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

oh is that what that's about?

mainly it's about how fat nerds are the best iirc

Your dream speaks powerfully to me, ulysses.

I might even finish FFX 100% if they can get the human lifespan up by a decade or so by then.

only reason i haven't bought a PS4 yet is you still can't play Demon's Souls on it

i'm gonna die never having played nino no kuni aren't i

it's an absolute joy but by no stretch of the imagination even remotely essential

What's more essential than JOY? (I haven't finished it yet either)

i mean like i can't actually remember if i beat it, i had some nice memories but they're all vague and cloudy.

i remember it being super grindy but that may be how i played it. i know i didn't last more than a few days.

that stories game on ps plus is pretty good as is the nier automata demo

i got these on sale, can anyone vouch for these:
verdun (looked like a shittier bf1 yet somehow way way better than bf1?!?)
slain back from hell (lol)
inside

inside is awesome, play it

ten bucks was enough for me to buy; will report back.

tempted to bite on that too from the praise i've heard here

im sure i'll like inside, limbo was rly good

just picked up Ratchet and Clank for $10 on gamestop

Anyone try Let It Die?

Doesn't look like it's quite for me, but it also looks insane.

ok i picked up Inside too tho it might have to wait for me to finish witcher 3 and mankind divided b4 i get to it

Inside only takes a couple hours start to finish.

omg, Inside was spectacular. probably the most engaged i've been with a game since i put down dark souls 3
speaking of which, i'm replaying that and downloaded the new add on.

seriously though, do get Inside
it's more insightful about AI and frankenstein morality than the whole first season of Westworld... and there's no spoken words!

youve got to be fucking kidding me

wait all day for FFXV update to download
turn on ps4, system update installation
click on FFXV, software update installation
WTF clicking on new game doesnt work??
"Install time remaining: 18 min."

it's not much more fun when it's installed honestly..

ouch so it's not good?

not for me

FINE GUYS I'LL BUY INSIDE (although for Steam)

it's stupid good AND best if you know absolutely nothing about it.

well this game is just fucking stunning. reminds me of Another World in the best possible way.

I had another world on my mind as well

last section is mind-blowing

did you guys get, um, all the orbs?

inside was great, rly bizarre

did you all play limbo? just asking because when it came out i don't remember the reaction being so overwhelmingly positive. i thought inside was really good but not a quantum leap past what limbo did.

idk, i remember a whole lot of acclaim around Limbo at the time? and in irl it was the only game that my friends who don't play video games got super into (either watching or playing).

I did not play Limbo because I figured it was a mountain of pompous Braid-y twaddle when it came out; I am, however, about to play the everliving shit out of it once I finish Inside (and play at least a bit of BF1 before the year is over) because Inside is straight-up incredible.

yeah imo iirc Limbo is nothing like Braid - not twee at all

It's basically the opposite of Braid, aside from being 2-d and having puzzles.

Limbo has some trickier puzzles compared to Inside, but Inside found me thinking a lot more about the world and 'story'.

ugh fine i'll play this game and unbookmark this thread guyz

i don't know what inside is going on about storywise but yeah way more engaging to me than limbo which got a bit too heavy on the puzzle shit towards the end

verdun... sucks. i was hoping for a ww1 version of chivalry medieval warfare but its just kinda lame

slain is pretty good. strong castlevania sotn vibes but throwing a shitload of enemies at u at once like dark souls 2

i like inside so far it reminds me of like stranger things + another world (out of this world -btw what's the deal w/ everyone using this other title i only knew it as this alternate one until ilx) + maybe a little bit oddworld

i finished it last night. it's very good. it also reminds me of a flash (?) game whose name i can't remember unfortunately but maybe one of u do - it's platform stages w/ a lot of violent deaths and you needed to have precision timing.

I burned through Inside pretty quickly. I loved it. Favorite parts were the mind control segments and the end game, it was great how the feel and controls changed. Least favorite parts were escaping the "mermaids," too stressful.

the mind control segments were the ones that reminded me of oddworld

I think I am physically incapable of playing NBA 2Kwhatever games. I don't understand the controls at all.

they are have been horrible games for years now imo

I don't think I've played a basketball game since NBA Jam. That was the best one, right?

(the original, I forgot they did some sort of 2000s release)

original nba2k on dreamcast FTW
