NANI?

The speed up option makes grinding stuff a lot easier in the PS4 port, I got Great Gospel fairly easily and I almost never do poo poo like that.

The new prey got a press demo and there's lots of first hour footage

Its very extremely bioshock but with the actual -shock stuff still in there and not missing or hollowed out like bioshock.

I'm excited to see it worded this way, have to check this out now.

A lot of people are saying it's "like Bioshock" and I know Bioshock was way more popular but Prey was released a solid year earlier and did the shocking rollercoaster intro thing and was just as heavily praised for it. Just once the final game came out and turned out to be super short it was forgotten. Choppy as hell writing too though, I'm excited about this new one.

I'm still a little sad the original Prey 2 wasn't actually being made by people who could deliver a product, because that scripted "alpha gameplay" video they showed off was awesome, there was nothing in it that was particularly not doable or unbelievable for a game even at that time.

I disagree, the graphics and animation were way ahead of that gen and it was blatantly prerendered.

Hey, buddy. :glomp:



For Honour could be good but it feels paper thin. The box advertises five modes. Three of these are "fight until enemy team all dead" in 1v1, 2v2 or 4v4.

There is a 4v4 mode where you respawn on death until one team gets enough points, then win by fighting until the enemy team all dead. This is the other 2 modes.

That's not a lot of variety.

The mission is dumb and bad and what I ended up convincing myself must be true so as to avoid madness, is that camera positioning matters. I sincerely hope this is not actually true because it would be insanely stupid, but I found I could pull it off only (and even then not consistently) if the camera was more or less horizontal; Kat would then gracefully roll "forward" if I held up on the left stick and timed the dodge correctly. Does she try to roll into the ground if the camera is pointed straight down...? I managed it in the end, somehow.
Yeah, after like 50 attempts (some falling off the air buses too because after landing Kat handles about as gracefully as Geralt before the alternate movement patch) I finally got it. I have no idea what I did differently though; "hit R2 as you hit the ground" doesn't really leave much open for interpretation.

I was curious what the trophies for FF7 were, given the sale going on today:
https://www.exophase.com/game/final-fantasy-vii-ps4/trophies/

Even considering the global totals, a LOT more people have the Lv 99/9999999 gil/Great Gospel/Barret date trophies than I'd expect. And both Weapons. I guess if you're buying yet another copy, you're in it for the long haul...

There are boosts that trivialize everything, which is great if you just want to play through it again or for the first time and experience only the story. Barret date is the hardest trophy in the game to get, and max gil is as simple as using the boosts to blast through high AP enemies in about an hour and sell off your mastered All Materias.

I mean if you're gonna buy a PS4 at this point, it might as well be a Pro. Why wouldn't you want the best possible performance/graphics out of a console you're dumping a few hundreds into?

Well sure, if you don't have a 4K TV (I don't have one either) the improvements are probably negligible to a lot of people. But they're there. All I'm saying is if you don't already have a PS4, why not just buy the Pro if you're already gonna plunk down the money for a standard?

What if I could afford a 4K tv and a slim, but getting that pro costs just enough more that I have to get a 1080p tv? Then again, if I get a pro, do I even need a tv?
