This is by far the worst Playstation console, why do people keep defending it?
>>
Switch has only one game and everything on xbone can be played better on PC
>>
>>389943741
Because it is among the 2 best to ever exist.
>>
>>389943741
As underwhelming as the PS4 is, the competition is even worse. This gen-and-a-half is the Special Olympics.
>>
>>389943741
How is it worse than ps3 and that whole shitty gen
>>
>>389945352
the PS3 had more games
>>
>>389945405
>PS3 had the no games meme
>now the PS4 has no games

You guys need to think of something better.
>>
i stopped buying consoles when they started requiring subscriptions to use them

i wont even buy these second-hand, they are worthless, like a second-hand copy of an mmo disc with a one-time-only code, its useless and tainted

sony couldve done the cool thing and left microsoft being the lemon that charged for using internet that you already pay for, but they were greedy (surprise) and fucked console gaming forever
>>
>>389945491
But the PS4 really does have no games.
At least the PS3 had some good games that actually made the console worth buying.
>>
>>389945491
what I mean is the PS3 had more games in comparison to the PS4, the PS2 and PS1 were obviously better

the PS brand gets worse each gen
>>
>>389944659
If you honestly believe the PS4 is a better console than the Xbox One or Switch there is no hope for you. The thing is trash and gets worse by the day. Sony literally cannot stop fucking over everyone who owns one.
>>
It's the best console this generation.
>>
>>389945745
>>389945761
Is this the part where I list all the PS4 exclusives and then you guys say "lol those don't count' ?
>>
>>389945745

Maybe you just don't have taste? It's the only platform with many exclusices that are extremely worthwile, even after 'losing' a whole bunch like Nier. And all the multiplatform games and ports of typical pc games including crpg and even rts. There is litterally no reasonable way to shit on the ps4 when talking about games.
>>
Sony won this generation.

legit answer incoming, i am bored

nintendo doesn't have games now, but the future seems to get better, as fans(somehow) loved the switch. there are botw and mario rabbids now, but the future probably have good exclusives (unless they do mariokart 9,10,11 and copy shit instead of doing new shit)

xbox is a 4k minecraft mememachine. i mean, /v/ said "it has no games" to every console, but xbox 1 took this shit to another level. give pc sunset overdrive too, that shit is the only worth thing left in xbox 1, kill that machine with fire pls.

about frame-dropstation 4.. i have a ps4 pro. all i can say is, atleast this shit has exclusives that make it worth buying. bloodborne, yakuza 0, persona 5 all are very good. the other exclusives, like the order 1886, are good experiences if you can get them for cheap.

so yeah. shit gen, ps4 is winner because it has fucking games.
>>
>>389945923

the Wii U had better exclusives than the PS4 and it's dead

it's absolute fucking trash m8
>>
sonybros are deluded and think 3 good exclusives (Bloodborne, Persona 5, Yakuza 0) and 3 okay exclusives (Gravity Rush 2, The Last Guardian and Uncharted 4) is a good return after 4 years
>>
>>389946013
no, it didn't. it did at the time, but PS4 surpassed it this year.

a wiiu will also only appeal to you if you enjoy nintendo games, if you don't then it has absolutely nothing else to offer.
>>
As evidenced by this post, they can't defend it so they attack the other consoles:
>>389944078
>>
>>389946065

well, in my opinion, that shit would be good if that thing had a fucking ending. other than that, i am ok with that game. i am not a shooter guy so i am looking at that game casually, comparing with cod and shit, order was interesting. outfits-lore(round table and shit) was ok, graphics were good, special weapons were fun(although there was only 2). i had fun with the game.

the problem is, game was all about graphics. ok, graphics, goodjob, well.. congralutions but i would fucking rather you finished the damn game. i think the order 1886 would get much better scores-reviews if the game was complete.
>>
>>389946213
>but PS4 surpassed it this year
it has like 5 good exclusives, the Wii U has 10
>a wiiu will also only appeal to you if you enjoy nintendo games, if you don't then it has absolutely nothing else to offer.
same thing applies for the PS4 unless you like movies
>>
>>389943741
Because last gen (yes the ps4 is last gen) was shit, and even though the Wii U had the best hardware (as in small, quiet, low power use, backwards compatability) and library, the PS4 has the most sales so devs dump all their anime games and multiplats on it.

Yeah I was born in 92 and the PS1 was my first console so I don't have any loyalty to Xbox or Nintendo

it's a shit console, pushed me over to PC, I can't see anyone who experienced the PS1 and PS2 think the PS4 is good

its the worst console though, playstation is right after that
>>
>>389946616
>it's a remake
From the ground up with a new engine, new combat, new controls, new cutscenes and story elements, new content, etc.

