ideo Kojima has described PS4 as a logical evolution of the PlayStation platform and welcomed its social aspects, but stressed the importance of quality software for the next-gen console.

Speaking to us after the launch of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Kojima said that he was too busy to actually watch Sony’s PlayStation Meeting, but when we described it to him, he responded: “Of course, I know what the hardware is, but I want to see how other companies are using it. First of all, I think that’s great, but it’s nothing special; you could see it coming. It’s the logical evolution of the platform and I think it has to head in that direction, hearing what you said is not surprising.”

“Honestly, I think all of that is good and great,” he continued. “Social aspects, the multidevice direction: that’s correct, that’s the way to go. But just because it has these features doesn’t mean it’s going to be a success. What will really determine whether or not it sells is what titles will be available for the platform. And unfortunately, even though I am friends with Mark Cerny, he’s never told me what other studios are working on. I even ate a meal with him recently and he didn’t tell me anything.”

Microsoft has everybody covered. They are trying to create the next Halo phenomenon by investing heavily in new gaming franchises. Like I said, everyone will see just how right Microsoft's plan for the next Xbox will be.

like I said before, Sony is a bullet point strategist corportation . they add features that are just good enough so they dont feel left behind. most of the features they add are not innovative and are just to gather some of that market.


its like they go down the line

completely taken out of context.

from a non-native engrish speaker, who prefaced that statement with

"first of all, i think its great,"

but let this thread do 10 pages.

So including blu-ray in PS3 and DVD in PS2 when nobody else was doing it isn't innovative?

I would wager not many of you finished high school.

In reference to "its great but nothing special"...he was referring to the social media, connectivity, its right there in the text.

Have we forgotten how to read sentences?
