Dark Cloud 1 or 2?

I remember the second one being widely regarded as the better of the two.

 

[Strangelove77]

Just how bad were those Dead Rising remasters? I'm interested in Off The Record.

 

[Just_one]

Guess its time !

Tomb raider : definitive edition coming my way!!

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

Bought TLOU, Uncharted, DOTT, and Dishnored even though I don't have a PS4 yet. Also got Thomas was alone since it was free. Still debating whether or not I should get Tomb Raider and anything else.

 

[JetSetRadio]

I remember the second one being widely regarded as the better of the two.

Looks like that is indeed the case. It's backlog stuff but I'll take it at that price.

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

Oh, cool! The Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Bundle is on sale - let's see the price.

$29.99

I prefer the first one, it's got some charming simplicity and the second one felt overwhelming at times. Though I do agree that the second one is the more polished and generally better game. Love them both though.

 

[GraveRobberX]

you plan on playing all those games at once?

Maybe, sometimes I get itchy to go on a Drunken Platinum Bender

If this is your first time playing those games, holy fuck you're in for a treat. Jealous.

Have Platinmued Uncharted 1-3 PS3, time to revisit them again
Beat Thomas was Alone on PS3 too, so revisit

Everything else 1st time playing

Meanwhile a mother is pulling her child out of the rubble in Syria.

Ok Debbie Downer, relax yourself

 

[Mazre]

If you own a vita and like roguelikes (or ever wanted to try one) get a copy of Shiren.

 

[Jake2by4]

Never been one for the Flash sales but this one seems meh. Nothing worth buy except the UC collection imo.

 

[Weevilone]

Does the Marvel Ultimate Alliance game pack have trophies? Don't hate..

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

Oh, cool! The Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Bundle is on sale - let's see the price.

$29.99

I would have purchased it if it was $14.99 or lower for the bundle.

 

[Slime]

Is the Destiny Collection, or even just Taken King and/or Rise of Iron ever going to be on sale? ;_;

 

[Chamber]

Can't say no to the Nathan Drake collection for 8 bucks.

 

[sibarraz]

The artstyle isn't convincing me on shiren, but I like roguelikes, why is so good?

 

[Kremzeek]

ok i'll bite for that price for Transformers.

anyone play this remaster/port?

as long as it doesn't play WORSE than the 360 version, i'll be happy.

 

[Bronetta]

Maybe, sometimes I get itchy to go on a Drunken Platinum Bender

Holy fuck that trophy level dude. I thought I was a hotshot for being level 21.


.... Can we be friends?

 

[Coma Ecliptic]

Did the performance of the two Dead rising 2 games get patched? Last I heard they were iffy

How are the Dead Rising ports now? Remember reading that 2 had issues, but have they been patched by now?

I'm in the same boat. I don't think they've been patched, BUT I suspect they improve with PS Pro Boost mode on. I'm going to go do some googling.

Just how bad were those Dead Rising remasters? I'm interested in Off The Record.

Ok so I found a couple videos comparing with Boost Mode on Pro and the tearing on 1 is gone (it was minor). On DR2 the frame drops is almost non-existent now! Originally 2 would drop to 40-47'ish FPS in the outdoor sections, on the video with Boost it doesn't appear to drop at all! I would say that if you have a Pro it's a buy at this price.

I'm buying all the Dead Risings

EDIT: Just saw in our own GAF Thread all the DR's are mostly 60 FPS Locked.

 

[Shin]

Metro Redux contains 2 games, no? 2033 and Last Light?

 

[WorldofMiku]

Alright GAF, which of these PS1 Disney games are worth grabbing? (Already have Hercules in the cart as it is the only one I played and loved).

A Bugs Life
Monsters Inc
Toy Story 2
Toy Story Racer
Hercules
Lilo and Stitch
Peter Pan
Little Mermaid 2
Emperors New Groove.

A Bug's Life no doubt. Loved it when I was a kid. You know what? I'm getting that now myself. A shoutout to Lilo & Stitch as well.

 

[reKon]

Yeah...

I'm double dipping on the Uncharted Collection.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

How are Primal and the Kasai games?

 

[Thetinman]

So I don't have a PS4 but my boyfriend does could I sign in using my PSN sign-in buy Uncharted play it on his and then later sometime in the next few months when I do get a PS4 download it on to my PS4?

 

[Brandon F]

Dark Cloud 1 or 2?

Same question. I've never played either.

Dark Cloud 1 is more focused and straightforward. I actually prefer it. Just a good loop of dungeon crawling, combat progression, and building your base.

