Jason Rubin On Console Power


Good afternoon everyone.

Thank you for joining me.

Jason Rubin, Co-Founder of Naughty Dog and Former THQ President has given his thoughts on the power of both consoles, he was asked about the PS4 and Xbox One hardware power on Twitter by a user named 'NOVA' and this is his response.

Then when asked for clarification, this is what he responded with.


I agree with what he's saying.

What he's saying is that even if either console was more powerful than the other, the experience with the console is what matters the most, not the power. If the developer can not take advantage of the developing power that the console offers them and we end up with a game with terrible gameplay or has many glitches and errors, console power will not matter if the experience is terrible.

The games available, the price of the system, the overall experience on the console itself regardless of power that makes it the better console. Not hardware power, it's something that has been proven over and over again through the course of time.

A good example is the Atari Jaguar when it came out, it was at the time the more advanced console on the market but the experience on it was terrible,the games looked awful and they played horribly, you can look up the Angry Video Game Nerd on Youtube to see exactly what I'm talking about. Even Spoony from That Guy With The Glasses who played The Highlander Game on the Jaguar is a good example how powerful console specs do not matter if the experience on said console is terrible.

That's it for now ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Weapon Guide:M-TAR Assault Rifle

Hello everyone, time for my first weapon guide of Black Ops 2. Today we're looking at the starting assault rifle, the M-TAR. History The Micro-Tar is a micro version of the TAR-21 rifle. It's designed to take advantage of a shorter barrel which means decreased recoil but increased accuracy. Designed for special fores units, it is capable of converting to different ammo variants such as the NATO standard 5.56 cartridge and the 9mm submachine gun round. It is also designed to be capable of attaching a Suppressor, as of 2009 a grenade launcher was being designed to attach to the M-TAR, the M-TAR can attach the M203PI grenade launcher. If you're a FPS veteran then you saw this weapon first in Battlefield 3 as part of the Close Quarters DLC, for COD veterans we saw this weapon's bigger brother, the TAR-21 in Modern Warfare 2. I'm warning you now, the M-TAR is not the TAR-21 we saw in Modern Warfare 2. Multiplayer Stats, Attachments and Performance In gam

Retro Gazette Reviews:Batman Returns SNES Review

Hello everyone. Welcome to another one of my Retro Reviews. Today we're going to be looking at a personal favorite of mine from the Super Nintendo era. Batman Returns. Story Music If you can't tell all ready from the intro video above, the music to Batman Returns for the SNES sounds great and does a good job of recreating some of the songs we heard in the film. My personal favorite stage music is from Stage 7 when you enter Arctic World, The Liberation of Gotham track sounds amazing in 16 bit audio. It's strange to review the music in a video game but the audio stands out so much and does an amazing job, again of recreating the films' soundtrack. Presentation The graphics and detail of Batman Returns is very good and ironically is much more colorful than the Tim Burton film. Gotham City, although currently suffering from a clown riot looks fantastic and Konami yet again does a good job of recreating scenes from the film, you see all these backgro
