Topic: PS4 recommendation thread

@MikeSteel Horizon Zero Dawn is a third person open world game. You fight robot dinos!

@JohnnyShoulder
Looks good, with the sale on I might even get the ultimate edition. Also the Spider-Man deluxe.

So have been playing Days Gone for a couple of hours and noticing that the sound is pretty glitchy, is it just mine or is it a common thing?

@MikeSteel I also wouldn't be too worried about missing a game in a current sale if you can't afford it or anything, they come up almost constantly and HZD often crops up in them.

@Ralizah Sorry for the late reply as I just joined Push Square 2 hours ago. I have both God of War and Spider-Man, both of which are fantastic and very polished. I may be in the minority but I preferred Spider-Man to God of War. I'm also not a huge fan of overly cinematic games but Spider-Man gets going pretty quickly and I preferred the pace overall. What makes Spider-Man really stand out for me is the speed at which you can explore your surroundings not only horizontally but vertically too! Being Spider-Man, you don't need to find a plane or a helicopter, you just swing around or run up the side of buildings. That makes it pretty unique, and a ton of fun, compared to the other open world games. With the myriad of ways you can take down the bad guys, I also found it less repetitive than other games.

@klky Thanks for the recommendation. The ease of locomotion is definitely something that gives points to Spider-Man, as I love big, open games with joyously free movement. Both Breath of the Wild on the Switch and Gravity Rush on the PS Vita/PS4 benefited greatly from that.

Having properly gone through the PS store during the DOP sale, a few titles caught my eye which I would like to check out at some point.

Uncharted 4
Uncharted Lost Legacy
The Last Of Us Remastered
Batman Arkham Knight

I reckon I would enjoy all of these. Which would you most recommend? I’ve not played any of the previous Uncharted or Batman titles.

@klky Hi, I would recommend (in order):

1) The Last Of Us
2) Uncharted 4
3) Batman Arkham Knight

Haven't played Uncharted Lost Legacy.

@Kidfried @WanderingBullet Awesome, thank you both.

@Kidfried The Last Of Us Remastered? That’s ok, it’s priced accordingly. Thank you.

@RogerRoger Thanks very much for the helpful feedback!

@klky No problem, man. Both TLOU and UC4 are great games. Arkham Knight's really good too except that gameplay can get pretty repetitive at times.

How are the .Hack RPGs? They currently have a big sale going on for PS+ members, and they have a collection of .Hack RPGs for $15 (it consists of 3 remastered PS2 games, and a 4th entry newly made just for the collection, though I'm not sure how big that last one is).

I usually prefer to grab previous gen remasters on Switch, but this seems like a lot of content for a great price (and of course the collection isn't currently on Switch).

After checking my funds, I decided to buy that .Hack collection that's on sale. Probably won't play it soon since I recently completed Tales of Zestiria, but I'm excited to eventually try it nonetheless.

So I am looking to get a PS4 again to play some of the RPGs I missed. Is it worth it you think to dip into the PS4. I have a switch, but the game ports just aren't holding up for me...

@scubydo You’re certainly going to get a biased opinion on here, but I would unequivocally say “Yes!” The only reason not to get a PS4 to catch up on some of the excellent RPGs and other games that have come out recently is if you want to wait for the PS5 since it will be backwards compatible. But it will probably be close to a year and a half until that’s released so I very much would encourage you to get a PS4. If RPGs are your thing, you would have plenty with the likes of Horizon Zero Dawn, Persona 5, Dragon Quest 11, AC Origins and Odyssey, Bloodborne and all the FromSoftware RPGs, A bunch of Yakuza games, The Witcher 3, ....
So, yeah - there’s plenty. Lots of excellent Western RPGs and even some JRPGs.

Edit: I should have just referred you here:

Scan the list and see if anything strikes your fancy. There’s lots more even after these to make a PS4 well worth your purchase.

Any of you guys play Vampyr on PS4? I played a few hours of it on PC with Game Pass but it ran very poorly for me and I stopped. They have it on sale on PSN right now. If it runs better on console I'll pick it up.

@Splat I played it on an OG Xbox One and it ran fine for me. Not sure if you have a PS4 Pro but I am sure it will run better on that then an OG Xbox One. I have read from several sources that it did run the poorest on PC.

@Tasuki Yeah, I have a Pro. I really don't understand why it ran so poorly for me on PC? My set up is far from a beast but can play most games at high or at the very least mid settings. I was getting really bad performance even on the lowest settings with Vampyr.

@Splat I couldn't tell you I am not techy enough to even begin to understand computers besides the basics, but everyone I know who played it on PC has had problems with it

Hello guys, I am a new one here, I wanna know aht d ya all think about AC Origins? I played Odyssey but story part was lacking. And I heard Origins aint that bad
