Re: PS4

Wow, it seems to me that I'm the only pessimist here. The thing that slightly impressed me was the new Playstation Network stuff however everything else was… OK? I wasn't jumping out of my seat praising anything nor was I actually interested in any of it.

The line up of games is fairly weak (with the exception of (Watch Dogs, The Witness, and The Witcher 3), I think, and there seems to just be the basic line up of racers, shooters, etc. Nothing fresh or exciting is (besides a 3 or 4 games are) “hittin' the scene”, I think. And what the ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** is up with Final Fantasy, seriously?! I'd like to play Final Fantasy XIII-2 or whatever but I can't fathom at how this series won't die already.

Killzone looked… boring? Maybe it's because Far Cry evolved the shooter genre for me but Killzone looked fairly weak and if I didn't know any better, I would've thought it to be Black Ops III. I appreciate the fact that it seems to possibly be more of an urban battlefield approach, I guess, instead of being on a crazy warzone. From what I had interpreted from (what seems to me more of a tech demo) that I like is how it seems there could be a sort of “terrorist” attack going on, if that makes sense? I'd much rather be involved in high level “terrorist” attacks and such than watching a bunch of soldiers being blown up or shot in some deserted city.

And the PS4 no backwards compatibility makes me quote the greatest man of all time, Pvt. Hudson, from Aliens:

“That's it man, game over man, game over! What the ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do?”

Also, with no pricing, release (apart from a half-assed “Holiday…”), and not even a glimpse at what it could possibly look like, I'm not sold a bit.
