Anyone recommend assassin's creed odyssey? It's tempting price point. I can't decide between that and kingdom Hearts 3.

Hello,
1) I am looking for 2D оr 2.5D beat em up (with some shoot/firing elements). For Co-Op! PS4

Good graphic, skills, weapons, upgrades - rich gameplay.
I can't wait to get Streets Of Rage 4 :smashin:


2) From now on it can be for one player (or two in Co-Op mode) "

Also run and jump / (shot) games with well-developed physics / kinetics of motion, maneuvering against a changing environment ... "riding the wave", sliding, leaping.

"Master aerial agility, sliding, leaping, flying in Zero G, and blasting ..." (for "Matterffal")

It could be "Unravel 2"?
-also top down (Co-Op) shooters or beat em up.
"Matterffal" (but is it for 1 player)

May be I will buy Trine 4, Dragon's Crown Pro...

  • I have no interest in games with 8 bit graphics similar to - "FIGHT'N RAGE"...

3. Would you recommend brain teasers, physics-based puzzler, but not slow and time-consuming puzzles / puzzles, etc. (aka LIMBO), and those that require / develop fast reactions, combinative, spatial ability and logical reasoning within seconds (up to minutes) (one game/level =~ 5-30 Min). More logic, physics (mechanics), combinations ... PS 4

some simple examples that i find on the net:

World of Goo /Nintendo... android/
Deru: The art of Cooperation (PC...)
PixelJunk Shooter
Tricky towers.

  • It could be for Android also. - at times of travel

@Davehunt I have only played yakuza 0 but loved it. Very gritty main story but with really quirky and fun side stories. Gameplay is probably on par with Arkham games and fun (but maybe a bit button mash if your thing is very precise combat). I got kiwami on ps plus and have yet to play it but very tempted by kiwami 2 price. They are massive games though, I beat the game and about 50 side stories and game was less than 20 % complete!

Anyone know of where to get decently priced Move controllers (in the US)? A third party seller on Amazon apparently is selling pairs for $177 together, but I definitely want to shop around before committing to a price that high (that, and there's always a bit of a trust issue with 3rd party sellers).

Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)

@Arugula, I checked Gamestop online and they were out, but after digging around a bit I found another games store called eStarLand (they've been around since the 90's and have generally good reviews), and they had PS3 era Move Essentials packs going for $60 each (each one comes with a Move Motion Controller, PS3 camera, & demo disc), so I bought two. Just over $120, so I figured I'd bite.

Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers

@RR529 I think @Arugula was talking about checking your local GameStop, not GameStop Online. Just because GameStop Online doesn't have any doesn't necessary mean your local one doesn't.

@Davehunt I haven’t done the math, but you can almost get all those games, minus FFVIIR with your budget. I think most of them are on sale with the Big in Japan sale right now.

@Davehunt That's enough to keep you busy for 800 hours... 😂
Code Vein is a Souls wannabe, so I'd play that only after finished the original games.
For the moment I'll go with these:

DARK SOULS: REMASTERED
Devil May Cry 5
Monster Hunter: World

Since DS and MH are demanding and rich in content, I'd wait to play FF7R so you could buy it this summer during another sale.

@Davehunt Are you looking to get these digitally or the physical versions? I've seen DSR for under 20 quid for the disk, but it is 35 quid currently on the PS store. I'm sure it will be on sale in the not too distant future though.

Thanks all for replies, in the end, I went with Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Dark souls 2,3. Basically, the reason I went for the Dark soul's games is that I am playing Sekiro alot atm and Sekiro, as made me enjoy hard games and get used to dieing alot and keeping my temper and focus in check and to keep going at it no matter how annoying it can be wiping for hours and I already own Bloodborne so thought I'd add Dark souls to the list as well. Also I am only up to Genichiro, atm so probs gonna be playing Sekiro, anyway for alot longer which would give me time to add Dark Souls: Remastered.

Brothers: a tale of two sons is € 3,99 now and I'd like to know if anyone here played it and if it has any ICO vibes.

@andreoni79 Brilliant game, has all the feels. You control each brother with a stick, so the older brother with the left stick and the younger with the right stick. It may sound cumbersome but it works! I don't recall getting any Ico vibes from it personally, but I played on 360 so it's been a long time.

@andreoni79 Yeah, it’s been a while since I played it as well, but it’s great! As far as Ico vibes, yes there is the whole “progress through the game areas with your companion along side you” but like @JohnnyShoulder say.a, as opposed to Ico where you control and play as the boy Ico and have to constantly help Yorda and hold her hand to get her through the game, in Brothers you play as and control both brothers - neither is an NPC really. The control scheme is unique and fresh, the story is really well done, imo. And for 3.99 it’s a steal. Don’t expect it to quite be Ico, but it’s also got an artistic design and fairytale type setting almost. The story is also subdued, but definitely more overt than Ico. As I recall, it’s not too long either - seems like probably just 3-4 hours as I recall. Highly recommend at that price!

andreoni79

@JohnnyShoulder @Th3solution Thanks for the feedback. What I liked about it in the reviews is the control scheme and the idea of the two cooperating so I'm getting this now.
I also got the Little Nightmare season pass for € 1,99.
I know quantity isn't quality, but honestly I don't think it is wise to spend € 20 or even more for 3/4 hours of gaming, especially if I'm not sure I'll like it.

@KratosMD Get the one with SotN. I have it as a PS1 game in PS3 and I haven’t played enough if it, but from what I’ve played it’s an excellent Metroidvania game and worthy of its praise. I think it stands up along side modern 2D games honestly.

@KratosMD How do you feel about the Switch’s controller? Personally I really don’t like the D-Pad, which I use to play retro games over a stick. SoTN is ace by the way, I played it through Dracula X Chronicles on Vita which has a great D-Pad.

I'm tempted by Ghostbusters in the latest PSN sale, anyone played it and feels like sharing some thoughts? I watched a bit of a playthrough and love that it has the real cast but wondered if the gameplay holds up.

I am a Dark Souls and Bloodborne fan, but I prefer Dark Souls to Bloodborne, would you say that The Old Hunter's DLC is worthwhile for a real Dark Souls fan? (I.E Is it closer to Dark Souls than Bloodborne?) I've tried it briefly, loved the rivers of blood, but haven't seen much more than that.
