Nice article title... I didn't get that he was supposed to be a pretty boy, and I've played them all. Maybe that's why I dislike him as a protag a la Second Son. Glad the series exists to push graphical benchmarks, tho. I always felt like TLOU used the same or similar engine as 3, so bring on a sequel that looks like this.
Stop teasing me with GT allusions! My 60 gb got YLOD #2 and it'll be weeks before I can play any of them! ($90 for a new 250 gb super slim isn't a bad trade-in, considering my 80gb still works although it's not at home right now)...
PS as a brand will survive and be what people in the future call every console, like Coke and Kleenex. I always think of that "PS9" commercial from 2001 or whenever it was, and feel better about what the world's future has to hold.
@KALofKRYPTON buying discs and digital installs are exactly the same size btw. Just happened to notice that myself and decided to not have to change discs all dayπ
Turns out my ps4 originally wasn't showing my used space accurately, but I upgraded to 1T (and put the 500gb in my ps3), and it's less than half full with all my content downloaded. I predict needing this after fallout and TES come to ps4π
@ToddlerNaruto but some of that 10 mil don't have ps4s yet. Could even be some folks with just a PSP and a Plus sub, technically. Lots of hate for ps4, lol. Kind of an unsubstantiated argument, but nobody says you have to like PlayStation. However, every smart person I know happens to like PS. π
Sellin' like the hot cakes they are. What were they hoping for, again? 5 million? I'm impressed by the 10 mil Plus subs tho, that's your proof of concept
I love when your equipped items appear in cutscenes, like Raiden pointing either the SOCOM or M9 at Olga. Funny it's a chicken, what a slap in the face lol
It's not a 10 but it is the best game? Haven't played it, but that enemy system sounds interesting. Again, surprised to see this win the big list. I chose to get DAI over this based on this site's reviews lol
Uhhhhhh..... I hated the combat. And everything else. High school emo band is right. Sorry, just surprised to see this game on any list, let alone earning gold goty.
@Flurpsel I'm way happy with it too, and it's only the first year or so. A little slack goes a long way in terms of not stressing ourselves over it, plus it'll be satisfying when they inevitably do add most of this list
@WARDIE my DS4 charges fine regardless of being on or in rest mode. It's that I used to be able to set it in rest, then plug in a DS3 and have it charge. Now it won't charge DS3s unless I turn my PS4 on and to rest again with them plugged in. Just annoying that it used to work fine π
@mitcHELLspawn uh which objectively amazing blockbuster ps4 title do you suggest? COD? Octodad? MK?.... @NicolaHayden exactly. Tech/engine demo, not necessarily the game/story demo.
I got a fat gift card for Amazon which will almost certainly be spent on PS stuff. I got myself the collectors edition guides for every Assassins Creed but the first game (1. no trophies, 2. no hardcover, 3. not necessary for me). Looks nice on the shelf
Last Xmas I got AC 1, 2, Bro, Rev, 3 and owned 4 by then too. I still can't bring myself to finish 3 and 4, let alone even start B/R! Now there are two more full games that I won't get to for ever
Lawsuits make you whole again. Hasn't got a leg to stand on. Should have gone for class action, then everyone who owns it woulda gotten a little check or like $5 Sony bucks. Now HE has to prove how it affected HIM instead of them having to survey us all and let true data affect real change. Missed opportunity to be a hero
North Korea isn't a joke right now. Neither is a political assassination carried out there by an opposing nat'l gov't. Gotta remember the countless successfully carried-out threats that were ignored. Nobody wants to deal with the real-life reaction, especially if it's just the plot of some dumb movie that caused it. ...Did anybody even wanna see this movie anyways? Who cares, good riddance
In all fairness, I bought the Arkham trilogy on disc before it was free, so they do offer games I'd buy otherwise. Tomb Raider and Metro too, I bought it on PS4, but still... to me personally, in NA, it's a good deal (frustratingly, I just happened to buy those games foolishly early, apparently)
Ps. Ps4 multiplayer!!!!
Power outage today... I'm close to platinum-ing Skyrim. Also need to get momentum in DA:I, and then let time pass in GTA5 so my stock ventures recover. So many more games in the 'log now! (Like that's a bad thing)
Very seldomly, a ps3 notification will block something I need to see on the screen. But if they paid attention to that, I think it could work just fine
I liked how Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/crystal were transparent glitter, the remakes should be too! I have a red transparent ds3, now I want a ds4 in that black plate's style
Lots of folks including myself would buy a controller by itself, too. I still have the PS Underground demo disc with MGS1, GT2, etc on it. That count as memorabilia? I just want the controller boo hoo π
That's pretty good if you haven't got one yet. Launch Day -1 I got AC4, KZ and BF4 for the buy 2 get one free promo, so I had to spend $120 to get my "free" game : P
@yakuzah that's the charm! Must race '98 Miata for $1200 prize forty times to earn Audi S4! @Bigdoggy hey, 5 and 6 are both great. Missin' out! I'm obviously excited about 7. I use controllers, tho, not wheels. I can't imagine how frustrating it'd be to buy it and have it not work
Weird. I can see June happening, but December wouldn't surprise me either. Can't wait to see how Big Boss meets Sniper Wolf and every other loose end in the storyline! Not to mention MGO! Woot
@adf86 i heard that too. Good enough for me. I know you have a pokedex essentially, too, that you scan new species into. It's a race to explore in order to eventually make it to the galactic core, where there's supposed to be something worthwhile lol

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 51
@get2sammyb yeah, where the hell was lateral strafing in the 90s?
I'd play Xenosaga Ep1 if my ps3 worked. Prolly just play Inquisition or try to finish up Black Flag at last.
