I put several hours into this game, and I'm ridiculously disappointed. The frame rate leaves a lot to be desired, the resources and crafting feel a little bit uninspired (though there's clearly a lot of potential there), and the visuals look like an upscaled Wii game.

Now obviously this is just my opinion, and I know that it's an unpopular one among PS4 gamers, but I, personally, am disappointed with the game. I'm glad that so many people are having so much fun with it, though; more power to you!

Nadine and Cassie were fantastic (and I REALLY hope they continue the series with Cassie). Screw those sexist jerks; I'm glad to see strong female characters become more prevalent in gaming.

I loved the first game, so I pre-ordered this one. Plan to play through it once I finish Doom and Uncharted 4.

If it's a separate disc, I'll get the legacy edition. If it's not, then I'll just get the standard edition of the new game (if I get it at all).

It's not Nintendo that's done that but these dime-a-dozen indie developers. I'm completely sick of 8/16-bit style 2D games. They're ridiculously oversaturated. What we need more of, IMO, are good, solid 1080p60 2D platformers.

Is there any point in getting a new PS4 if your TV can only support 1080p?

This upgraded PS4 is a terrible idea just like the New 3DS was for Nintendo. It's one thing to add minor improvements - adding an ethernet port to the Xbox 360 or making it smaller and more reliable. Adding significant horsepower that will (most likely) lead to games playing like rubbish on the original PS4 and only decently on the "PS4K" (Hyrule Warriors Legends, for example) is completely wrong, though.

This "leak" just took the things that would be almost mandatory for an "upgraded" version of the console. Like, seriously, anyone could guess "4K Blu-ray and slightly stronger hardware."

I think a slightly enhanced PS4 Slim is the most likely. Honestly, though, I wish we'd worry less about 4K and more about 60 fps.

I have to disagree about the "top notch story missions." I found the story to be exceptionally disjointed. Individual missions' stories are interesting, but the overarching story just feels haphazard to me.

I mean, I'd take 1% even because that's more than I get now, but I'd like 50%. Definitely at least 25%.

I can't stand Ubisoft. It hurts my soul that The Division looks so interesting; I really hate giving those Frenchmen money.

This is my eternal struggle, especially since I'm as much a collector as I am a gamer. I know I SHOULDN'T feel like this, but I do. I've gotten a lot better about it recently. I buy a LOT of games, some of which I may never actually play, to put in my collection, but I've started making myself focus on games that I enjoy. If I don't like it, just put it back on the shelf and don't worry about it. If I never get around to it because other games come out that I'd rather play, oh well; maybe I'll eventually get to it. It's hard, though, especially when you have clinical anxiety and obsessive compulsive issues working against you.

I am SO hyped about this. I'm eagerly awaiting the delivery of my preorder when it drops.

"A rushed game is forever bad, but a delayed game is eventually good."

It would be nice if we could get a Battlefield or Call of Duty that didn't involve terrorists.

The Last of Us

This review is heresy. Nep is love; Nep is life.

Seriously, though, the game is 90% fan service and always has been; it's hardly fair to criticize it for doing EXACTLY what it sets out to do. That would be like saying "Man, Resident Evil would be so much better if it just didn't have zombies."

I've got the HD remake pre-ordered. Is there any concrete word on localization for this one? I'll definitely wait for the review if it's getting localized; like most, the look of the gameplay makes me uneasy.

It looks good, and I'll give it a download whenever it goes on sale, but I doubt it will impress me given the near-masterpiece that was Yoshi's Woolly World.

Anyone who believed that it would have any compatibility with Playstation or Xbox is an idiot. Nintendo is the only of the Big Three with hardware that can survive on first party titles alone. The Wii U hasn't been a big money maker, but they broke even on it over a year and a half ago; they wouldn't do something desperate like this when they're not desperate yet.

The game itself may be good, but this horribly whitewashes the Bosnian War. This is basically a zombie survival game with the Siege of Sarajevo slapped over top of it. It does a disservice to the most significant military conflict of the 1990s and what is arguably the worst genocide since the Holocaust.

Screw all that - THERE'S NEW NEP-NEP COMING.

HOW DID I MISS THAT THIS GAME EXISTED?!? Kung Fury is pretty much my favorite movie. The fact that I was unaware of this game makes me extremely disappointed in myself.

I was willing to pay up to $500 for Oculus, but not $600 plus shipping. For Playstation VR, because of the lower specs, I'll be willing to pay up to $400. VR is super cool, and I know the first generation stuff is going to be expensive, but for lower specs and less versatility (PC compatibility with Oculus opens a lot more options long-term than a PS4-only VR headset), I'll expect a lower price point.

Infinity Ward has never impressed me with their entries. Ghosts was okay - if nothing else, the storytelling and setting context was better explained than the Modern Warfare series (and I'm a story-driven gamer), but honestly, Infinity Ward hasn't really impressed me with a Call of Duty game since Call of Duty 2 ten years ago.

That's why I always prefer Playstation over Microsoft, but in terms of taking creative risks, Nintendo will always be the king.