Dark Cloud 2 stuffs in a billion mini-games, activities, and other nonsense to keep you busy largely outside of the core progression. It also looks prettier. Most would argue its the superior game, but it can be overwhelming and it will constantly pull you in many directions losing the focus. But its still a fine game to try out and you will learn real quick if its a timesink you wish to stick with or not.

Thanks for looking into it! Much appreciated!

 

[Strangelove77]

Yes. You can buy it with your account, make a profile on his PS4 and play it. Once you get your own PS4 you can play it on there as well. Doesn't matter if you sign out of his or not. You can share it.

 

[Brandon F]

How are Primal and the Kasai games?

Primal was alright. The story is the reason to experience it as the gameplay is rather limp and its very cutscene heavy. Not certain if even the narrative holds up well today(barely recall much), but fans were smitten by it in the early days of PS2.

Kri and Kasai don't hold up very well. The first game especially is wrought with technical hangups that make the game design feel unpolished. It's an interesting foundation for what would eventually lead to the popular Arkham/AC combat formula, but what appeared novel and unique back then is quite archaic and fussy to deal with today.

Still if willing to spend a few bucks, they are an interesting academic curiosity.

 

[KodaRuss]

I think I might go ahead and buy the last of us remastered. I will probably replay it this summer.

 

[Killer Queen]

Bought Dishonored for PS4 but the game has a lock beside it, what's going on?

 

[GazzaGSi]

I don't think PayPal works either but if it does could you report back? In a similar situation, live in Europe but buy most of my digital stuff from US PSN.

Doesn't work mate unfortunately.

 

[GET2DAACHOPPAAAA]

How is Hot Shots Tennis?

 

[BrianRoyale]

How are Primal and the Kasai games?

I loved Primal when I played it back on PS2, but I can't imagine it being all that fun to play at this point. It felt clunky at the time, but I really enjoyed the story and characters.
Kasai games were pretty cool, but I have no idea if that game holds up today. I just loved it for being a bloody Disney looking game. All I can recall is you had to use a analog stick to target enemies for combat, and it was a button combo masher.

 

[Weiss]

So does The Swapper ever go on sale or should I bite it at 15 dollars?

 

[acevans2]

Did they decide Alienation needs no more sales?

 

[GraveRobberX]

Holy fuck that trophy level dude. I thought I was a hotshot for being level 21.


.... Can we be friends?

Sure, I have like over 200 GAFfers on my FL lol

 

[The Citizen Kane of Games]

Did they decide Alienation needs no more sales?

It was on sale in the EU. Does that help?

 

[whatever6352]

Metro Redux contains 2 games, no? 2033 and Last Light?

Yes.

 

[plasmawave]

How's the Megaman Legacy Collection on the PS4?

 

[Smasher89]

Beat Rive from the eu 10 euro getback, and seeing this many recomendations for uncharted collection made me get that (had to put in 10 usd even though i had 5 on that account already it seemed). Time to see what this series is about, I know it inspired the Tomb raider reboot, but will see how it is for my taste, seems like decently short but polished movie game experiences.

 

[Mobile Suit Gooch]

How's Bioshock? Pls respond.

 

[Alszem]

How are the Record of Agarest War games? They've been on my radar for a while, but I never bought them. At 10$ for the 3 games, it's tempting.

 

[Lylo]

8 freakin bucks for all 3 uncharted games remastered in 1080p/60fps

I just bought it. I don't even want to play it again now, have so much stuff to finish first, but i couldn't resist.

Good work Sony...

 

[UpUpDownDown]

How is Hot Shots Tennis?

I remember hearing really good things about it back in the day.

For the price of Starbucks I'll bite lol.

 

[Guevara]

I've never played a Tomb Raider, so I guess now is the time.

Yeah, but what if I don't have a Pro...

 

[GeoramA]

Guess I'll grab TLoU now that I own a Pro. Haven't played it since it launched on PS3, plus I never played Left Behind.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Thinking of getting a 2nd copy of TLOU Remasted just to have the MP always available w/o the disc, maybe I'll get back into it.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

How are the Record of Agarest War games? They've been on my radar for a while, but I never bought them. At 10$ for the 3 games, it's tempting.

Mediocre. $10 is a good price, but AW 0 actually includes the entire story of 1 so it's not quite a 3 whole games deal you're getting.

The artstyle isn't convincing me on shiren, but I like roguelikes, why is so good?

It's like the pinnacle of the genre. One of the oldest mystery dungeon games and this is the best in the series. Tons of content and gorgeous spritework throughout.

 

[TRUE ORDER]

Is MUA bundle worth the $30?
I think it's the lowest price that has got since it's release.

 

[OmegaZero]

The artstyle isn't convincing me on shiren, but I like roguelikes, why is so good?

This review by Jeremy Parish explains it far better then I could on mobile.
