@JustPlainLucas I was thinking about that too. However, this time around, Sony seems to be desperate to avoid all the problems that plagued the initial months of the PS3 launch, such as dev unfriendly hardware, launching after the 360, very high launch price, bland online experience, and more. System shortage was one of the biggest problems at that time, so I think Sony will try pretty hard to avoid that as well.
@Coco_pierrot @tahsineo I know, that's why I'm angry. The fact that the fate of such an interesting and promising franchise is now being controlled by people whose only moto is "make more of what works and make it fast" is just sad.
Look, if you think you have the ability to churn out high quality yearly sequels for a realistic stealth action-adventure franchise that has made its name thanks to its complex story arcs, brilliant and fun gameplay, innovative action and stealth sequences and gameplay mechanics, stunning historically accurate locales and, let's not forget, for bringing something new to the 3rd person action-adventure genre, then you're just batshit insane.
ASSASSIN'S CREED IS NOT FIFA OR COD OR NFS! DON'T TREAT IT LIKE THOSE GAMES!
I really don't understand why they make these 'console vs PC graphics comparison' videos. We all know that the PC version will have the best graphics (It has to, because we're comparing a current generation PC to 5 year old consoles) while the graphics on the xbox 360 and PS3 will be more or less similar.
People who own gaming PCs will definitely play this (or any decently optimized multiplatform game) on their PCs because that's what they bought the expensive PC for. People who play most of their games on consoles are less likely to own cutting edge gaming PCs which usually means that they don't obsess too much about having the 'best graphics possible' and have a good idea of what they are 'missing out' on. There are very few dedicated console gamers who will actually consider getting a gaming PC after seeing a video like this and no hardcore PC gamer will ever think about buying a console after seeing a graphics comparison video.
I'm a PC gamer myself, yet I have to (sadly) admit that these videos are only made to stoke the egos of people with quad SLI setups.
@Scarshi I guess it means that you can stream PS4 games and media stored in your PS4 to the vita. If you need to watch an entire movie in your vita, you can just transfer it to the vita and shut down the PS4. And why would you stream PS4 games to your vita "all day and night?" You'll do this occasionally at best and the rest of the time you'll play your PS4 games on your PS4 and you vita games on your vita.
