I'd love to change mine ive had it since 2009 and I'm not the same person now I was then...and my username sucks a lot more than I used to think it did. I'd certainly be willing to pay a reasonable fee to be able to change it...as others have said, a fee being in place would possibly handle trolls changing their ID reguarly. There could also maybe be a limit of only being able to alter the username once a month, or every six months...maybe even having to stick with the new name for a year after it changes.
I didn't have any issue after the patch but only played an hour or so and then saved...no idea if that save worked or not. I'll likely just not play again until the issue is sorted.
The whole of the Eurogamer review is a bit harsher than that extract...but they did go on to still give it 8/10. That said the main issue was this game having a far lighter and minimal solo story than Farcry 3 to make way for its co-op mode, so score is subjective to how important the story is to you...I loved the last game because of its deeper story, loved the immersion. This was a definite buy for me that I had been waiting for since FC3 wowed me after it came onto PS+ . Now I'm not so sure as I'm really not a social gamer....it depends if the solo campaign has been reduced to the scale of something like CoD or Battlefield, just a sideshow to the main event of multi player.
@Bad-MuthaAdebis I've heard the PC is shocking. Unity seems similar to Skyrim on PS3...not everyone is seeing the glitches and bugs and some are luckily experiencing a far less broken adventure.
Performing the same repetitive tasks in the hope of better gear? #soundslikeDestiny.
Another game releasing that feels unfinished isn't great, particularly in the aftermath of the AC: Unity launch.
I'll stick with Dead Nation for my zombie murdering needs...I've played thru it at least half a dozen times but it still feels more appealing than giving this game a shot.
If the game is ever finished I may get it but honestly the new combat system doesn't appeal to me...the old system might have made me feel over powered to an extent but it was meant to be a living weapon of death against standard troops so it only felt right to be able to cut down enemies with relative ease...I also liked the flow and rhythm of the fights, and counter striking/fighting is a real and important component of combat. It might not fit the stealthy approach the game is pushing for...but if things did go wrong in past games and the sneaking didn't work out I could at least go out with a bang...assassination failed but a huddle of dead guards in my wake and living to fight another day.
I think I might just stay clear of Unity, I've been indifferent to the games other than AC2 and Black flag. There are other games coming out soon I'd rather buy. Far Cry 4 and Dragon Age: Inquisition will fill my time nicely, as long as they release without major issues.
An honest and well written review that doesn't pander to the publisher by pointing out flaws but then sticking an inexplicably high score on the end of it.
@JaxonH lol that's fine...I was just clarifying that it isn't meant to be a like the bible story, it just shares some themes in common. It's an odd game with strange reasons for existing...your clarifying of the story it's named for isnt a bad thing, and provides context for anyone unfamiliar with it.
@JaxonH It's not supposed to be just based on scripture it's also biographical and based on the creators dysfunctional and abusive childhood...which involved his family being ex junkie religious nuts, that accounts for the pills in the game and the biblical connections.
I played a Jack the Ripper themed hidden object puzzle game on...the PS3? Possibly the iPad...whatever the hardware involved it was a sucky unsatisfying affair. There are far better things on the PS store for me to spend my money on.
I already have Sky, netflix and whatever LoveFilm is called these days...as well as the access to BBC Iplayer etc like everyone else with a PS3/PS4 in the UK..I doubt I need Playstation Vue in my life as well.
I'm staying well clear of the game for now...I'm not paying to be a beta tester on a 'finished' game.
I'm also very wary of games that release with restrictions on reviews having to be delayed until after the launch...it increasingly reeks of having things to hide and consumers to dupe.
So while it's been widely reported that Unity is a broken, but still enjoyable, mess, I'm curious as to the status of the new PS3 assassins creed game? Is that a mess as well?
I was playing the game last night and I think the patch had installed...I had no issues greater than not getting the controls right and setting off flares by mistake....oh and getting evicerated by the Xeno repeatedly.
I think I'll leave the game aside until the issue with the patch has been sorted, just incase it effects me.
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is a decent price in the sale...Thief goes for £20 in many stores these days so the sale price a bit high. The Whistle Blower DLC for Outlast is a bargain at the sale price as it adds a sizeable and enjoyable chunk of gameplay to the main game. There are some really good deals on the list...I'm going to have to give some of them some serious consideration.
