I played MH Freedom Unite for an unhealthy amount of time, and it burned me out of the franchise haaard. Loved that game a ton, but I bounced off each of the 3DS Monhuns really quickly, because even after all those years I was still sort of sick of it being more or less the same game but repackaged.

World looks like it changed the formula up enough for me to take another plunge. This is gonna be The One to win me back.

the most microsoft thing they could have done was made tomb raider the tie-in for xbox (and pc for that matter)

3rd party game that's vaguely similar sort of if you squint hard enough and that people already touted as the xbox's answer to a sony game

Lot of people on friends list playing Seven Days to Die. Is that any good on the PS4 then?

If it's anything like the pc version, probably not. The devs keep adding mundane poo poo to extend the mid game but a lot of it feels unfun.

On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

Monster Hunter World evolving guest costumes to straight up guest characters with Aloy means there's a non-zero percent chance that you could just play as Bloodborne guy at some point. Capcom loves having crossover spots with other games in Monster Hunter these days and since it's not a Nintendo game they probably need to tie up with SOMETHING!

It looks really cool in VR and I like the way your character moves.

However, it is the most bog standard platformer I have recently played.

It's weird I've only just started playing Nier Automata but I really hadn't even thought about the over-sexualized robot lady. But so far she hasn't done anything like Bayonetta overt yet.

The whole thing seems so sterile and abstract artsy japano-sci-fi and the camera work/shooting segments make it even more abstract that it didn't really click "oh that's totally unnecessary", I'm still grappling with the goofy enemy design versus the very serious boss designs and if there's some in game reason or if it's just like, eh beating up placeholder art works. But again, not too far.

How it all works with the shooting system, the aerial attachment, the chips; it's a very cool and ambitious "game systems as user systems" design goal that is kinda mind blowing.

I played Nier demo and didn't think much about it either.

I don't get bothered about sexualized characters or violence often. At this point and with my job is hard to shock me with a videogame. TLoU can get there but not being a dad gives me +1 to resist dad feelings.

Got GT Sport free with my PS4 Pro. Couldn't even FIND the VR option.

Got Dirt Rally in the recent sale. VR is loving amazing. Not since the days of playing network Q rally on a postcard-sized screen size with a fresnel lens in front of me have i had such fun in a cargame.

Doesn't seem to stream that though so no footage whatsoever. Some motion sickness, went away after 5 minutes or so. Did not realise it would give me actual butterflies going over crests.

GT Sport VR mode could be so good, but you don’t get access to all the cars and tracks and you can’t race online in VR

It doesnt have to shock you cuz honestly it doesn't shock me either but that doesn't mean you can't be aware of it as an issue and how problematic it is

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I finished Lost Legacy this morning and I would say it's precisely the right portion of Uncharted to enjoy the great visuals, witty banter and tomb raidin' while not getting too frustrated by 50/50 will-this-kill-me platforming and ho-hum combat. At least the checkpointing is extremely generous. More games should dare to provide 6-8 hours of a solid, focused campaign at a reduced price point. I'd buy stuff like Legacy and Hellblade all the time even without the trophy hunting to create more replay value.

Indeed though it's not the game's fault that some weirdo fucks made doggystyle buttcheek mousepads in its image, since they'll take any opportunity to do so; rather it more accurately reflects the intersection of commodity culture in general with Japan's particular brand of sexual restriction.

Sadly, Sony if sticking to their "anything should run on both Pro and original" statement still, at least until mod of their userbase if on Pros, which is unlikely given how cheap the Slim was for Black Friday. The regular PS4 just isn't up to the task of processing all that poo poo at once. I'd bet the Pro could at least do online races with 4 people or maybe more, but because the mode can't be "Pro Only" we'll never get it.

I am in the process of transferring files to my new Pro. After that I'm gonna have to figure out what to do with the extra launch one.

It would have been a lot more acceptable if the controls weren't both rear end and half-useless. I think you use the roll twice in the entire game, the first time as part of a tutorial, you have to hold down a trigger for the entire game to move at an acceptable speed, and all of the extra buttons to hit while dancing don't really do anything useful.

There were coin-style pickups that didn't seem to do anything; I suppose those are for the "speedrun" mode that I have zero interest in because the controls suck.

The art style was nice (except in desperate need of a non-terrible model for the MC in the real world parts), but as a game to be interacted with it's really not very good.

The story is probably the single most shopworn theme in indie games.

It does feel sometimes like a bad childhood is an important element in indie game dev
