AND add me @whitedangelo

Nice to be back gaming.
Couldn't do the computer gaming thing anymore as I spend 8 hours a day on it already.
- All of the games I've played thus far have been incredible. Uncharted is bad ONLY because I realize I need a new TV.
: )ideaist - Bloodborne.DRIFTMONKEY
- hahaha, I love decisions made by DrunkenAlterEgos :)detritus
- ..well, friendly ones. Not dickhead drunken egos.detritus
- I've been loving Battlefield 1. And if you haven't played Last of Us, give that a shot.elahon
- great set of starter games; yes add last of us remastered!digitdaily
- Y'all = the best.
Seriously.ideaist - Wolfenstein (both titles), Driveclub, Unravel, Transistor, and Destiny - the past couple of updates have (finally) made it into a decent game.face_melter
- I would also seriously recommend No Man's Sky but the mere mention of it turns some adults into whining basketcases.face_melter
- haha, I was reading up on NMS yesterday (re: hacked twitter) and wondered about asking here how people were getting on with it these days :)detritus
- metal gear is goodscarabin
- Some solid recommendations above - I'd also toss in Overwatch, Diablo 3, Fallout 4, Witcher 3, The Witness.duckseason
- I just picked up Titanfall 2 - enjoying it so far; however, the jury is still out. Hit me up if you want PSN: SeeArrduckseason
- I'd second No Mans Sky, it has its faults, yes but worth the experience. Journey and The Last of Us for sure.Bluejam
- The Last of Us is the best game hands down. Single player campaign is seriously one of the most moving digital experiences.-kappa-
- Shadow of Mordorsherm
- Lets play Uncharted 4 Multiplayer :) It's a whole different new game and super fun :)Fabricio
- Metal Gear Phantom Pain, Battlefield 1 and coming up Watch Dogs 2prophetone
- you know there's a better PS4 coming in about 10 daysernexbcn
- Yes @ernexbcn, but not willing to invest in 4K TV, just yet.
; )ideaist - well, according to sony, games with pro mode will have improvements at 1080p too, but not many games at launch honestly...ernexbcn
- Last of Us, GTA5, Rocket Leaguedee-dubs

I usually only play video games if i’m home sick on a weekday, or on weekends, after the kids are in bed, and my wife and I aren’t watching something together on TV (so, only play video games a couple hours/week if that). That said, after 2 years I finally beat Batman: Arkham Knight on the PS4 w/ 100% completion (including solving like 250 riddles). It was a beautiful game; fun, challenging and frustrating at times. Now I don’t know what to do with my life. Recommendations? I loved GTA 5, Last of Us, Resident Evil, etc. what’s the new hotness, or upcoming hotness?
- Pick up Horizon Zero Dawn for cheap, i still haven't beat it, it is fun and very pretty.BabySnakes
- red dead redemption, maybesince1979
- Zelda Breath of the Wild on Switchmonospaced
- Had a friend offer to loan me his switch now that he’s completed it, but with my scant, casual gaming, couldn’t “borrow” it, so only thinking PS4 titles.bulletfactory
- Heard it’s amazing though, and played all The Wii Zeldasbulletfactory
- Red dead redemption- they doing a new one? I remember hearing great things, but that was years agobulletfactory
- I also have battlefront from a few years ago, and mortal kombat, but don’t play enough to pay for ps online, so those aren’t a big draw at this pointbulletfactory
- New Red Dead will no doubt be awesomeness. +1 for Horizon, Last of Us and Zelda if you want to buy another console...MrT
- horizon is the tits. been bingeing it every weekendscarabin
- yup, +1 for horizon. also, Witcher III, Uncharted 4, Tomb Raidermekk
- if you're only getting on very few hours i'd hold off getting into a big game and wait for RD2, that's out this year first quarter. play something like...cruddlebub
- Rocket League to pass a few hours here or there. Its a great game to just jump in and out of and blast on when time is short. Horizon is amazing though...cruddlebub
- Uncharted 4: A Thief's End or Lost LegacyBluejam
- Horizon Zero Dawn, 100%. Beautiful game. Witcher III is too, but at your rate, it'll take you 20 years to complete. SO MUCH CONTENT. =)elahon
- I need to give horizon another go. Just felt so clunky and open-world-generic after playing Zelda switch.inteliboy
- Horizon Zero Dawn should be on the top of everyones's list. Finally got a console, and have been playing it for the last two weeks.jaylarson
- Thanks for the suggestions! will look into Horizon Zero Dawn. For now I'll just blow off steam wreaking havoc in GTA5.bulletfactory
- just beat horizon with 91%. definitely go for the ancient armory side quest!scarabin
- indeed, that shield armor! fu thunderjaws!jaylarson

