I find Gamefly worth the Q hassle because it saves me money. It sucks not having games the week prior to a new release but it's worth it because the day before release they've shipped my new games. Gonna eat well this fall. I simply don't have the cash to buy new games.

Embargo on Shadow of Mordor ends tomorrow so we should know soon whether it's good or a steaming pile. Honestly as much of it as I've seen I still can't decide which way it's going to go.

Ending the embargo before release shows some confidence I think. Nobody does that anymore, even developers making good games.

We can't really judge whether it gets repetitive or is really buggy or whatever, but it certainly looks appealing from what I've seen so far.

It sucks not having games the week prior to a new release but it's worth it because the day before release they've shipped my new games. Gonna eat well this fall. I simply don't have the cash to buy new games. The problem I have justifying it right now in particular is that Gamestop started offering a much more fair amount of money for trade ins. Like, I traded in Watch Dogs for 42 dollars almost a month after I bought it. I would rather have it on release day, play it for awhile, and then just trade it in whenever. But thats just me. loving around with gamefly really annoyed me when I had it, but I admit I havent actually had it since maybe 2007ish so maybe its improved or something. Aphrodite posted:Ending the embargo before release shows some confidence I think. Nobody does that anymore, even developers making good games. Yeah, this is a really good sign. I feel my will weakening already. Early reviews are a good sign. I am embarrassingly eager to read them tomorrow while I am having my morning coffee at work.

Gamefly isn't perfect, and while I'll say that it can sometimes take a while to get a game, that actually works better for my style, since it gives me time to work on my backlog in the meantime. Anything I want, I'll go ahead and buy elsewhere, but I love Gamefly for letting me try out those B-tier titles I'm not quite sure about. And then if I love them, I pay well under the current used price to keep them. It's definitely not a means of getting the hot new titles, but as a way of testing out those games that came out a month ago that you heard were alright, it's the poo poo.

I had a gamerang subscription and at one point I had the same 2 discs out for 6 months cause I just wasn't playing games for a while. They had raised the prices so I didn't want to cancel cause if I use it again I would be charged more but I ended up just forgetting about it and my credit card expired and they never got any more money. I think I still have the discs somewhere.

Darth Windu posted:Did you see anything specifically that made you think this? It looks like more Dark Souls, which is fine but not mindblowing. It looks quite a bit different from Dark Souls. Just from watching the gameplay trailer you can tell: - there are no shields, so turtling is no longer an option - the game is faster paced, and has more enemies on screen - there are guns - weapons have transformations, which none of the Souls games had It's even more different if you dig into some of the pre-release information. That said, there's a huge amount of people that would be totally sold on the game if you told them it was "more Dark Souls". The fact development is being led by the DeS and DS1 guy certainly helps, and the game just looking amazing helps as well. Bloodborne is going to be one of the bigger games of 2015, y'all watch.

Ha. Yeah "more Dark Souls" is enough for me to be completely pumped, but it really looks like they are trying to do something new enough for it to feel a bit different while remaining something that will appeal to Souls fans. Basically my dream game in a nutshell. Also, the graphics are a huge improvement which is cool because it's always been kind of a low budget series.

I'm looking forward to a game with more souls style combat, challenging difficulty levels, and what looks to be a pretty awesome co-op system based on the leaked information. And yea, the art on this looks to blow the art in the Souls series proper away.

I have been having major issues since the last update with things in the PS4's UI either not loading or loading very slowly. It's always been bad but it's hit the point where my PS4 will be barely functional at times and I have to restart it just to get things to load at all. Is this something everyone is experiencing? If not is there something I can do like re-download the last update. This is getting pretty absurd.

Remember when Media Molecule teased that 3D sculpting app that used the Move controller at the PS4 reveal event? I wish they'd release that, especially with the VR goggle thing.

I'm probably part of the problem because I'm genuinely saddened by the leap forward in timeline and pseudo-Victorian setting. I would have been happy with Demon's Souls 2, this time with mindblowing textures and hot rodded graphics.

The most I have to wait for anything to load is about 2-3 and that's not often. What does your network speed test say? I'm pretty sure it's dependent on your connection.

When's that ps4 update with the themes supposed to come out? That LOTR Assassin creed game looks really cool and polished in the videos I've seen, but I have a feeling it might be about as boring as playing another annual assassin's creed game

I didn't really care for the batman games either, oh well. I just read some Bloodborne leaks. Sounds nuts. There's a blood choice at the start and you have to manage a disease and collect/transfuse your blood through the game. No health aids during boss fights. You could become a boss in NG mode or via defeating a boss while in a covenant You can summon people via your friends list.

Not only that, but you the alleged leak actually said no health consumables during bosses only if you summmon an ally to help you.

I just saw a post on r/ps4/ yesterday talking about a guy who had this EXACT issue and accessed some option to reset a cache or something and after doing so everything was totally back to normal. I'm on my phone and can't easily pull it up right now so you might want to scan the first page or two of the subreddit and see if you find it, but if not I'll pull it up later

Bloodborne was never a 2014 game, from E3 on they were saying early 2015 (which everyone took to mean March since Sony already had a release date set for The Order in February).
