The best Destiny haters are the ones with 15 days total playtime across three guardians.
I still think the moment to moment gunplay, design and music is still really good. My only beef is the grinding for hours/days for loot only for it to get nerfed.
I actually think this is a really good thing with all this talk of spoilers. When Uncharted 4 was realesed I woke up the next morning to have the living room scene spoilt for me before the postman had even arrived by a major gaming site. At least I don't need to go on media blackout from day one now just so I can experiance the game spoiler free.
Sounds to me like B needs to say " we cannot do it due to the fact we didn't scope or fully understand what was required proir to us going to press. We based our press announcement on assumptions rather than facts". Instead of dumping their issues on Sony's system design and why should Sony change their system that works for everyone else.
I actually don't think the games are that bad. I don't mind paying for the online service the free games are just a bonus but I suppose Sony set the expecation in the last gen on delivering big AAA games and they've miss managed the message this gen. There are also games like killzone SF where it's almost strange why the haven't been ps plus games.
So after rapture and ethan carter which I loved. I sat down to play SOMA and after about two and a half hours I just wasn't feeling it. Its by no means a bad game it just didn't click for me. So I've finally started Arkham Knight.. I'M BATMAN!
I agree it looks a lot better than the trailers and plays like a dream I'm just guessing at combos and its coming together nicely with a bit of trial and error.
I was hoping we'd get a beta I'm looking forward to trying this game again I had my head into Dark Souls for the Alpha so it will be nice to give ot a try without playing dark souls alongside it.
Its actually really hard to price this game. They were charging £40-50 for ther tomb raider remaster but then a lot of people who had been playing tomb raider since the PS1days were annoyed at square and xbox. You would think that they'd be trying to win back fans a little but then this didn't sell well so they are probably hoping to make money with the larger user base.
Oh what if the support the PS4K how would that chage peoples opinons on price?
I finished lego force awakens and everybody's gone to the rapture last night. EGTTR is by far the best walking sim I've played so far by a country mile.
Tonight I can choose between starting either SOMA or The Vanishing of Eathan Carter or finishing Gravity Rush Remastered hmmm maybe a bit of all three.
I actually think a lot of the "not enough power" points are based on a combination the vive or rift recommending 90fps for both comfort over time and to reduce things like tearing and the 30 vs 60 frame rate being a hot topic this generation.
Having said that when I played the resi 7 demo and it was like playing an up res'd verson of a PS2 game through a telescope it was inline with my expectations for playstation VR.
The scorpio not to be confused with the Xbox One S. Which brings me to my point if I was Sony I wouldn't care because they could create the greatest console ever but marketing fails everytime.
MS seems to want to merge the PC and Console markets but the two are very different and its left the xbox without exclusives and once again left console only gamers a little luke warm. Where as Sony's marketing team seem to be very in touch with console gamers so they win everytime.
I read some of the cards and did end up wondering why all the interesting details weren't in the game. If you play the taken king version of Destiny the pieces of story were strung together better which helped but you still get Bill Nightly and his "I could tell you..." bits.
GTA V online I just earning some cash for the crazy trackmania style update next week but the load times are killing me! I'm also playing Gravity Rush Remastered which is a truly great game.
I just picked up Gravity Rush Remastered in the sale and I didn't expect it to be this good. Its a really charming game with some cool game mechanics I regret ignoring the praise this game gets for so long.
I really like Romance of the three kingdoms I still play one of the SNES ROTTK game.I will be picking this up once I've beat a few games on the backlog.
Thats very good news I enjoyed limbo and wpuld very much like to play it. Right now its only 3 indies games that make me want to buy a xbone so its really not worth it for me to get one.
This weekend I will be mostly playing... Lego Star Wars the Force Awakens. I'm actually shocked how good Lego games have got I haven't played in years.