It's more like an expansion for 0 than it is a straight remake. It's also only $25.
>>
>>389946662
So I guess there won't be anymore PS4 games coming out until Sony rush out their switch killer, because they are shaking in their boots at the magnificent graphic fidelity the 360, I mean the Switch is capable of.

Yes, which entails 1 getting new combat, new controls, and new graphics. And additionally new content, undub and new cutscenes.

Why do remakes suddenly not count? Are you confusing them for remasters? They're not the same, you know.
>>
>people even counting the switch when not only is it not technically in the same Gen, it hasn't even been out for over a year yet
At least wait until 2018 rolls around, launch years for consoles have been shitty lately.

And before you call me a "Nintendo fanboy", the PS4 shits all over the Wii U, and the PS4 doesn't even have that amazing of a library compared to older PlayStation systems.
This last two generations have been laughably bad for everyone that isn't a PC gamer.
>>

>>
>>389947374
>not technically in the same gen
Yes, it is.
>>
>>389947337
why would they? They're not true exclusives and they're not truly original, they just take everything from a game and feed it into a newer engine

I'm not someone who hates them, but my standards aren't low enough to believe they're a brand new game
>>
>>389943741
It absolutely is

I own and love each Sony console and handheld, but the PS4 is definitely the autistic child of the family. Love it because I have it, but really wish it had turned out more like the others.

If I had a competent PC, I really doubt I would much use it at all. It's kind of redundant compared to its predecessors, which enjoyed a rich and varied native library, including cult or niche games and B-games that would not be funded today. But I figure this is owed in large part to publisher consolidation and runaway game budgets.

if remakes do count then Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD count for the Wii U

Yeah, except that isn't the case at all. Kiwami for instance uses the combat styles of 0 instead of 1, has an entirely new systems like Majima Everywhere, and much need story updates like Nishiki finally getting fleshed out after 20 years.

Remakes do count, remasters don't.

The first two games may be based off of old games but they have enough changes and advancements to be considered their own thing. And yes, if a game is only available on a certain platform, then it's an exclusive.

WW and TP are not remakes. Even OOT and MM on 3DS have more claim to being a remake.

Nope, much like Atari releasing the 7800 and the XEGS, and Hudson releasing the PC Engine and the PC Engine Duo, Nintendo have simply released two consoles during Gen 8.

I understand an underage newfag like yourself doesn't know anything before Gen 7, but this isn't actually something new.

I can understand arguing that it belongs in its own category, it's a hybrid and there hasn't really been anything like it before.

However, I think switch will be the outlier in that regard, and ultimately end up categorised as either an 8th gen home console or a handheld.
By 2020, MS and Sony will have announced new consoles, and Ninty will follow suit by 2023 at the latest. That will be Gen 9.

Sony, as a whole, just had the most profits they've had in two decades.

Furthermore, PlayStation isn't even their most profitable division. Sony Finance is.

PS4 will be worth comparing to older gens with the ending of its lifespan. And it can be defended, because PS4 and Switch are the only consoles worth buying these days and which to buy is a matter of preference.

no you're just trying rationalise their declining industry

as games continue to under perform on the PS4 expect ports to PC and Switch
>>
>>389955939
You actually think that Japs spend as much cash on development as EA or Ubisoft? Sure, Square Enix and SEGA might on various titles but most Jap devs are far smaller. Games getting PC ports is more of a lure to get western players aboard because Japan only cares about Playstation and phones.
>>
>>389955195
>Japanese devs are happy with their games selling like shit
>>
>>389956185
More like japs devs being happy for their games meeting realistic sales goals
>>
>>389956169
I hate to tell you this but the Switch is selling more than the PS4 in Japan
>>
because i spent money on it
>>
>>389956309
no they're not, it's why they're making phone games instead, they sell better than on the Playstation
>>
>>389956185
>What are profit margins
Games that are cheaper to make don't need to move as many copies to be considered successful. Catherine sold slightly less than 700,000 copies in its first year, which would be considered shitty for most western games but by Atlus's standards it broke expectations
>>
>>389956314
Wouldn't really be surprised by that, Switch's target audience are obviously japs.
>>
The PS3 and Xbox 360 had an even worse first 4 years than this generation. It only held so much regard back then because of the jump in graphical quality and the first HD consoles.
>>
>>389956314
The PS4 still has more lifetime units right now. If Nintendo gets their head out of their ass and actually puts units on shelves they'll be in business but for now that's not going to amount for much
>>
>>389956314
And?
>>
>>389956434
no they weren't, underaged
>>
>>389956560
the Switch is selling more than the PS4 did at launch in Japan
>>
>>389956434
Are you stupid? The first four years were pretty solid for both (the 360 more so than the PS3)