I love the grim dark and dirty styling of the game. I found it quite punishing the first few times I played it. However once I got a play through that gifted me with some more interesting and damaging power ups I got into it...it's hard not to enjoy being a cursed floating wraith being that has a constantly laser beaming eye with infinite range and bombs that home in on enemies, all the while being orbited by a little...imp...thing that aggressively defended me. The piles of poo everywhere are a bit weird tho.
I hoped they would use the transition to the new generation of consoles to take the time to create a game with less glitches and bugs...however those graphical issues are there and with other issues as well. They should have focused on making the game run fast and smooth and not on stuffing the streets with so many NPCS/puppets. I've found assassins creed to be dissapointing since the 2nd game...Revelations and Brotherhood took what I loved in 2 and stretched out thin. 3 was forgettable. Black Flag was, I felt, a lot better and getting back to how the games should be...lacking Desmond and his daddy issues was certainly a good move. I would like to know how the time out of the Animus is handled in the one...is it still the FP office based style of Black Flag? I really quite liked that.
Hugely anticipated game with quite big flaws pointed out during the review process....yet the game still nets 8/10 scores and higher....pretty much like Destiny. I'll read the complete reviews in detail on here and else where and hear gamer feed back on what the game is like before I decide if I'm going to buy this.
@drpepperdude100 Holding the power button in didn't do anything for mine when it locked up/shut down. Sadly there have been various PS4 users that were left with no other option but to unplug. Mine was sorted by 2.01 tho.
I got hit with the rest mode issue once...had to unplug the PS4 at the wall as nothing else would work. Since update 2.01 it seems to be working just fine again.
@Bad-MuthaAdebis I got the Ripley Edition at game as well...funny they were selling the Nostromo edition with less bonus content for the same price. It's a bargain at £24.99.
I got Alien: Isolation for the fantastic and princely sum of £24.99 this weekend and I'm just starting it now...excellent price for a well reviewed game from a franchise I love...well Alien and Aliens, I'm indifferent to the rest.
I never played the Walking Dead games...and I never tried this series either, but I love the series of comics it's based on...since I missed The Wolf Among Us on PS3 I might pick it up on PS4...maybe not, depends how irritating the technical hiccups are.
There is too much focus on frame rate and image quality comparisons....if the game just does everything it's meant to do and looks as good as it did in features and trailers I'll be happy....especially after it was delayed. No Watchdogs alike murky graphics...or Being like Destiny and being a jumbled and chopped down version of what it was meant to be. After the lacklustre but still fun Arkham: Origins I need a solid fix of Batman goodness.
While Watchdogs wasn't what it could be and Destiny certainly bore a questionable resemblance to the game it was meant to be, they were on multiple platforms whereas DriveClub is a cross for Sony alone to bear and a disaster of far greater proportions....as the article states, at least the other games mentioned were playable as intended.
The only recent game I can think of that was released in a simarly broken state is Aliens: Colonial Marines...but even then it still 'worked'. It might be better to compare it to the abomination that was Basement crawl...but that was an indie title not a super anticipated AAA exclusive. DriveClub really must be causing almighty ructions through Sony at the minute....it's almost at the point that it would be kinder to just shoot it and end its suffering.
@Bad-MuthaAdebis I do feel for the plight of Vita owners...a very solid and attractive piece of hardware with a lack of quality AAA content to play on it. I guess that won't improve as from what I've seen Sony seem to be stepping away from the Vita.
I'm all for indie games...I love them and there inventiveness. However even I, a forthright advocate of such games, am quite sick of puzzle platformers....I had my fill of them back when I played the likes of Thomas was Alone and Braid, and they had compelling narratives as well as problem solving. I'm still a lover of indies, but I can see why others are sick of seeing them, especially during the time when it's felt like there has been a lack of bigger titles, release dates being put back and remasters of old gen games filling the space where big AAA releases should have been. Hopefully big games releasing imminently will make it feel like playing indie titles is an option rather than the default.
I just found out Alien: Isolation is only £24.99 on PS4 this weekend at Game here in the UK...I don't know how long that price will last but I'm certainly heading to my nearest store in the morning.
I gave Binding of Isaac a shot, it was fun but it's also quite punishing...not as good as I thought it might be.
I'm considering having another shot at a play through of Skyrim or jump into Metro 2033, I liked Last Light on the PS3...I'm at a bit of a loose end for what I feel like playing this weekend. I could maybe replay Dishonoured and try the DLC i never got to trying.
