Haven't had a chance to catch up on this yet, any major announcements (apart from pretending to show games on consoles)?

I've been quite occupied with other life things of late, and therefore not upgraded to an Xbone yet from my 360. Having seen some of the changes to the PS4 operating system (making the ability to party up easier), I must admit I'm tempted to change my mind and get a playstation in stead.

Wow, totally unexpected.

It's the fact that they place X1 consoles under the screens to deceive people.

And Sony doing the same thing with a PS4 controller leading from them and not showing the console at all.

But yes, its very clear that you need a Titan GFX to run Ori, I dint dont see how that game will be able to run on an XO at all to be honest.

They still need to add in folder sorting etc but generally the ps4 os is pretty simple to use and works well, but the games for ps4 I woudkve thought should tempt you more...

some good stuff up and coming...

Don't know, be interesting to hear this one... Although wasn't it drive club running on pc hardware, or deep down?

Can't remember and haven't googled it yet

Umm , its right in the two articles post in the last page, even though the first one they run with the headline implying MS is the ONLY one to have done it.

It was EA:

EA (Not Sony) used Windows 7 PC to Show PS4 Demo of Need for Speed: Rivals At GamesCom 2013

When do we get to see The Division gameplay? I thought they was showing it off on the xbox one at gamescom?

ic1male · 17 Aug 2014 at 12:54

Interesting that on the Xbox dashboard gamescom survey, Destiny is gamer's choice by a mile.

Ah. Has any info leaked out? I'm interested to know how it stands up compared to the previous trailers we have seen.

ps3ud0 · 17 Aug 2014 at 13:19

Just seen a few general positive comments, nothing specific nor compared to the gameplay stuff weve seen. The game isnt in a great state (tearing, poor FPS and lack of AA) but thats to be expected. Second screen stuff is meant to be very cool and useful...

Nothing to worry us - unsure if we will see more footage until say VGXs at a guess

Thanks.

I've just had a read through and people do seem to be impressed with it but it's suffering from a few graphical issues but they have plenty of time to fix them. I'm looking forward to seeing some PS4 videos in the future.

I wonder how much difference there is on the xbox and ps4 versions? It makes me wonder if it's quite a gap and MS have asked ubisoft to only show off the xbox version for now....

ps3ud0 · 17 Aug 2014 at 13:40

Its more the normal partner deals that Ubisoft strike than anything - Sony had Watchdogs, MS has The Division afaik

Soulja · 17 Aug 2014 at 13:43

Ah right. It's still my most anticipated game this gen. I really hope it makes its intended 2015 release.