Its just really poor change management.
Re: Playdead's Inside Steps Outside on PS4 This Month
Yeah agreed, I can stomach a couple of months delay between consoles.
Re: The Time Has Come for PlayStation VR Sizzle Trailers
I do find it odd that Sony markets games well but when it comes to hardware we get this.
Re: Feature: Here's What You Do in No Man's Sky on PS4
If you come across a planet where everything is named using the names from Bart Simpson's prank phone calls. That was me!
Re: Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Ex Emerges on Amazon
Different box art and a free gambling token is my best guess.
Re: People Really Aren't Happy with August's PlayStation Plus Games
ABUSE AT SONY! Am I doing it right?

Re: 'The Future Is Bright' for Destiny, Says Bungie
I want Bungie to make me care about Destiny again but right now I don't. Hopefully rise of iron will be good.
Re: Talking Point: What August PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
Assasins Creed Unity would be good because thats when I stopped playing the AC games and it may give the bug again.
Re: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare PS4 Gameplay Keeps Its Boots on the Ground
This game looks better with every video and their section in E3 was great. I've changed my mind I want to get this game they've won me over.
Re: Hands On: Is King of Fighters XIV on PS4 Worthy of Its Royal Title?
I agree it looks a lot better than the trailers and plays like a dream I'm just guessing at combos and its coming together nicely with a bit of trial and error.
Re: Video: We've Found PS4's Dumbest Game to Date
Wow the hiding behind cover and leaning out light gun game mechanic has never looked so creepy.

Re: Samurai Action RPG Nioh Makes a Return to PS4 for a Limited Time Next Month

Re: Poll: Will You Pay Full Price for Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS4?
After all the talk of the game being optimised for xbox with xbox devs at SQ. I'd expect a R&C price point
Re: Review: Ghostbusters (PS4)
So instead getting a follow up to the really good ghostbusters game. We get a follow up rubbish psn gane and get to pay the full retail price for it.
Re: The Original Dead Rising Is Coming to PS4
Played this a lot when it first came out its a cool as it is odd. So much replayability due to the timed events.
Re: Rumour: Lara Croft's Rise of the Tomb Raider Rushes PS4 on 11th October
Its actually really hard to price this game.

Oh what if the support the PS4K how would that chage peoples opinons on price?
Re: Try The King of Fighters XIV for Free on PS4 Next Week
I tend to find I either like the basic controls of a fighting game or hate them so demos are always welcome when it comes to fighting games.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 126
I finished lego force awakens and everybody's gone to the rapture last night. EGTTR is by far the best walking sim I've played so far by a country mile.
Tonight I can choose between starting either SOMA or The Vanishing of Eathan Carter or finishing Gravity Rush Remastered hmmm maybe a bit of all three.
Re: Street Fighter V Wants Your Cash for Capcom Pro Tour 2016
Well at least it wasn't on the disc this time so they didn't go "full Capcom".
Re: Video: Is the PS4 Powerful Enough for Virtual Reality?
I actually think a lot of the "not enough power" points are based on a combination the vive or rift recommending 90fps for both comfort over time and to reduce things like tearing and the 30 vs 60 frame rate being a hot topic this generation.

Re: Talking Point: Is Sony Scared of Xbox's Scorpio?
The scorpio not to be confused with the Xbox One S. Which brings me to my point if I was Sony I wouldn't care because they could create the greatest console ever but marketing fails everytime.
MS seems to want to merge the PC and Console markets but the two are very different and its left the xbox without exclusives and once again left console only gamers a little luke warm. Where as Sony's marketing team seem to be very in touch with console gamers so they win everytime.
Re: No Man's Sky Video Series Aims to Answer Old Questions
That was the best video they've released so far. Its looking really good.
Re: Soapbox: Destiny's Grimoire Cards Are Pretty Awesome
I read some of the cards and did end up wondering why all the interesting details weren't in the game. If you play the taken king version of Destiny the pieces of story were strung together better which helped but you still get Bill Nightly and his "I could tell you..." bits.
