This.

Do we know yet if it's basically three separate games, or if the tracks from all three are mashed together? I'm hoping for the latter.

Someone mentioned the latter but no surety

I'm curious as well, also about how the online is going to work. This and Dirt 4 this month. Pumped. Forgot amazon doesn't do the sale on digital copies. Think wipeout is one you'd just want on the drive.

Dirt 4 is still $40 at amazon 🤔

so is it just me or are people insanely bad at paladins. the quick play thing claims it's placing me against other people but I really don't know if I believe that. it doesn't display the other team's names either, so it's hard to take the game at its word on this one

I will say that I love how fast the queue times are. overwatch almost never matches me into a game in under 2 minutes but paladins has me shooting people in under 10 seconds even though it's the middle of the night. game's pretty fun for what it is

"Dirt" is the newest iteration. It's much bare bones realistic than the others. So it definitely depends which play style you prefer

Dirt 4 has generated a lot of buzz tho and is coming out soon. Dirt 3 was alright and came out like five years ago.

I don't really play racing games normally, but I got Dirt Rally on sale a couple of weeks ago and it's the most fun I've ever had with one by a long shot. I'm sort of obsessed with it. I'm a total newb to the series and Rally racing in general I just like that it actually feels like driving a car.

Definetly interested in Dirt 4 but TBH the VR support in Rally is a such a big part of the appeal I might wait and see if they add it to 4 before buying it.

Did people really play wipeout in clubs or after the pub? I mean it's not exactly mario kart, it's hard enough to play without pinballing off the walls constantly even with practice and not drinking. can't see it as a casual fun game but i've always been bad at it
There's a pub near my office that has PS4s in booths, a couple of years ago they seemed to be very popular for Bloodborne. I can't imagine that being an optimal environment/situation to play that game but people still did it!

I asked one of the devs on Dirt 4 about that, BTW, and he was non-committal about the when/if, though enthusiastic about the response it has gotten on Rally thus far.

So... nothing to report, I guess.

See that button in the top right? If your mech is blowing up and you don't hit that in time the game will delete your save.

I was really bummed when the Kinect game turned out to be poo poo, because I wanted to play that kinda game without a $200 controller.

If you just started Paladins the game will match you with bots for a while till like level 5 or something. It took me a while to realize what was going on and tbh I thought my game was bugged out.

As far as I know the game itself doesn't mention this.

I'm mainly looking for those extra triggers on the back for playing Overwatch. I have it on PC and Playstation and most people I play with are still PS, but I'm sick of the joystick jump. I tried out a friend's Scuf and when I went to price one out on the website, with like 2 extra features it was like 170 shipped. Truly not looking to spend that on something with the life of maybe 9 months on the top end.

People that use Scufs do prefer the paddles compared to buttons on the back, but their reliability is total dogshit since they spend all their money on ESPORTS marketing.

I use a controller from Battle Beaver. It's a normal DS4 but with two programmable buttons on the rear, and Smart Triggers which turn L2/R2 into mouse buttons. Cost was $145 shipped. Alternatively, you can give up and buy a XIM. I guess they're technically legal since Sony has officially licensed a kb/m product yet the XIM remains way better at translation.

I recommend looking into the Collective Minds Mod Pack if you wanna try paddles on the cheap. I picked one up for Titanfall 2 and it's been pretty sweet. Unfortunately the button to reprogram the paddles is a little too easy to hit on accident but you'll get used to how to hold it after an hour or so.

Just beat the 2nd boss of The Surge and I'm really enjoying it. It's not as good as any of the Dark Souls games, Bloodbourne or Nioh, but it's still enjoyable and scratching that itch. Cutting off body parts for gear schematics and weapons is really satisfying. The story is alright so far as well.

I think I'm the only person playing this on PS4 but I dig it lots. It's a lot more chill than overwatch but pub games are trash until you level up enough to queue for competitive. In regular there's no class enforcement and people are too ignorant of mechanics. Feel free to add me on ps4, EffEmmEll. The founders pack is only $20 and gets you all released and future characters.

Imo it would be rad if they gave it another go and made it good for VR. That's what it wanted to be anyways. Kinect was a lame half measure.

Although I guess that is the polar opposite of playing without a $200 controller.

Their database is fuckin up on account of the game having triple the expected launch sales. Best things to do are either goon party or join the Friday 13th game finder community if you're on PS4 and party hop there. Game has a much easier time putting groups into lobbies with others than singles.

I made a financially irresponsible decision yesterday and bought a PS4 Pro. I blew my 20% coupon that came with it on a stack of Capcom games that were already on sale and some Arcade Archives games. Spent $68 on $144 worth of games.

...and I have like no idea what's on this system besides Arcade Archives, fighting games, and cross platform stuff. What are the best grindy rear end RPGs I should buy?
