PlayStation News: Battlefield 4 releases large patch, Uncharted trilogy on PS4?

Here's the latest news I wrote over at Gamer Headlines for Wednesday, July 9th, 2014.

Battlefield 4 releases patch for PlayStation 3 and 4, adds modes and game fixes

A large amount of bugs and glitches were fixed along with DICE even adding a new game mode to both PlayStation editions of Battlefield 4, a game that apparently will never be completely fixed.

It's been eight months since the game has been released and many fans and gamers are just looking ahead to the next installment, Battlefield: Hardline -- assuming that isn't filled with bugs and glitches that make the game damn near unplayable.

I truly admire DICE's attempt to fix a disaster, but EA needs to do some quality control instead of releasing a buggy game and simply apologizing for it later. By no means does game need to be 100% out of the box, but game-breaking glitches are simply not acceptable.

Sony president believes Uncharted 'good candidate' to remake on PlayStation 4

We all saw a ton of Sony HD remasters on the PS3 -- God of War, Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper, etc. Let's hope that trend doesn't continue with 1080P and 60FPS updates on the PS4. There's no need for those games to be re-released on the PS4 and there's no reason to upgrade the entire PS3 catalog to the "super high-definition" we get in PS4 games.

However, with the PS4 opening up its life with a much bigger install base than its predecessor, it would be wise for Sony to update its biggest hits and re-release them. They're doing it with The Last of Us, and they should do it with Uncharted. Releasing a trilogy package would be a great deal for those that missed out on it in the last generation.
