@naut That's still a lot of play, though, no? I played the original KH on PS2, but I've never played any others, and I've fallen completely behind. There is very little chance of me finding the time to play all of those games.

Really looking forward to playing this again. I think it's a deeply underrated entry in the series.

@johncalmc Well let's hope so, because that's what I'm doing!

@RenanKJ Absolutely. Customers can vote with their wallets on what's good or not.

@Splat No, not at all. All Tales games have new stories, characters, worlds, etc. Berseria is loosely related to Tales of Zestiria, but not in any really meaningful way. You can just jump in wherever you like.

When I think about the FFXV soundtrack, I can only remember about three tracks: the one when you wander around the countryside, the one at Hammerhead with its Western twang, and the one from the final sections of the game. That's it. The rest in my mind was made up of old classics from previous games played on the car stereo.

@ShogunRok I completely agree with you on this. Fantastic game. So good I even bought it again on iPad!

@antdickens Absolutely beautiful!

@lankysi If I remember right, Bethesda do tend to take a bit longer than other publishers to release "ultimate" editions. I suspect we will eventually see one, though.

@Melucine Haha! Can you blame them, really?! XD

Seriously, though, I can't wait for this game. I haven't played a Yakuza game since the PS2 and I got left behind a bit with the series. Really happy to see a prequel come out that I can get into without being bogged down.

Oh man, Legend of Dragoon was great! Feeling all nostalgic thinking about that.

@MinerWilly it's standalone, so you don't need to have played the others. That said, why not play the rest of the originals if you already have them and not played them? They're superb games.

Much deserved. Superb game.

Been meaning to play this game. Christmas is an ideal time for me to play it with my dad when I visit (if he's willing!).

@AlexStinton if it's online only, do you need PS+ to play it?

To be fair, the game is not due for a full release until Spring/Summer of 2017. There's still some time for it to improve. The game is caught between being a full release and an early access title, as it stands.

I want it all!

I'm quite enjoying this return to point and click adventure games. Yesterday Origins was really quite good, and I loved Broken Age. Shame this one didn't turn out so well because I love the art style.

@get2sammyb I know, it's really quite surreal. And then, after all this time, both games come out within weeks of each other. I feel like I'm dreaming when I put them in my PS4. There was a moment when I thought they wouldn't come at all.

@Get2sammyb Well, since I was so rudely overlooked (I joke, of course) to post my game this week, both The Last Guardian AND Final Fantasy XV will be fighting for my attention this weekend. What a time to be alive!

@Azikira Yeah, same.

@JaxonH Unfortunately not. Just PS4, Xbox One, and PC as it stands.

@Vix Fixed. Sorry about that

@Neolit @es_lion I've not had that problem. I've been deleting games and reinstalling them later on my PS4 for the last two years, and I've never lost a save file. That said, making a copy on the cloud, as @Neolit says, is definitely a good idea.

@FullbringIchigo Also, I agree, they really should give us support for external HDD. It would solve a lot of issues.

@FullbringIchigo You can uninstall and reinstall games. You won't lose your save files, they're stored separately.

Never played the Darksiders games, but I've always liked the look of them. I'll definitely pick this one up at some point!

@ApostateMage There's plenty of humour. It's definitely not an overly serious game.

@dryrain If you're into this kind of game there's plenty to like here.

Yeah, I wish more publishers would release games earlier in the year. There's been quite a few games in Q4 that I want to play like Watch Dogs 2 and Titanfall 2, but they're getting lost among all the others. There's just too many for one quarter, and not enough time to play them.

@Bliquid yes! If you like narrative driven games, then I think you'll like Life is Strange. It's a great game and an absolute steal at that price.

@Flaming_Kaiser well, it was financial suicide in the end. They went bankrupt in March 2012, and I was made redundant. They were later bought out by another company which is why they're still around today, although they're struggling.

I assume that GAME is one of the companies complaining here, considering they're not doing so well. It's funny because I used to work there and we would be putting new games on sale just 2-4 weeks after its launch. I still remember putting Forza 3 on sales for just £20 after 3 weeks on sale. That's no different to any of these Black Friday deals we're seeing. They started this a long time ago. If it's purely down to people waiting for the prices to drop, then I'm surprised it's taken people this long to cotton on.

@BAMozzy This article wasn't intended as a critique on the PS4 Pro at all, it was just an observational post based on my experiences playing through The Last of Us again in 4K. I'm not saying that graphics aren't important – I mean, I bought a PS4 Pro and a 4K HDR TV for a reason. I'm just hoping that graphics won't be the only improvements or focus at the expense of gameplay, depth, "soul", etc., moving forward. Hence in the final paragraph, "here's hoping that graphics will not be the sole focus moving forward".

@mantralux Yeah, the console actually scales back its power when it's running non-patched games on the Pro. Sony says this is to keep functionality and performance optimised across the board.

@mantralux the game has to be patched to take advantage of the extra power in the PS4 Pro. Otherwise the console scales back and plays standard PS4 games exactly the same.

@get2sammyb I just bought this Panasonic model, Sammy, and while my PS4 Pro isn't coming until tomorrow, the picture quality that I've seen so far – through watching 4K Netflix, YouTube, Amazon, and playing standard PS4 games – is stunning. Only 42ms input lag in Game mode, too, and according to reviews this remains the same even with HDR turned on. I guess I'll find out myself tomorrow!

@SnowstormX Fair enough. The store I was talking about was in Edinburgh.

@themcnoisy @Neolit People live on their phones now, even when they're outside. People are already "plugged-in" and tuned out from what's happening around them, so I'm not even sure there will be a difference with the rise of VR :/

@rjejr Yeah, I was in my local GAME store in the UK a few days ago and they had big posters outside the front door saying they had plenty of PlayStation VR stock for walk-in customers. Hopefully that's more of an indication that people don't want to buy from GAME than it is PlayStation VR not doing well!

@JaxonH try being a Mage. I also find melee combat cumbersome and unsatisfying. Casting magic feels a lot better to me.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Yeah, I think it's all the smaller side quests that made the Witcher 3 so good. The main plot wasn't really all that interesting for me. But that's what made The Witcher 3 so special: it somehow made the side quests more than just side quests – I was actually invested in them as stories in their own right, rather than doing them just to be a completionist or to level up.

@Churchy Nice

@tonyp1987 Rockstar is indeed a part of 2K's parent company, Take-Two Interactive, but they are run as a separate brand. They're not included in this statistic.

This is so exciting. Journey is still one of my favourite games of all time – perhaps not in terms of gameplay, but the experience I had playing it was incredibly memorable.

The idea that opponents will start attacking a stuffed toy instead of your party when you throw it out there is ridiculous. It look really stupid in the video above. I would rather they just kept Moogles out altogether.

@Muertoweirdo That's a good question. When the Xbox One S was released, there were reports of improved framerates in games that hadn't been updated at all; they simply performed better due to the increased power of the new console. I'm intrigued to know if this will be the case for PS4 Pro myself.

Wow, they must really be struggling right now to have to resort to this.

@GBMatthew The original is always there. This isn't a remaster, it's a whole new remake, and with a new visual style, battle system, and tone, at least both games can exist side-by-side. I don't feel like this remake will replace the original – at least it won't for me.

Love the soundtrack. Framerate aside, the game looks pretty good to me.

@WanderingBullet Yeah, I'm not a fan of Vaan either, but he wasn't really the main character of XII. I feel like, unlike the FF games that preceded it, XII was much more about the whole party and the overarching political narrative than it was about a single protagonist. Also, characters like Balthier, Fran and Basch make up for it! In terms of gameplay and battle systems, XII is my favourite FF game hands down.
