All I see is a desperate Sony shill crying like a pathetic entitled little girl.

I think you have over looked some things and it has lead you to the wrong conclusions.

You Said: With the Xbox One game launching this November 10th, the game is virtually unchallenged by any game in a similar genre

I Say : Same genre or not Fallout 4 is absolutely going to Destroy Tr and if that weren't enough there will be others games launching around this time that will give TR compitition as well.

You Said : When the PC version launches in the Spring of next year, its competition will be Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Stiff competition, absolutely, but for those gamers who want an archaeological-action fix but don’t want to drop a few hundred dollars on a console they don’t already have, Rise of the Tomb Raider may be the best option. In fact, Unchartedmay be pushing them to it.

I Say : to say UC4 Stiff Competition for TR is a HUGE understandment and Assumes way tooo much...Why... Because first Tr would have to be able to be considered on the same level as UC and frankly it's NOT therefore it can't be considered competition. The fact is UC4 will Annihilate TR even on the PC. PC gamers are all about preformance and they known that the Force is strong with Naughty dogs it is and they will choose UC4 OVER or Before choosing TR.

Also The fact that gamers NOW known TR IS coming to PS4 may be all the push the 360 console fence sitter need to pull the tricker and buy them a PS4 this holiday season, because not only will they get to play TR evenually they'll also get ot tear it up on the Nathan Drake Collection in 1080p and @ 60fps this year then play Uncharted 4 come spring and then play Tomb Raider come fall.

You Said: Of course, the game is slated to launch on PlayStation 4 nearly a full year after its Xbox release, typically making it a tricky proposition for a sale. Then again, next holiday season, there will be no Uncharted to compete with on the console, and it could mean that people who weren’t willing to buy an Xbox One (and those that aren’t really into PC gaming) may very well pick up a copy of the game next year.

I Say: You sir have under estimated how PISSED OFF the Playstation Nation is over this entire deal. I don't think people will pic up Tomb Raider Holiday 2016 1) Because TR will be an old ass game in a years time 2) Because they are like me NOT willing to reward Square for Screwing over thier fanbase. and 3) Because there will be tons of NEW games that are far more interesting then TR. Lastly 4) NO ONE wants to play a game that everyone else has played and done walkthroughs and videos for it will be " Like So Ten Mins Ago for TR"

You Said: However the release schedule plays out, Crystal Dynamics has done an excellent job spacing out the release of Lara Croft’s second adventure since rebooting the franchise.

I Say: Square Enic has cut their own throat with this betrayal of their PS fanbase and no amount of Mea Culpa is going to make it right. Tehy will regret this deal and think twice before pulling some shit like this again.

Hahahah, DX12. By now we've gathered it'll have minimal impact on the Shitbox. AR is a gimmick, they're half-assing VR, your monstrosity controller is a joke and no one cares about voice commands.

Shitbox Done, Billy. :)

Why not? BC is the only way they'll get a halfway decent game on the Shitbox Done.

Do I? Last I checked my PS3 still works.

Sony out of cash yet the PS4 has more exclusives this year. So much for that.

Edgy Raider 2 will be mediocre just like the reboot was.

Re: Nintendo’s big saviour: Pokémon amiibo cards

Peter Mei — Tue, 07 Jul 2015 11:25:34 -0000

Wow, this makes me wonder why I think Nintendo needs to pay attention to Pokemon. Pokemon and Amiibo cards can go together very nicely. Pokemon sounds like a good choice for Amiibo cards. Imagine a Poekmon Amiibo card like Zygarde used on a Nintendo 3DS Kalos Pokemon game (Not X/Y/OR/AS, a Kalos main series Pokemon games where Zygarde appears in). Having Amiibo used in the upcoming Kalos Pokemon man series game for Nintendo 3DS next year would be a good profit. Something that Pokemon X/Y/OR/AS did not have. Also, Nintendo needs to stop marketing repeats like Mario and pay more attention to big variety like Kirby. Especially the massive successful Pokemon. So I agree on that and great article. :)

That should be obvious? Who would want to buy a 3DS when they can the game on the Wii U?

Did not know the manufacturing cost for a 3DS, so thank you for that information; very interesting.

it allows devs more control in how they use the hardware so they can essentially code 'to the metal'. It does not however make a 720p or 900p console game become a 1080p one..

