Besides MGS, what relevant games has Konami put out in recent years? Honest question

Pro-Evolution Soccer and they also have an excellent baseball game they only release in Japan. It seemed like a no brainer for them to bring it to the States with a MLB license since 2k stopped making baseball games, but they never did.

I guess I'm doing it wrong. In the couple years that I've had Plex, I've never once added a channel? I originally got Plex Pass because it also gave you the Android app for Free. I think it still does that? But it's made watching TV and movies so easy, I don't mind supporting them.

I didn't really have a use for channels either until Yahoo picked up Community. Since there's no native app for Yahoo Screen for PS4 like there is on Android and Xbox--and if there was it'd probably be loaded with ads anyway--it's the only way I can watch Community the same way I do all my other TV shows. The Plex app doesn't support channels yet, so you have to use the web browser.

It's not the most straightforward thing in the world, so if anyone else wants to watch Community, Other Space, etc. on their PS4, go over to the TV House and look in the Community thread. I posted details on how to set it up.

Noodle: Pretty sure the app is the same on both PS3 and PS4. The PS3 browser works for loading the Plex server just like the PS4 one does too, for that matter. Although if you're on PS3 still there's pretty much zero reason to use Plex over the far-superior UMS.

So I guess my question is, why go through all that, instead of adding Community to Sickbeard, and watch it through the regular Plex that is supported?

Because I can watch it at 8PM on the dot every Tuesday in full 1080p instead of waiting 18-48 hours for a 1080p WEB-DL to appear on usenet. No reason to consider watching a lower quality WEBrip.

(There's no commercials while watching it through the Plex channel, in case I didn't make that clear.)

LOL, that gif is for a conference that happened Dec 2014.

The biggest problem with these new consoles is it takes a fucking army to make anything in todays market. Japanese on the PS3 had a shit ton of exclusives, but they were all games that could be made by small studios.

If you make a small game now on next gen console people just call it an indie game, and if you make a huge game you have to go cross platform just to recover your money.

Well....I still found it lol'able. And it can be applied to any Sony conference!

Also Omega Quintet is a PS4 exclusive and it's not indie at all and I think it sold pretty well

The decline of the jrpg has done more damage to my relationship with gaming than anything else. That Omega Quintet looks ridiculous, but I'm gonna buy it anyway.

Konami it's:

Metal Gear
Castlevania
Silent Hill
Suikoden
Zone of the Enders
Pro Evolution Soccer
Pro Baseball Spirits
Tokimeki Memorial (dating games)


In the music department:

Dance Dance Revolution
Beatmania
Guitar Freaks
Pop'n Music
Karaoke Revolution


And also (many games of each IP, none recent):

Gradius
Parodius
Mystical Ninja (Ganbare Goemon)
Contra
Silent Scope
Frogger


The sad thing is that they made a lot of money in the last fiscal year because turning to cell phone development proved lucrative.

Honestly, I wish I had just waited on the PS4 purchase. I have no doubt I would have bought one eventually but probably when it had dropped to $299 and revision 2 of the console. The Blu-Ray drive spin-up sound annoys me. My PS3 is completely silent.

I'm not as demanding as I used to be concerning graphics so the PS3 has been completely fine for me. I'm playing Dark Souls 2 currently and I think the game looks great. Plus I stream stuff to my PS3 via Plex and it works flawlessly. No complaints.

Moral of the story: get a PS3 if you don't care 1080p graphics. There are a ton of great exclusive games plus many others if you don't already have an XBox 360 or game on a PC.
