A PS4 Thread: Because You Had to Play "Knack"

oddworld and valiant hearts look interesting. i didn't see papo & yo on the ps3 store but maybe it got added later?

gave up on valiant hearts. oddworld is fun.

Olli Olli 2 is a must ... Tony Hawk meets Trials? Yes please.

Counterspy is more my style than Oddworld so far. Both are well worth the price of free.

Valiant Hearts is pretty strange, but oddly addictive? Very easy, but some fun puzzle wrinkles. The ugly art style had me wondering if Behemoth were involved but I guess not.

it was a little too easy and couldn't stand the art style

http://www.avclub.com/article/upcoming-ps4-update-finally-let-players-reconfigur-216512

Version 2.50 of the PS4 system software will finally let players configure controls however they want, for any game. In other words, if you want your circle button to mean “jump” and your L1 button to mean “slide,” you can make that happen, even if the game’s creator didn’t want you to.

IN YOUR FACE, GAME CREATORS

you can make that happen, even if the game’s creator didn’t want you to even if the game's creator didn't have the budget to create a wholly customizable control scheme architecture and instead chose to spend that money on making a video game.

...but seriously: this seems like a bit of a pain in the ass, since it sounds like you're telling the ENTIRE PS4 that "x now means triangle and r1 now means l1", not like "oh here's my helldivers profile where i move reload to square instead of stupid r1"

Weeaboos and Tim Rogers will use this feature to swap Circle and X back to their rightful roles presumably

i will use this to invert the Y-axis on games that inexplicably don't offer that option (looking your way telltale games)

Might not be an option if it was just designed for accessibility.

Finally hooked this thing up. What is this REAL NAME crap

goddammit bloodborne, so mad that you made me get this stupid thing

things i will be trying shortly: transistor, Rogue Legacy, Outlast, Road Not Taken, Towerfall Ascension, Secret Ponchos, Injustice, Infamous First Light

Crazy deal right now on Amazon - $400 gets you a PS4, Bloodborne, a digital copy of The Last of Us Remastered, and a $20 GC

That said I bet this is a precursor to a new model coming out soon

sons of bitches put that up LITERALLY the day after i bought mine.

MLB The Show 15 looks amazing on the PS4

oh shit that came out yesterday!!! i completely forgot. know what i'll be doing tonight.

have they patched the loading times in Bloodborne yet

isn't going to get fixed for a while but tbh it is really not that bad

play knack in meantime

this looks great, i should be playing it shouldn't i

it's pretty good! i was terrible at it but i enjoyed it despite having no real idea of what was going on.

since i played it last they've added an editor you can use to create your own ships so maybe i should go back and create the cock-and-balls-shaped death machine i've always dreamed of

A PS4 Thread: Because You Really Do Have to Play Super Mega Baseball

I have only had it for a day or so and I can already tell that I will probably play it forever; too bad there's not a Vita version so that I can play on the road though

FINALLY someone else got it

May:

Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition
Ether One
The Unfinished Swan
Race the Sun
Hohokum

...I'm excited to take Hohokum for a spin

I got a ps4 and haven't touched it in months ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

srsly tho wha happen

More than anything I've been using it to watch baseball.

The console version of the mlb.tv app is so good.

get bloodborne it is the best

I can't play Bloodborne until I've played Demon's Souls. And then Dark Souls I and II.

see you in 3yrs then!

Important petition: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/petition/From_Software_Bring_Demons_Souls_to_the_PS4/?pv=8

i would buy a ps4 demon's souls in a heartbeat

I haven't played my PS4 very much but Resogun rules super hard

My love/hate griping for Mortal Kombat X currently in full effect

Has everyone bought Super Mega Baseball yet or am I just going to have to throw you all in a sack and heave it into the river

It is GOTY rn and nothing else is particularly close imo

It is the precise midpoint between the MLB The Show series and those old Baseball Stars 2 Neo Geo cabinets and I just love the fudge out of it

available for PS3! :D

cobo it's you who's responsible for my sporadic 9 Innings addiction iirc so i have a good feeling about this one

I have that game and it is pretty fun! It does kinda feel like MLB-the-Show-lite but thats ok sometimes

the last thing in the world i need right now is a fiendishly complex baseball game

pS+ in june is basically MGSV: Prologue to Batshit and a lotta garbage

also am i being overly sensitive or is guacamelee sorta racist? because after playing it for a half hour it seems like mexicans are mostly agrarian wrestlers, chicken farmers and less interesting than the average metroidvainia inhabitants

nah i got that vibe too

psyched about MGS Ground Zeroes, i was going to buy that anyway.

a couple other coworkers have PS4s so we have been trying to play each other in various games. first we tried GTA5 and I found it too infuriating to get far enough to allow me access to the multiplayer. then fc4 went on sale over memorial day weekend so we all bought a copy; you still have to beat the whole first chapter before it lets you do co-op and apparently I am not there yet. for some reason they have no interest in getting something arcade-y and co-op-y like Towerfall Ascension or Nidhogg either.

also mic question - I'm using the headset, but I can still barely hear party chat when I'm in a game. is there anything I can do to fix this? I've already tried boosting the priority of party audio and fiddling around with sliders in the settings but I can never hear shit.

I still love Super Mega Baseball, if you love sports games from the 90s you almost certainly will too. they said they're working on a Vita version which I am praying will have the same cross save capabilities as The Show; I love those games but one of my favorite things about Super Mega is how briskly it moves.

everybody's tennis is one of my fave games of all time so super mega beisbol is gonna do it for me i suspect

ok i got it

it's good

i've gotten pretty good at it except for my fielding. the fielders move like tanks and it's hard to predict when they'll catch up to where you want them to be.

really nice pitching/catching steez, it feels quite real. nice satisfying thumps in the mitt and great catcher animations for blocking the ball and framing pitches.

colors very garish and weird on PS3, not sure why.

i've upped my Ego to 35, which feels about right

seems weird that there is no pick-off move??

i'm still hopeless at defence but i'm kinda killing the computer all the time

not changing my lineup ever

maybe i'm ready for The Show??

all i want is a decent driving game

Last Guardian. Supposedly.
