Knew this one wouldn't be too good. Looks better than the last couple, but AC4 was the only one that I really liked. AC needs to completely change their formula if they wanna be interesting again - I'd go for a Hitman-style thing where there's no open world, just separate missions set in different centuries where you have to use the tools in that year.
Don't care whether they come in Paris or PSX, but here are my predictions:
1. WipEout/Parappa/Syphon Filter reboots 2. Uncharted 4 Co-op mode announced 3. Gran Turismo 7 announced 4. Some crappy David Cage game gets teased 5. Last of Us movie trailer
@ztpayne7 Thanks for all this info! I wouldn't have known about the drums or the vocals thing since I only have a guitar, and the whole "update later this year" thing was a brain fade on my part. Thanks!
Fully agree with you here, the beta hasn't sold me at all. Sure, the presentation is stellar and the sound design is great, but the maps have no sense of scale and it has unlocks and perks and the sort of crap that I hate in online gaming. I hate that vehicles are pickups rather than actual vehicles, I hate that the vehicle controls are terrible and I hate how literally nothing from the older Battlefront games has been carried over. Because of unlocks, games aren't balanced anymore and it's just a completely different game to Battlefront 2, in the wrong way. I hate to play the whole "Battlefield Star Wars" card, but that's honestly the best way to describe it
Though it's kinda ridiculous that they haven't added many AAA games yet (I'm not complaining, it's just you woulda thought that Sony want to cater to a wider audience with PS Plus) but I'm really happy with this lineup. Though I've already played Broken Age, it may be one of my GOTY picks. Super Meat Boy is a hugely fun game too
Played this round a friends house for a couple hours and I'm so sad about this. It's by far the worst AAA game this year (As well as the worst skateboarding game. Yes, it's worse than Simpsons Skateboarding) but it's just depressing how little effort was seemingly put into this. It feels floaty, there's no acid drops, no manual or grind switching, the slam button replaces grind, the mission markers don't work, the online sucks, there's no controller rebinding etc. You can't even bail from a manual or grind, wallrides are automatic, you can't change specials, you can't even turn off or play specific songs.
I'm sorry that I seem a bit whiny, but I'm angry and sad at the same time. Guess I'll have to keep playing Skate 3 and the older Tony Hawks until another one comes out...
Fully agree @get2sammyb . The Events page is an absolute mess and the What's New page is just an advertising platform, and now they added the PS Plus section too. Social features are cool, but folders, a way to customize the menu, favourite friends and a way to go incognito would be appreciated way more
@diggsy I can understand not everyone likes it but this is my first PES since 2006. I played FIFA up until this year, but FIFA 15 annoyed and bored me so much that I switched to PES, and it was worth it
@get2sammyb Same here, really excited to see how it compares to Blood Money but the fact that we need a poster to understand its release is kinda ridiculous. Don't get why they don't just release it in June as a complete thing

Re: Custom PS4 Faceplates Are Coming to Europe Next Month
Shame gold and silver aren't available. Don't see why they can't make them for other countries

Re: Review: Life Is Strange: Episode 5 - Polarized (PS4)
Haven't played this yet and only looked at the score to avoid spoilers, but now I'm really looking forward to it! Sleeper hit of the year
Re: Destiny's Story Was Stitched Together Using Existing Assets in Less Than a Year
Hearing about this pre-release mess, I'm amazed that Destiny launched in the state that it did
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 3.10 Brings New Features
Nice update, but you woulda thought that they would add a search feature for Communities. Kinda just seems like a good idea
Re: Konami Claims That Hideo Kojima Is Just on Holiday
Maybe Sony Fultoned him back to their base
Re: The End of the World Awaits in Life Is Strange: Episode 5
I'm excited and also hugely sad that this is ending.
Re: Review: GEX (PSone)
This, along with Linkin Park and sunglasses, is the perfect recipe for an edgy kid in the mid 90s/2000s
Re: Push Share: What PS4 Screenshots Have You Been Sharing? - Issue 1
@daveyboyps101 Damn that's cool. Mad Max is absolute gold for screenshots
Re: Push Share: What PS4 Screenshots Have You Been Sharing? - Issue 1
@themcnoisy Why thank you, good sir. Someone needs to tally the stars
Seriously tho, I might get this put on a canvas or something. Not bragging or anything but it does look pretty cool. Wasn't much effort tho
Re: Review: Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 1: The Order of the Stone (PS4)
Played about half an hour of this on Steam and immediately refunded it. God, how boring it was
Re: Review: Super Meat Boy (PS4)
Bloody hell I love this game. Frustrating, yet I love it

Re: Big PS4, PS3 Discounts Hit EU PlayStation Store
So getting LBP3, at £10 it's a steal. Anyone who hasn't bought Strider should as well, great game
Re: Far Cry Primal Will Freeze Your PS4 in the Ice Age
I wonder what they'll use for radio towers in prehistoric times...

