On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

Team Ninja's already outright said that if there's enough demand for it then they'll bring it over. Still can't believe they didn't double down and call it Dead or Alive XXX.

Oh gently caress :cripes:. UC3 was by the same team responsible for UC1's endless waves of enemies as UC2's guys were off making The Last of Us.

I'd be shocked if it doesn't come out in the US, there's just as big an audience for that stuff here as there is in Japan. Even bigger possibly, I recall reading something from NIS about how those Hyper Dimension games do waaaaaaay better in the US than they do in Japan.

Is Dragons Dogma Online still in closed beta on Japanese PSN? Will you have to make a separate account for the game, or will just your PSN sign in do?
The beta at least forced you to sign up for a separate account, no idea if that will carry over though. I think someone in the import or PS Store threads might be able to dig up more information for you, it'd just get buried here.

There was definitely some hasty script rewrites due to actors not being able to do the roles for later in the game development. That was definitely a thing during uc3.

I did hear that the gameplay improvements from the later entries are being 'rolled back'. So what we'll probably get is UC3's gameplay in all 3 titles.

I wonder if that means they'll strip out the stupid motion stuff from 1. Back when Sony demanded every game include controller motion for some kind of major feature.

PC version of Final Fantasy Type-0 is out now for $30. The PS4 version is $50 though. :confused: The PC version got updated models too, makes the graphics more consistent.

Bloodborne just uses it as a pair of buttons, that's hardly forced usage, and the spraycan uses the DS4's gyroscopes as a really-accurate cursor rather than something dumb like running your finger across the trackpad. The only bad thing there is when you can't find that last goddamn unpainted spot.

Infamous' spraycan was really cool and I was kinda bummed that it was literally the only use of motion controls in infamous, and pretty much the only thing any dev has done with motion controls on sixaxis/dualshock4 that was worth a drat.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that they're making the motion controls completely optional in UC1

i'm surprised that gyro assisted aiming isn't more common off of 3ds, vita, and wii u. with a reticule on screen, the ds4 gyro could be really useful for fine tuning a headshot or whatever but i guess its a lot of work for something lots of people would switch off

It's part of the standard codebase at some level, so might not actually be that hard - the PS4 itself uses it as a cursor for inputting codes on the PSN store.

I would have liked to see the spray can implemented more into Delsin's character. Like, maybe you could unlock a melee attack where you blind people with it. I had expected paint powers as well, although I can't say I was disappointed by the...ah...variety of abilities you DO get.

I like it, but at time you do feel like your performance amounts to nothing in the scheme of the game. At least for me as I do my best when we are all dying horribly.

The game is slightly balanced away from VS at the moment. If in doubt, grab a medic or mechanic and heal/repair your way to certs. The healing tool is on a weird toggle that I can't remember offhand.

It's true, the guy that players Cutter disappears so abruptly because he got to be in The Hobbit. You can tell the ending was probably going to heavily involve him since the final conflict ends up being with the henchman guy that brainwashes him and is super abrupt. The last third of the story ends up being the same as UC1 and 2 also where it's like "Oh this powerful thing is actually a natural chemical that makes people go berserk." They also don't even touch upon Drake's name not really being Drake or how Cate Blanchett figured that out after it's brought up even though the game is titled "Drake's Deception." I assume the story of the fourth game will deal with that now.

I wouldn't mind that. Either way I do hope this is the final Uncharted game as it looks to be pretty cool. I'm not the biggest GoW3 fan but it was still lame to see the series end with a game as crappy as Ascension.

Yeah my engibeer is doing great in the game, the AI turret you can unlock helps hold down an area pretty well. But here is a thing I want to know...

The codes are never sent out with the rentals, so there shouldn't be any issues (barring a Gamefly employee stealing a code, which seems unlikely)

Richardson agrees
My Pulse Elite headset just snapped at both cups, where they attach to the head band. Apparently this is a common flaw in their design, since the Amazon review page is littered with 1 star reviews of people having this happen to them.

I did use them for almost two years, but I'd rather not buy another $100+ pair just to wait for their lovely design to break again. How are the Playstation Gold headsets, in terms of build quality?