Microsoft just poured money into tomb raider to have something on there side an it's timed. The reboot of tomb raider sold better on ps3, an the definitive edition twice as better on ps4. Remember that game came out in spring when it had no competition. Now it's going up against battlefront cod black ops 3, halo 5, an fallout 4 even releasing the same day which is not smart.

Re: Original Xbox backward compatibility very possible on Xbox One

Zack — Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:00:21 -0000

That's the stupidest comment ever, Sony is out of cash lmao. They had the order 1886, bloodbourne, MLB the show, hell divers, planet side 2 finally released on ps4, until dawn, uncharted collection, no man's sky, soma, everybody gone to the rapture, then next year, street fighter 5, ratchet an clank, uncharted 4, the last guardian, hell blade, an other studios like sucker punch, quatum dream, Sony bend, an Santa Monica working on games. This whole console war is dumb an stupid. Both has great games an flaws an pros. I don't get why people don't get both.

I can't play my NES cartridges in my WiiU. Sony is not stopping you from playing your PS3 games in a PS3. They don't have the ability to make backwards compatibility work because the PS3 used a crazy different architecture. Now is a server side piece of infrastructure. Even if they wanted to give it to you for free, they couldn't because they have a lot of money tied up the cost of building and running those servers and the bandwidth to get the bits to the end user. Giving that away for free simply is not feasible.

As I said above... SONY IS NOT MAKING SHENMUE 3. It's an exclusive but they are not the publisher or developer. Shenmue being a Kickstarter has nothing to do with Sony and whether the game is successful or not will have nothing to do with Sony.

As far as money goes, Sony is not as strong as Microsoft but they are far from bankrupt. Most of what you hear about Sony's money woes is true. They are not as profitable as they would like across most of their electronics divisions. However, they also have other businesses that generate revenue. Their largest division is a life insurance company in Japan. What you hear about money woes is true BUT IRRELEVANT because those woes do not mean that the gaming division is underfunded.

You are taking small facts and generating incorrect statements.

It's a slap to the face because you have to repay for games you already own.
And you're either a company man at Sony's balls or an idiot for thinking otherwise.

Sony is out of cash they can barely afford a few AAA exclusives per year.
A kickstarter for Shenmue 3 ? Wow ... all time low standards.

Game is going to be fucked up and probably rushed through the door.
Microsoft would have poured enough money into it to make it an awesome game, just like they're doing for TR.

If Shenmue ends up being bull crap you'll have to thank Sony for being cheap.

Not only that, but writing a native x86 Original Xbox/Xbox One emulator, would mean that EVERY game from the original Xbox could work on Xbox One. The Xbox Originals emulator they used on the 360, only ever got 400 games converted to work on it, leaving many of the absolute best Xbox games unplayable. But a native x86 emulator, could conceivably play all 969 original Xbox titles.

Add that number to the full Xbox 360 library (1,163), plus the full XBLA library (720), plus the full XBLIG library (3,311), and you wind up with the largest library of games for a single console, in console history at 6,163 games.

I think it would be better to build a emulator on native xbox one for xboxog as it should be a much more simple emulator as your only going x86 to x86 the other way would be a nightmware to debug seeing your going x86 to PowerPC to x86 the question is rare grabbed by the ghoulies is in the rare pack is it running native xbox one code or is it running via a emulator

PSNow is overpriced. It's not a slap to the face. DOn't be a hyperbolic cry baby. They don't own and aren't producing Shenmue. They featured it but that does not mean they have anything to do with that decision. Nothing to offer? Morpheus? Something they built that works with their hardware. Hololens is cool but it's applications are greater to computing than gaming and Microsoft's VR strategy is stream to Windows 10 to Oculus. That will be $1500. Morpheus will be much cheaper.

Why do I say all of this? I'm not saying Sony will win. I think MS had a good showing at E3. However, Sony is far from dead and your assertions are asinine. Grow up and just be happy for gaming in general instead of trying to go around spouting this fanboyism.

I'm not too sure about that whole resolution part because dx12 isn't going to magically up xbox ones resolutions, it doesn't work like that.

Psnow is the biggest slap to the face of gamer's, that and Sony needing a Kickstarter for a "potential" exclusive. Now Sony doesn't even have resolution on there side esp once devs use dx12. PS4 has nothing to offer. MS has AR/VR, better online,elite controller,cortona,W10,etc.

I think you just proved you're the biggest douchebag. I have both systems and went to PS4 because not because I consider it a better system, but the xbox community acts like you, a bunch of upset immature kids whining and blaming at every opportunity they get.
