It's just like Overwatch, except it's an arena shooter and plays nothing like Overwatch. Why are we comparing this to Overwatch?

Because we have to compare everything to it for some reason.
Good luck ! With Overwatch BTP and Paladin FTP, Lawbreakers will need it.
They compared fucking Battleborn to Overwatch, what did you expect ^^

Quake is going to be the biggest competitor to LB, I'd think.

It kind of reminds me of a PVP version of Evolve. Will keep an eye on it.

Then he realized he needed money from a install base that's high
Just going off the look & tone of the trailer that was linked.
Paragon on ps4 does and it works just fine.
Nah you're fine, it's the YouTube post I was laughing at.
Yes but assuming that the ONLY reason it didn't come out on the Xbox was bias is stupid. Especially since this is goddamn CliffyB.
Like Gears of War doesn't exist.

Lmao if they want the game then go pay the developers to port it. Obviously there's a reason why it's coming to the PS4 first. But if the first that comes to your mind oh Sony paid so that it won't come to other systems is just bullshit.

GAF has this weird habit of putting PS4 in the titles and leaving out the other versions (if they exist).
So I think it's only right to ask.

That's quite a stretch.
I bet he was constantly innondated with questions about PlayStation, and Sony probably asked them about it too

It looks fun. A lot more appealing to me than something like overwatch.
Yh I wouldn't be too worried unless the game is a complete failure or something there it will definitely come to XB1 I bet at some point.

Might've checked it if it was for free, but I'm definitely not paying for something that looks slightly above average.

It looks good and I'd rather pay than be nickel and dimed for every little thing. It's such a turnoff. Tried playing paladins last night and I couldn't stand it

Can we add to the OP or make a new thread with the new CG Trailer and PS4 Gameplay?
I love that they got "that one" voice actor to play the Blitzball. ;P

Yeah true. Plus I think I read it here or Reddit that CliffyB apparently said that just because there is no Xbox version now doesn't mean it can't happen later. Something along those lines.
Hopefully not a year after it though, just a few months. But we'll see, we don't even have a concrete release date for PS4 yet.

$30, 60 fps, Pro enhanced, and cosmetic MTs? I'm in

A lot more aerial movement then I've seen of this game before. It almost looks like a new Tribes game.

Your reply makes you sound exactly like the people you are shaming.
Btw is this game online only or can it be played offline?

I love Pokken!
This is CliffB's new game right? I'm sure GAF will love it.

Boss Key is still a relatively small team, can't fault them for going with the larger install base in PS4 first. Taking on 2 console ports at the same time is a heck of undertaking and I don't think they have the capital to outsource it at the moment.

is all the grunting and moaning normal? i dont remember any shooter game that was like this
it looked interesting though, i hope they put a PS+ trial or something

I'd kill for a new Tribes or Ascension on PS4.
All I can recall about this was how Geoffy did say something along the lines of how "I never said Lawbreakers was never going to be coming to consoles." Nice to know that almost two years later, that possibility has changed, although who knows what it is going to look like when we see it.
...
Perhaps next month, we'll get those details?

Dead on Arrival.
If you can't see why that line of reasoning is absolutely insane then I'm so sorry.

Glad it's coming to PS4. My PC was barely able to have a stable 48 frames on the Beta's homescreen.

And he confirmed 60fps on ps4!
Can they help Bungo make Destiny 2 also 60fps for the pvp?

I mean when someone so high up at Xbox writes they have no clue about Lawbreakers and probably were not pursuing it, why be surprised. Microsoft was the king of moneyhatting early next gen and have deep deep pockets, far deeper than Sony's. Nothing has stopped them from doing the same.
You would think after Destiny which got exclusive one year content like strikes, games like SFV avoiding Xbox altogether, and many other games, they would see what harm they are doing to the brand. People like Phil Spencer said they stopped doing 3rd party marketing deals to focus on their first party IP. And yet MCC was the worst launched game ever, Halo 5 was barebones, Gears 4 was decent, but aside from Forza, what has been amazing of the first party?
PS4 version should play well. At only $29.99 this is a great price. Excited to see what CliffyB has been upto.

Weird, because Overwatch itself is TF2 minus the humor and irony.
The Dark Souls of Overwatch clones.
Well, snoozer or whatever his name is that literally just reposts the Playstation blog here for multiplatform games causing us to look them up to see if they're available elsewhere, too.
Lol, what does that tweet have to do with your post? Where did he say what you're saying he did?

Have you ever liked a game but the aesthetic style put you off? I'm having that moment.
Price helps get over that though.

Well at least CliffyB still has love for Mike and vice versa. Seriously though, it'll probably end up on Xbox as well. True about deep pockets though. That should be no problem for MS and this is the kind of game they would want as well you'd think. But we're all assuming here now.