Re: First Impressions: Just Cause 3 Grapples for Glory on PS4
What a game this looks to be. Can't wait to get my hands on it
Re: Round Up: Push Square's September 2015 Reviews
@JaxonH It would be interesting to do it for every reviewer and see who's the most lenient, most strict etc.

Re: Laura Lays the Smackdown on PS4 Exclusive Street Fighter V
@GlynCR Off topic but your picture is the best
Re: Game of the Month: Top 4 PlayStation Games of September 2015
@themcnoisy It's one of the best Vita games and one of the best ports ever
Re: Game of the Month: Top 4 PlayStation Games of September 2015
@Splat Hell yes, that game is so fun. Got a bit of stick for being a bit "unimaginative" but I love it!
Re: Game of the Month: Top 4 PlayStation Games of September 2015
@get2sammyb HOW CAN YOU GLOAT YOU MONSTER
Seriously Media Molecule are the most charming developers of all time
Re: Game of the Month: Top 4 PlayStation Games of September 2015
Fully agree here. MGS V is excellent but not GOTY material, Tearaway Unfolded is a masterpiece
Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops III's Campaign Can't Help But Curse
Am I the only person who actually enjoys the campaign in COD more than the multiplayer?
Re: Of Course Assassin's Creed Syndicate's Got Microtransactions, You Plum
Meh, I would get annoyed but AC has just melted into a puddle of nothing for me
Re: Sony: We Want to Continue Working with From Software
Do you think Sony remember Demon's Souls? They seem to act like it never happened
Re: Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Cancels Its Stupid Pre-Order Strategy
So glad this actually happened. This was a godawful idea, at least we know the community has some power. Faith restored
Re: Poll: FIFA 16 Versus PES 2016 - Which Footy Sim Has Rocketed Into Your Top Corner?
PES ekes it out for me. I prefer the presentation and licensing of FIFA, but PES' modes are much more fun and the gameplay feels better

Joined! I'm CanUQuack47 if anyone wants to add me, mostly play PES, GTA and Rocket League but I'll be playing more games as they release
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 3.00 Weighs in at 250.3MB
Is it me or have they killed USB streaming? There's no USB app and I can't even stream Spotify when I play

@Bliquid this comment is beautiful
Re: Feature: The 10 Best Worst PSone Covers
Keep the submissions coming, this is one of the most entertaining evenings of my life!
Re: Feature: The 10 Best Worst PSone Covers
Thanks for all the suggestions! For the record I voted for Lone Soldier, but Jounetsu is a thing of beauty isn't it?
Re: Feature: The 10 Best Worst PSone Covers
@get2sammyb That cover looks like the view of someone who picked up a cattle prod and took MDMA. Good pick @adf86
Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Has a PS4 Patch Bigger Than the Game
So it turns out Robomodo were the people who made Ride
I don't know what I was expecting
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 3.00 Rolls Out Tomorrow
The communities feature sounds great, as does the PNG option for pictures. Now we just need them to get rid of the annoying "discover" notification
Re: Sony Really Needs to Stop Teasing Crash Bandicoot's Return
A simple cake will never quench my hunger for a new Crash
That got weird

This better be Crash PS4, they've been teasing us too much...

Re: Review: Rayman (PSone)
Great review! Loving the retro content this week
Re: Review: PES 2016: Pro Evolution Soccer (PS4)
@Matroska Exactly, it's all to do with how big the FIFA name is. Ask someone to name a football game and you'll most probably be told FIFA
Re: Review: PES 2016: Pro Evolution Soccer (PS4)
@john81 Thanks! I'll probably use those sites, and sure, once I've improved my club I might give you a game