The jump from the PS2/Xbox to the PS3/360 was enormous in terms of features and graphical quality. Compare that to the jump from PS3/360 to PS4/Xbone, where the graphical jump isn't all that much and the consoles themselves are more of the same
>>
>>389956625
And? Launch sales are almost always high for systems then die down to more sustainable levels
>>
>>389945657
Quit being poor.
>>
>>389956397
m8 you don't get it

yeah they make enough profit to stay afloat, but do you think most businesses want just that? No they want to be a huge success and seeing their game sell 200,000 on a system with 60 million users is not encouraging, companies want to grow

that's why the PS4 is getting less exclusives that the other Playstations and Jap games will continue to get PC ports
>>
>>389956743
I had an Xbox 360 and really only the noteworthy games to come out that everyone remembered for the first 4 years was Halo 3, Bioshock, Gears of War, Oblivion and Mass Effect. Last generation was great if you enjoyed FPS and Third Person Shooters but offered very little else compared to what we've been getting now. This generation also had Japanese devs come swinging back after stagnating last gen.
>>
>>389956825
And it's still selling ridiculous numbers in Japan

PS4 is 5 million in Japan, Switch is about 2 million already after 6 months, it's going to sell more units there
>>
Is a PS4 Pro+ PC combo the best combo to have?
...at least i'll have actual games to play,right?
>>
>>389957151
That or Switch+PC, but it really depends on if you like Nintendo games.
>>
>>389957119
>forgetting Lost Odyssey, Condemned, Crackdown, Fable 2, Blue Dragon, Ace Combat 6, Kameo etc
>>
Well OP is objectively right, the PS4 is worse than the PS1, PS2 and PS3.
The PS4 also is objectively the best console on the market at the moment without any competition which just shows in what a bad time we are living.
>>
>>389943741
Because it's better than the current alternatives of consoles.
>>
>>389957032
>yeah they make enough profit to stay afloat, but do you think most businesses want just that?
Unless you're retarded like Capcom and Square i dont think any devs want more than they can chew
>No they want to be a huge success and seeing their game sell 200,000 on a system with 60 million users is not encouraging, companies want to grow
This makes no sense, if it were like that, most devs that worked on 3DS games would never want to deal with nintendo again since their games dont sell millions on a handheld with 70M users

Oh? Didn't know you were an accountant working for them. P5 is their best-selling game EVER in Japan after being on sale for only a month, and Catherine was considered a bigger hit than expected. Games don't have to sell a gorillion copies to make money. Not everyone is going to balloon to the size of Ubisoft. I'd say you don't get it. No shit they'll get PC ports (look at all the weeb shit already on Steam), because once again Japan only cares about consoles or phone. The PC market is far bigger in America or Europe, but even with that they still make a sales PROJECTION based on their BUDGET to decide if a game is a success. No matter your platform you will have these. Some games are successful without the PC port, others aren't, and some are even more. Just shitting out a game on both PC and console doesn't make it a guaranteed success.

that is literally the mindset of most Japanese devs, sorry if it triggered you

Yakuza will end up on PC eventually, Persona might as well
>>
>>389945745
The PS4 actually has over 1700 titles.
>>
>>389957973
If this were the case then they would have stopped making console games years ago.

Though in all actuality expect some established games to test the waters with a console release then follow up with PC support later

Says the retards who are saying that games are failures if they don't move X amount of units while not taking into account the cost of making them. Games can be successful without selling a million copies or being on PC, not to say being on PC wouldn't help but acting like it's a make or break deal is retarded

Rune Factory 4 sold more than Yakuza 0, which probably had a 10th of it's budget

Where's the 3DS Atlus games on PC?

Why arent most 3rd party games on the 3DS on PC already?
>>
>>389958810
Because it isn't necessary to make money. You're acting as if a game not being on PC or not selling as much as whatever shit EA pumps out is a death sentence when different games have different budgets.

Yeah, you will have more PC ports because PC gaming isn't as big in Japan and it's huge in the states. But not being on PC doesn't doom a game to failure, which i don't know why this is difficult for you to understand

Then why is 999, VLR and such on PC then?
Again why arent 3DS devs porting their games to PC if they want to make the most money possible?

