Well in Rime's case the developers said that it's far more expensive to manufacture the cartridges than it is to print Blu-ray discs. I know Puyo Puyo Tetris is $10 more because they threw in a bunch of dumb keychains but as far as I know there's no excuse as to why the Minecraft game is $10 more at retail.

Are those games only more expensive when you get a physical copy or also on the eshop?

Buyout both versions poo poo their bed in certain areas (Korok Forest, lol) and in general if too much stuff +Gras is on screen Frame rate nerds would lose their minds playing zelda. I have actually hit points where it runs at about 1 frame every 2 seconds.

PPT is supposed to be $10 cheaper on the eShop but I'm reading that in Europe the digital version is on the same tenner increased price.

The complete BoI package on Steam costs around €36. Edit: So yeah, not as much of a difference as one would think.

I can forgive a whole lot and I do. I didn't bother me when I played Zelda on the WiiU but coming from Horizon it did make me appreciate the effort Guerrilla put into making the engine run at a near 30 FPS.

Calling it NG+ is not entirely accurate, but you start route B by continuing from a save file that cleared route A, and rounte C by continuing a save file that cleared route B.

In addition to those, I used it for Doom, TF2 (which still has an active multiplayer community unlike the pc version), Destiny, Rainbow 6, Uncharted 4/collection, TLOU, and Blops3 (also somehow has a healthier mp pop compared to the pc version). Got a lot of mileage out of it myself

Jimbot posted:I really want From to make new franchises and maybe revive some old ones (OTOGI) but I would love for them to revisit the Bloodborne series once more. It's such an incredible game. These are seriously two of the coolest video games ever made, it's genuinely awful that they're only available on the original XBox. I hope that, now that they're taking a break from Souls that FromSoftware re-releases some of these lost but excellent games of theirs on the PS4 or on PC or something. The Otogi games, Metal Wolf Chaos, Shadow Tower Abyss, they have a bunch of great oddball games that never popped up anywhere else. I mean if they announced Bloodborne 2 I'd be there day 0 but I hope they get to do something a little different. Even if it's just Sci-Fi Souls or something. I finally got ADK Tamashii, I'm a huge SNK/Neo Geo fan so this was a real treat. Most of ADK's Neo Geo games actually aren't that awesome but it does have Twinkle Star Sprites and Ninja Master's on it and the compilation is worth it just for those. I'm still shaken SNK published a compilation of ADK Neo Geo stuff but didn't include Magician Lord.  Worth it though, an actual Neo Geo cartridge of Ninja Master's starts at like $400.  Twinkle Star Sprites is just as addictive as ever. PS4 owners without a Wii U or Switch can use it as a good substitute for Mario Kart 8 at destroying friendships.SNK mentioned that they're working on putting Fatal Fury Battle Archives: Volume 2 on the PS4 also. I'm hoping it's the Japanese version since while all three games on it are awesome, the US PS2 version of this game has reduced and white/green blood. I know that sounds stupid to care about but I have the original PS2 collection and for a 2D sprite game where all the stuff is drawn and layered in a really specific way it really does make a lot of the animations look weird. MrLonghair posted:Two year anniversary of Bloodborne I still love that in February 2015 and March 2015, Sony put out two big budget first party games about gothic Victorian blood cults that hunt werewolves within like one week of each other. The Order: 1886 was an embarrassment compared to Bloodborne though. Neo Rasa fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Mar 26, 2017 |

If Horizon added a survival mode or an arena where you fought increasingly harder waves of robodinos I'd probably load that up every single day of my life.

I mean, I got pretty bored of the combat by the end as well. It's a great game, but the combat isn't that deep and becomes pretty easy by the end. Which is perfect for a story-driven open world game. But I'm not really lining up to play it again. The combat experience is great in the early and mid game when you are learning how to fight each enemy with the tools you have available. By the end, when all the tool are available and you know how to fight every enemy, there's not a lot left.

I'm using the PS4 twitch app and it keeps changing quality of the stream, which means repeating the past couple seconds of the broadcast. It does this repeatedly, about once every 10 seconds occasionally skipping ahead 20 seconds or so to catch back up with the stream. Is there any way to fix this?

you could try watching twitch through the web browser instead. otherwise no, it'll just do that. I always assumed it was to do with my internet being garbage when it happens to me, tho it's not nearly as bad or as often as it is for you

That's too bad. It's not like my internet is horrendous, I think it might just be right in between where either quality setting would work well or something. I wonder why they don't provide quality settings. Thanks anyways.
