That reminds me of finding PEN15 Land on PS3 one night, only to never find it again when we got 4 drunks together trying to play the wonderful land of raining cockn'balls.

That's the reason I wish the mechanics were tighter, the customization stuff really is cool but the mechanics are a dealbreaker for me. I was just giving you poo poo about letting your son play a game that isn't goon approved

I bought the original LittleBigPlanet and wasn't all that impressed with it at first. Then one night a friend of mine was over and it was late and we had been drinking and we just started playing all these elaborately dumb levels and it was just really loving fun. The second game had a significantly better campaign and a clearly superior level editor. People did a lot of really neat stuff with it but on some level the magic of the first game came from people getting creative with a more restricted toolkit. I probably would have been way more into the game if it had come out back when I was in high school and spent all my time loving around with the Warcraft 3 map editor.

I think LBP is pretty good but at the same time I don't really give a poo poo about it. I bought the first game on release day and liked it well enough and only bothered to play 2 for about an hour when it was a free PS+ game. I don't really have anything to criticize about it but at the same time I don't really have any interest in it at this point.

After close to 6 hours with Evil Within, here are some quick scrappy impressions that should cover most of what people will want to know, spoiled in case people want to go in completely blind:
I really like it. As with RE4 and RE5, I can't wait to blast through it NG+ and beyond with fully upgraded weapons.

Game is honestly sounding perfect, thanks for the non spoilery writeup. Can't wait to get my preorder in later and play it at midnight. Hopefully the $7 off sticks around until it's out.

I'm looking to get a better (cheap) headset specifically for chatting than the one that came with the PS4. Does anyone have any experience with this one? It looks suspiciously much like the headset from Rocketfish Gaming. Or this one, which is the Turtle Beach - Ear Force P4C? I've seen comments about low audio, but it seems like more of a general PS4 thing.

I've been seeing a lot of news about DriveClubs server issues. You can't even buy the full game on PSN right now. Did the game just sell incredibly well or is this another case of Sony is really bad at online services?

My guess is neither, but the developers Evolution didn't know what the gently caress they were doing. I don't think Sony is to blame here. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-10-13-driveclub-dev-defends-game-launch-had-confidence-servers-would-work Destiny averages 3.2m players a day and copes just fine, I doubt Driveclub has sold anywhere near that much.

So that Sleeping Dogs release is a bit disappointing:eurogamer posted:Unfortunately, performance is not high in the running order for Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition. Where there's any cluttering of vehicles around the city's downtown area, we see the performance ranging between 20-30fps on both platforms. From our frame-rate analysis, the game hits 22fps at its lowest point on Xbox One, while PS4 shows 25fps at its worst in comparable scenes. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-sleeping-dogs-definitive-edition-face-off I'm not a graphics fascist but if you can't even hit a locked 30fps on a two-year-old last-gen game that's a bit of a let down

That is a seriously poor showing, if the framerate is stable on the last gen version it might actually be the console version of choice.

I thought the FPS/tearing in Sleeping Dogs was annoying enough on the 360 to not finish the game, kinda sad it's similar on the PS4 as well. Especially for $60.

Sorry, but a "Definitive Edition"'s purpose is to run better and be prettier, if the game costs as much as a brand new one at least that much should be expected, I hope. It's good that the flaws had been exposed and if you don't care about that, that's great, but buying a game after learning that would be doing yourself a disservice.

Yeah, I'm just gonna wait and see if they patch it. I'm not gonna pay $60 for a frame dropping/screen tearing experience I can already have on PS3. I really hope that they are paying attention to this for the SR4 remaster. Frame dropping was awful at some points in that game.

I can really see why Driveclub got bad reviews, it doesn't offer a lot new and it's main selling point doesn't work adequately (at this point). But I'm enjoying every minute of it, such a great sense of speed, each track is beautiful and interesting (love the changing verticality) and the handling is so satisfying. It's got that perfect one more go challenge to it as well It is right to be criticised but anyone happy with a simple solid racing experience shouldn't be put off IMO.

I am more excited for my PlayStation TV to come tomorrow so I can play Persona and some other vita games on my TV in the bedroom, than I am for Evil Within considering it's 1) Embargoed. 2) From the streams so far, I am not impressed. 3) Hopefully I am wrong. But after getting burned by Destiny, I am done preordering games for a while. And what's funny is all the preorder bonuses come with the game if I go pick it up after it launches at Walmart/Target anyway.

It's worth harping on in this case because it's kind of a dealbreaker. If it's not going to offer better quality and performance then just pick up the original used for $10.

I'm looking to pick up a 2tb drive to drop into my PS4, but from what I'm reading, is the only way to transfer all my data to download it again from PSN? *looks at Sky "broadband" and weeps* Also, after swapping out, would I be able to format the old drive and pop it into my PS3?

Yes, it is. Sony blew it there. Fun fact: You couldn't actually do a backup larger than 640 GB from or to a PS3, meaning anything over 750 GB in the PS3 (due to its own partition madness) is kind of a waste. Yes, you can put the newly liberated hard drive in a PS3, BUT if it's in your PS3 and you need service on your PS4 your options suddenly become [either] spend literally a week before factoring in stuff like work and sleep redownloading all your stuff on both consoles [or] risk losing your PS4's big drat drive to 'well that's not how we sold it to you'. dont be mean to me fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Oct 13, 2014 |
