Re: Review: Metal Gear Survive (PS4)

TricksterTyler

I've never played a MGS game and don't plan on making this my first regardless of what score it has on here. $10 for an extra save slot is absolutely ridiculous and I will never support always-online for single player content. Didn't buy GT Sport for that same reason.

@MrGawain fair point. I can't really argue against you there, everyone has their own likes and dislikes in this hobby. Also, I'm looking forward to buying a Switch when some more of the big hitters (Pokemon, Metroid, Fire Emblem) come out. But I'm loving my PS4 at the moment and I personally think it had an excellent year when it comes to games. I'm glad you are enjoying your Switch so much!

@MrGawain we gonna pretend Hell Blade, Gravity Rush, Yakuza, Nier, and Horizon don't exist then? Definitely different from what the mainstream usually play and all released this year. By your argument, Switch got Zelda 5000 and Mario 10000. Yawn
(Just so you know, I love Nintendo and owned both a Wii U and 3DS. I'm super happy with where the Switch is at and the games look amazing. Just don't appreciate the blanket statement that PS4 games have no originality.)

I just finished P5 yesterday and it was one of those games I just didn't want to end. I loved everything about it. I've been playing since release and "taking my time" with it! Now that I've finished I have a persona shaped hole in my world...well at least until I start a new game+ that is!

@KirbyTheVampire I agree with you that the formula for ND games is pretty much a given at this point. And if I'm being honest much of what Sony's first party studios are putting out seem to be third person action games here lately, so a gameplay trailer, for me, would highlight everything that make this different from those other games, even though I already kind of know what to expect having played the first game.

Playing through Uncharted 3 and possibly defeating the 7th palace boss in Persona 5. I'm actually liking UC3 better than the first two. All of the mechanics feel so much more refined and everything is just buttery smooth from the controls to the way the cutscenes blend into the gameplay. As for P5, I'm really just looking for reasons not to finish the game because I don't want it to end.

Tough choice between Okami and A Hat in Time. I absolutely love Okami but never got around to finishing it because my first copy was burned when my PS3 caught on fire (long story) and I never could get used to the motion controls for attacking on Wii. Will definitely be picking it up on PS4.

Re: Guide: All PS4 HDR Compatible Games

@BAMozzy thanks for taking the time to give me such an informed answer! 40" is definitely the max for the foreseeable future unfortunately. I hadn't checked out the MU7000 yet so I'll look into that! Honestly I'm upgrading from a very cheap 32" so anything is going to be an improvement, just wanted to make sure I was making a worthwhile investment.

Re: Guide: All PS4 HDR Compatible Games

TricksterTyler

@BAMozzy question for ya since you seem to know your stuff on TV's. I only have space for a 40" TV in my setup and my options for 4K are pretty limited because of that. A model that I've found that also supports HDR is the Samsung UN40MU6300. It's an older set but in my price range. As far as you can tell is this a good purchase or should I continue to look around?

Re: Guide: July 2017 PS4 Release Dates

TricksterTyler

@Ralizah same developer but very different gameplay mechanics. Bastion is more action oriented whereas Transistor is more about strategy and planning out your attacks and Pyre looks to be a turn based rpg similar to old Final Fantasy games.

EDIT: actually I was wrong, Pyre's combat looks different than a typical turn based rpg. Actually not quite sure what's going on based on the trailer I watched...

Re: Poll: What Was Your Favourite PS4 Game at E3 2017?

TricksterTyler

Days Gone - Looks like a mix of Horizon and Last of Us and I'm personally loving it

Monster Hunter World - It's the return of Monster Hunter to console. Tri got me into MH and I can't wait to play more on my TV.

Shadow of the Colossus - Never got around to playing this. With BluePoint in charge this will be a day one purchase for me.
