Topic: Your Latest PS4 Purchase

The last of us part 2

Just bought F1 2020 Schumacher Edition, which turns out that you can play it today, so I did. The new my team mode is where I've started, put the difficulty up with a few assists and qualified seventh in Australia. Got an amazing start into third and followed Albon until I flew off the road with worn tyres, luckily just before the pit lane, after all the stops I was back in third and chased him down but had to turn my fuel mix down, still passed him into turn 3 on the last lap but a small mistake let him by and I came home in third.

It was one of the most exciting races I've had on a game for a long time and a great first impression, now to earn some money to improve the car as I feel I may struggle on some circuits

@carlos82 Sounds great, really looking forward to getting my hands on it sometime soon. Do you play with full damage? Last time round on Monaco, I almost made it all the way round until Hamilton clipped me and I flew into a wall and my front wheels fell off. Race over!

@nessisonett he must have mistaken you for Albon 😆

I always full damage and so far I've seen how fragile the front wings are, with noticable understeer with even slight damage and tyre wear is very noticable, I even had my ers system fail multiple times reducing my power. Amazing game so far

@carlos82 The front wings have always been a problem for me, I’m not particularly good and the slightest bump in 19 made the understeer really noticeable. Never had my ERS fail though, that’s pretty cool if annoying!

@nessisonett I'm guessing its been added for my team, early on as your starting it seems like parts have high failure rates because your poor 😆

I really want to buy a wheel now

Just bought Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2 and am really excited to start it later. It was £1.50 cheaper than on the Switch for some reason.

@mookysam Nice. I'll be preordering the Switch physical whenever it goes live, and, like the first one, I'll play it with my M30 controller.

@Ralizah I played the first one on my 3DS but I just can’t bring myself to get the Switch version because I really need a controller with a D-Pad. I use the Cube controller for every game that doesn’t use L but I still don’t have anything that has a nice D-Pad, which makes games like Hollow Knight really hard to play with the crap joy-con stick.

@nessisonett That's why I use the M30! It has possibly the best D-Pad I've ever used.

For handheld, while it's a bit pricey when it's not on sale, I've really taken to the Split Pad Pro, which also has a really decent D-Pad for 2D games. The Switch Lite's D-Pad is also pretty good.

I kind of forgot the first one had released on 3DS. It seems like a good fit for the system, though.

@Ralizah Yeah, once I decide to actually go back to my Switch and finish all those games I’ve left untouched, I’ll probably pick up something made by 8bitdo, whether that’s the Mega Drive one or the SNES one.

@Ralizah Ooh I remember asking you about that controller a while ago. Is this the right one? M30 Controller

@mookysam That's it.

Keep in mind that, due to the unusual button layout, you need to use it with games that feature button remapping to get the most out of it.

But for games like CotM that allow you to remap buttons, it's awesome.

@Ralizah Brilliant, cheers.That’s going on my “to buy” list. Will you have a long wait for your physical copy of Curse of the Moon 2 and does it come with any additional goodies?

@mookysam Probably. LRG releases usually take months to go into production and ship out, which is why I skipped out on snagging Shantae and the Seven Sirens physically, since I didn't want to wait to play it.

As to extras... it really depends on the game! Some just come with a box and cartridge, but I've seen others ship with manuals, little foil cards, and other goodies as well. A lot of games come with more expensive "collector's edition"s that are filled to the brim with stuff, too.

@thiz I think you have more than enough quality gaming there for the moment!

I hope you enjoy GoW and Spidey as I think they’re two of the best games on the console.

Just bought a sealed copy of Judgment for € 20.
The game is only € 12 now on the Store, but the retail version must be pretty rare if Amazon too can't sell me a copy in Italian: I've only found a UK version and it's € 77!

@thiz ...Kratos was always voiced by an African-American voice actor? And he was only replaced in the reboot? I literally played the trilogy at the end of last year and his voice is consistent throughout it.

As we are getting towards the end of the gen, I've realised my PS4 physical collection is possibly the biggest console collection of games I have at something like over 40 games. Decided though I might try and pick up some of the physical PS4 exclusives from a collecting point of view, so found a relatively cheap copy of Gravity Rush Remastered on ebay.

I bought this illustration a few months ago.
The truth is not bad.
