Re: Guide: The Best PSone Games We Want on a PlayStation Classic Mini

Jake3103

I would personally switch Final Fantasy 7 for 8 or 9 instead. I love all three, but 7 gets all the love, and you can already play it in a myriad of ways across PS4 and PS3. We still can't play 8 or 9 on PS4, though, and I would love to play through them again.

I would also add Croc or Gex 3D and Ridge Racer Type-4 or Rage Racer in here. Also, the original Colin Mcrae Rally was a big deal back on PSOne. I played it to death. In terms of its gameplay, it still holds up well today. I can see that making the cut! Otherwise this is a pretty solid list.

Re: PS4 Exclusives Unavailable for Pre-Order at Amazon UK

For anyone looking to order online, I can highly recommend The Game Collection, SimplyGames, and ShopTo for pre-orders. I've used all three for years, prices often cheaper than Amazon, and I'm yet to receive a single pre-order from any of them that hasn't come early or on day of release (must be early on 95% of occasions, though).

@get2sammyb Great review, Sammy. It must be good to get a 10 from you! Do you need to have to played the previous games to fully understand the story?

Re: Talking Point: Is PS4's September Starting to Look Way Too Crowded?

Jake3103

It's way too crowded, and made even worse by the recent announcement that Divinity Original Sin 2 is coming out just a few weeks earlier in August, as well – and that one's a good 70+ hour game. Even as a big Dragon Quest fan, and as someone who has played every Tomb Raider game ever made, I will probably be leaving both of them until 2019 at this rate. It's going to be impossible to keep up. I'm going to have to prioritise: Divinity in August and Spider-Man in September.

I've been waiting for this to come to PS4 for years, but after playing Origins, I can't see myself going back to the gameplay style of the older games. I had a go on Black Flag just the other day and was surprised at how dated it feels. We needed this sooner, really.

Re: Feature: Ni no Kuni II Combat - What's Changed and Is it Better or Worse than the First Game?

Jake3103

I'm glad they're mixing up combat with something new. One of the great things about Final Fantasy is how they alter things with each title, it keeps things fresh. I wasn't a huge fan of the combat in the original; it was the characters, writing, story, and environments that made it special to me. If they keep that same level of charm and mix up the combat, I'm a very happy bunny.

Re: Spotify App Receives a Spring Clean on PS4

Jake3103

I wonder if they've added the basic functionality of logging out? My old Spotify account was made using my Facebook account, but when I deleted my FB page, my Spotify account remained on PlayStation. I can't log out and sign in with my new Spotify account. It's very annoying.

Re: Review: Mulaka (PS4)

@Flaming_Kaiser It would be a lot better if there wasn't any combat. It's not a terrible game, it's just that it doesn't make a very good action-adventure game. If they replaced all the combat with much better puzzles, this could have been really good.

This sounds great. Nice to see developer developers up with other ways of making VR games that isn't first-person.

😂 What an image!
