Well poo poo, I never thought it's be a physical release in the west. I'll buy this game again for $30 bucks, especially with a goddamn steelbook. With this and Yakuza 0 coming west, I guess it's about time to finally buy a PS4.

Yakuza 0 isn't until 2017 though.

Yeah, but there're finally enough exclusives, current and potential, that I can make a decision on a console, and merit spending the money on it now. Plus, my PC's finally out-of-date enough to not play the games I want to play, so it's probably about time I get a current-gen console.

I can run most games just fine, and yeah, I know Valkyria Chronicles is on PC, and someone gave it to me on Steam. But I also can barely run Fallout 4, and can't run AC Syndicate or MGS:PP at all. So I figure, instead of upgrading over and over again piecemeal every few years, I'll just leave my PC as is until I'm ready to upgrade it completely and get a console with some exclusives that I like on it for the time being.

Consoles can barely run FO4! :dance:

But yeah, MGSV and Assassin's Creed are fine on consoles so go for it. You'll also get no-longer-lovely Destiny. Last of Us and Nathan Drake, Rocket League. Infamous. Things man. You get things and stuff!

"Barely" may be a bit harsh unless there's something I don't know about, but the load times in console FO4 are pretty loving bad and there's areas in the game that are notorious for massive frame loss. Basically it's another open world Bethesda game.

I asked in the XBone thread since they recently patched to 1.02 and someone linked a Digital Foundry video showing random momentary freezes, guaranteed freezes when pulling out a new weapon, freezes when going into a different area, and weapon sound effects that play SECONDS after you fire and cause hitching.

It runs and it's not Literally The Worst but it's apparently a very unpleasant experience at times, almost every player is guaranteed to have at least a couple of those times, and for something marketed with "It just works!" that plans on having mod support I'd call it rocky at best.

its important to note the ps4 version doesnt have the freezes/absolute 0 fps drops that the xbone has. still doesnt have a stable frame rate and can spike down to p uncomfortable levels for very short periods of time but overall its pretty solid.

Depends on Space Pig is European or not.

(Although NISA has been relatively quick with jumping through SCEE's hoops. A month's delay is far better than the brick wall of question marks we usually get over here regarding Atlus games).

My brother.

I got my PS3 in 2011, initially for just exclusives. Despite it being one of my first purchases, VC has sat on my backlog all this time after playing just enough to let me know it's totally my jam, part of that reason was lack of trophies nudging it lower down on my list. I will absolutely repurchase this for PS4 so I can earn those sweet trophies during my long-delayed playthrough of this game.

Sorry, you'll need a 3DS for an Atlus game with dungeon design and a "5" in the title.

100% agreed. maybe the combo of p5 being on ps4 and the ps4 selling so well will make this a reality because i dont want to buy a 3ds for it. i mean i will, but i dont want to have to.

Typically that gets announced the Wednesday before the next batch comes out, though that isn't a hard rule.
