05.21.16 | Also, is Overwatch worth it? |
user
05.21.16 | yes |
Snide
05.21.16 | I'm just very hesitant on FPS shooters as of late unless it's from an established franchise that I dig; will it keep me entertained for a while? I want to make sure I can play the shit out of it for the amount I'd have to spend on it. |
Calc
05.21.16 | you FINALLY decided to take the plunge and got like 20 games with it? |
Snide
05.21.16 | Yeah, I sold a lot of my ps3 collection (I basically only played five of the games in it) and was able to afford quite a few ps4 games used (only had to get two of them new) |
Calc
05.21.16 | jesus.....i have like 2 and can't think of anymore I want. |
Snide
05.21.16 | When I was younger I bought a ton of anime related PS3 titles, and turns out I was able to turn over most of them for more than what I spent on them (one of them I got like 70 bucks for) so I think it was a pretty good investment. |
Calc
05.21.16 | u got 70 bucks for a ps3 game? where'd you sell it? |
Snide
05.21.16 | A video game shop I used to work at called Play N Trade (it used to be a huge corporation but they're independently owned now), I get pretty sweet deals and he gave me 70 because he knew he could turn it around and sell it for like 120 |
Mystletainn
05.21.16 | Valkyria chronicles remastered / gravity rush remastered / devil may cry 4 remastered |
Skoop
05.21.16 | You have a lot of games already. I'm waiting on No Man's Sky, other than that the Uncharted games are good exclusives. |
Snide
05.21.16 | @Mystle: Holy shit, DMC4 was remastered on consoles too? I thought it was a PC exclusive remaster. I've never played Gravity Rush or Valkyria Chronicles, what are they like?
@Skoopy: I'm waiting for No Man's Sky too, that game's had me hyped for a while honestly. |
Sinternet
05.21.16 | Uncharted 4 and No Man's Sky pretty much |
Snide
05.21.16 | Have they finally penned a release date for it? |
Sinternet
05.21.16 | No Man's Sky? June 20th iirc, less than a month to go |
Snide
05.21.16 | Fuck yes. Also, I've been checking footage of the new Final Fantasy; are any of you gonna get it? FF13 left a bad taste in my mouth but this new one actually looks good. |
Sinternet
05.21.16 | it looks decent but i'm bracing myself to be disappointed |
Veldin
05.21.16 | damn thats a nice collection of games. Uncharted 4 and Dark Souls 3 and Fallout 4 ftw |
Veldin
05.21.16 | Also, Ratchet and Clank is too much fun. Already have 92% of the trophies >:D |
Funeralopolis
05.21.16 | only reason I need to get a ps4 is for ni no kuni 2 when it comes out |
Spec
05.21.16 | I've been playing FIFA 16 a lot lately not gonna lie. |
Sinternet
05.21.16 | oh yeah first ni no kuni ruled |
Snide
05.21.16 | @Sinternet: I'm being cautious too, but the fact that it's no longer turn based and more open world has left me with pretty high hopes.
@Veldin: I know right! Ratchet and Clank really redeemed themselves after quite a few stagnant PS3 release, is your name based off of Ratchet's home planet Veldin?
@Spec: I've never played FIFA honestly, is it worth it to jump in now?
@Funeral: What is that? |
Sinternet
05.21.16 | fifa used to be good but then ultimate team happened and it's just a ridiculous cashgrab now |
Slex
05.21.16 | get Uncharted 4 right this second |
Snide
05.21.16 | I've never played any of the Uncharted games.
I really need to stop putting that off. |
Veldin
05.21.16 | haha yeah my name is Ratchet's home planet. The PS2 games were the first franchise that I REALLY got into when I was younger (along with Insomniac's other franchise Spyro).
Jam the Uncharted Collection and then pick up Uncharted 4 when it goes on sale. Uncharted 4 is definitely of the same quality as the fantastic Last of Us |
Snide
05.22.16 | Last of Us was amazing, so I'm taking that as a good sign. |
Sinternet
05.22.16 | while i wasn't a huge fan of The Last of Us, I loved the environments and if you want god-tier graphics and environments, Uncharted 4 delivers massively. You wouldn't believe it was running on a console. |
Snide
05.22.16 | Wait, so they actually delivered on that from E3?
I'm used to companies dumbing down the graphics from E3 demos, if they actually kept that quality, I'm gonna be really damn happy. |
Sinternet
05.22.16 | yeah dude it's absolutely beautiful, the foliage man, the foliage |
Snide
05.22.16 | Fuck now I really have to get this; if it's still not disappointing four games into the franchise AND actually keeping promises from E3, I really need to stop ignoring that franchise. |
Funeralopolis
05.22.16 | "@Funeral: What is that?"
