Since it's on sale, how is the DMC HD collection? I've been way of the "hd collections" since the Silent Hill one.

It fixes DMC1. It puts Jump on X finally.

Oh, Christ. Maybe I'll give this clone a shot then. Can't go too wrong for $2.

It was worth about $2. Simple Unity-based clones with classic BM kinda levels and mobile design decisions. Crossbuy too.

Muramasa The Demon Blade - Vita

Steins;Gate: Linear Bounded Phenogram (basically Steins;Gate after stories) - Vita

Nope. As far as I'm aware there aren't any Japanese language only games on the US PSN.

That said, I definitely recommend the PS4 one. It's easy enough to get around the menus, and worse case there's a good TL guide up on gamefaqs for it. If enough people are actually interested I can make a goon community for it.

There's actually quite a few PS1 Classics that are released on US PSN.

I just picked up the AC Syndicate Season Pass to go over the $100get$15 back deal.. For $5 more I could've gotten the digital game and junked my physical copy this week. :/

It's got a lot of the same problems as 3, exacerbated by being on a portable console where fine control can be a problem. There's also a mechanic where changing your clothes both changes your notoriety and the way you move. It's neat in theory, but is kinda bad in execution.

While I didn't end up playing through the whole thing basically because of those two problems, Aveline is a much more likable and entertaining character than Connor, and I wish she had gotten a full console game instead of him.

Has anybody played the HD version for consoles? Does it make anything any better?

The HD version still has performance issues and subpar sound. But overall I enjoyed the original game and due to that, I enjoy the HD version. It takes the simplified combat of 3 and fun exploration of 2/Bro I felt. The Mexico levels were some of the best and the Bayou is a fun open world area.

Man, there's a lot of hate for Killzone. I thought it was fun and the Multiplayer is a blast. Single Player I had more fun than many shooters except for a few space missions and those stupid wave defense sections near the end. CoOp sucks for the same reason Evolve does. Everyone needs to be on the ball for it. *shrugs*

I'm also curious about the extent of the data that's transferred during backup/restore. For example, would P.T. make the transition from old HDD to backup to new HDD?

Yes it does, that's pretty much the only way to preserve it. I did it with my transition from 1TB to 2TB last November.

Regarding TLoU. While its fun there are some jarring gameplay issues. Such as Such as Ellie and Tess being seemingly invisable to the infected and enemy humans, sometimes even pushing them aside as they sneak around with me. The only time they get attacked is if the infected is already spotted me. Of course this helps prevent the game from becoming an annoying escort mission, but also takes away from the tension knowing I only really need to think about my self.

That was their effort to avoid worse gameplay issues. It's more of a narrative issue than a gameplay one. They recently employed a better shared cover system with Uncharted 4, so maybe it was limitations.

I can't think of many games that don't have any sort of ludonarrative dissonance.

So, I recently bought a pre-owned PS4 (reasonably sure the HD was formatted) . I don't have PS+ anymore but I'm able to play multiplayer on Bloodborne (I think) , Uncharted 4, and TLoU. Do these games not require PS+ for multiplayer or is something else going on?

Some probably left it activated (this has nothing to do with data on the HDD but rather account management). Or you activated your free trial. Those games do require Plus for Multiplayer.

I believe you just need to activate the PS4 as her account's primary console (maybe it doesn't do this when you create a secondary account on a PS4?). That shouldn't deactivate yours or do anything like that, it's just making that PS4 her primary console and I think that's the requirement for sharing games with all accounts on the system.

Primary System gets all rights to games from an account without always being signed in or if PSN is down. Any other system can access account games ONLY WHEN online AND signed into said account.
