn as simple as that,and MS made a deal with EA.

Much like Sony got content for Destiny before MS did even that the game was done by Bungie,activision was in charge and they close a deal with sony.

A sequel? Wasn't the first one boring enough already? I stopped playing the last of us on ps3 after the black kid died, because I got soo bored, too many cutscenes and don't get me started on the brain dead ai. If I play a game, I want to play an actual game, not watch a fucking movie game.

Oh please, pretty much the whole gaming world was expecting a sequel. Spare me.

By the whole gaming world you mean mostly playstation fanboys...

Not really. The game was a critical and financial success.
