Topic: Your Latest PS4 Purchase

@LN78 once you get used to the controls and interfaces you will (hopefully) fly around as they have been really well optimised for controller. But inventory management does become a bit of a dog late game when you’re managing all your characters and have so much stuff. Overall though it is very serviceable.

The movement is slow versus something like Diablo but I didn’t find it an issue at all.

I can imagine the writing/tone is a bit marmite overall. You’re either gunna love it or hate it.

Good luck unlocking the Ultima Weapon in that game. It was tedious in previous games but it's taken to a whole new level here. It's worth it though.

well i know you had to grind and have luck at getting a certain item to even try to make the Ultima Keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 1. Im still at the very end of the game where I need to level grind a little more to be a little more powerful than the final boss.

I always level grind like crazy in RPG games

Finally caved in and bought Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut for €25. I've been hesitant on whether to buy it now or wait for it to drop in price even more since I don't plan on playing it anytime soon. But as I've mentioned in the past, it's hard to gauge how long these games will be in stock or if they'll continue to drop in price as Sony phases out the PS4. So I figured €25 is a good middle ground and considering it comes with a lot of content and it's the most complete physical edition, I think I'm happy with my purchase.

So after no update on a PS5 version for a year now, I finally acquiesced and pulled the trigger on Biomutant for £14.99.

Bought Void Bastards coz I found a pre owned copy for £6. Awww backloggery

I just picked up all the Naruto Shippunden: Ultimate Ninja Storm games as they’re currently dirt cheap on the store. So while I do like to dip my toes in anime, I know nothing about Naruto, nor anything about the games… apart from that they’re apparently good. If there are any huge Naruto fans out there that wanna give a quick rundown on any info I should know going in, it’d be appreciated.

@RogerRoger thanks for the infodump Rog, sounds like it’ll be a fun and interesting ride… and much obliged about the boosting offer, I might just take you up on it 👊

@RogerRoger brill… it’ll probably be a while before I make it to NS:UNS2 but yeah it’s a very kind offer that I won’t be too proud to accept.

Just picked up Manhunt… I remember one of my mates used to rave about it but for whatever reason, I never gave it a go. Quite intrigued.

No man’s sky. The game is an experience in VR. I hope it has a day-one PSVR patch.

Just bought Wasteland 2: Director's Cut, Children of Zodiarcs, Darkest Dungeon: Ancestral Edition and Spirit of the North for €20 in total. Felt pretty experimental today as I'm not sure I'll like most of these games. Either way, they were all rather cheap so no huge loss if not all of them connect with me.

I bought the Bioshock: collection at a laughable price (about USD$10 for all the games, including add-ons). Weekends will be busy for the rest of the year with this and the rest of the backlog to catch on.

@LtSarge: Please let me know what you think of Spirit of the North. Kind of curious about it.

@LtSarge
Darkest Dungeon is pretty good but unflinchingly brutal! I never did get around to finishing it, you spend a lot of time rotating parties to get them fully levelled only to lose them all attempting the end dungeons. It may well make you swear more than a couple of times. Definitely give it a go through.

@avatarian Have you played the games before?

I’d only originally played Infinite on PS3 because it was a PS+ game at the end of that generation’s lifecycle but loved the first two games when I got the Collection on PS4.

@avatarian I probably won't be playing it anytime soon, but I highly recommend reading @RogerRoger's review of Spirit of the North as he talks about it quite well. In fact, it was because of his review that I even had my sights on this game to begin with. Here's a link: https://www.pushsquare.com/forums/retro_and_other_gaming/user...

@sorteddan Yeah, I can imagine so. That's kinda why I was hesitant in buying it, but I've been watching people play this game and they truly get immersed into it, which piqued my interest. So even if I don't get very far in the game, I think I'd enjoy a brief time with it just to see what the fuss is all about. It was only €5 after all and that includes the Vita version, so now I have another reason to use my Vita!

@Thrillho Actually I played the first Bioshock on my ol' faithful PS3 back in the day. I really enjoyed that one. I have heard good things about Infinite (besides the infamous ending).

@LtSarge I will check Roger's review as I am kind of curious about the sale.

1. Horse Club Adventures
2. Dodgeball Academia
3. Kitaria Fables

Only Dodgeball Academia that have booklet inside. The other games have no booklet or just only a sheet of brochure inside.
All the characters in Dodgeball Academia are written in both English and Japanese names.

And for Horse Club Adventures, it was my first girlie horse riding game ever from all my games collection and i will happy to add another girlie horse riding games.

@Anti-Matter I’ve been interested in Kitaria Fables since it released. I think it’s on sale at the moment, so I might have to pick it up.

@Bentleyma
Also, Kitaria Fables was an indie game that made by Indonesian 🇮🇩 developer, from my country. 😀
Another Indonesian games on modern consoles that have physical release as well. 😊
