Topic: PS4 recommendation thread

With Left 4 Dead, Dead Island and Resident Evil I have enough Zombie games, but thanks anyways.

Metro Redux is one of the best games on the system, the amount of content its incredible, played those games on PC when they came out (and was searching for something to play on my PS4), but having a full week of Metro just remind me why i thought both games were the GOTY of their respective years

The atmosphere of the metro games are unrivalled, the world that 4A games created is just incredible.

On a side note, the books are amazing too

I might give Metro another chance. When I played Last Light I didn't even get passed the prison. The fail states really pissed me off. If I persevere I expect it will get better. Though I won't go back to the PS3 version, I'll get Redux for PS4 at a decent price.

They are definitely diamonds in the rough and not for everyone

they have a lot of problems and no one cant deny that, but if you can overlook them they are something you HAVE to experience... Redux solved A LOT of those problems too (and the framerate its locked at 60fps in beatiful 1080p).

One couldeven argue that the original Metro 2033 had its charm with all those problems, like if you were actually down there, in the metro

I'll add DmC Definitive Edition to the list now that I've had some enough time with it. Lots of content, fast, fluid and, most importantly, fun hack 'n' slash action. Well worth it, especially if you enjoy action games and haven't played this before. Just go in with an open mind and there's a lot of good to be found. I can't believe this game had so many haters, but most of it was over stupid, petty bs.

If you haven't done it on PS3/Vita then I'd recommend Sound Shapes. In my five years of primarily PlayStation gaming it's the best first/second party game I've played. Simple to pick up, exceptional music, beautiful, hair-pullingly challenging in Death Mode and most importantly of all it's tonnes of fun.

Which is the better game to start with; dark souls II or bloodborne? I don't have very much time to play games and I have heard that these games require a lot of time to invest. However, both of them seem really good, are they about equally difficult?

Infamous Second Son is a beautiful graphics game. I love the facial movements and the expressions just match perfectly. My other games are Lego The Movie...sorry, but's it's just a fun lego platform game that is very addicting to my wife and I, Tomb Raider...love the graphics and gameplay, Akiba's Trip Undead And Undressed...just an amazing game and Knack. Sorry about Knack, but I think it's fun while waiting for Ratchet and Clank or a new Jak and Daxter...yup, I love platform adventures and party and puzzle games. I'm sorry to say that I do like Murdered Soul Suspect too...even though it's a complete copy of the movie Ghost.

Are any of the free to play games any good on PS4?

warframe is alright, almost like Destiny behind a couple time/paywalls.

Bloodborne. The Dark Souls II rerelease is more difficult (not in a good way, but in a 'high level enemies start popping up early in the game' way) and has worse level design.

Loadout is pretty good if your into online shooters. Also DC Universe is decent.

WarFrame is awful. I tried it on and off for a few months and hated it.
I bought Destiny and haven't looked back. Well worth the spend.

Axiom Verge is most excellent. 11 hours in, lovely game so far, the kind of game I'd bother platinuming.

The thing that keeps me from getting it is how much it looks and plays like Super Metroid.

It could be a blessing but I've never actually played a Metroid or Castlevania game before! Although I've played a handful of so called metroidvania games so I have something to compare this with.

I'm really enjoying Axiom Verges atmosphere and interesting sci-fi storyline. The graphics are nice and the music can be pretty great. It's nice knowing it's all one guys vision, too.

Get it!

I have Super Metroid so if I want to play Axiom Verge I would play Super Metroid if that makes sense.

I guess. Dunno though, it has different levels/music/weapons and story so it's a bit like not playing say.. Tomb Raider 3 because you played 2 and the mechanics are the same. Would still say give it a go for the price, more so if you already know you'll like that type of game

As someone who's played both, I think it depends on how much you love the Metroidvania genre. Aside from a few tweaks, powerups, and new ideas, Axiom Verge is basically Super Metroid on steroids. If you want another game like that to dive into, then this is about as good as it gets.
