Unfortunately the PS4 port of SO3 has a bit of a crashing problem.
It's not 100% of the time but it seems to be that if you keep making the map bigger and smaller it bugs out and crashes it.
I recall it crashing on me a number of times by doing this but it was seemingly only at one section of the game in which I could consistantly get this to happen to me and like 80% of my time was smooth sailing. Hopefully it's a-ok for you.
For an older PS2 title with no autosave, which you can only save at designated save points and an action JRPG... Just make sure you save every time you can! (The actual PS2 version doesn't have this problem either).
I think the port/remaster of Star Ocean 1 is perfectly fine though (I haven't played it or really looked it up mind you) and Star Ocean: The Last Hope has ran exceedingly well (besides some very notable camera stutter on the overworld).
So after a bit of chatter on the Trails into Reverie article on the front page, I’ve gone ahead and ordered Trails of Cold Steel 1 & 2. I’m pretty sure that they’re turn-based JRPG’s… and I’ve been very vocal about my inability to click with turn-based combat mechanics but I just feel drawn to the series. I think it’s the unashamed positivity I see from everyone who plays this series… and I think that I have to at least give them a try I guess.
@LN78 I dunno mate tbh… I’m not entirely sure which arc Reverie is a part of but the wiki suggests that it takes place 5 months after Cold Steel 4, so it definitely won’t hurt to go from ToCS4 to TitR.
I've had an eye on Rage 2 for a while as I quite enjoyed the first. Almost went it for a few times around £8 but saw it £6 today and finally went for it. I'll probably save it for after GoW Ragnarok.
I haven't bought many games lately and considering there's a Halloween sale going on now, I figured now would be a good time to buy some horror titles that are on my wishlist. So I bought Yuoni, Manhunt, Yomawari: Midnight Shadows and Amnesia: Rebirth for a total of €40. Yuoni looks like an interesting Japanese first-person horror game. I haven't played the Manhunt games before so I'm looking forward to playing it for the first time. I have the first Yomawari and it looks like a pretty unique horror experience, so I'm excited to play them down the line. Finally, Amnesia is a series that I've been wanting to play for a long time and now that I have Rebirth, I might give the first game a go sooner rather than later.
It's really nice to have so many horror games to choose from on PS4. There's certainly no lack of them on the system!
Pre-ordered River City Girls 2 from Limited Run Games. I don't play my PS4 much these days, but since I have the first one and I preorder River City Girls 0 from LRG, I figured I may as well get 2 on PS4 as well.

It's on sale for £6.39 at the moment and I haven't played it for well over a decade. In fact I don't remember a whole lot about it to be perfectly honest beyond knowing I enjoyed it and a general outline of what happens.
The recent remake trailers were really something though and I thought I'd go back to the original to see how it holds up

Bought some more horror games in the sale. This time I got Tormented Souls and Zombie Army Trilogy for roughly €15 in total. I haven't played a Sniper Elite game before and for €5 I thought I'd give this series a go.
While buying games on PS4, I realised that Sony has added PS1 titles on PS4. I know that they were available through PS+ Premium, but I didn't know you could get them standalone. And to my surprise, they are actually Cross-buy if you already own them digitally on PS3/Vita. So I downloaded Resident Evil: Director's Cut, Jumping Flash, Wild Arms and Syphon Filter. Played a bit of RE1 and the game actually looks much better now! On top of that, you can rewind and save at any time, which is absolutely brilliant since that was a feature that I've desperately wanted to see on PS1 Classics on PS3/Vita. Considering that a lot of PS1 games are difficult, I feel more inclined to play them now on PS4 thanks to the rewind and save state features.
Anyway, so I saw that Syphon Filter 2 is also available on PS4. The problem is that the game (as well as the other PS1 titles on PS4) costs €10. PS1 titles on PS3/Vita used to cost a minimum of €5, which I remember the Syphon Filter games cost. So I thought, is it possible to buy Syphon Filter 2 on PS3 for €5 (you can't buy it on Vita) by adding funds on the webstore and then download it on PS4 so you can save yourself €5? And that absolutely works! So if you still have a PS3/Vita but you want to play PS1 games on PS4 in order to utilise the new features, I recommend buying them on PS3/Vita so you can save yourself some money.
Just picked up ONE PIECE World Seeker Deluxe Edition on the store. I know absolutely nothing about the ip nor the game but £3.99 reduced from £77.99 was just a no brainier.
Just preordered God of War Ragnarok. Wasn't planning on getting it at launch but I mean, it's God of War. I need to play it. Hopefully my PS4 doesn't die from playing this game.
I also feel like November/December 2022 is going to be another February/March 2017 for me in terms of game releases. So many great games are coming out. I doubt I'll have the time to play through all of them but I at least want to experience them on day one.

I know nothing about it either... So I just did a quick search, noted a couple of review scores and read the first paragraph of the review on this site... Seems at that price you may have been ripped off!

Just bought SIFU: Vengeance Edition for €30. I've had my eyes on this one for a while and for €30, I felt like now was the time to get it. Seems like an interesting game and I'm always on the lookout for unique experiences. Hopefully it'll be fun!

@RogerRoger I'd done a pretty good job of not adding to my PS4 backlog, and had told myself I'd completely freeze purchases on the platform until I worked through the games I already own on it, but that pretty much went out the window as soon as I saw GoT + DLC for $20. I needed another game to get the free shipping, so decided to finally stop being obstinate about Spider-Man. I was planning on eventually getting it on PC for the superior performance, but, being honest with myself, I probably care more about collecting the trophies for it than 60fps, so here we are.
TLOU Part II was $10, which almost tempted me, but I just know it'd sit unplayed on a shelf forever, because I really have almost no desire to play it.
