I believe it's a great footie game and it feels great to play, and I appreciate some of the additions that were listed sound good, but I still can't get around a few things with PES. I've known PES for a long time and I bought both PES 2014 and 2015, but I switched back to FIFA with FIFA 16. The lack of authenticity, boring commentary, clunky player animations and difficult learning curve can all get a little irritating in PES, all of these problems being solved in FIFA - along with a more effective atmosphere in matches being created.
Rumble Mode is brilliant, some hilarious things happen on it. The fun just keeps on coming with Rocket League — and I can finally make my car green! Such a mundane addition has never been so exciting.
Playing Rocket League and FIFA 16 as always, but with a healthy dosage of Dark Souls II and Star Wars Battlefront. Particularly Rocket League at the moment because I'm loving the new update and Rumble Mode.
Not going to get a Slim or a Pro, I only got my PS4 this March and I'm not bothered at all with getting new hardware, partly because it's too much money, partly because I just don't need an upgrade.
Oooh that's good. I'm gonna try it out. The character designs and it's whole shtick looks a little grating but it looks like the gameplay is good enough to outweigh that - would be nice to see if it does before splashing the cash on the full game though, so this is good news.
Gameplay looks fun but the character design and voice acting sickens me to the very core. I can't cope with the furriness of the whole thing, I just can't. This is coming from a Sonic fan, but at least the character designs are better on that than they are on Freedom Planet.
Lords of the Fallen looks intimidating but Journey and Badland look worth downloading - I'll definitely download Journey at least, been kinda wanting to play that for a while.
I wouldn't download Knack if it was on there, honestly not at all bothered. If Hyper Light Drifter, Enter the Gungeon or Super Meat Boy appear on there I will download it in an instant.
Tricky Towers looks fun enough and brings attention back to the puzzle game, so I'll download that. Other than that, none are for me. Yakuza 5 is good but I can't be bothered to re-plug my PS3 in to play it.
Looks good. I do still worry that the game could be slightly empty in such a massive world and the sound design won't be exciting, but we'll see — and how much does sound design (open italics) really (close italics) matter?
Tricky Towers looks pretty neat. I'm glad to see the puzzle game get a spot on the big-ish stage again. To be honest, the other games announced don't look great, particularly Rebel Galaxy, but I think it's just as okay as most other months. I'm sure a lot of people along with myself would like some more AAA releases on PS Plus but I'm not unhappy with what we're getting, and I don't see the point in getting angry. They're giving us variety, at least, and people need to give Tricky Towers more of a chance. Woulda loved to see Hyper Light Drifter on there though, I think that would have been a good move.
Tricky Towers looks pretty fun, will download that. Rebel Galaxy looks bad, but I think Ultratron looks alright. Probably will only download Tricky Towers. Better than Table Top Racing: World Tour at least.

Re: Review: PES 2017: Pro Evolution Soccer (PS4)
I'm still waiting to play the FIFA 17 demo though, maybe I'll be dissuaded by it if it's bad - if so, I'll go back to PES this year.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Overwatch Is Still Unbeatable as Uncharted Stretches Its Legs
I forgot to play the free Overwatch tingaling. Derp.
I'll probably get it at some point anyway though.

Might be tempted to get this actually.
Re: Oh Dear, The Last Guardian Delayed into December on PS4
As long as it's before Christmas.
Re: Rocket League Receives New Mode in Gigantic Update
Rumble Mode is brilliant, some hilarious things happen on it. The fun just keeps on coming with Rocket League — and I can finally make my car green! Such a mundane addition has never been so exciting.

Re: The New PS4 Controller Offers More Than Just Another Lightbar
Battery life is the only important thing.
Re: You Can Download Your September PlayStation Plus Games Now
Downloaded Journey. Thought about Badland too but I dunno about downloading two at once, probably wouldn't play both.
Re: New Berserk PS4 Trailer Shows Why You Don't Mess with Nosferatu Zodd
So this one of those Dynasty Warriors-alikes? Eh. The character designs are pretty cool but I dunno if I could be bothered to get one of these games.