What makes it's worse than the previous consoles? If one cannot compare it to the current generation without posts like these: >>389944078

Of the 4 home Playstation consoles, the PS4 has most of the games available from the other consoles, games of its own, and all the multiplatform games. It also has the best graphical capabilities, software suspention, spotify integration. I don't understand how one could've made this thread in seriousness.
Are you referring to the console's exclusives compared to previous generations? Because again, most of the PS3's exclusives have been remastered for the PS4, making them BETTER on PS4.
>>
>>389944659
>Competition is worse
Literally the ONLY thing Sony has on MS this gen is Bloodborne and Persona 5. There are no other PS exclusives worth a shit, and the PS4 UI manages to be a huge step down from XBM which I didn't even think was possible.

Also: why do we have a dedicated share button for videos if all it does is save a copy and I can't even message it to my friends? Xbox doesn't even have a fucking button and does all of the DVR stuff better

And yet they ported VLR and such to PC, same with Code of Princess a game almost no one wanted, again where's the PC ports?

it's alright. it has some good games to play. you've just gotten older so video games aren't doing it for you like they used to. you need to play things in the highest fidelity to have fun now-a-days as opposed to when you were a kid and could enjoy anything. after you experience so many games it's hard for new shit to wow you. it makes sense, as an adult, to just play games on PC.

It's better than the PS3 and the current competition

PS2 and 1 are on another plane of existence. Unable to compare
>>
>>389958805
Except when it comes to games and playerbase
C'mon if all your friends have a PS4 which one are you more likely to buy. I really liked my 360 but I made the jump this generation.
I'm jealous of the backwards compatiblitiy, and think that should become an industry standard.
However, I think the PS4 controller is better. If it was 360 vs. PS3 then xbox would win, but the PS4 controller is fucking perfect. The d-pad feels so good, and the screenshot button is a really cool feature. Also the track pad is really nice when playing games on your computer, since you can control the mouse with it.

The PS3 is still great in some ways; kingdom hearts collections (for cheap) for example, MGS4 and Asura's Wrath.
>>
>>389962018
the kh collection is cheaper on PS4, no? it also has all of the KH games on it and they run 60fps I believe. good point on the other games as well as the PS2 titles it has more of them (though they don't all run that well)

I think all of the PlayStation systems are pretty good by the end of their life. PS2 was definitely the strongest but they all have some good games on them when it's said and done.

Nigger, the PS3 was even worse. It only had dudebro movies (one of them being an actual fucking movie), wagglan near the end to compete with the Wii and the Kinect, and a drought of japanese vidya outside some 5/10 moeshit and Demon's Souls.

This gen being shit does not automatically make the last gen any better, 7th gen was a mistake.

I just wish Sony didn't sit on their lead. E3 this year was close to Nintendo 2015 levels of awful.
>>
>>389965004
>7th gen was a mistake
But the 360 is actually one of the best consoles of all time and could be in a top 5 if you enjoyed Gears and Halo 3 online
Sure, the Kinect killed the 360, but its first years were outstanding
>>
>>389943741
It's a good console for $250. The price/performance ratio is great since you're basically getting something close to an FX-6300, 8GB RAM, and a 7850 2gb in a console package with a controller, 500gb HDD, and cables. The only problem is that many of the weeb exclusives are just PS3 games at proper 1080p with last gen lighting, textures, effects, etc.

>>389943741
The library has been really disappointing so far. Have Bloodborne, Persona 5, and Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5/2.8. Going to buy KH3 next year (assuming it doesn't get delayed). There's nothing else really that I'm interested in. God of War and Spider-Man both look terrible, not interested in TLOU2, etc.

It feels like the generation has barely even started but people are already fucking talking about the PS5. Like really? If they seriously announce it within the next couple years I hope it flops, there's no way the average PS4 owner could be satisfied with this library.
>>
>>389967596
I agree with you but the same can be applied for all video games in general. Across all the platforms there really haven't been that many gems or fresh new ideas that are good. The PC only wins in comparison because it has decades of titles, but just looking at 2016 - 2017 releases there have been a handful of great games among piles of mediocre and trash games. Gen 6 had so many defining games, there are so many good and great PS2 era games, Gen 7 didn't have the numbers but still had enough new shit going on, and now this gen is just overall disappointing hence people getting hyped for remakes of remakes.
>>
I have one. What is wrong with it?
>>
>>389943741
I don't get paid to talk about why I prefer PS4 on the internet. I'll just say that I like it because it has the games I like.
