Is this a good game?

It's not difficult or anything (unlike the original game, which hates you and everything you stand for) but it's super adorable and also has a button dedicated to hugging.

I don't require that my games are hard. I do like them to be fun, though...

Japan store:

Demos of Crypt of the NecroDancer are already available there, along with the full versions:
PS4 demo
Vita demo
I'll check it out later. Screenshots show a mix of English and Japanese.




Wait the full version is out for Crypt in Japan?! Was it known it was releasing earlier there? Also trip report on the understandability of the Japanese demo for this dirty gaijin.

Wow, thanks everyone! These are all good suggestions that I'm down with. Now that you jogged my memory I remember both Journey and Hohokum being things I wanted to play at the time!


Not necessarily. :) I have both of those on Steam and love them. I've just never owned a PlayStation (or any Sony console) before and was curious about what exclusive stuff I might have missed. They really don't like porting stuff to PC, haha. My bf got his dad's old PS3 to finally play Demon's Souls, so I figured I should take advantage of the situation.

Arty and great and a little more action but still

Oh word? Mine says delivery on 3/21. We're both talkin bout the eBay PayPal 50 for 43 and 20 off over 100, right?

[Ed] What time did you order? I ordered several hours ago and no word yet. The seller is paypal_digital_gifts, right?

Downwell showed up this week. If you haven't played it, it's a really fun game that's easily worth the $5 they're asking for it.

I'm guessing if I loved it on IPhone but wished the controls were not touch... That this would be the ultimate?

I know it's like a rite if passage to complain about plus freebies but a sports sim seems like a bad choice. Like only a segment of players would even give a drat about it, even if it was a very good game. And that same segment of "carers" probably bought it, mostly.

Some Kojima length cutscenes in NBA2k16. Also Lee's writing is about as blunt as it could possibly be and your team owner comes across like an unhinged psychopath. That cutscene felt like it was a half hour long. God drat.

Lee is either just an idiot hack anymore or he was like "gently caress it, Videogames, what do I care?!"

IDK... for me... given that half of the allure of a Web swinging simulator is the fluid animation of the person swinging.. I'd say this is a fail just based on videos. The animations look like a goddamn GI JOE toy strapped to a piece of yarn.

I don''t mean to sound like a cheap rear end in a top hat, but as someone who has bought Don't Starve, Reign of Giants, and Shipwrecked on PS4... is the price for DS:Together REALLY 14.99??

I mean... isn't it just basically the same game but with friends. (Which is awesome...)

[edit] Weird. The MegaPack includes all games and DLC (and "Together" for 10.79. Guess thats my jam.

It's ten and it's supposed to go in a discount box during checkout.

Also you guys who ordered abzu and bound, you guys are like me and the system isn't showing you ordered abzu and bound despite that you did. It's a glitch.

Hit up the chat and provide them your account name and order numbers for abzu and bound. They'll get you straightened up like me.

I don't see said box. Can you not do digital preorders?

I tried it out at Best Buy yesterday, and it was pretty fun. It's pretty much a rhythm game with pretty visuals.
According to the guys at Giant Bomb, it feels really huge and encompassing when played in VR mode.

But I mean. You're on a single track and it kinda just does it's thing. Is this like old-school rhythm games back when poo poo just happened/played and you either press the button at the right time, or you didn't? Or is the interaction deeper?

between tomb raider already having a pc release and it seeming to be underwhelming compared to the last one i'm not really too surprised it's not headlining or that nobody seems particularly fired up for it

Seeming to be underwhelming compared to the last one according to who? Almost every review I read said that it took what was a great foundation and added MORE, including much more tombs.

I'm fairly excited for it.
