    Tomb Raider & Thief are both have price ($30/€22) on the US PSN store until Thursday. I have bought Tomb Raider and it is downloading now.

    Anyone played the PS4 Tomb Raider? Can't go wrong for €22 I suppose.

    I got it, great so far bout 2 tombs in, missed out on it last year, watched my missus playing it on Xbox, PS4 version looks like a different game it's that good....

    Tomb Raider is great on the PS4, if you have not played it on the PS3 you are in for a treat, aesthetically it is beautiful and suffers very few framerate issues compared to its Xbox One counterpart, it has an average framerate of 53.36fps compared to the Xbox having 29.98fps

    You'll get €35 cash for each of them in Cex if you wanted to get rid of them.

    Aesthetically is considered 'too fancy' a word? Oh dear :(

    wow, I said I'd sort out a PSN US account, but I REALLY need to do it now.

    I have Tomb Raider on PS3 though, downloaded last months PSN offer, justify spending €22 on a graphical update?

    PS4 version has all the DLC too as far as I know.
    Personally I think its worth the €22 for the 1080p clarity and 60fps.

    If you've played Tombraider already it's not particularly worth a second purchase for the sake of a polished coat and zippier frame rate. For those that haven't played it why not??

    I picked it up even though I had it from ps plus although not played it yet. Firstly to try out the process of buying a game from us psn with us amazon psn codes.

    It's such an "aesthetically" pleasing game and after seeing the lighting and visuals I wish Dark Souls 2 was out on PS4 to the same standard!

    Also thanks to everyone such as Xenji and Co for the advice about how to buy from more reasonably priced sources. Like most here after years of getting the shaft as a gamer it's nice to feel liberated!

    More news about the soap opera that is DriveClub, Col Rodgers does have a replacement as game director, but we do not know who yet and the game is making great progress.
    The development of DriveClub continues to go "from strength to strength", SCEE has told VideoGamer.com while responding to yesterday's reports highlighting the recent changes at Evolution Studios.

    In a statement provided to us this afternoon, SCEE said that it "would like to make it very clear that the development of DRIVECLUB on PS4 is going from strength to strength. The announced studio changes across WWS yesterday have not affected the development of DRIVECLUB or the DRIVECLUB team, which has always had great direction and continues to do so.

    "We have full confidence that the game will deliver on its PS4 promise to be the first truly socially connected racing title and we are very pleased and excited by the calibre of work from Evolution Studios.

    "The progress being made on the game is spectacular," Sony continued, "so we're looking forward to sharing an update on development, release date and videos of the game in action in the weeks to come. We thank you for your patience and assure you, it will be worth the wait."

    SCEE also confirmed that "DRIVECLUB does have a Game Director at the helm who we will be revealing very soon."

    Tomb Raider is class. I never played the PS3 version so I can't compare.

    €22 is a bargain though if you have a US account.

    I stood on the cliff near the beginning looking out at the view for a few minutes. The graphics are great.

    Hmmm. If there's any graphic/feature updates I might buy it again, and hold off buying the DLC until then.

    Polygon Article
    The Last of Us is coming to PlayStation 4 this summer, PlayStation's Eurasian Software Market Manager Sercan Sulun confirmed in an interview on Turkish CNN, translated by IGN.

    "There is no information about a new The Last of Us game but I can share this knowledge; as of this summer, The Last of Us will be on the PS4. Both on PSN and physically," Sulun said.

    "The PS4 version will also include the DLC so you will be able to play Left Behind as well."

    The Left Behind DLC (and I assume the MP stuff too) is said to be included.

    13 euro a month? Never got into that skyrim, but having to pay 13 quid a month is a joke.

    It's the norm for MMO titles, apart from the poor flurry of Free to play games that came out recently.

    Most big " we want to kill wow" mmo's , charge a monthly fee.

    it should be native 1080p and maybe 60fps....i am sure the ps3 version had the quality settings turned way down, the ps4 should allow the game to shine graphically.

    i doubt it will be a staright ps3 port....there would be no seeling point....you can bet gran turismo will be thw same.

    Thats why I only play Guild Wars 2, which is arguably biggest western MMORPG behind WoW, it does not have a subscription fee and from playing the ESO beta, far more fun as well.
