I'll still buy all the big games on PS4 and play them as much as I normally do. What it will mean now though is when 'indie' games come out on both, I'll buy on Switch.
Smart move. To be fair I see many who are buying a Switch will probably own a PS4 or just be a Nintendo only person anyway. At least it'll be like this until holiday time anyway. I've got my Switch tomorrow, but then I've got a PS4, a PS4 Pro and an Xbox one S, along with Wii U and 2 3ds's, I'm not exactly a tough market for them to crack!
Awesome, I traded in tearaway so I'm happy to be able to maybe go back to some time. Nice game. Disk Jam Beta has been fun and definitely smart move trying to Rocket League this.
I didn't mind it. Was different definitely, but it didn't bother me. Very weird if it's changed massively as anyone who really cared has probably experienced the way it is!
Great balanced review. Personally been enjoying the game. I try not to play for more than a few hours as I definitely feel the repetitiveness set in. To me this is a great second game to have to chill to and just create your own stories in. Hearing people strand themselves with broken ships etc on hostile lands whilst must be frustrating it's things like that that make this game unique to me. Alternating this with Hyper Light Drifter and that's working well for good gaming sessions.
Going to give it a try, got for £35 and if I don't get on I'll still get a week out of it and likely get the same back at CEX, this is how I like to try out most games.
I've never bought a CoD and I'm now getting tempted. Doom got my excited for 1st person campaigns, something I've rarely given a chance. Always enjoyed playing at/with friends, but really much more into single player campaigns now so the idea of finally playing MW and this genuinely looking good may get a buy from me.
No, I am happy to pay a premium for getting something near release, like spending a lot seeing a film at the cinema, but once times gone by I can't get hyped so I'll happily wait to buy at half price.
Great pacing and I needed that as I watched at 2am in bed on my phone! Owed a lot to Nintendo directs in just being about the games, not having Dev diaries was great, they can come later. Very Naughty Dog, but as someone who got into PlayStation because of modern ND games, this is great. Never thought I'd care for GoW, but that intro worked for me. Great job.

Definite overkill. I struggled this month but had to get Doom/Uncharted/Overwatch, 3 great games. Those all have different hooks though, these feel very similar to me.
Awesome. Haven't played a basketball game in years and still haven't played Gone Home. Was hoping for the ex Criterion Golf game, ah well, if it's good fun I'll pay for it! Back to Doom and Overwatch.
Only played it a few times. It was definitely fun, but having Overwatch now means my multiplayer commitments are elsewhere. Great single player though, of course!!
Well I like the game. Yeah not all the humour is great, but that's why games work, if the mechanics are fun then you can look past it, films, not so much!
Star Fox Zero and Ratchet and Clank... It's like my childhood all over again. In gaming related news I'm currently queueing to get to Wembley... Not for FA Cup, but for the Zelda Orchestra!
At Vicar Amelia in Bloodborne... After breezing the witch boss I'm now on a tougher challenge. As my first souls game, I'm loving it. and hating it, of course! May fire up Battleborne, given the negativity getting on I here, imagine that won't last long.
The industry is maturing and certainly has to be sensitive to many more things now it is more mainstream. Developers are making these decisions more often and I can understand why.

Dishonored and Axiom Verge. Then the onslaught begins!!

Re: The Original Dead Rising Is Coming to PS4
Ah cool, I had this with my short love affair with the 360 (3x3Red Lights ended my Xbox days!), had a lot of fun with it, might be tempted in again.
Re: Street Fighter V Wants Your Cash for Capcom Pro Tour 2016
I bought Ryu amiibo for £4 off Amazon today, I've done my bit for Capcom; every little helps.
Re: Talking Point: Will No Man's Sky Live Up to the Hype on PS4?
It can't live up to the extreme hype, but I think it may be a good game, just hope it doesn't struggle performance wise. I'll probably give it a try!
Re: For the Love of Gaming Just Announce the BioShock PS4 Collection Already
Never played so I'd be tempted.

Re: Unlock Bonus Relics in Uncharted 4 Multiplayer This Weekend
Only played it a few times. It was definitely fun, but having Overwatch now means my multiplayer commitments are elsewhere. Great single player though, of course!!

I got the disc an update all installed... Wish they'd start a day early!

Away from home so I'm playing Steamworld Heist on Elite in celebration of the new dlc.
Re: Film Critics Aren't Being Kind to the Ratchet & Clank Movie
Well I like the game. Yeah not all the humour is great, but that's why games work, if the mechanics are fun then you can look past it, films, not so much!

Re: The Mirror's Edge Catalyst Closed Beta Sprints to PS4 Next Week
Smashing conversation. I don't want to try and have a crack at any of these puns.

Bloodborne and Clash Royale! First time I've played a Souls game and I'm 2 bosses down in a week, I'll take it!
Re: Your Free PlayStation Plus Games Are Available Now
@sinalefa maybe ignore that, looking at the download (did so off my phone) it says only accessible on ps vita... Yet says ps4... Confusing!
