Topic: Your Latest PS4 Purchase

I finally got the cash for an external drive- a Seagate 8TB. Was $184, but I'll be able to play more games now without worrying about space.

@DerMeister Hi, was it this one?

Cause one of my friends was saying that he was thinking getting the 4TB version.

@WanderingBullet No, it was the Backup Plus Hub. Although now I wish I got that one, since it's cheaper.

I can't make any real recommendations, since I'm not a tech wiz. All I can say is get what's best for his gaming habits I guess.

@DerMeister No worries.

Tbh, I'm not even sure if he has already bought one. He was asking me last week whether he should get that model but my reply to him was that I don't much about tech stuff.lol

@Tasuki Rondo is fantastic. Probably my favorite game in the series!

@Ralizah I played it on the Wii VC and loved it, just couldn't understand anything

RIGS and Astro Bot! Looking forward to them whenever I buy a PSVR in the distant future

Just bought DMC, Resident Evil 7 Season Pass and Prey Definitive Edition from the ps store.

@JohnnyShoulder were these all discounted,?

@Kidfried Yeah the first two in the Halloween sale and then Prey in the double discounts sale. Paid about £30 for em all!

I couldn't resist anymore, I got Nekopara on the PS4. If anyone has any questions about it with the censoring and all feel free to ask. Oh, and don't @me with the spoilers. The tags don't work in E-mail notification and I haven't played Nekopara before.

The steelbook is really weighty. I like it.

@RogerRoger Mmmm .... I like a good steelbook. Very nice. It does look like 47 used it for target practice there though with that little dent. A nice effect. 😉

@beemo Hey, we're all only human.

@Th3solution I thought exactly the same thing. If it were any other game, I might've taken it back to the store, but I reckon it kinda works.

At least, that's what I'm repeatedly telling myself to get my OCD to shut the heck up.

@RogerRoger Yeah, I have a bit of obsession with some things and if I have a minor defect I like to say that it’s just what makes my copy unique to me. But yeah, with an assassination game, a bullet mark is actually pretty cool. In fact, I would go so far as to say it’s better that way. You’re lucky. 😄
After reading the reviews, I am pretty curious about Hitman 2, having never played it before. But good grief, I have plenty on my plate for now. I look forward to reading your impressions of the game though —specifically how good of an entry point it would be for a newbie to the franchise.

@Th3solution The Intro Pack for Hitman 2016 is free. So you can just download that?

It contains two smaller missions, but you'll get an immediate idea of how gameplay will work out. The first free mission is also good at introducing you to the game mechanics.Also, you can finish both once in less than an hour, so it won't take up a lot of time. But you can also decide on replaying them to get all the different endings, which is where most of the fun is.

I really recommend it! Even if you will never play anything more of the game afterwards, it works great as a palette cleanser.

@Th3solution Basically what @Kidfried said.

I'll be starting Hitman 2 on Sunday evening (hopefully) or Monday morning (probably) and will definitely share my thoughts. I have a feeling this'll be my biggest game of the year, and I could very easily just sink into playing it for a good while, especially with all the previous game's levels back.

@RogerRoger @Kidfried I expect I’ll be taming the Wild West for a while, and beating up opponents in search of a magical sword with a moving eyeball in it, but if I get an itch to assassinate someone, I may need to give it a go.

@RogerRoger Noice! I was going to get the first one but as this contains the missions might treat myself to this at Christmas.

Bought Tennis World Tour and AO International Tennis from a current sale. Largely because I miss playing tennis games and wanted one or two for the PS4. I'm not a die-hard tennis fan, but more of a casual fan and player, I'm not looking for 100% accuracy.

Tennis World Tour still has noticeable framerate drops or stutters/jerks on the regular PS4 (i.e. not the Pro), it happens 3-5 times in every match I play. It is a rather janky game, not as smooth as it needs to be. Apart from this major issue I quite like the game; the physics, the gameplay, the content, and so on. I'm a single-player gamer so I'm only interested in the "Career stuff", and this game actually has an interesting and unique Career mode. It's just a shame it doesn't run smoothly. I would rate the game 2.5/5 as it is now, and cannot recommend it to anyone for the regular PS4.

AO International Tennis, in comparison, is a much better game. In fact I would say it is a very good tennis game. It has been patched a great deal and I don't notice any framerate issues at all on the regular PS4, it runs and plays very smoothly. It also offers a more immersive tennis "experience"; the audience reacts to how you play, the audio sounds more authentic, and so on. It looks better visually and has lots of gameplay options. So far the game is a solid 4/5 for me, they've done a good job of patching the game. If you liked Top Spin this is worth a look.

So if you're thinking of buying one of these, it's definitely AO Tennis you should get.
