I really hope one of the games is a return of Prince of Persia

I hope we get a release date soon. I’m really excited to play this one after loving Until Dawn.

My favorite game on the PS4, so yes I will be checking out the doc. I am curious to see how it went from pitch through production to final product. Sometimes the behind the scenes story can really enhance appreciation of the game.

Always up for a good shmup and this looks like it will scratch that itch. Digging the synthwave score too!

@Flaming_Kaiser Exactly! I don't know why more people can't see it this way. If you're willing to pay $10-11 for a two-hour movie in a theater, which you can only see once there, then why wouldn't you pay $20-25 for a 5+ hour game that you can replay endlessly?

Just Dance 2017 has to be a deal breaker for a lot of people

But what will people whine about now? The void must be filled!

I'm loving this so far. Road Rage feels as intense and insane as it ever did. I played it on loop at least 20 times last night. Got 19 takedowns in one round. I like the Spotify integration too. Already had some playlists which fit the action perfectly.

Still a must buy for me as a huge fan of the Burnout series. I am sure many of the technical issues will be patched.

why wasn't it delayed so it could launch with this feature? they could have done an Aim bundle and Sony could have moved more of that peripheral.

Always interested to see what they get up to. Hope it’s part of the Anthology as that’s a great title for horror. I would love a release date for Man of Medan too. I need more to put on my calendar for the first quarter of 2019.

I’ve got an original OLED model, but I may pick up a blue one just in case it ever dies since the price will shoot up once production ceases. I still love mine and play it often. I just started adding PS1 games to it (via PS3 transfer).

Wow, after reading the comments, I am realizing that I do not put in as much time as I thought on gaming compared to other gamers here (516 hours for me). But these were my top three games and I was surprised by how much I put in the top two because I enjoyed my hours with them so much that I did not realize the time passing:
Red Dead Redemption 2 – 97 hours
God of War – 91 hours
Spider- Man – 58 hours

I really want the soundtrack and instrumental score to be released on digital streaming services. I also hope they put them out on vinyl with beautiful artwork.

It is cool that they keep it period specific. It's hard to imagine that some of the most often played Christmas songs are so old.

Papers, Please and SOMA have been in my wishlist for a while. I’ll be bringing the Vita home for Christmas break so PP is a perfect game.

That bear chase was epic. Loved that it ended with some kicks!

Shadow of the Tomb Raider and LEGO DC Super-Villains at half-price. That is why I wait on games released in the last quarter of the year. Patience literally pays off.

@glassmusic It's up there now. Just search "Synthwave" in the search box.

Finally! I have been anxiously waiting for this game to get a release date. I am not the best at rhythm games, but this one just looks like a lot of fun.

It wasn’t really in doubt that it would be masterful but it’s nice to see it confirmed as a masterpiece. Counting the hours until I can play it.

A good rule of thumb:
Does it come out between August and November? Do you want to save money? If yes to both then wait and buy it for 25-50% off at Black Friday/Cyber Monday. It’s that simple. For example, I got Mafia III and the Bioshock Collection for half price less than two months after each released. Don’t complain if you choose not to be a smart consumer of games.

92.742 GB downloaded and installed in 2h20m....not bad. Now only 6 days and 11 hours to wait...ugh!

Cleared out some space on the hard drive so when autodownload hits then it’s smooth sailing. Here’s hoping I cleared enough with the inevitable day one patch.

Yes! So people can finally stop complaining about this topic.

Great! Picking up Thumper and Superhot VR.

Great! I got the PS3 version, but never got around to playing it. I would happily get a remastered version rather than dusting off the PS3.

So happy to hear that it turned out well. I loved the Robot Rescue demo and was hoping that we would get a full experience.

I'm excited to try Friday the 13th. It is the perfect month for it.

It is like listening to "video game analyst" Michael Patcher. It is surprising when so much credence is given to people who make so many false predictions.