- Jackie Chan Simulator. Cool.DRIFTMONKEY

Out now
- such a gorgeous game, easily in the top 5 for the system.jaylarson
- I'm about 4 hours in, and it's already safe to say it's the best game I've ever played. absolute masterpiece in every aspect.Milan
- Jay, I’d love to hear your top 5 in rank order.ben_
- Lots of retards are angry about "the gay agenda" (b/c Ellie is gay)... Great game, watched marathon walkthrough.jagara
- It's incredible. Maybe 1/2 way through. BRUTAL though.inteliboy
- Awfully fucked online reaction. Imagine spending 5+ years of your life on a project to see entitled incel fuckwits review bomb and troll your work.inteliboy
- About 2-3 hours in and it’s a great fucking game ... beautiful to look at, brutal and on the edge of the seat gameplay and nothing wrong with the story so farBluejam
- I think I'm halfway done, it's incredible the amount of work ND poured on this, it oozes quality in every cornerernexbcn
- 4-5 in. GotY?jaylarson
- about 9 hours in, although i do go slow.. very cinematic and beautiful (in a dystopian way). The horse-riding into the village at sunset at the beginning..dee-dubs

- I think it looks good. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯elahon
- Its aight, still better than xboxmoldero
- Black looks dope. White one.. if it was an xbox I'd hate it, shows my ps fanboy bias.inteliboy
- Doesn't look bad, but it's big and you can't place it horizontalMilan
- It's been confirmed that it can indeed be laid horizontally.
https://comicbook.co…elahon - Yeah black looks much better. The B/W version is so cornyNBQ00
- oh, my bad. looks good horizontally. the shape is probably good for the air flow/cooling too.Milan
- Certainly not my favourite looking console ever but since it sits within a cabinet, hidden from critique, it will do just fine.ben_
- slightly bettermilfhunter
- It looks like a slightly upmarket satelite TV decoder.jagara

Are you looking for a challenge?Wolfboy - It's my favorite. Deep enough to shed tears, listen to the monologues in between different games. Heavy stuff and nostalgia.helloeatbreathedrive

re: ^
I have a related story of the first time i played Journey on PS3. I was just sorta exploring and stuff then all of a sudden i saw this character that kinda looked like me. I thought it was like a bot or something meant to have some significance to the story so i more or less ignored it for a bit then realized it was following me around. I started trying to interact with it by jumping on it, using the 'action' button to talk and stuff and it would start talking back at me (little symbols appearing over its head basically, no actual words).
I thought it was pretty novel and then all of a sudden it ran off. I thought maybe its trying to tell me something so I followed it but it didnt seem to be doing anything important, it was just sort of... playing.. Jumping up on to stuff, then back down, running in cool patterns. If I stopped following it, it would come back and check on me to see if I was still around, 'signalling' to me, etc. If i ran off the other way, it would follow me. After a short bit it started to feel less and less like some AI programmed NPC thing...
A short bit later I fell down into this area and didnt know how to get out, then all of a sudden the character jumped into the hold with me then started beeping to show me the way out. It finally snapped that it had to be a real person, the way it acted / reacted to everything I was doing was too surreal to be AI. And so I followed it. It got me out of the stuck area and then we basically... journeyed... together.. for many levels. There were times where we were sneaking around monsters trying not to get seen, times where we were solving puzzles together, and times where we would just stand and beep at eachother because that was the only actual way we could communicate.
Near the end, we were climbing this mountain together and the snow was blowing in our faces and we were taking refuge in these little nooks and crannies together and eventually trying to brave up this snow covered summit together, trying to stick together to stay warm, but the weather overtaking us. They dropped into the snow and remained still, and shortly after I did as well.... We both died, then the screen did a dissolve to white and we reappeared in this incredible sky area, able to fly.
We finally reached the end of the game and youre supposed to go through this big archway into this 'heaven' like brightly lit area, but I couldn't do it.. I didn't want to end the story, or even more, i stood at the archway completely mystified about what was going to be through it. I was basically deciding if I wanted to even know... The whole experience to that point was so surreal and so magical that I felt like walking through that archway would ruin it somehow.
So I just stood there... watching my partner walk further and further into the light... a complete stranger that I had just spent the last 2 hours somehow connecting with on an almost spiritual level yet without ever even a single spoken or written word... swallowed by light and gone forever...
- This is an amazing story, this game is indeed fantastic! It took me a while to figure out I was playing with another real person. Clever mechanic!Fabricio
- Thanks for that :)Gnash
- Didn't know that game had that mechanic. I only watched a playthrough, gorgeous, memorable, & important gamejaylarson
- What a story! Thank you for sharing_niko
- yeah when you finish the game it tells you the usernames of the players you came acrossernexbcn
- Lovelycannonball1978
- ernexbcn i had no idea... i wish i had known at the time, the fact that it was just me and that stranger for pretty much the whole game, felt pretty cool.mantrakid
- thx for reading buds!mantrakid

