Playstation Plus Games June - NBA2K16 and Gone Home

Gone Home was very underwhelming.

I get it that the game was trying to toy with you and what you are expecting the game to be about. And it told the story of a lesbian couple and a dad who was raped as a child and having major pain with his marriage and life as a author.

But everything just felt sort of flat. This felt like Everybody Gone To the Rapture in terms of a good story but boring world. I wasn't expecting anything dark or supernatural even when I saw the red hair dye. But I was excited seeing something dark and something supernatural happening.

I feel very turned off because nothing exciting happened. I spotted the "They're just teasing me nothing bad is going to happen to me" from a mile away. Which ended up ruining my experience because I saw the twist.

I really wish this game had something supernatural then turn to the "it's not what you expect" card.

Though this game is about atmosphere of giving you chills and working you up. Which didn't work on me because I never felt the potential of something bad happening to begin with.

You're being generous calling it a game.
 
So it does have a beatable campaign? Interesting.

How long is it?

I just wish NBA wasn't 44gb, because it'll take forever to download.
The "story" is beatable yes in that it comes to a conclusion. Should take more than a bounce of hours to be honest. It's there as an afterthought though they would make you think otherwise.
 
So how to download those extra 25gb files for NBA? When I play the game, the progress just halts. When I quit the game, the download just errors out.
 
Man..I wouldn't get too invested in 2K16. It may look pretty now but wait til you actually play games above Pro difficulty.

AI is broken beyond comprehension. Just wait until a 65 rated center runs down the court faster than your point guard and phase through your player to steal the ball.
 
Wow just wow 2K16 is a mess switching from disc to digital.

I thought I purchased it the other night when I DL Gone Home but I already had the disc version installed so nothing actually downloaded. No big deal, deleted the disc install and DL the 7gb file. Now I can play Warriors vs Cavs as in the background "xx% copying game. Some features will not be present" Been on that for literally an hour last night while playing and 3.5+ hours today just sitting there idling and it's only at 87% checking in right now.... You actually have to have the game open for it to copy as well, tested that already. The original install of disc version was pretty painless just play a game or to and all is loaded.


Edit: checked back and install is complete and my online record is erased. I'm 0-0 :) time to destroy some newbies. Although records are now meaningless since a lot of vets dumped their discs. MyPlayer and points earned still in place fortunately.
 
Someone know some tutorial video for the NBA?

Attack is straightforward, but when I don't have the ball I get completely lost

You mean don't have the ball while on offense? Maybe try pausing and going to settings > coach settings. I'm not near my system atm so don't remember what exact names of the setting to change is. But I think you put the top one to Show all plays. Then on the two settings that have manual listed, change those to auto.

That puts an overlay of the play that the AI wants to run and shows you on the court where you are pose to be and what to do. Also lets they AI makes adjustments I guess.

Same here. I have no idea how to defend properly

just stick to your guy and try to follow him/stop him from gettin the ball has worked for me.

There is a tutorial vid in the main menu somewhere but it kinda sux.

There should be a OT for the game or something somewhere on gaf where you can ask for help though. I'm a casual :/.
 
Downloaded NBA2k16 the other day... finally booted it up... see it's copying files.. ok.. whatever.. waited until it downloaded the Blazers team... still sitting at 22% copied overall... so I play against the Cavs.

WiFi goes down... it fucking quits me out of the fucking game I'm playing.

BTW, why the hell is a BB game so damn huge? At the rate it's "copying" well actually downloading something in the background I won't play until tomorrow.
