Re: Rumour: Sony's Building a Supercharged PS4 Console

TomKongPhooey

reading between the lines here a paranoid guy would be thinking that Sony is trying to tell us the PS4 in it's current state will struggle to run PSVR titles and we are all getting taken for a ride if we buy this VR headset and don't go also invest in PS4.5 bundle that will inevitabily be sold as a package deal with the headset in the future. Mark my paranoid words!

@gamer83 I ain't been a Nint3ndo boy since N64, might be time to look into a NX.

Re: Rumour: Sony's Building a Supercharged PS4 Console

TomKongPhooey

Time to start stock piling my games library. Think this might be my last console purchase. I've done the whole PC gaming thing and gave it up for a simpler life. Not into cutting and pasting my consoles now also(bad enough having to stick a 2TB HDD in my PS4 when I bought it as it was). 3 decades of my gaming lifestyle and finally the middle men have killed the gaming industry with their greed.

@joeblogs True. I think I'm just expecting their full announcement too early. This announcement is obviously to get the info and price out there. All the other options Im moaning about will most likely follow closer to release date. I would have been gutted with 2 cameras also lol Up to know I don't think there has been much need for the camera.

Re: Reaction: PlayStation VR Clears the Price Hurdle Cleanly

@joeblogs personally what about you? I was talking about myself. I mean no disrespect buddy but if Sony want me to fork out my hard earned for a new piece of kit I'd expect a bundle for everything I'd need to make it work.
The point I was more making is it's Sony's place to give us a full working kit not a cut down marketing price to try and undercut others. I would like to see 'options' available from them.
Yes I know I can buy at retailers, I know they will do bundles in the shops. For someone like me tho who has trusted sony this time round (was MS last gen) and has went totally digital on all my purchases this gen so as I don't ever have to go near a retailer again (yes I'm the gullible sucker paying over the odds on day one for games just because it's digital) I'm left at this moment with only one option to purchase seperately or obviously pass on VR.
I don't want a marketers price to sell a product I would like a price for a complete VR system to use on my PS4. It's really that simple McFly I know you guys are excited by the price. I would be too if it was a truthful price that got me everything I need. I want VR to work this time round. I want to be using VR. I've got my own VR dreams also but I'm just saying with the info Sony has released so far at this point I think Im for leaving it.
For me it'll not be a day one purchase now unless Sony offer a VR bundle with a complete price. I ain't going to any retailers this time round. I've spent way too long queuing outside retailers in the past, ain't happening anymore. Thats all I meant. Enjoy bud

With no move controllers or camera in the price I can say happily 'I'm Out'. Nevermind the the monetary extra the UK are paying. That's annoying but not putting required accessories in with the headset just to keep the price below competitors is the final straw on VR for me. I want a price for everything I need not leaving it up to retailers to make up bundles. Thanks for price but no thanks.

Re: Your PlayStation Plus Games for March Have Been Revealed

TomKongPhooey

2 games on PS4 I never ever would have thought about buying. I'll give them a bash because they are free but I used to be a gold subscriber(xb360) and I must admit I feel like a second class citizen with the PS+ freebie titles over the last few months. Step up your game please Sony. Give us an eye catcher of a freebie title so we can all stop moaning lol.

Re: Feature: 5 Firmware Updates the PS4 Desperately Needs in 2016

TomKongPhooey

Anything that was on the ps3 but isnt available on ps4 is just wrong. I want all of the above and feel it shouldnt be cut from the ps4 only to make a big announcement later on in the consoles lifespan. That's the bit that annoys me. What was avail on ps3 should never have been removed from the next gen of the console.

Re: A Portion of The Division's Open World Has Been Cut from the Finished Game

TomKongPhooey

@Shellcore That's my view these days and with Amazon etc letting you pre-order for free and with no penalties to cancel before the release date then I'm all for abusing the system they are putting in place to get a free go at playing and see if it's worthwhile forking out my hard earned for it.
I've it pre-ordered on Amazon but I'll deffo not be buying from them as I've my whole PS4 collection on digital this generation so I'll be buying from PSN if I like the game. It's worth a few clicks to get a beta code. deffo.

Re: Time to Tell Sony Which PS2 Games You Want on PS4

TomKongPhooey

@crazyKcarter @themcnoisy
I agree with both of you here. Yes PS need to pay for the inclusion of Trophies etc but £23 for 2 of my all time favourite games is in my eyes just a bit steep. GTA SA & VC would be mine right now if they were below the £20 mark for both. It's ok by me if Sony want to make a few quid to let us play PS2 titles and I'll happily pay to play them on my new console but keep the price level across the board. Charging £8.99 for some titles but £11.49(11.99 not sure exactly) for others seems like greed. Make it a fixed flat rate for a title to be upgraded for PS4 use. Going forward it makes it seem fair in my eyes anyway lol

Re: PSX 2015: PS4's First PS2 Games Launch Tomorrow

TomKongPhooey

at the prices quoted I'll maybe hold off until they drop a little especially since the 2 I'm interested in GTAVC and GTASA both weren't in the video. Come to think of it none of the GTA's were shown. Last minute additions maybe.?.