I finally got around to playing through The Last of Us 1 & 2 and i was blown away by how polished they were. The level of detail, the art direction, the writing, the pacing, the crafting mechanics, the stealth and combat were all fantastic.
However, i now have a TLOU-shaped hole in my life and i’m not sure any game can fill it. Any ideas on what to play that feels similar? MGSV and one or two of the Assassin’s Creed games are all i can think of but i’ve already done those and they didn’t have the crafting stuff that i grew to love.
Ideas?
- Horizon: Forbidden West also comes close but isn’t quite there. I like creeping around and coming up with solutions to situations beyond puzzle solvingscarabin
- Days gone was pretty close imo, loved itYakuZoku
- Ohh yeah, i never finished that game. Time to fire it up again!scarabin
- I've been thinking I'm about due to replay the last of us again, curious about the revised part 1YakuZoku
- LOU are incredible. Theres not much that’s on par story wise. Control was a nice little come down after LOU.thumb_screws
- Red Dead 2 is up there. Or the last few Uncharted games.inteliboy
- TLoU 2 got a lot of hate, and I can’t see why. IMO a strong game that built well on the first. The Rat King will forever be a boss fight I remember.Vandal7
- I recommend:
1. Horizon 2
2. Death Stranding
3. Alan Wake 2 (coming soon)Vandal7 - Oh saw you said H2, I agree with Red Dead 2 tooVandal7
- Man, I loved TLOU Pt 2. Such an emotional journey. I totally understand the feeling of "What next? Nothing will live up to this." I was totally gutted.elahon
- Control
Humanity
Stray
... just great games and very differentBluejam - Finished stray, rdr2, and death stranding. I’ll check out control and humanityscarabin
- Yeah, forgot about Control. Their previous game Alan Wake is remastered for PS5, with AW II coming out later this month. Control was really cool.elahon
- That last "fight" scene in TLOU2 was fucking intense.kaiyohtee
- horizons 1 and 2 :DArchitectofFate
- HZD is in my top 3 all time.kaiyohtee
- horizon key west is gorgeous, just not as good as a storykaiyohtee
- Just finished Horizon 2, about to start the new AC: Mirage. Pretty excited, it’s my favorite franchisescarabin
- kaiyohtee3
Way better than I was expecting—some of those early promo vids the game looked terrible. I'm only 3-4 hours in and it's fun! The attention to detail in HW is pretty cool.
- Tempted on this one; is it a kids game?
I've got an 8-9 year old who may be keen BUT also no need for MORE games I guess?!ideaist - They seem to made this for a wide variety of age groups. More complex than the Logo games. Seems to be more for those 12+ (there is a lot of lore to read).kaiyohtee
- Looking forward to pirating thisscarabin
- Looks fun, going to have to wait for april for PS4, though. I heard you can ramp up the difficulty and it can get pretty brutal!elahon

Been playing Rollerdrome lately. It takes a while to get use to everything going on, but flying in slow motion upside down through the air and shooting a guy with dual pistols, or one handing a shotgun while grinding never gets old.
Also the clean Mobius art style rocks.
Its out on Playstation and Steam- Doing tricks gives you ammo, but you can never bail which is nice.Nutter

- jet set radio with gunspango
- You can also turn on cheat modes (unlimited ammo/health) when it gets too hard to juggle all the controls and it starts to feel like a grind (pun intended)koma_
- Only had a little blast and it was a blast. Worth sticking with yea?MrT
- Looks like it would run on my underpowered systemjagara
- imbecile9
- yupYakuZoku
- Reminds me of IWTBTB. If you're into this sort of hard platformer that isn't just cheap tricks, highly recommend Celeste.garbage

A few weeks ago I finally got a PS5, just finished playing the last of us part 2 & holy fuck what a story...
- loved both of these gamesdopepope
- there should be a spin off called "the least of us". you play someone who's a total competent dumb ass.pango
- Both are incredible games. The museum Ellie and Joel sequence is incrediblethumb_screws
- yep both excellent, if a tad stressful. I particularly enjoyed roaming Seattle and the sniper bit in part 2MrT
- Really hope they pull off the TV series.Akagiyama
- YupYakuZoku
- filmmakers behind the TV series are seriously talented. also HBO's highest budget production ever. got high hopesinteliboy
- ^ wow didn't know that but HBO gives us a lot more hope than the Uncharted movie did.MrT
- Half tempted to drop more £££ on the remaster/PS5 version of the first game and looking forward to the 'factions' mulitplayer next year ...Bluejam
- Is it actually getting a TV series? I'd watch that so hard!jagara