Ni No Kuni 1 was a ps3 exclusive, it shares many similarities to Pokemon in that you catch and battle monsters. It has a great sense of childlike wonder to it, and lots of great characters. You actually control the Pokemon or monsters and run around the battle field and fight, use special attacks and level up etc. it is basically the Pokemon game I've always wanted.
However Ni No Kuni had many flaws as well, awful filler content, horrible sidequests, a lot of grinding, awful allied AI and endless handholding.
However underneath its flaws lies the potential to be my favourite game of all time if not one of them if they can fix up the flaws with it. There is really something special there. |
Mystletainn
05.22.16 | Ya devil may cry 4 is on the psn for $20 I think or you can import from Japan if you want a physical copy, there's an English sub version, that's what I'm gonna do.
Valkyria chronicles is a strategy RPG set in Europe during the world war 2, it uses a beautiful cell shaded anime art style so I figured you might dig it. Great story and one of my favorite games ever.
Gravity rush is an open world action game similar to infamous, except you control gravity and fly around and shit, kill monsters help people. It's a solid game, I had a lot of fun with it.

Funeralopolis
05.22.16 | also am extremely pumped for One Piece Burning Blood as a huge One Piece fan but it also comes out on PC, but would prefer to play on console. |
Chortles
05.22.16 | been really wanting to buy one but tbh there's so much I haven't even played on PS3 yet I'll probably wait to find a good deal |
Snide
05.22.16 | @Funeral: Honestly, that sounds fantastic and I dig grinding a ton as long as the gameplay itself is fun (which it sounds like it is) so that sounds like my kinda game (considering Pokemon is my favorite game franchise of all time).
@Mystle: Gravity Rush sounds like mindless fun, but Valkyria Chronicles sounds like something I could really get into. |
Funeralopolis
05.22.16 | Yea same, I really want a ps4 but I don't actually need it. I hardly ever play video games these days and have about 50 steam games I've never even installed. I basically tell myself I can't buy a new game until I beat witcher 2 and 3, and I'm never gonna actually play them so I end up saving a lot of money. |
Funeralopolis
05.22.16 | @black: look up some videos on Ni No Kuni and see what you think. It is a somewhat controversial game, some love it, some hate it. |
Sinternet
05.22.16 | it's worth noting that the cutscenes in ni no kuni were done by studio ghibli as well |
Snide
05.22.16 | @Funeral: I'm watching a gameplay video right now and I ADORE the art style, gameplay looks solid too. If there's a sequel coming out on PS4 I'm gonna be all over that.
@Chortles: I basically never played my PS3 collection so I get how you feel.
@Sinternet: Studio Ghibli?! Why the fuck didn't I have this game. Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away are two of my favorite movies. |
Spec
05.22.16 | FIFA is great you can't go wrong. |
Veldin
05.22.16 | Ni No Kuni is one of the best JRPGs. I'm finally going through the Final Fantasy gameography(?). Never knew how good the first five were. Super stoked for XV |
tempest--
05.22.16 | get Uncharted collection and then 4 because they're like the flagship playstation games.
rocket league obv, would be great for your housemates as well.
if u have played/like assassins creed you should get black flag and/or syndicate.
indie games off the ps store i'd recommend are binding of isaac, limbo, and unravel. |
MalleusMaleficarum
05.22.16 | ive been waiting for a great driving sim to drop, hoping Asseto Corsa delivers in August |
Snide
07.16.16 | So yeah bumping this because fuck I love pretty much every suggestion that was put forth in here. |
Chortles
07.16.16 | lol commented on this two months ago saying how much I wanted a ps4 and would wait awhile to buy and now I have one
all I have so far is Bloodborne and tlou remastered and honestly those two alone probably make it worth it |
Spec
07.16.16 | Guys is Overwatch dope af |
PappyMason
07.16.16 | Pure Chess, that sounds unreal mate.
Tbh, I don't think Chess translates well to gaming |
Valkoor952
07.16.16 | Well you already have Bloodborne, so I would say play that because it's simply amazing. I like Uncharted as well but bloodborne is my favorite. It's just phenomenal.
Also Rocket League. It's somewhat cheap and it's great fun. |
0GuyMan0
07.16.16 | if you like classic RPG you can get I am Setsuna on PS Store today. Looks gorgeous. |
