PS4 Megathread 2.0

um7y1h83ge06nx

Just bought BF4 and the upgrade there.

Regarding the file size of the upgrade:

"it will download 6 gigs first so u can play the campaign only. the rest gets downloaded and installed separate. almost 2 hours for me and the campaign is ready but only 31% of the full game."

I am really looking forward to diablo 3 on PS4, even if I had played the living jaysus out of it on pc.
I even had ps3 version and it is shocking how well it works on console.

TLOU and diablo 3 will be the first games I buy since I got second son.

MarkY91

just ordered sniper elite 3 and the last of us from VGP for 78 euro inc postage...then i go to gamestops website to laugh at their prices

Revoker88

Im the opposite,tried a bit of couch co-op with Towerfall and after about an hour id had enough. Its fun but for only about an hour in my case.

Strider im really liking though. The pacing is a throwback and im really enjoying it,really like the soundtrack as well.

Besides Trine 2 and Dont Starve most of the PS+ games have not been to my liking,just personal taste really though. I also have two games i bought,BF4 and Trials Fusion. Trials is good fun if your into it,ive basically givin up on BF4 though. Which is nothing to do with the PS4 in fairness. F**k you Dice/EA:)

I think the problem with people being underwhelmed by the system is there is just not enough quality games out on the system to please the majority.

The Indies are great and in the long run will be great for PS4 but atm were getting titles that have already been released on PC and are not that exciting IMO,good games but just lacking the wow factor.

Hopefully its starting to change though,pre ordered The Last of Us and going to do the same for Diablo 3. Waiting to get Wolfenstein second hand soon as well. Finally feel like there are games starting to emerge that will make me play the PS a lot more in the near future.

Early adoption was rough this gen imo,but starting to pick up now:)

Towerfall is fine, I guess. Don't like strider at all. But horses for courses etc.

I'd actually say it's the best month so far, although I did own both games already

. Towerfall is gameplay perfection, especially with a friend beside you. Definitive proof of how great design is always more important than mere graphical oomph (although the art design is great and communicates in a crystal clear way all the information you need). Strider is a lot of fun too - a consistently fast paced and engaging update to a classic franchise, and one of the more satisfying recent Metroidvania style games too (barring the fact the map is a piece of crap, especially during the late game!)

Admittedly its not the best PSN+ month

I downloaded the two "free" games, Tower Asension and some other one. They are like something from a PS1 imo.
Very disapointed.
Hardly new era gaming....
Also i have a shi1 internet connection (2mb) and it took me about 3 days to download them - lol

I think so but might ask some one else on this as well to be safe as long as you renew it again you can play the games again that you got from PSN+

But i see no reason not to keep paying it as after a month it basically pays for its self. The amount of games i have getting from it over the last 2 and 1/2 years has made it the best bargain ever as i have applied games that i would have never bought in the 1st place

can you redownload the games say if your membership runs out and you renew it say that day?

All your games stay on account, if your membership expires they just become locked, when you renew it they get unlocked, so no need to redownload them.

PSN+ is what you need to play a PS4 online just like Xbox live you need a membership to play it online for all games. But you don't need it for the PS Vita or PS3.

You get 6 games a month for free 2 for each console and sony tells you a week before what games you get for free. But you only get to keep theses games for as long as you pay your PSN membership. EG you miss it by a day and won't to play one of the games the PS4 will not let you.

You don't need it to download games as anyone can buy games and download them from PSN.

There should be a full guide to PSN+ on the 1st page on this thread as it will help people and stop from asking the same thing nearly 4 to 5 times a week

As to the manual - yup - I miss those but its all about cost reduction. I still miss them though.

Connected to the internet - start slowly.
1. PSN - the Store - if you don't have PS+ you are missing out on some cracking great games that you can download straight to your console - also without the disc they run quieter...
2. Online gaming - up to you to play or not, me not that bothered except for Dark Souls (all 3) or similar.
3. Sharing - maybe one for the facebook crowd, but not that keen on sharing my 6th attempt to shoot some nazi robot/android in the head

Use this forum and other sites to learn more - just take it slowly but if you do nothing else this week get PS+ and just have a look to see what's out there...

Nah don't be checking out walkthroughs. The only time a walkthrough should be checked is if you were about to smash your controller against the wall.

I would read a walkthrough before I play Dark Souls or if I am getting bored I would check to see how far into the game I am. I should have been a bit more precise I think they are great as an aid not to ruin a game completely!

Roadmaps tend to be good in some games, especially RPGs.

Im 35 mate, getting back into gaming was the best thing ever for me. I spent my 20's being serious as fudge but now with other worldly pressures gaming is the perfect vent! I tried alcohol but it did not suit me at all at all!

Maybe a ps3 is a better start for u as it has a massive back catalogue of great games!

Half the fun is learning about games from boards and websites and checking out walkthroughs etc!

I think a little bit of it is to do with my age and being out of the console game so long.

I don't like the fact they don't provide manuals anymore.

I am unsure about the whole connecting to the internet thingy.

It all seems a bit more complicated.

I understand now how my Mum feels when trying to figure out her smartphone.

I'd like someone younger to maybe call over to my gaff and show me the ropes/show me how to utilise my PS4 better. Then again maybe tis not me and maybe the PS4 ain't that great.

My PS4 saw very little use since launch, but in the last month with 3-4 games out that I wanted to play and about another 10 I will be getting in the coming months it has been getting more and more use.

10 year old PS3?

Anyway, the PS3 was awful when it first came out, um 7 years ago but has improved drastically since on most fronts.

The PS4's not out a year, yet. Fifa 14 is considerably better on next gen. Undoubtedly different, anyway.

Am i missing something here with PS4. Spent 700e last week to upgrade from PS3. Whilst it is good it is not all it is hyped up to be imo. PS3 games are comparable in most cases and my phat PS3 is 10 years old. Games purchased with PS4 were:

Tomb Raider
Marvel Lego Superheros
BF4
Sniper Elite 3
Need for Speed Rivals
Watchdogs

Downloaded demo of Fifa 14 and thought it was no improvement from PS3.

Tomb raider graphics are good i thought.

Am i being to harsh or too high expectations?

I'd happily accept a refund.

I'm more shocked that you spent all that money on something you weren't sure of in the first.

The initial games will not be using the ps4 at optimum levels next year hopefully you'll be signing it's praises.

I myself hadn't played the PS since about 2002 - the PS2.

I decided to buy the PS4 at XMAS - played it about 10 times. Not sure if it is me or the console?! I am not sure what I was expecting but I don't really see much difference between the old PS2 and the PS4 - the graphics are a bit flashier but that is about it. I bought Tomb Raider as I loved it on PS2 and I really can't see a whole lot of difference. Lara is hotter I suppose.

Maybe I am just too old for the PS.

I agree there's no real incentive to pick it up just yet and I haven't either :pac: I'll probably pick one up around xmas or maybe early next year in sales or something. Uncharted and Far Cry will make sure I do get a PS4 though.

However Fifa is a massive upgrade I thought having played it on a friend's ps4 a few times, maybe it was just me but the subtle touches and style of players kicking the ball etc were much more fluid.

Really? They play like two completely different games. Played it on PS3 in a mates house and didn't know what was going on, game/players felt so slow and unresponsive compared to PS4.

Surely you can see just how good looking BF4 is ?. There is know way the PS3 can play like that.

...as for the rest, I havn't played them.
