The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

The fact that I missed Ni No Kuni hurts man.
How did you miss it? It is still around.

For free on PlayStation Plus?!

No way would they make a teaser for Ultraviolet.

Hopefully it's SSM's new IP but why not wait for Gamescom.
 
I think it's all but confirmed to be a game and not a media streaming service, which the PS3 and PS4 already have plenty of.

I've read some speculation online like it being Guerilla Games 2nd PS4 project, which is rumoured to be a sci-fi RPG or a Jak and Ratchet crossover game. The only non-game announcement that would be big news would be full backwards compatibility. Especially after hearing that neither next generation system will have BC and GTA V just put out a gameplay trailer.

what happens to gaikai if the ps4 is fully bc.. can't be the announcement
 
Gaikai is supposed to do so much more than BC. I don't think full BC is the announcement, but that's just the only non-game announcement that would actually be good.

Gaikai's remote play and game streaming is much more interesting to me than BC. All the stuff Sony detailed at the reveal in February like being able to watch your friends game and even have them virtually pass the controller to you, letting you play their game on their console from your own console at home with your controller sounds really dope to me. Like if your friend in another country is stuck on a part and lets you play his game to get through it type of deal.

Confirmed to Insomniac and this also popped up.

Next Gen Ratchet and Clank vs Jak and Daxter???

EDIT: Just realised that the pic is from a PS3 :lol:
Now I'm hoping it's fake but it's definitely something from Insomniac so it could still be a next gen Ratchet.

I'm thinking that if the subtitle is Into the Nexus then this all just about the next generation Ratchet and Clank title. Worlds are probably literally colliding in the game, as opposed to everyone thinking that multiple game franchises will be crossing over.
 
Jak missed this generation entirely. If you think about it, Jak is a hero, and if he were to join Ratchet in a collision of worlds, he would be returning.

If it's a Jak and Ratchet game, Sony can just have my money right now.

That's two different studios though, right?  Insomniac and Naughty Dog, I think.

Seems unlikely.
 
^^ yea, I get that and all.  But it just seems like a logistical nightmare.  Do both studios work on it?  Does Naughty Dog sell the rights to use their IP to Insomniac?

And what would be the benefit.  Ratchet and Clank is already popular on its own.  And, last time I checked they were making a movie for it.

It would be nice for Jak, but I don't see the benefit for Insomniac to conflate their series with another.
 
PS4′s digital library lets you play your games anywhere & on anyone’s console


Speaking at Develop, Neil Brown, Sony’s R&D senior team leader, outlined the process that lets you access your games on other machines at other people’s houses:

“You can visit your friends house you can log into your account and play any game from your digital library, which is good. But how useful is that if it takes half a day to download the game you want to play? With Play As You Download you get much quicker access to at least the first section of the game so you can start playing quicker. So this makes a digital library a practical option in the real world.”

He also explained more about how the same system means you’ll never have to wait for games to install. Instead you can play instantly but still benefit from the faster loading and streaming from PS4′s hard drive thanks to more background processes:

“A similar system also works on Blu-ray, chunks are automatically copied to the hard drive in the background. This means that after the first few minutes your game can rely on having faster read speeds from the hard drive. Which provides a better experience for players, and this is a completely background process for the player. They don’t have to wait for anything to install before playing the game. The game will launch as soon as the disk has been put in the drive.”

Similar to the XBone family program that was canned I think.

It doesn't have to be Naughty Dog even though they created Jak and Daxter since Sony owns the IP.

Sucker Punch made Sly Cooper but Sanzaru made the latest one Sly Thieves in Time while Sucker Punch were working on inFAMOUS Second Son.
