Rise of the Ronin - just got to Edo, I'm really enjoying this, love being able to counter-spark (parry) and murder my enemies, so fun!
Star Ocean 2nd Story R - pretty far in this, home-screen says I'm at 75% of the story, its good fun as well.
Alan Wake 2 - restarted a new game as I never finished my 1st playthrough back in November. Just got thru Coffee World. Man, what a soundtrack!

Stasis: Bone Totem - pretty interesting game so far, kinda bummed out that it doesn't have a Plat trophy though.
Sinking City - on the last mission now, did all the side quests so I'm ready to finish this.
I got the plat for Taxi Life over the week so I needed a new game to play while I listen to music and No Man's Sky is doing nicely.

The Sinking City - I got this pretty cheap and it's decent. At first I wasn't sure but it grew on me and now I want to finish it. I like how you find locations by searching through the city archives instead of it beings handed to you. And discovering that loot respawns took away any ammo concerns.
Taxi Life - got patched a few days ago and those pauses that happened are gone and fewer cars are ramming into me, gonna get that Plat!
Lies of P - enjoying this more now that I've got other games to play when I get frustrated with a boss.

The ps app says I've been playing this for 18 hours so far and I have to agree 100% with all the problems listed here. The pedestrians are the worst. If a car is blocking the crosswalk when they try to cross, oh boy. I had 8 npcs bumping into the car and themselves, forcing them to cross back and retry again. That being said, I still like it, it's become my game to play while i listen to music. I can only hope it gets patched soon.

Taxi Life - I like it, driving within the rules can be fun sometimes. Yeah it's got its share of jank but nothing a patch or 2 couldn't fix. Sometimes I can't tell if the traffic jam was supposed to happen or if the AI is having a meltdown. It stutters sometimes and once, after I picked up a client, something rammed my car so hard that it flipped over on its roof, while the passenger yelled about "something big" on the windshield.
And some more Stalker, so happy to be playing this again!
