My eyes glaze over and my brain goes numb for 90% of spoken dialogue, even if I try. Even worse for text. My subconscious knows it's mostly poorly written filler.

@Americansamurai1 this is a game a demo may push me to get it but as is, I'll be waiting for at least 50% sale.

@Saucymonk same here. Started kinda cool, but got old and un-fun really quick. More frustration than excitement.

When I first got a PS3 and a trophy notification showed up, I'm like "what the hell is this nonsense? a pretend trophy for playing a part of a game? How silly!" I thought it was a fad that would disappear, like those Wii and Xbox 360 avatars.

I see Shantae SS and Pathless are on sale. Usually I wait til at least 50% off but I don't think I can resist this one! So that may be my weekend.

I didn't realize "no particular order" actually means "very specific order". Thanks, comment section!

It's quite the strategy. They had to pay an enormous amount of money for some (potentially) good exclusives, for them to put it on a subscription service that probably won't turn a profit for quite a while. I mean, it's got me interested in potentially getting an Xbox console for the first time since the first one, so that's something. I'd wait til after ES6 is released though.

@Matej yup. online.

I've been wanting something like Splatoon to play, where you can easily jump in and play a couple rounds and isn't strictly a shooter. But this feels like a beta. Kinda empty and soulless in spite of the color. Also I only get bots so far.

I've been playing this for Halloween vibes this month. It's been good fun. The controls are simple enough that you can jump in for a little bit each day after work. I recommend it.

A bit of Yakuza 0, and a SMW rom hack. Peach's Adventure or something.

Bringing back demos would be better.

I'll probably have some fun goofing around with MKX. It's not the sort of game I buy, but for some tomfoolery when a friend is over is ok. A cartoony golf game I would have liked, but not PGA. So overall a "disposable" month. If you get ps+ when it's on a good sale, mostly crappy months is fine.

I'd like to see ps+ and psnow just combined. They're mostly ok individually. But 2 different subscriptions on one platform from one company is just kinda silly. Except I guess now can play on pc, barely.

@sanderson72 what? Why would anyone pay more for a PS4 pro when PS5 is backward compatible?

I noticed a lot of these are PS3 games, and I've gotta say nothing I've played on the ps4 so far has been as good of an experience as Skyrim and Mass Effect. Although HZD was fantastic I'd consider it more action adventure with rpg elements, and Dragons Crown was almost entirely a beat em up.

@marty8370 gimme 5 bucks. Cmon don't be cheap.

Still working my way through CrossCode, mixed with a little Rocket League and an some retro gaming on my Pi.

So the PS4 LBP3 servers are back up? Sweet! I just started playing it a little while ago thanks to psnow before this whole kerfuffle happened.

@Blackjay It's definitely not for most. And kind of a "you had to be there" sort of thing.

We may never see a pikmin 4 so this will do, if executed well. I hope it has zany humor in it.

Looks perfect for me. When it hits a good sale, I'm in!

Dang. I have Overcooked on ps4 and it's more stressful than fun. The other 2 are the standard dreary ps+ filler titles. Bleh.

So many good indies on sale! Iconoclasts is super cheap. One of my faves.

Some New Super Lucky's Tale for some platform action and a few rounds of Rocket League.

Never could beat 2x but loved it anyway. Here's to hoping the next game has an easy mode!

@Robocod yeah, some of those indies only go on sale during a certain time period and then never again. Don't know why. It would certainly push me to buy more of them.

Still doing side quests in Crosscode, then maybe I'll have a chance at beating that whale!

Been looking forward to this since before i had a ps4!

I mean, mobile would be a good platform with an attached controller. Most smartphones have impressive specs to an old timer like me. There's just rarely any worthwhile games on it.

I love Dreams, glad to hear it's being supported.

Was impressed with the Paper Beast demo. This is great!

I have 2 ps3s with mechanical issues and I'm done sticking money into those obsolete things. Buying an emulator that works well would be more sensible. Still would like to play through Puppeteer.

Ooh! Finnaly, this is my only day 1 full price dlc purchase! Love this game.

I mean, it's ANOTHER shooter. Unless it's absolutely phenomenal, I'd be reluctant to download it even with gamepass.

Hmm, i own most of these, still happy with the list, though! I thought the demo of paper beast was really intriguing, looking forward to the whole experience

@LiamCroft my son did! Honestly it played just fine to me. shrug

I like a good short and sweet game. I'll be getting it on sale at some point.

Wow, did not expect FF7R to be a freebie for years!

@JapaneseSonic same here. These style indies almost universally crank the split second timing requirement up to 11. It's overdone.

Looking forward to this before i even had a ps4.

Interested in SoR4, but $17 is still to high for a beat em up for me, no matter how cool it is.

I love platformers! Will definitely be downloading this.

I like the look of it but roguelikes aren't my thing.

@BrainHacker it's worth firing up. New courses every now and then make it a quick bit of fun.

Yeah, after this i guess I'll just let psnow expire. It's great for someone just getting a ps4, but a lot of the best games on there have already been on sale for super cheap in the past. The big sony titles are usually $20 or less after a year anyway, and the indies are lacking.

@thefourfoldroot yeah, I agree. Even if it is cheap, it sucks the fun out of many monthly new game announcements to have this much overlap.

@Ryall I still haven't gotten past that final area. Let us know what you think of it! Tricky lasers...

Past couple days I've been playing a lot of old Genesis games I had either missed out on or never finished. Crusader of Centy, Wonder Boy, etc. Save states make these old games playable again, as I just don't have the patience to replay whole sections of games multiple times.

Shadow is really good for those that haven't played it yet. Greedfall wasn't my cup of tea. I wonder what January's Now games will be.

Got back into Bowsers Inside Story (ds) a bit this weekend, while sitting by my Netflix fire. But mostly i played CrossCode on my ps4.
