That "tag" feature they're doing in this game sounds pretty sweet...Totally changes things around. I really like how EverQuest Next is change MMO's...Again.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

All of those tiers in the world is cool.

 

[Benstamania]

I went ahead and created a threat for this in the MP forum since it's a PC and nine times out of ten a PS4 game.

This level of destructibility is mind-blowing. How the hell are they going to manage this in an MMO?!

 

[Benstamania]

I dunno, it's EQ..So...They'll pull it off.

 

[Green Goblin]

I think Watch Dogs looks great. I think this could be one of the best new franchises in years.

 

[Benstamania]

Agreed, crazy to see that Ubisoft plans on revealing yet another brand new IP at GamesCon. They're really becoming a league of their own when it comes to Development.

Goodbye XMB; Hello PDM (Playstation Dynamic Menu)

Video Shows Leaked PS4 User Interface​

​

During a video demo of Blacklight: Retribution, which is above, the game crashed and the PS4 UI appeared. While it might not seem like much, there are a few interesting details to be found within the short section of undoctored footage.

Remember that this is footage from a test PS4 kit, so it’s not necessarily comparable to what the final PlayStation Dynamic Menu will look like, but it’s interesting nonetheless.

Things such as the fact that the PS4 recovers from the crash without having to be restarted and that games are considered applications, so could likely run alongside other applications. There also seems to be something akin to Vita’s livearea, with “Connect to the Internet and view the latest information for this application” appearing below the title.

It appears that recording automatically starts once the game is loaded up, with a little video recording icon appearing in the top right when he attempts to boot the game after the crash.

Visually, it looks good – there’s an enhanced focus on the PSN Store, your friends list and even trophies, which all have icons across the top bar, with an additional space which appears to show that you’ll be listed by your first and last name rather than your PSN ID.

It seems to flow nicely too, switching between sections with zooming effects. Did you notice anything else?

I like it, looks pretty smooth. I never had a problem with XMB, but it did seem clunkier (not sure if that's the right word or not) than XBLA's interface.

 

[TX85]

Your first and last name instead of PS ID only gets listed/shows up when your signed on to social network accounts right?

Or it automatically does that after setting up my console and having to type in a first and last name?,Can it be turned off or can I bypass it by typing a gamer id as first&last name??

 

[Havok83]

its only if you link it to FB and even then I think theres options to display it only to your FB friends rather than random gamer on the net

 

[Benstamania]

^what he said.

 

[TX85]

Oh ok cool

 

[X Knight]

so it only displays your first and last name when you're logged into a social network site?

 

[Benstamania]

Only when you sync it.. And only to your friends, not random gamer #364

 

[TX85]

When is the next event that Sony will be at?,They still haven't revealed the release date

 

[Tron Bonne]

Gamescom. August 21st-25th. Good chance of them releasing the date then

 

[Benstamania]

Yesterday MS announced that you will have to have a gold account to dvr games, etc.. Today Sony announced that you do NOT need PS Plus to record and stream games.
