Same here. The PS3 sticks were super annoying because of that.

Let's start the rumors.

What two games do you expect them to release each month for the PS4?

One of the things I love most about Plus is that, even though I only have a PS3 right now, I can "buy" PS4 free games (Plus), and have them available whenever I get a PS4.

Probably safe to call this "rumor" an actual "thing".

Project Beast...rumored by From Software in collaboration with Sony Japan...rumored PS4 exclusive.

Busy busy busy month for me...

I got both PS3 and PS4 Playstation Now Beta keys. My overall opinion? It's awesome! The games stream quite nicely, nothing to install, game saves are in the cloud, it's like grabbing a movie from Netflix. On my wireless networked PS3, there were some imagine distortions from time to time (this is intolerable for gaming). However, on the wired networked PS4, didn't encounter such thing (yet). I've finished Papo & Yo using PS Now Beta, 100% mind you (quite enjoyable game). The game selection is not so great, but hey, they're all free! And yes, trophies are unlocked when you play, it's full games by rental period. And oh, you can't stream the games using Vita, I've tried remote control the PS4 with the Vita, it won't launch the PS Now Beta app...

That's awesome! I was (and am) pretty skeptical about the bandwidth and lag, but stuff like this makes me more hopeful.

I'd imagine the lag would be too high for remote play between PS Now -> PS4 -> PS Vita

Didn't get a code, despite being the biggest fanboy in the world...or something.

re: The PlayStation 4 / PS4 Thread: Still Going Strong

You know what? There's really one and only one previous gen game I want to have a remastered, next gen version of and that's Gran Turismo 6. That was a game a lot of people avoided because it came out after the PS4 and it's a huge game that could really use a graphical polish. I hope that one actually happens.
Really there's no significant reason to remake TLoU as it sold really well on PS3 and looked pretty amazing as it is.

Uncharted on PS4 has “Stupidly Impressive Tricks and Tech,” Is “Breathtaking,” – Rumor

http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/05/...ng-to-insider/

Industry insiders have been dropping a few hints about what we’re probably going to see at E3 of the new Uncharted on PS4, and today Ahsan “Thuway” Rasheed dropped a bit more information from his sources:


Uncharted PS4 visuals will make you say, “Quantum/Order/Division who?” Stupidly impressive tricks and tech.

Uncharted preview is being described as breathtaking. I don’t know about any more Sony megatons- but the word the last word I got is: The 1st Party stuff is seriously impressive. Whenever it’s shown, it will make people take notice.

I tried pressing for more info, nothing there. Also no new info on MS’s megatons. Looks like leaks are sealed. See you guys next Monday.

Oh and before you ask, no I haven’t heard about any SECRET PS4 titles or GG’s game showing up. The only one I knew was Castlevania Souls.

I'm happy to see recent releases like Tomb Raider and TLoU and PC ports that didn't come out so great on PS3 or didn't come at all like Metro. Other remakes/re-releases I want:

Fallout 3/New Vegas
Oblivion/Skyrim
GTA V
Orange Box, or at least downloadable Portal and TF2

And unrealistically:

Battlefield Bad Company 2 Multiplayer

Can't you use the PS4 controller, wired, on the PS3 for TLoU?

Pretty sure you can, but I anticipated the PS4 release and rented on PS3, soooo....

It really is hard to go back to the PS3 controller.

Far Cry 3 needs to be re-released on both current gen consoles. The 360 version ran about 1 fps faster than the PS3 version. (something like 22 vs 23 fps)

http://www.eurogamer.net/videos/far-...mparison-video - this was made to show off image quality, but even in it you can see the lack of fluidity.

Yeah, I'd agree. I wouldn't buy it again, but it performed pretty badly on my 360.

A combo Saints Row 3 & 4 would be nice as well

Not Far Cry 2, you don't.

I DL the free SR3 on Xbox Live but honestly...after playing Infamous and Wolfenstein...playing SR3 was like playing a Nintendo 8 bit system....I just couldn't do it.

Stick with it. SR3 is freaking awesome. Got it on PS+ about a year ago and did just about everything possible in it.

One of the many reasons why I opted for the PS4 over the XO despite being with Xbox since the first XBox was some of the highly touted games on the PS3 "might" come over later to the PS4.

Never played Infamous but thought it looked cool and fun. Played Second Son and had a blast. I'm really looking forward to The Last of Us. Don't know much about Uncharted series except it's one of the most highly rated series on the PS3. I checked some videos and got the impression of a Raiders of the Lost Ark, Tomb Raider and bit of Max Payne thrown in.The surroundings and locations hould make this game shine on the PS4. Add this to the list...

The first Uncharted is closer to Gears of War than Tomb Raider. Uncharted 2 was narratively fantastic but the game play suffered (too much hand holding and leading you down specific corridors). Three had the weaker story but was more fun, IMO because it was a better balance between story/gameplay.

Over at Dual Shockers there is a new Sony E3 teaser video released by someone called DemonNite who those who know of him say he is a Developer inside Sony. He also let it be known there is a "Easter Egg" inside the video which included a code of sorts thats been cracked. If you don't catch the Easter Egg or the hidden code then ead below the video....

Gears of War?

Anyway, I love the 3 Uncharted games. I even played the first one twice, the second one for the trophies... I know. But the second one is my favorite. It could be shorter, felt like a long finale, but it had really great action scenes, and comedy. The third one, as I said, I also liked it, but it was more of the same. Paid $60 and have no worries.
