If it were on PS4 I probably would have bought it. Now I won't.

The game was still in a fantastic state on day one. It keeps getting improved, sure, but let's not pretend this was Superman 64 at launch and is now playable.

I want to know how it looks visually on PS4. Are the graphics a massive downgrade like the Switch version?

I'm digging the retro GameBoy Advance 3D look they're going for ;-p

It's a very pretty game. I just don't think it's an exceptionally fun game. I feel like the incredible production value hides the fact that it's just a very okay action game.

Horizon Forbidden West. I will continue playing it until the inevitable DLC releases. And then I'll play it some more.

Maximo Ghosts to Glory
But I want to be able to buy it.

I hope PS2 games can be purchased without a subscription. I'd be happy to buy Maximo if it were available.
But no way am I subscribing to PS+ ever again.

Awesome! Ubisoft is possibly the only big game company I care about besides Nintendo and Sony.
Mario Rabbids
Trials
Trackmania
Prince of Persia
Rayman

I played 34 hours and loved it. Still not even halfway done with the game.
No major issues but I'm taking a break for a month or two so I can play the rest of the game with a bunch of patching done to make it an even better experience.

There are so many quests! I can't believe how many hours I have put in (30 or so) and still feel like I've hardly scratched the surface.

You MUST pick a side and fight to the death.
NO WIMPY WAFFLING.

If this were the only game I played all year, I'd be fine with that.

My whole life I thought UNO was a dumb game that is almost purely luck of the draw. However, my kids recently taught me a customized version called Spicy UNO and it's a blast. WAY more engaging!

I'm excited to add some of your custom rules into the mix!

If this can run both Horizon games and all From Software games well, I'll consider buying it.

I want this but I want a lego Thunder Jaw even more.

I'm so happy to hear base PS4 has a solid 30fps at 1080p.

I loved seeing the game icon pop up when I hopped on my PS4 last night. It looks so beautiful.

Good because that's all I've got.

I have a PS4, not a PS5, so of course I bought the PS4 version 😋

This is such a phenomenal story. One of the very few video game stories I've ever been invested in.

That said, this recap was super helpful considering the story is so complicated that it's hard to hold on to all the details, even after 2 playthroughs.

Top 2 were 51 hours of Dark Souls 3 and 24 hours of It Takes Two.

I did a lot less gaming this year. And the vast majority was on Switch. Hollow Knight, Dark Souls, and Metroid Dread.

If you showed me this poster without the word "Uncharted," I would never ever guess it's supposed to be based on that game universe.

I keep wondering who this movie is made for. Certainly not the millions of Uncharted fans. At least pick actors who KIND OF LOOK like the characters.

To me this is worse than how Sonic looked in the original movie trailer.

As someone who has no desire to plop down more than half a grand on a PS5, I'm super happy to see my PS4 continue to see support.

Did anyone else feel underwhelmed by GoW 2018? I started off really enjoying it but it grew really repetitive. Felt like the only thing truly appealing was the visuals and characters. The combat and puzzle solving was too simplistic to hold my attention.

After about 12 hours, I put it down and never returned.

Maybe it's because I waited for a patch or two, but I really don't understand the complaints of this review. I'm having a blast with it.
I am playing on easy with survival factors turned to minimum, so maybe that's making it more enjoyable.

I would have no problem deleting most of my games off my PS4 to make room for this. 200GB? No worries. I am hyped beyond belief for a Horizon sequel.
I pre-ordered the game digitally, so no disc swapping for me.

It Takes Two should win hands down. No other Playstation game really impressed me this year that I can think of.

Well, Astalon Tears of the Earth was phenomenal but apparently I'm one of nine people who actually played it 😥

Once again this proves the opinion of hardcore gamers who frequent websites like this one do not always represent the opinions and tastes of the average gamer. What is acclaimed by critics and the die-hard gamers occasionally matches the general public, but often it is not the case.

I helped Kickstart this game maybe 5 years ago. It's been a long wait but I'm glad to finally play it. Only other game I ever Kickstarted was Hollow Knight.

Cool idea to delve into the story via a podcast!
Some people didn't like the story in Horizon but I thought it was brilliant and one of my favorite game stories ever. There wasn't a heavy focus on developing characters, so I think that's why some people didn't connect with it. But the plot and lore was really fascinating to me. And the more you explore the more was revealed.

Interested in Miles Morales and Psychonauts 2.

Waiting for a good Miles Morales sale.

Pre-ordered on PS4.

This looks like a Dark Souls rip off
😉

I just hope that Praey for the Gods is finally released.

My kids and I have been playing through this since launch day and we're still not finished. We all love it A LOT but most of the kids are inexperienced gamers so everything takes 5 times as long as it would if I were playing on my own 😄

This is one of those rare games that's actually really fun to watch, even if you're not playing. So even though there are 9 of us, it's still fine that only 2 can play at a time.

"Since Game Trials are limited to PS5 titles, the PS4 version of Sackboy: A Big Adventure doesn't qualify for this free test."

I'm really disappointed that PS4 isn't included as I've been hoping for a demo of Sackboy.

God of War is a really beautiful game, but I found it much too repetitive. I got about 8 hours in and never returned because I was bored of the formula.

I'm trying to decide whether to get:
Kena Bridge of Spirits
Psychonauts 2
Miles Morales
F.I.S.T.: Forged in Shadow Torch
Hot Wheels Unleashed

Recommendations welcome!

@Quintumply I just want to know the frame rate and resolution of the PS4 version. Is it 1080p? Is it 30fps like Switch? Or is it 60fps?
I'm trying to decide whether to pick this up on Switch or PS4. I prefer the portability of Switch but if the graphics are more crisp and the frame rate smoother on PS4, then I'll get it there.

@Alan_cartridge_ @BoldAndBrash
I'm happy for all those who enjoyed Drive Club. I'm just not one of them. 🤷‍♂️

Great graphics do not equal great gameplay. Drive Club was one of my most regretted purchases on PS4.

A guide before a review? Seems a bit topsy turvy, don't ya think?

I prefer digital since it can't get scratched, doesn't take up space, and I can swap out games instantly.
I'll be happy to pay $10 less for the convenient option, thanks.

I'll be getting the vanilla PS4 version digitally, just as soon as I know it runs as well as Zero Dawn on base PS4.
I am fine with 30fps, but if it's a massively downgraded mess I want to know before buying.

F.I.S.T. Forged in Shadow Torch
Tails of Iron
Kena Bridge of Spirits
Hot Wheels Unleashed
Praey for the Gods??

On a separate note... I wish they had come up with a title that rolls off the lips more. Zero Dawn feels so good to say. But Forbidden West? No thanks. I'll be calling it Horizon 2.

I would pre-order on PS4 if they would confirm it will run 30fps.

Destiny is still a thing??