Deslin was a whiny angsty punk I'd really rather not see more of him as a game lead protagonist, I'd certainly prefer more of Fetch than him, but I'd expect the next infamous to follow his story arc.
I never played the 1st game and I never bought any of the DLC Mass Effect 3. If all the additional content is included then this could be a remaster that I could actually get behind as I found the multiplayer of the 3rd game immensely enjoyable and I rarely like social gaming. I don't even mind the way the last game ended...at least Mass Effect had a deep and engaging storyline to accompany the battling of evil alien masses, unlike another recent extraterrestrial decimating game I could mention...I just don't have time to mention why I don't have time to mention it.
I thought companies would be clamouring to make the £££ for the sale of themes on the PS4 by now and I'd have a wealth of choices available to me by now.....oh well.
@SuperCat I never felt like Dishonoured was guiding me along paths it chose. There were always options of how to tackle levels and the choices made had a greater impact on how things would play out...even to the point of the last level changing completely depending on choices made. But it was the story and the art style and the deisel punk aesthetics that had me sold on it anyway. I liked the game so much I got the DLC which I don't often do...and then never played it, which is exactly why I'd usually not buy it. I will most certainly buy the next Dishinoured game if it ever comes out.
@Godsire- I have nothing against DLC myself...it just tends to come out when I've moved on from the game it's for and don't get around to playing it. I bought DLC for Dishonoured, Skyrim and Mass Effect 3 among others but just never got to playing it.
DLC that is well presented and thought out can expand a games world, fill in story details, give new perspectives or even just give more of what was good about the game.
In the case of Destiny it feels too much like content from the main game was hacked out of it to be sold as an addition...as a result Destiny may be popular with some, disliked by others...but it missed out on being the truly great game it could have been. If it had been handled differently it could have been just amazing....selling over priced DLC for it just makes that sting even more.
If other publishers follow suit then one of the PS4s most anticipated features becomes redundant....Activision are rapidly becoming a company I'll avoid, after the steaming pile of shattered expectations that was Destiny and then killing share play on one of the consoles biggest releases. I've never been into CoD but maybe if I'd been able to give it a shot via Shareplay Id have gotten into it, its single player game is meant to be decent so I'd have given it a go.
Gorgeous graphics and the ability to play in first person...very impressive. If I'd known I was going to be getting a PS4 when GTAV 1st came out Id have waited until it came out on the new console. As it is I've played the PS3 version to death and I can't be doing with paying again for a title I've already bought so recently.
I like the look and art design of this game a lot, but I didn't like Dark Souls much when I played it...the crushing difficulty levels don't mesh well with my casual gaming. If Bloodborne follows a similar game/play style I don't think it will be for me.
I thought I could always do this...I remember doing something very similar on the PS3 so I could claim my free games without have to worry about clearing enough memory space for them right away.
I've always been happy with the indie games on PS4 but 1st Light and Injustice will do as well...I was never fussed about the former as I'd already had my fill of infamous when the DLC came out, but I'll give it a shot. I'm not into fighting games, but I am into Batman so I'll have a reason to pop into the latter.
I'm fine with the PS4 PS+ offerings...PS3 games still suck...oh well. Duke Nukem is a very unexpected surprise...id be interested if I hadn't recently bought a version of it for the iPad/iPhone.

I thought I could always do this...I remember doing something very similar on the PS3 so I could claim my free games without have to worry about clearing enough memory space for them right away.
Re: Still Not Sure About Dragon Age: Inquisition? Make a Choice With This New Trailer
I didn't like Dragon Age: Origins and I'm told DA2 was poor...but I'm very excited for this game, it just looks awesome.
Re: Injustice, inFAMOUS: First Light, and More Coming Soon to PlayStation Plus on PS4
I've always been happy with the indie games on PS4 but 1st Light and Injustice will do as well...I was never fussed about the former as I'd already had my fill of infamous when the DLC came out, but I'll give it a shot. I'm not into fighting games, but I am into Batman so I'll have a reason to pop into the latter.
Re: Store Update: 5th November 2014 (Europe)
I'm fine with the PS4 PS+ offerings...PS3 games still suck...oh well. Duke Nukem is a very unexpected surprise...id be interested if I hadn't recently bought a version of it for the iPad/iPhone.