I agree with you, Sammy, that the Share button is the greatest innovation of this generation in terms of utilization, but if we're talking potential - even missed or rarely used potential - I'd have to say the Wii U gamepad. It hardly ever got used well, but the few times it did, it really shined: ZombiU, NintendoLand, and even the relatively minimal use in Xenoblade Chronicles made the experience feel just a little more unique.

For actual utilization, though? You're spot on with the Share button. I only wish that the touch pad on the Dual Shock 4, the touch screen on the Wii U gamepad, and the touch pad on the back of the Vita had been properly utilized. The enhanced Kinect, too, but I never had a whole lot of hope for Kinect if we're being honest. This had the potential to a generation of amazing innovations, but it was a huge missed opportunity.

EDF! EDF! EDF!

@kyleforrester87
How much extra would it be to import it? I don't know about going your way, but it only costs me around $10 extra to import a game from the UK (which I did for Zombie Army Trilogy and Wolfenstein: The Old Blood).

EDF! EDF! EDF!

This is one of my favorite series BECAUSE it's so stupid and embraces it. The god awful framerate is actually charming for me and my friends (even if annoying at time), but I'll be looking forward to playing this (I've had it since Tuesday, but I'm waiting for a college buddy to visit on Saturday to actually start playing it).

@get2sammyb YES TOTALLY BUYING THAT. This is why you're the best PushSquare writer, Sammy.

I LOVED this game on PS3 - preordered the collector's edition. I won't be picking it up for PS4 unless there's a physical release, but for QuanticDreams' style, it's a great release.

Why? I loved it on Wii U, but it just felt empty on Xbox One (I haven't played it on PS4, but I imagine it's the same game). It was built for the Wii U's gamepad, and it worked well with it. Why are they giving a gutted port into which they put half-hearted effort with minimal enhancements on a disc now? Did it actually sell well digitally?

Either Europe or America pleeeease. And I wish they'd put the PSP games on PSN.

Real talk, though, I'm calling in sick tomorrow.

@Neolit
Ah, I stand corrected then. I was always under the impression that it sold poorly since I hardly ever saw software developed for it. Thanks for correcting me.

They'll have a hard time selling this, I think. Playstation Move and the Xbox 360 Kinect didn't do especially well, and I think Playstation VR will do about the same with sales - okay but not great. I, however, plan to pre-order as soon as I can.

@sonicmeerkat
No, it's just the end of its life span. The NES had a 6 year life span; the SNES had a 5 year life span; the N64 had a 5 year life span; the Gamecube had a 5 year life span; the Wii had a 6 year life span; and if they've said that they're announcing the NX in 2016, that means it will be a 2017 release, giving the Wii U a 5 year life span. It might feel short since the Wii U released a year before the PS4 and the Xbox One, but it's actually exactly on par with the console release pattern that Nintendo has always followed.

(Note that I was basing on North American release dates; the NES and SNES were staggered in terms of releasing across the globe).

@sonicmeerkat
I spent the whole video thinking "Black Ops 3 on Xbox One looks exactly like Black Ops 2 on Wii U...."

I'm a pretty big fan of WayForward - I love the entire Shante and Mighty Switch Force series as well as Duck Tales Remastered - but this one does look abysmal. I've noticed that for the most part, their original titles are pretty good, but they're terrible at licensed games.

jadfaj;sldkfjapweiourashd;kjg my hype train just broke the sound barrier

I picked this up yesterday and played a few hours last night. The game is FANTASTIC. The voice actors used aren't the most talented in the industry, but the gameplay is great, and it's MORE than worth the asking price.

A game is like a relationship; a pretty face is great and all, but if there's no substance, it won't last. Graphics are great or whatever, but there's nothing that makes it stand out. They stripped out the campaign and just put a Star Wars skin on a Battlefield game. It's just another run-of-the-mill shooter now. I might pick it up used after the price falls, but I definitely won't be paying full price for this.

It's not awful, but seriously, with a company that has as much experience as Sony, there's no reasons for these updates to be such mixed bags.

Resident Evil has never been a strong multiplayer experience. This had better have a single player campaign.

I'm not just sad; I'm pissed. I mean, I understand it to a certain extent since it's not DC, but still, I'd have like to hear him in some role, even if it's not Three Dog.

I absolutely loved Deadpool, but $50 is too much. $30 max.

@glassmusic
No. It's Ubisoft's typically sloppy launch-title graphics.

I LOVED ZombiU and picked it up on launch day along with my Wii U. While the game is a lot of fun, this does look like an extremely sloppy port. From what I've seen in comparison videos, the graphics are pretty much identical (while I have no problems with the Wii U's graphical abilities, it was a launch title that's been ported to a MUCH more powerful console after 3 years; they shouldn't look the same). Add to that the loss of the second screen which, in my opinion, made the game stand out from the crowd and added a great, unique charm to it; as well as the local multiplayer - arguably the best part of the game in terms of replay value - and I'm left asking "What's the point?"

Don't get me wrong, for those who only have a PS4 or an Xbox One, I'm glad they get to the play the game, but the Wii U is definitely going to shine through as the best console to play this on. Hardware superiority or not, the game was designed specifically for Wii U; a sloppy port to another system can't top the original.
