Topic: What PS3 game(s) are you currently playing?

Having enjoyed Fahrenheit and Heavy Rain, and loved Detroit Become Human, I'm shortly going to see what Quantic Dreams 'Beyond Two Souls' is all about. I have the PS3 version, which might mess with my head, given that the sequencing in it differs from the PS4 version, so I understand. Anybody else played it?

@AgentCooper @purple_mouse_gaming I think that's only available in the PS4 version. I played the PS3 version and I couldn't see an option like that.

Anyway, the sequencing in the PS3 version didn't detract from my experience of the game. Quite the opposite, it made me pay more attention to the story in order to remember everything that has happened thus far. As a result, I actually enjoyed the PS3 version more than if the story had been chronological.

@purple_mouse_gaming @LtSarge The PS4 version sticks to that sequencing by default, and that's how I played it. While I have a handful of issues with the game, the story not being chronological was not one of them. You get used to it.

Making my way through the Resistance games.

Finally beat Star Wars Force Unleashed 1 last night. then did the Endor DLC for Force Unleashed II.

@purple_mouse_gaming Yes i have platinumed Beyond two souls on ps3 and ps4

beyond two souls is a great game alot of people cant get their head around the out of order timeline but its because as jodie says her memories are all jumbled and shes trying to piece them together. I very much enjoyed piecing together the puzzle its pretty simple just look at the time line before each chapter to see where it fits in the timeline.

ps4 version offers both original and chronological order and while chronological order may sound better i think its actually worse as it shows the gaps in the timeline and still isnt actually fully in chronological order

@trev666 My main issue with Beyond: Two Souls is not the out of order timeline. That usually never bothers me whenever a game, movie, or TV show does that. For me, it was the padding. It could have easily been a bit shorter as I felt at least a couple of the flashback sequences were unnecessary. I still liked the game, but I would put it easily third amongst their PlayStation exclusives (Detroit: Become Human and then Heavy Rain in that order).

Nothing wrong with you loving it of course. I wish I could put it up there with the other two games.

there are alot of stone cold classics on ps3

cheap as well

@Bentleyma any reason why u prefer that over playing it on the ps4 ?

i was hoping to play MK9 in anticipation of whatever NRS is doing but, the disc is scratched in areas so i got a refund from the seller, i still have the game though.

@Bentleyma ps3 version of arkham asylum is almost exactly the same as the ps4 version due to that the ps3 version was so good in the first place and that they did basically nothing when they ported them to ps4

I have just finished PS3 Taxidermist DLC for heavy rain was good had 5 endings

weird it wasn't included on the ps4 version

@Bentleyma Cool games you are playing. Batman: Arkham Asylum and 'Arkham City are very good games in my opinion, loved them. It feels bit unfortunate that it seems that many people have kind of forgot about them (and some other action titles)... It would cool to know more about your experience with the games later on hehe.

'I had to like force myself to stop playing Arkham City a little more then a year ago because otherwise I would have had a hard time to move on to other games.. Felt like I could play that game forever hehe.

Dragon Age II. It has its flaws, but don’t get all the hate. It’s not Origins, but it’s still good on its own merits.

@MidnightDragonDX glad you’re enjoying it bud. From memory, it just felt like a bit of a step back from Origins (to me at least). It been a while but I remember it being a fair bit more linear… and maybe that you couldn’t switch to control party members (could be wrong on that last part though).

@MidnightDragonDX Same here. I remember enjoying it when I finally played it on my Xbox a couple of years ago or so. Like you said, it's not as good as Origins, but it was still enjoyable. I also liked how they told the story via the cutscenes in between acts.

You can switch control to party members as needed. Playing as a mage and switch to one of my rogues to disarm traps and open chests a lot. I was annoyed there were fewer places you can switch out characters at first, but got over it.

I quickly got sick of one of my companions whining about mages and templars. Yes, I get that’s the main conflict. Since I’m a mage and he’s one, just kept him out of the group after I maxed my relationship with him.

Currently in the final act completing side quests since there’s only a few main ones.

@Bentleyma Human Revolution is great, The Director's Cut is even better but not really sure if it's on PS3, it's awesome on Wii U though.

@Bentleyma that is crazy cheap, the platinum is somewhat easy too, if you're into trophy hunting.

@edwinjoe450 Deus ex human revolution directors cut is on ps3 ( i own it) it comes with the dlc and new game+ where as the original version doesnt
