When does the US store normally update? Because I want to open palm slam my mouse or phone screen and buy Bully the nanosecond it hits the store.

That will make Ps2, wii, 360, and now ps4 that I own that game on, and it's always worth it

Hell yes purchased and downloading so I can play after work. :pcgaming:

It's an OK game, the controls are kinda bad but when you get the auto-aim that snaps to the head it's a lot more bearable. As long as you know what you're getting into, have at it.

Is the game structured like the other games? Open area, lots of side activities to do, silly yet entertaining story etc?

It has most of the same stuff as the main games, there's an extra side activity involves going down a number of levels in the sewers to unlock stuff (I think it's each characters ultimate weapon, don't remember) and to fight Amon

There's the normal areas of the Kamurocho, and there are cordoned off areas where the zombos are.

Except in Mario there is no implication that exploration is something that's rewarded. You know from the get-go that you're only supposed to get through and that's it. Guacamelee bills itself as a metroidvania and comes with all the hallmarks of one, upgrades, locked paths, backtracking, convoluted maps, yet lacks the one thing that makes metroidvanias special: Nonlinearity.

Doesn't mean the game is poo poo, since the brawling is actually quite fun and the graphics neat.

However it's worth pointing out to preempt the disappointment on realization.

The fighting is good, the platforming is good, co-op is a lot of fun, and there's a lot worth going back and exploring to find. I don't think it ever matters at all that you have to fight the bosses in a specific order. It didn't sell itself as a big nonlinear choice game.

I'm quite a fan of them but I think you'll need some nostalgia help with the gameplay. They're action stealth games in the vein of a Batman or Mordor but without the modern gameplay they offer. They had some innovative ideas and after a bit you can see the early 3d action game problems they were solving or trying to solve.

I think the art style gives it a lot more leeway graphically than a lot of PS2 games would have. Outside of the flat plane geometry at times, nothing needs to be excused really. The art and presentation is almost enough to recommend it. It's just they had some gameplay ideas that were smart but ultimately clumsy.

I liked the first one on phones but it was much more of a DQ homage than the second/this one looks like. I guess I can't tell you too much other than its humour was in a good place, with a bandit mob named Stealy Dan.

Speaking of which, are there any good JRPGs on PS4 or have they been mostly regulated to the handhelds?

It's available but in a weird roundabout way: you download the demo, in the demo is a full version unlock you can buy but can't access any other way. As a bonus, it's $40 in Canada. Savings!

Catlateral Damage feels like an xblig game but it feels like one of those rare xblig games that's actually fun. $8 is still kinda stretching it for a game that looks lie it took $5 and a 2 liter of Mountain Dew to make but it's also pretty as advertised.
