@codec7: I'm waiting for Sony to show more of their plans for the near future. Right now xbox is showing us what they are doing and where they are going with their console.

I try to picture myself with a ps4 and that controller in my hands after being with xbox and it doesn't seem right, like a downgrade.

Sony probably thinks they don't need to state their plans, i think they're banking on the PS4 hardware doing the talking, meaning the graphical superiority of the games compared to the same games on X1.

I can confirm you are right about the PS4 controller, it is a downgrade compared to the X1 controller; my hands start aching within half an hour of using it, so the PS4 controller design in general is very inadequate; Sony definitely got the design wrong. Bigger hands do not fit properly with the PS4 controller, and the battery-time is shockingly bad. Sony should be ashamed of themselves for overlooking such basic an obvious things as hand comfort and battery-time on their controller.

@sleepnsurf: Are you jealous because you didn't bother to do a good deed yourself or take the time to make such a list? I put-in the time an effort and you made no effort, so who needs to get a life?

I'm glad you're passionate about the PS4 and it's games but there is a recommendation thread stickied at the top of this board :)

Yes, but our lists have different intentions. Your list is for games that have already been released, my list is for games that are in development or will be released in the near future.

Also, my list contains what i personally deem AAA PS4 titles that will be worth buying, but the large majority on your list i did not buy because i didn't deem them AAA titles or to my taste. I appreciate your recommendation thread, but my list serves another purpose. Anyone that is not sure of the complete list of titles available soon for PS4 (and only the good ones) will probably find my list very handy; there is not a single website that has my full list in one place. Cheers. Happy gaming.

Yeah, we can keep hoping for PS5, hopefully Sony won't bring-out another dud, but i'll be buying Microsoft next time anyway. Sony screwed-up with the PS4.

Let me just say that i'm an avid gamer. Spec-wise the PS4 was a major disappointment; I know it, Gamespot knows it, Sony knows it, and 90% of PS4 owners know it. It should have been much better than what Sony gave us. The CPU and GPU in the PS4 are 4 years old already, but they called it next gen LOL. Here we are 2 years later and the graphics are still not next gen. And Sony removed Audio CD playback capability, dumb move on Sony's part, i'll never buy a Sony console ever again..

PS: AAA games on the list are in no particular order, cheers.

TOP-TIER PS4 GAMES TO BUY:

1: Lego Dimensions

2: Earthlock: Festival Of magic

3: Tembo The Badass Elephant

OTHER GAMES TO CONSIDER:

1: Dragon Quest Heroes

Based on all of the videos that I've watched regarding this game, I will definitely play it. I did enjoy "The Evil Within" and if "Until Dawn" is anything like it, I assume that I will enjoy this, as well.

+1. Yes

Anyway, the preview videos look good to me, and i'm usually a game snob, but it looks like some thought has gone into this game. Developers these days can't diss us anymore because reviews will strike it down if they don't have careful level-design, and also if it doesn't get good reviews they will lose by second-hand sales which will guarantee it's demise. This game seems to have a type of claustrophobic and in your face type vibe, which i like. As long as they get the action elements right and do the game from their heart it should turn-out ok from what i'm seeing so far, i'm hoping it will.

I'm not a troll! Just a concerned gamer, i'm your fellow gamer. Me and you both have a common interest, gaming &amp it; true or false? But i am disappointed with the falsely called next gen consoles. This world is too politically correct these days, and it's people like you that go around calling people trolls, and people like you are the ones perpetuating this modern zeitgheist of political correctness. Anyone who has their own opinion is falsely labeled and demonized. Dissenters change tbe world, you ought to keep that in mind. Sheep take what they're given. Have you ever heard of "LIVE, AND LET LIVE"?? Someone is not a troll just because they have their own ideas and feelings about something. You are too loose with the term "troll". I could teach people like you a few lessons on philosophy and correct thinking, but sheep are hard to teach... and anyway, you're throwing that term "troll" around like rain, most probably as usual because you're jealous and don't respect anyone who disagrees with you or thinks for himself. I 'paid' for the PS4 didn't I? Well then, I have a right to my opinion about it. Get over it!

Sony could have done better. The Jaguar CPU in the PS4 is less powerful than the HD4600 Intel chip integrated into their CPUs. The bog standard lame graphics chip that Intel provides inside the main CPU has 20 compute units, the PS4 GPU only has 18. The XBOX ONE only has 12. This is a disaster. Sony or any company push profit margins too far, they should stop doing that, we want performance. The GPU in the PS4 is already 4 years old, disgusting. The games on my smartphone are showing better graphics than the PS4, shame on Sony! Actually, you and Sony are the troll!

Maybe the "Steam" consoles will offer better graphics than this garbage. The "Steam" consoles have the latest hardware.

BTW, Sony in a recent interview admitted that the world is not yet ready to accept streaming/downloading only, so the PS5 console is a definite, but after that the next consoles will be streaming devices. Sony will have a mega supercomputer at their end sending everything in real-time to our TVs while we use the controller.

Well good! By the looks of it all we need is a slightly more capable GPU and some added SDRAM for good measure on-chip, then double the GDDR5 memory to 16gig and Sony will be able to give us 4K at 60fps easily and for a low price. Surely they could have done that this time around and we would have been smokin hot already for true next-gen, and for not much extra dollars... Arrgghhhh, stuff you Sony and MicrosoftQ!!

@nyadc: This nonsense you posted shows you have no idea what you're talking about. Sony is paying $74 wholesale for the current 8gig ram in the PS4. That means $296 if they were to put-in 64gig of it. And because 64gig would constitute a bulk-buy of sorts, then Sony would probably only end-up paying $275; but then in 3 years time when the PS5 comes out, the price for 64gig GDDR5 will have dropped to roughly $199 wholesale. So we see that you are too hasty in your comments and not thinking properly before you reply. Now remember, 3 years from now all the components will be much cheaper so then add $75 for 4gig auxiliary SDRAM and we have $275 for all the ram. Then $180 for the GPU and $150 for the CPU and we're at $605. Add $250 for the SSD and $150 for everything else and we're at the $999 mark. Totally doable! Do your sums. We can buy a Panasonic or LG Blu-Ray player today for $50... Capiche?? Such a player involves ram, cpu, gpu, motherboard, powersupply, optical-drive, chassis blah blah... we only pay $50 and yet both the retailer and manufacturer still make a profit... DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW??? The profit margins on things are HUGE. The manufacturer buys bulk components and cheap as chips, dig me? Forget your faulty brainwashed thinking, you're a sheep, use your brain! There is no reason why in 3 years time when hardware components have reduced significantly again in price that we can't have a full-blown PS5 for $999. Wake-up!
