Mr. Sinister Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 TLOU to me, was like the Conjuring of the video game world. Too much hype for it's own good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot is happening that I don't like, and realistically, gaming may not be in my future much longer, if it continues, so I'm not really sure if it is a worthy investment. Microtransactions? Damn EA..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that too. Truly unique games are hard to come by, because publishers refuse to take any risk. Matter of fact, publishers don't want to do anything but make the next Destiny and riddle the game with microtransactions. Amy Henick, who had a large role in making the Uncharted series for Naughty Dog, was making that style of game in the Star Wars universe and EA cancels the game because they refused to do microtransactions or do multiplayer. I feel like Microsoft is never going to publish another Sunset Overdrive. I'm surprised they even had Cuphead. And now Sony is following everyone else's example.

Mrshadow008 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 So question for you guys. The Fiance bought me a PS4 for Christmas. Trying to find a couple games to get her into a little bit of gaming. Now she loves horror movies so a couple of the games I was looking into getting her are outlast and until dawn ( been out a while I know). But she also loves the walking dead so was thinking about also getting the last of us for both of us. I know they have the tell tale walking dead series but I don’t know how I feel about shelling out for a bunch of different seasons of that. Was just curious if you guys thought these would be good choices or if y’all have any recommendations? I figure if I can get her interested in a couple different games I might be able to convince her to try some other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Last of Us is nice, but Dying Light is more down that alley. Outlast is also great A personal recommendation if mine would be Alien:Isolation. Nit the dead, but it will scare the plasma out of you. Just fear and playstyle of a different kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mournblade Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 If I had to recommend 5 games for the PS4, I'd go with 1. Uncharted 4 (Best game on the PS4, hands down) 2. Witcher 3 with DLC (Best fantasy game on the PS4) 3. Rise of the Tomb Raider (Outstanding Adventure) 4. Horizon Zero Dawn (Wilderness Adventure) 5. Brothers (a short but very sweet Fantasy Adventure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check it out in the PS Store, it's probably a really good value and many hours to go through. My wife likes games that don't require her to have the fast twitch skills of a platformer or FPS, but also have a great story. She enjoyed What Remains of Edith Finch, FireWatch and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I admit I enjoyed watching her play them because the storytelling was top notch and it didn't take too long to complete. Maybe she'll be into those kinds of games too.

Mr. Sinister Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 TellTales Season 1 and 2 were magnificent. I can't dpeak on the Michonne spinoff or Season 3 of TWD. Haven't played yet, but they largely do a good job with those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrshadow008 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Just checked and the whole thing besides season 4 is $50 so probably gonna have to grab that in a couple weeks. Thanks for all the recommendations. If you’ve got anymore just post them in here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebreaker Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 It was mentioned before, but Until Dawn is a great game. IMO, it puts Telltale's approach to making games to shame. Although I planned on getting a PS4 for Uncharted 4, I ended up getting one sooner when Until Dawn was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure if I can get her interested in a couple different games I might be able to convince her to try some other games. I have been playing Friday the 13th, which is a first person survival game. Each match can have up to 8 total players, one is Jason and the rest are counselors. Basically, the counselors try to escape and Jason tries to kill them, just like the movies. Personally, I love the game, but I have heard others speak negatively about it. As you advance you unlock different versions of Jason (Part 1, Part 4, etc.) and different counselors. I have Alien Isolation to play still, but I can tell you one thing, if @Mr. Sinister recommends it, he knows his horror, which is why I got it a while back. I just get so many games and hop around and come back to some later on. What I did play of it was pretty cool though and I remember the old Alien game on PS1 being awesome back in college. You can most likely get all the Resident Evil games (remastered) pretty cheap on there too. Those are some great games to play while sitting in the dark.

It's been a blast I swear I’ve been trying to play that game for like 2 years. I got about 4 missions in and I got hooked on the settlement building so I got the mods for unlimited resources and just got lost building a skyscraper on top of that rocket gas station and another one in the first town place. Every time I go back to it I just keep doing more of that and forgetting about the story missions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been killing myself trying to find supplies for the windmill and fusion generator to power the rest of the neighborhood (already have the center hub, and secured entrance with a steel wall, guard posts, siren, and recruiting signal (several more have joined up). Thats really all I've been doing Tried to go to that farm to get more supplies and ended up right in the middle of a Super Mutant ****nado. Didn't know this game went hard like that. They started pouring over the hillside towards me. Might've got maybe one good shot in before cow and rancher body parts started flying everywhere in a sea of angry bullets . They seem extra pissed off in this one. But yeah it's hilarious.

There is an alien ray gun in 4, but it doesn't show up for awhile. You'll actually see or hear the UFO fly overhead before it crashes and becomes available. Overseer's Guardian is the best, most-versatile weapon in the game (especially fully modded). You can get more firepower out of like, Ashmaker, but you can't get that until later and the ammo situation sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In nearly ocd, scrambling to get up any loose shrubbery or fix ****ty looking walls and roofs Yeah every time i go out, i get destroyed. I'm pretty proud of my gas station skyscraper though. Once entry point guarded by multiple turrets. The entire bottom floor is a room full of fire traps and sentry guns pointed at the door. if anyone not permitted enters, they are toast. Second level has windows all the way around with sentry guns pointed out each one to detect and annihilate any raiders or potential attackers. Third level is the living quarters, sofas, lounge chairs. 4th level is the game room with billiards table, some TVs and a radio 5th Level is the bedroom, cushy beds across the entire thing. Well above the threat of any danger for a peaceful nights sleep. 6th level is my penthouse. See now i want to go and make more settlements already. My next idea is to put a second level over the entire opening town where the settlers stay and all the riffraff will just pass through the deserted abandoned town underneath.
