Is Diablo 3 supposed to be a cakewalk? It won't let me turn up the difficulty any more until I get an unspecified number of additional skills and legendary items, but the ones I have already are making this game far too easy. I went through the first 30 levels or so last night and was just sorta bored by the end of it. I've only had to back off a fight once and had to heal maybe two or three times in five hours.
The worst part about Diablo 3 is the first playthrough of the story, unfortunately. Once you can get into torments, rifts, and adventure mode it becomes a much better and harder (if you want it to be) game.

For what its worth, I was talking to someone that actively dislikes video games the other day and for some reason Brain Age came up and it turns out that that is the one video game she played and enjoyed on her DS.

I only realized it yesterday when I saw one to scale with a WiiU controller but the Switch is omg huge and will not fit in anyone's pocket. I am really thinking that they have made a white elephant that isn't going to be particularly good as either a portable or home console.
Look forward to the Switch Micro

As someone that only owned one sony console before the PS4 (a PSP fat and then the first slim). What are the chances on getting a Monster Hunter tittle for the PS4?
Japanese people want to play Monhun on portables, the console releases don't sell well. So the chances are bad.

Don't be shocked when the Switch Monhun is the same quality assets running at glorious 720p.

Are there any good arcadey racing games ala burnout for the system? I have drive club which I like, but it's this weird mix of sim and arcade that I wish leaned a little more towards the latter.
The closest you're gonna get is The Crew, which is a bad game that becomes a mediocre game with DLC.

Can anyone talk about what makes Puyo Puyro Tetris so well liked? I'm not a huge puzzle game person, and I never loved Tetris attack back in the day, but I did really enjoy the Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo multiplayer. I'm wondering if Puyo Puyro Tetris will be something I enjoy.
Its just 2 excellent versions of really good puzzle games, and some fun and original mashup stuff. If you don't like Tetris and/or Puyo Puyo then its not gonna change your mind.

Yeah, every Yakuza game recaps all the relevant plot points of the previous ones so you can jump in wherever if you don't wanna play a million Yakuza games, I mean you should but I won't hold it against you.

There are lots of women in the Yakuza series (can't speak to 0) that don't exist just to be victimized as a plot point, but it does happen. In the end its a Japanese gangster drama though and its not too surprising.

The split screen in GW1 is super limited, its just a really simplistic endless horde mode with all of the progression stripped out. If you picked it up when it was free though its not a bad place to dip your toes in. If you guys like it I definitely suggest upgrading to GW2, it has a much wider variety of things to do locally, and the game in general is just blown the gently caress out.

It sounds like arguments I have heard about the tank RE games. Sure, the game is designed around limiting your movement and what you can see but it doesn't keep it from being infuriating that it seems like your real enemy is the controls and camera and not the zombies and stuff.

But again, I haven't played TLG and it sounds like problems with it are overblown.
If you played Shadow of the Colossus, its pretty much the exact same argument people made about Argo not controlling like a motorcycle.

i was going to try psnow, but it requires a credit card for the free trial. i guess because they have a fantasy of someone using infinite 7 day trials? why not lock it to the console ID, a thing i am sure they can do. i can live without playing those few games on psnow i'm interested in anyway
No its so they can automatically charge you for a month after you forget you signed up for the trial. Like every other subscription service that does free trials.
