Breath of the Wild would've turned into a shitfest like Watch_Dogs was under a Sony studio, because it would've gotten manhandled, restarted, and scrawled over in crayon half a dozen times in its long development cycle. It's pretty drat clear from how big and dense the game is that what we see is very much likely more-or-less what's been developed since they started the project.

Am I crazy for wanting my first PS4 Pro game to just be TLoU Remastered? I know it's a kind of clunky 3rd person shooter, but except for MGR:R it's literally the most fun I've playing vibeo games in years and it's only $20 bucks, and I'm not looking to drop $60 bones immediately after dropping $400, especially since I know Nioh and Horizon aren't going on sale anytime soon and I'm going full digital/exclusives only.

Do difficulty trophies stack in TLoU? Can I get like 5 by making my first run a survivor/completionist run?

Difficulty trophies traditionally always stack, so playing on the hardest difficulty from the get go will result in your getting all difficulty-based trophies.

Nah it's a brilliant game. It kinda killed my excitement for UC4 and somehow Rise of Tomb Raider, which I'm playing recently.

I went from TLOU to UC4 and found UC4 to be underwhelming. I THEN played Tomb Raider reboot and thought that was better too but I've just tried Rise of Tomb Raider and I think it's a bit of a mess and I find myself wanting to go back to TLOU.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I liked Rise of the Tomb Raider enough to 100% everything but the story is much weaker than TR2013 and Lara Croft's character is so one-dimensional in it. All the other mechanics though, from platforming to bow combat to the actual tomb raiding were rock solid.

The WiiU is pretty much the definitive Zelda machine right now, because it can play just shy of every single Zelda game released. I think maybe only the Oracle/Season games aren't on it.

I kind of hate how there's this division where they only put the GBC/GB/etc. stuff on the 3DS but not the Wii U, but if you get a Wii U and a 3DS you basically have every Zelda game covered. IIRC they even have the DS games on the Wii U and it really is only missing the Oracle games.

Wiiu wouldn't have the 3ds ones so you lose tri force heroes and link between worlds.

And no links awakening or Oracle games on wiiu either.

Still, you'd be set with both.

Unlike the Switch the SNES actually has some good exclusives coming out for it in the foreseeable future:

I love Nintendo but the Switch has nothing for me, it's the the first Nintendo system I have zero interest in getting right now, I even got a Wii U on launch day and love it.

I'm surprised to hear about the SNES controller's buttons dying easily. I have some where they're getting a little unresponsive now but I mean they're literally almost thirty years old so I can't really fault them for that.

Either way this is the PS4 thread, so pick up the Danganronpa 1+2 bundle that comes out this week because both of those games are rad and it's only $40 to get both on one disk.

They kind of pop-up on SA-Mart for pretty cheap semi-often. Like this guy is selling his and collection which is pretty legit, all you'd want to throw in is Bayonetta 2; BoTW; Wind Waker HD; Captain Toad; Hyrule Warriors (if you have 400 hrs to kill and like * Warriors game); and Yoshi's Woolly World (if you like co-op platformers with your s/o, or even not).

I recently got this PS4 bullshit. What game should I play first. Uncharted 4, Horizon, or Yakuza 0?

If you're definitely gonna play those 3 games (and you should, they all own):

Uncharted 4 is "only" around 10-20 hours (depending on difficulty level and whether you poke around for collectibles)
Horizon is absofuckingmassive but not bloated with quests, so you can rush through it or you can spend 30 hours and not even be half done like me
Yakuza 0 will eat your soul if you like minigames, otherwise the main story can be beaten in a fairly quick time, but seriously it's a big wonderful playground with tons of weird different minigames and things to mess around with

This is seriously such a good loving first 4 months of the year, especially for ps4. Even better with a wiiu. I have to imagine some Xbone owners why only have just the Xbone are really salty about missing out on like nioh, Yakuza, Nier, and horizon. And it's gonna get worse with persona on the way, and the kingdom hearts collection and so many anime games like gravity rush 2, dangan ronpas or nonary games. If you don't have a ps4, you really are going to miss out on so much.

Yeah seriously, the GBA/DS/3DS are three of the top 5 consoles of all time when it comes to "quantity and quality of games" for me. Only the PS2 and SNES beat them out there.
