From what I've heard, the framerate is inconsistent, but it has visual upgrades over the last-gen versions and all the DLC from those versions too. It's a hell of a game, and if you haven't played it before, this version is definitely the best way to experience it. It's among the best of the GTA clones. The melee is ridiculously fun with all the environmental poo poo you can do. And the music selection for the in-vehicle radio rules.

I've got it and played a good few hours so far. The frame rate tanked for a second or two twice so far, once in a cutscene and once just after a fight to get a safebox. Done plenty of driving and never had any issues there. Twice it has crashed whilst loading (i.e. when starting the game, not had any crashes during play). Mostly though it's been fine, and I was expecting worse after reading what people have said so far in this thread. There have been a couple of funny glitches, like people you are talking to when taking favour missions being pushed around by pedestrians, but I've never played it pre-PS4 so I don't know how glitchy it was in the past and that might not be anything new.

I really don't know what to spend the 40.01 on in the digital store to hit the 100 this month for the 15 off deal.

I liked assassins creed brotherhood and black flag, but I usually binge play those so maybe physical would be better so I can trade it away.

CoD looks like any other cod, but maybe it'll be fun and I don't have a shootymans game yet. I am worried everyone who plays regularly stuck with xbone.

I don't think I get bloodborne yet and it's pretty far away to preorder.

Basically why did driveclub have to suck and be unplayable

If you really want to buy some more game, I think trying out the smaller ones would not be such a bad idea - Valiant Hearts, Sound Shapes, Hohukum, Transistor, First Light, Peggle are all fairly different from the usual AAA fare and relatively cheap, but you should look at some videos before buying them.

That's also true - if you didn't want to spend money otherwise, the promotion does not let you save much, otherwise it provides a convenient excuse, if nothing else.

You must spend the money, merely adding it to the PSN wallet is not enough.

No one stuck with Xbone. For anything. Ever.

Illiteracy... what does that word even mean?
The PS4 asked me if I wanted to allow Blu-Ray playback to connect to the internet and told me I could disable it in the settings. I did disable it, and now every time I start a Blu-Ray it still asks me if I want to allow it connect to the internet. How can I make it stop doing that? It's annoying.

Yeah, that's basically it. I have free time coming up on the holidays and am over playing d3 as my only real game. I don't know of many deals, especially for digital, that are going to be better than a flat 15 off of any game.

I also don't know if I missed something with those 2 titles specifically. I was all about driveclub before launch and everything that happened there completely ruined my enthusiasm.

Anyways thanks for the tips. I guess I should have asked about destiny for the 300th time.

Maybe Samurai Warriors, just because the story is a fresh start rather than a continuation of a continuation of a continuation of a crazy mixed up historical thing.

Maybe some unannounced one in the future, but I doubt it. I don't think it's a particularly popular part of either the Warriors or Gundam franchises. I mean, they tried to reboot it a year or two ago, and haven't said anything since, to me that sounds like it's dead.

Yeah, I think Gundam Musou's done at this point. One Piece Musou makes a ton of money, they just announced Dragon Quest, and they're probably working on DW9. It's probably safe to file Gundam next to Fist of the North Star in the "poo poo's dead" category.

I've decided to try out Dust: An Elysium Tail, since it's on the PS+ and all, and it's actually really good - it's really pretty, and although gameplay is not very engaging it's executed well and is dynamic enough, the framerate is stable. It doesn't seem to be very tough, which is nice - I've started a playthrough on on Tough difficulty and so far I only died once, and only because I misread an enemy. My only complaints so far are that the text is very small and that portraits of the characters, compared to the scenery and overall art style, seem really cheap and uninspired.
