That's a pretty drat solid month. I probably won't play Infamous: Second Son because I'm bored of open world games, but Strike Vector Ex looks hella fun. e: so does sky force!

Is Hatoful actually well written or is it just a meme generator with pictures of doves?

It's far better written than it has any right to be.

It's pretty anime though

This. It is one of the more bizarre games that I have played, but it is so engaging and compelling. Also I follow Brian Pigeon on Twitter

Oh drat, I'm not interested on Child of Ligh but Strike Vector EX looked cool. I guess that if I ever get a PS3 for Demon's Souls I'll get to play Handball 2016 too :haw:

I'm just trying to go through life without looking stupid.

It's not working out too well...
Trying to decide which I should buy: Nier Automata, Yakuza Kiwami, or the Crash N.Sane Trilogy.

Thought about giving Kiwami a pass for now since I still need to finish Yakuza 0. I've heard Kiwami retains a lot of the difficulty of the original PS2 release.

Cool, thanks. Guess I'll wait to finish Y0 before picking up Kiwami. I should also probably finish Y5 as well, seeing how's it's been at least a year since I last played it.

without 70 hrs of watching characters like majima, nishiki, sera, etc. develop in 0 im not sure how i would care about them as they are presented in kiwami

I honestly think 0 does tons from making Majima a good character instead of a good meme (for lack of a better term.)

It's kind of a weird situation now where you miss stuff if you start with 0 but you also miss stuff if you start with Kiwami. On the whole 0 is still the better place to start though.

I think more series should go for this approach. The MGS franchise works this way. You can start at whichever game you want and they all build each other up, adding new contexts to characters and motivations. Same applies to Star Wars. You can watch either trilogy first and they build on each other.

What this guy said. I wasn't expecting to feel that hard about a character I was ambivalent on.

I can't stop saying how insane this year has been for games, and I haven't even gotten to some of the longer, heavier hitters.

BTW, I can't remember if it was you who asked me what game I would take over Yakuza 0 a few weeks ago, but I'm plowing through Zelda and I have to say it beats Yakuza 0 for me.

Ok, so apparently the earlier posted NA PS+ games list was wrong. The NA list is actually

inFamous: Second Son, PS4
Strike Vector Ex, PS4
Truck Racer, PS3
Handball 2016, PS3
We Are Doomed, PS Vita (Cross buy with PS4)
Hatoful Boyfriend, PS Vita (Cross buy with PS4)

So it's the same as EU but with Strike Vector instead of Child of Light

But is it a boat, or a spaceship? Is it a chase sequence in a boat like the jet ski in 4? Or a shooting sequence in space?

The possibility space is still pretty big there guy, it's not much of a spoiler.

I'm happy about strike vector EX. Always thought it looked good but was worried about whether or not the online would actually be populated.

Kind of bummed we don't get child of light though. Another one I've been planning to play for years.

I haven't played as Majima yet (I got to the start of his chapter before I dropped the game), but Yakuza 4 was the first Yakuza game I played, and the flashbacks in that game tie into the setup for his story Y0.

Question: Is there a demo for the Crash N.Sane Trilogy on PSN, or is just a kiosk demo? I'm trying to open the PSN store, but it just won't load.

Oh no you know resident evil 7 has a boat. Immersion ruined. Wipe that one from your must play list lads there's a loving boat that's the entire experience ruined. No point even playing it you see because there's a boat and as someone that hasn't touched resi7 that must be a crucial plot and the knowledge of the existence of this boat is the one entity which will taint this hours long game and make it unplayable.

Might be a zombie in it too? Whoops spoiler bro immersion ruined.

It's actually a big part of the game that was not disclosed in promo material but continue on with your tantrum if you want.