Noticed a few announcements on twitter but wasn't really following it.
Re: FFS EA, Are You Making a Mass Effect Trilogy Remaster or Not?
@FantasyMeister Agreed.
Re: Play Overwatch For Free on PS4 Next Week
Oooh that's good. I'm gonna try it out. The character designs and it's whole shtick looks a little grating but it looks like the gameplay is good enough to outweigh that - would be nice to see if it does before splashing the cash on the full game though, so this is good news.
Re: The Best Sonic the Hedgehog Game Freedom Planet Is Coming to PS4
Gameplay looks fun but the character design and voice acting sickens me to the very core. I can't cope with the furriness of the whole thing, I just can't. This is coming from a Sonic fan, but at least the character designs are better on that than they are on Freedom Planet.
Re: Review: Strike Vector EX (PS4)
Looks cool actually.
Re: PlayStation Plus' September Freebies Include Journey, Lords of the Fallen on PS4
Lords of the Fallen looks intimidating but Journey and Badland look worth downloading - I'll definitely download Journey at least, been kinda wanting to play that for a while.
Re: Video: One Way Trip Is the Weirdest PS4 Game Yet
I can safely say I don't want this game.
Re: Dead or Alive Xtreme 3's PlayStation VR Patch Is As Pervy As You'd Expect
Okay that's pretty terrific.
Re: PlayStation Plus Price Won't Increase in Europe
Good.

Could be interested by Nights Into Dreams at a cheap price.
Re: Leaked PS4 Slim Console Confirmed to Be Legit
What the hell's the point?
Re: Opinion: Why the Heck Is Sony Making a PS4 Slim?
I know I'm not getting one.
Re: Talking Point: What September PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
I wouldn't download Knack if it was on there, honestly not at all bothered. If Hyper Light Drifter, Enter the Gungeon or Super Meat Boy appear on there I will download it in an instant.
Re: Review: Worms W.M.D (PS4)
I can't wait to play this game, Worms is great. Really glad the old style is back!
Re: Review: The King of Fighters XIV (PS4)
Honestly as PS4 fighters go I'd rather get my hands on Tekken 7 than this.
Re: Review: Armikrog (PS4)
Looks weird.
Re: Review: No Man's Sky (PS4)
Yeah, what I thought it would be. I'll probably get this game, but I'm not hugely excited.
Re: Inside Comes Out to Playdead on 23rd August
Might get it, I know a lot of people have raved about it.
Re: Overwatch Goes for the Gold with New Olympics Update
Looks kinda crappy. Very empty and slow compared to Rocket League.
Re: Review: Batman: The Telltale Series - Episode 1: Realm of Shadows (PS4)
Telltale: same ol', same ol'.
Re: Review: Brut@l (PS4)
Looks like a really neat game, might try it out if it's cheap.
Re: Review: ABZÛ (PS4)
Journey under sea? Probably more appealing than Journey for me then.
Re: Review: Overcooked (PS4)
This game looks pretty good. I might get it if it's cheap.
Re: Review: Heart&Slash (PS4)
It looks okay, but I won't get it.
Re: No Man's Sky Maker Urges Fans to Avoid Spoilers as $1,300 Copy Leaks Online
Wow, the guy's a douche. Bet he bought it and realised it's bad.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 128
Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, Furi and Rocket League.
Re: Review: Hyper Light Drifter (PS4)
Cool! I really want this game, was kinda hoping it would come on Playstation Plus, but oh well.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with August's PlayStation Plus Games?
Tricky Towers looks fun enough and brings attention back to the puzzle game, so I'll download that. Other than that, none are for me. Yakuza 5 is good but I can't be bothered to re-plug my PS3 in to play it.
Re: No Man's Sky Gets Gritty in New PS4 Gameplay Trailer
Looks good. I do still worry that the game could be slightly empty in such a massive world and the sound design won't be exciting, but we'll see — and how much does sound design (open italics) really (close italics) matter?

Re: Oh No! Darksiders' PS4 Remaster Has the Worst Subtitle in History
Ha, that is pretty damn good.
Re: Your Free PlayStation Plus Games for August Have Been Revealed
Tricky Towers looks pretty fun, will download that. Rebel Galaxy looks bad, but I think Ultratron looks alright. Probably will only download Tricky Towers. Better than Table Top Racing: World Tour at least.