Spider-Man all weekend. I’ve been playing it since it released on Thursday at midnight. Put about 10 hours in so far, mostly in exploring, street crimes, and side missions. Leveling up fairly quickly at 11 already (50 looks like the cap). I'm loving it. Insomniac does brilliant game design. Just like Ratchet and Clank, you feel underpowered at first but they introduce new skills and gadgets that make you into a real hero. It does feel heavily influenced by the Arkham games, but it has a distinct personality and humor. The world building is deep and intriguing. The combat and swinging mechanics are perfectly honed. Neither is super complicated but mastery of them is a satisfying journey. The easter eggs sprinkled throughout the game show the care and love that they have for Spider-Man’s history and the whole Marvel comic universe.

So happy to hear the good news! There was so much hype that I was not sure it would live up to it. Friday cannot come soon enough.

I am on board for this project. I agree that his telling of the tales was one of the highlights of the game. I can’t count the number of times that I postponed docking my boat to hear the rest of a story. Must buy for me!

I did not know that Frogwares was making this game. I have little interest in Lovecraftian fiction, but the company's take on the detective genre with Sherlock was right up my alley so I will be picking this one up after seeing the demo. Thank you for calling attention to the game @get2sammyb as it would have flown under my radar.

Yes! Dreams...I mean nightmares do come true. Too bad about the release date as Halloween season would have been perfect. I’ll definitely replay Until Dawn in October and finally pick up The Inpatient.

Any new trophies added?

There was a (motion) digital comic #0 included with the pre-order. Is that part of this series? The art looks similar.

That is literally the exact type of video that I was hoping to see. It's a gameplay series of videos like those released in advance of the 2010 game. So beyond excited for this one.

I am not sure it would have the same appeal for me in a non-VR setting. Part of the charm when I play it on PSVR is the isolation of having to defuse the device in front of me that the instructors cannot see. The VR player has a tactile sense of manipulating the device and the instructors cannot peak at it. I am happy more people get to try it, but I do not think it will provide the same intensity of experience.

I would love it if they did another "Gameplay Series" like they did with the original. They had a narrator, with a great voice, who broke down the gameplay into "Introduction", "Life in the West", "Multiplayer", and "Weapons & Death". They are all still available for viewing on Rockstar's YouTube channel.

That’s a fantastic idea. I’m loving every new thing that I learn about this game. The hands-on preview pushed me into preorder mode. So ready for September.

@oatmealwarrior92 it’s killing me too. So frustrating to try over and over.

Was it last year that the ticket site completely crashed for everyone? That was a nightmare.

These early games are so hard to jump back into for me. The low polygon count makes them visually unappealing compared to some other classic systems with 2D graphics or even 16-bit. The old control schemes are a challenge to adjust to also.

For me, I would rather play a remaster/rebuild like the Crash trilogy. My memories of these PS1 games are nice how they exist. I would prefer not to have them shattered by a mini-console of the unaltered versions. That does not mean that others cannot have fun with it though, it is just not for me.

I was wondering why they had never developed the concept into a full game. Definitely at the head of my PSVR wishlist.

Pro-tip: Do not book a day off work that far in advance unless your employer is a pain about early booking. I did that with Uncharted 4 and wasted a vacation day.

@Tasuki Except Titanfall 2 was more well reviewed partially because it included a solid single-player campaign.

If we get long gameplay chunks for these games then I can't see why there is disappointment. That is literally what many people have been begging to have more. These are four strong exclusives that showcase what the PS4 is all about.

If it is true that the PS5 development is ramping up then why would they spend time with a bunch of new announcements either? 2019 is building up as a banner year. The Last of Us launched in the twilight of PS3's peak so it would be fitting that Part II closes out the main chapter of PS4's peak.

@RogerRoger Exactly! I think it would be great if they alternated Chloe/Nadine and Sam/Sully sagas. I would love to see Cutter make a cameo too.

@RogerRoger I am totally on board as long as it does not involve Nate. I feel like that arc was tied up perfectly and we do not need a prequel or sequel to that storyline.

I loved Lost Legacy. I believe a different studio could create a great Uncharted game. Would it reach the height of Naughty Dog? Maybe no, but I am not ready to leave these characters (and voice actors) behind.