Might also give Fantavision a whirl when the prices drop a little, it looks interesting. I don't recall that game first time around..

Re: Guide: UK Black Friday 2015 Deals - Every PS4, PS3, and PlayStation Vita Sale

TomKongPhooey

I've went digital this generation even stuck a 2TB HDD in my ps4. I don't have any games on disc at all this time round. For poor souls like me this is sickening. Whats the point in digital games if PSN keeps the prices so high compared to the shops. Digital PSN games imho should always be cheaper than the RRP and there should be stunning deals on PSN during black friday. The silence about digital and the pricing structure is deafening.

Re: Site News: Vote for Your Push Square Forums Game of the Year

TomKongPhooey

Lots of love for Rocket league and I'm glad to see it doing well. Such a game. It deserves all the votes it's getting here. I also went for a rank outsider it seems - Assassin's Creed Syndicate. I really loved AC this time around so much so that Im 2 or 3 missions off 100% in it. Pity a lot of ppl didn't give it a chance after Unity as it's a vast improvement imho. Top of my list tho is Witcher 3 and in my opinion GOTY all day every day although I haven't played Fallout or MGS. They could be up there but not getting them to Xmas.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 93

TomKongPhooey

Lotta love for Fallout 4. Never played any of the games. might pick it up at xmas and see what the hype is about.
I'll be playing black ops 3 as I really enjoyed the beta and it's the first COD i've enjoyed since COD4 played to lvl 7 last night after work and it was exactly as i remember in the beta, stable, fun to play again and very very fluid. Loving how the game plays as a normal run and gun cod but with the added wall walking etc when needed. If you've ever like the cod franchise folks it's very back to the old skool type games. FUN. Enjoy ur weekend guys.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Assassin's Creed Syndicate Fails to Outsell Predecessors

TomKongPhooey

@tenderbeefcake fair point well made. Your right being there in the game goes out the window with the glowing deffo and I can see it ruining the game alright for some. I must admit tho I'm really enjoying it either way.

@gamer83 I would give it a 8 also. Your right it probably doesn't match AC2 but it's up beside it imho or maybe even Black Flag depending on my mood but overall it's a very solid game, very playable so far for me anyhow very enjoyable. I think Evie is very solid, not too fond of her bro tho (and even if I get slated) she is also more appealing to follow around London in 3rd person than the guys. For me anyhow lol. I love how you can switch between the two characters so I don't gotta play with Jacob too often

Re: UK Sales Charts: Assassin's Creed Syndicate Fails to Outsell Predecessors

TomKongPhooey

Have any of you guys actually played this game (gamer83 excluded)? This is a very solid AC game. Yeah it's the same thing run around, climb towers/buildings, fight mobs, assassinate some chump or other but at the same time for fans of the AC franchise who like playing their games so long as the game isnt a bag of mess this is a great title with 2 very different characters to play with. Getting around is different with both characters, fighting is great with either and both can be as stealthy as you want to invest skillpoints in.
I've played this game all day today and I have nothing for praise for it. Yes I liked Unity more than most and am an AC fan from the start of series but I also like a game to be playable like any gamer. I didnt like how unstable Unity was either but Syndicate plays miles better than I've seen a AC play in a long time. I ain't seen any frame rate issues or half of peoples heads or anything. This game is a quality AC title to add to any fan's collection imho. How PushSquare rated it a 6 out of 10 I'm at a loss about.

Re: Review: Pumped BMX + (PS4)

TomKongPhooey

This looks pretty cool but with a 5/10 and the fact it was a mobile game first I'll give it a miss.

Not to mention if I need a fix of BMX madness it hard to beat a bit of GTA5 or GTAO in passive.

Re: Laura Lays the Smackdown on PS4 Exclusive Street Fighter V

TomKongPhooey

@Jazzer94 Oh I know your right, but right or wrong big boobs attracts male players and there are more male gamers than female( i would think anyhow). At the end of the day they are looking for the most sales and sex appeal sells video games. I don't think the Tomb Raider franchise would have been as popular or famous if It was a dude with a larger than normal crotch area. (The fact that these boobs are always programmed to bounce around like they are made of jelly also doesn't help.) It does however aid sales to the male gamer who like it or not like that type of gaming experience. It's the way of the world and I honestly can't see it changing because I can't see males changing. Programmers and male game makers included.
I myself favour a backside kinda gal but boobs are the main attraction to the male of the species and is what keeps men interested in women initially.

I know I'm gonna get slated for this post but I'm just saying how the world works. Honest.

Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Breaks Its Neck on PS4

is this really a vid of the finished product? OMG are we back to PSone days with the graphics? Not to mention the issues with the gameplay. Never was one for skating games as Im useless at them but I can see anything else but this flopping big time. Wow just wow.
