i keep thinking i'll play mgsV once they release a greatest hits package for the ps4 and i can play all the others i've never played before

I skipped a couple and own the fourth game, but people are highly skeptical they'll ever port that one. I guess coding directly for the graphics on the PS3 made it incredibly taxing to port.
I think the collection for PS3 plus MGS4 for PS3 followed by MGS V on PS4 is the closest you'll get for a long time, especially with Konami kind of taking the franchise into spinoff mode in Kojima's absence

Chronologically MGS V takes place after 3 but before 1 and 2
― mh 😏, Thursday, 17 November 2016 22:42 (seven years ago) link
yo i didn't know we were talking about mgsv!!!
i just beat the last of the side ops the other night :) :) :) i had like a dozen of those "eliminate the tank unit" and "eliminate the armored convoy" or whtever missions left, which are just like not very fun, but i did it. still gonna dip in this game a bit to finish off some of the other little collectathons, which i am not usually into but i just wanna... idk BE in that game you know? once i'm done with it, mgs as i know it is over :(

it might be time for me to jump back in. i did my standard move earlier this year where i bought it, got obsessed for 15 hours, then promptly abandoned it, never to return. i don't know why. i didn't even see an embarrassing sex scene (that's how early on i am in the game). i feel like i should get back in just to one of those, if nothing else, it seems like a rite of passage for the modern game player
this was me with all games for many moons before the witcher 3, and at least two after (fallout 4 and the last of us). witcher 3 really grabbed me - it's easy to just play without any linear goal, but also has a story.
have only started with fallout 4 but still - graphically and generally just feels sort of dull and linear. i assume that changes if i play beyond the first hour, but it felt so basic and samey, unlike witcher 3 which managed to make even boring transit between two points beautiful or silent or full of action, with none of those three superior by default.

i didn't even finish fallout4 :(
― Mordy, Thursday, 17 November 2016 23:01 (seven years ago) link
i accidentally broke it i got this perk or something that iirc lets me snipe heads from like any distance at 95% accuracy and it wasn't fun to play after that
― Mordy, Thursday, 17 November 2016 23:02 (seven years ago) link
i found it boring graphically, the horrible weapons interfaces etc etc.
witcher 3 is way ahead of all this shit in terms of sheer joy. like one of my big wow moments early on it was just rowing a boat across a lake and it started to rain, and the motion of the boat on the water plus amazing sound design for the rain - not really seeing that depth in anything else i've played since getting a ps4.

definitely going to actually finish this now after this thread - i've killed enough bandits, the main quest awaits.

I gave up on Witcher 3 like a year ago after about 20 hours investment. Just wasn't clicking for me. Started a new game last night tho. Y'all got me.

― Karl Malone, Friday, 18 November 2016 16:06 (seven years ago) link
The tack I've ultimately settled on for any big game is to do as many of the side jobs as possible before progressing with the main story. Because the side stuff just feels like a mop-up job after I've completed some epic task.

yeah thats what i've realized -- i would normally skip them at this point because the loot wont be any good but otoh they're usually so well done that it might be fun to play through them with low stakes

I was going to play my batman game last night but again... why the hell does the riddler want me to complete weird racetracks in the batmobile
I'd shelve that quest indefinitely but as you unlock pieces you get to play as Catwoman, which is fun

Yeah, Knack was really bad for a launch game.
Got it for my six year old who loves it but compared to something like Ratchet and Clank or the Lego games, it's so boring and repetitive.

This newest slate of announcements is the first real inducement I've had to consider maybe possibly investing in a PS4 sometime within the next five years or so.

I just recently bought a protection plan for my PS3, ensuring I'll be firmly last gen for most of the remainder of this decade.

I have a copy of that that I still have to play - which is ridiculous because SMG is one of the best games I've ever played and I've mostly heard that the sequel is better.
And yet I'm worse on the other systems - vis my question here is: if I get a PS4 to catch up on a generation of games, will it be able to play the generation of PS3 games that I didn't play either?
