Topic: Your Latest PS4 Purchase

@Ravix Thanks for your thoughts, I've been reading a few others and everyone seems to be really positive about the game despite its bugs (hardly surprising given that it is their first title).
Let's hope that KCD2 is lurking just around the corner.

@Th3solution Yeah I think I only found out about it on Extra when I read a "These games are leaving" article but tbh it doesn't seem a game to play under the time constraints of a subscription service.

@colonelkilgore Will let you know how I get on although I think FF7 remake is next up on the backlog chopping block, however I will download the game and perhaps kill a chicken just to get an idea about how the townsfolk deal with it as they got quite upset in Skyrim, I'm still not welcome in Whiterun.

@CaptD hahaha that last bit got me, and oh, you can easily play the intro 'bad' if you like, but they may have planned for that 😁 my first run I RP'd as the character I felt he was, but there is a lot of scope for just going and doing whatever the hell you please at most points, but there are also consequences, as in life.

FF7 remake is my current main game, so snap 😁 but thinking about KCD again is making me want to pick up my cheeky theiving c*** run on the side, as I have the game permanently on the SSD just in case. It was absolutely hilarious seeing what trouble I could get in, but it is probably suited more to a second run. See how the intro goes for you, anyway 😁

@CaptD 🤣 aye Whiterun are renowned chicken-lovers tbh

Just had a nice deal on the Heavy Rain/Beyond Two Souls collection, which I’ve had my eye on for a while.

@colonelkilgore Nice, heavy rain is a very good game, a bit underrated imo...it gets a lot of stick.
Couldn't get into Two Souls, I tried a couple of times and perhaps a should try a third.

@CaptD I have a vague recollection of playing Heavy Rain through the Friday night of its PS3 release at a mates house. The only thing I can remember was having a plastic sword fight with a child and hitting **** out of him 🤣.

I’ve heard really good things about Detroit Become Human but want to hold off on playing that until I’ve played the previous Quantic Dream games. Will try and fit one in per year now to get to Detroit… in a couple of years.

@Conelkilgore Oh Beyoned Two Souls is such a nice game. I hope you get around to play it sooner rahter then later man so you can tell us what you think about it.

@oliverp I hate to disappoint buddy but it’s gonna be at least a twelve-month until I get around to it… as (and I hate to complaint about it, as it’s a great problem to have) but there are just so many frikkin games like 😅.

I actually joined this site in the hope that like-minded folk might be able to help me with managing my backlog… you’ve all unceremoniously failed btw! 🤣

@colonelkilgore That is definitely true. Before I joined Push Square, I had a very manageable gaming catalog. Now, it’s spun clean out of control. 😅

But it has most definitely exposed me to many, many games that I would have never discovered before. So it’s worth it. 😄

Well we are here for eatch ohter as well would I say.

Playstation 4 PSN store has a big 75 percent sale or whatever going on.

Trails of Cold Steel II is on sale again for 19.99 til the 29th this month
and Metal Gear Solid 1 game of the Master Collection is on sale for 14.99 or 15 bucks
Final Fantasy I PIxel for 9 bucks I think
Final Fantasy IX Remastered for 8 or 9 bucks

i already bought metal gear solid 3 a month ago when it was on sale. while it is nice that the new sale is going on til the 29th, games like Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2 and the Final Fantasy Pixel games theyre always on sale.

i should go get a PSN card from the grocery store and buy Metal Gear Solid 1 or 2 sometime this month. Heck even though Ive played Final Fantasy IX a bunch of times for my original playstation, i wouldnt mind buying it digitally for my playstation 4

@Falcon94

@AgentCooper Nice, The Talos Principle is a brilliant game, I must pick up the sequel at some point.
PS. Don't forget to ask your wife to platinum it.

In March Im buying WWE 2K24 for my Playstation 4

Finally bought Sekiro, only five years after I bought the guide book.

@CaptD I’ll be interested to hear how you take to it mate. It’s ended up one of my favourite games of all time… but during my first playthrough it just didn’t click with me. I mean I liked it well enough but not in the way I felt about Bloodborne, Dark Souls and Elden Ring.

Skip forward a couple of years and I decided to do one more playthrough for the platinum and it all fell into place. Absolutely incredible game! Hope you enjoy

@CaptD I can add to the praise, Sekiro is one of my faves too. It is a pure test of skill, as there is no co-op or grinding to make your character OP, which I know puts some people off.

It feels like a badge of honour that I managed to beat the game, as I know a few hit a brick wall along the way.

@JohnnyShoulder @colonelkilgore @LN78
Cheers guys. It turned up today and I tried it for a little bit, died at the first boss but I think I was supposed to.
Anyway don't really have time for this game ATM plus it feels like it might be more of a winter game to me. Just wanted to buy it before it becomes even more scarce...bizarrely it seems like that is the current direction. I seem to be becoming more of a collector at the moment, perhaps it is all the "adorably digital" talk that has me afraid.

@CaptD yeah I’ve been making more release date purchases than ever before recently for the same reason.

So I picked up Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster and Resident Evil 6 on the sale recently. Iam more then happy with these purchases. Think this was as a good deal.
