Playstation The Official PS4 Thread - Part 13

[Havok83]

From what I saw, Persona 5 is an immense game and takes a long time to beat. I was planning to play that only on my next vacations.

I just started it now and think Im gonna skip it. All Im doing is reading text and listening to dialogue. Its taking too long to get started and I dont have the patience now for a game like this. Im trying to get to a point where I can save and it just keeps going with no break

 

[ComicChick]

i just preordered Shawdow of the Tomb Raider. i'm so far behind in all my gaming

 

[ehh]

I beat GoW and Detroit and have no idea what to play next. I have CoD: Black Ops 3, Witcher 3,Final Fantasy XII, Persona 5, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Kingdom Hearts 1 all on my plate. Ive started each at some point but cant commit. I really wish games these days werent so damn long

I'm happy that games have a nice length to them. Better than being too short IMO.

I feel like 90% of the games released now are open world and/or are built around having long progression systems to keep you coming back. My time is limited and these long games prevent me from playing other games. The worse offender earlier this year was Assassin's Creed. I just had to put that down and move on bc I felt like progression was just too damn slow

 

[ehh]

The only open world games that I tend to play are in the GTA series, but I usually go for more linear titles. I'm not too big on games like Skyrim or Fallout.

Personally, Persona 5 was hands down my favorite game from last year. However, it is very story driven, and has a lot of text. I can understand that if you're not in the mood for a wordy story driven game, how it could put you off.

I'd recommend picking it back up when you are in the mood though. It's long, but worth it, IMO. I mean, very long, lol. But it's stuck with me in a way a game hasn't for awhile. As much as I like FFXV, or Horizon Zero Dawn, Persona 5 will most likely stick in my mind for longer than either of them.

 

[ehh]

I just bought Until Dawn: Rush of Blood and it is incredibly fun. One of the best shooting/horror PSVR games.

Now I need to go back and play the original Until Dawn.

Im about to buy a ps4 pro and a pc monitor that i will use for the console as well. My friend said to get a monitor with HDR (High Dynamic Range) but those are so much more expensive. Does it make a difference to the human eye? My current monitor is like a really old wide screen, so just a basic 4k screen will probably amaze me

HDR will do you better than 4K. Yeah its noticeable. The colors truly pop in games that are HDR enabled. My TV doesnt even have full HDR yet its impressive. I can only imagine how the games would look like with that

The 82.2 sold ps4 is impressive will be at 90+ by the end of the year. Last year holiday time ps4 sold 5.9 million and that is like from black Friday threw xmas or something. So if ps4 were to do the same this year that would put ps4 at 88.1 and that dont even include July- October and the last week of December and like first few weeks of November or something. Lets say it sales around a million those other like 5 months each that would be another 5 million to get it at 93.1 by the end of the year. Ps4 will hit 100 million at some point next year.

 

[eternalinferno]

No word on the 500 million limited edition PS4 being available for preorder in the US?

PS5 & next Xbox release date talk

 

[Dugath]

Currently an Xbox user (always have been), but it always bothered me there were some games I could not play and I am considering getting a PS4 Slim. I just need confirmation I do not need to get a Pro. Will games play on both? I know it is not 4k and thats fine. As long as it plays things like Spider-man, Last of Us and Baseball games I think I would be fine. (doubt the Wife would be too happy with me paying the price for a Pro). just want to be able to play games from both.

Yeah dude you’re good.

 

[Fading]

Yeah. The regular PS4, and Pro both play all PS4 games. The Pro just performs a bit better. It's the same as the regular XB1, and XB1X. Just a boost in frames, lighting, ect, if you want to shell out more $$.

 

[Nathan]

And Sony is back to being their dukey arrogant self.

PlayStation boss explains why people aren't allowed to play with friends on other consoles

 

[Mandon Knight]

Has anyone played 'Strange Brigade', looks like a Uncharted detour but solid all the same, worth getting does anyone know ?

 

[Dave McFly]

dumb question time, if I move an installed game to an external hard drive can I just take the drive and plug into another PS4 like my friend's or would I have to log into my account on his PS4 to run that game from the hard drive?

You have to log into your own account, but otherwise there shouldn't be any problems

Unless they finally show some solid gameplay of what the heck we'll be doing in this game, I'm not as interested anymore.

I heard part of the challenge will be in the traversal. Maybe in this game instead of pushing the left stick forward, you will have deeper control input with challenging terrain

but you're definitely right, they should show some clear cut gameplay finally. We've gotten enough of celebrity reveals/cryptic weird stuff

Kind of overdue at this point lol.
