FYI Fry's is selling the Destiny White Bundle + Killzone + plantronics headset for $450. Not amazing but there's some sale value in a few of those. Or at least stocking stuffers.

Any word coming down the pipe yet on a Holiday price drop for PS4? I have the money set aside for one, but not sure if I should see about grabbing one around black Friday, or hold out a bit.

There is supposed to be a Gran Turismo 7 for PS4 at some point, and the MEH of GT6 makes me optimistic that GT7 will be good.
I forgot that there are two LEGO games on PS4: Marvel and LEGO Movie. Not sure what else is local coop. Publishers are not interested in local coop since they would sell half the copies of a remote coop game.

GT6 feels like it was abandoned for GT7. Given the PS4 is just a MUCH faster PS3, I expect GT7 to be the game they actually wanted to make.

Here's hoping, right? I feel like the driving in GT6 is what they wanted in GT5, but there isn't any other game there. I'm collecting stars like fucking Mario. At the moment I'm feeling good about not buying that PS3 wheel.
PSN is still a wasteland on PS4. Free games this month are Elysian Tail and Spelunky, woooo. Already got those on Steam some time ago. PS3 games are apparently NOT going to be converted in favor of me paying to stream them from the Sony Mainframe... which is possibly a bunch of 60GB PS3 that they are sitting on.
Last night I was buying Minecraft again (yeah I know) on PS4 and my wife drifts by to ask if I'm buying some girly Japanese games. I said I wish there were some of those on PSN. Not even an Atelier game.

I'm pretty upset that Persona 5 is on the PS3 and not the PS4. In 2015 no less.

I thought I saw Catherine on there somewhere while browsing around.

New PSN store is a big improvement over the PS3 variant, but still awful. Exploring it seems to take up a large part of my evening.

Naw, it's not an improvement. It's awful. The PS4 is just super fast.

The UI change they made to the PSN store a while back is horrifically bad and is incredibly sluggish on the PS3 compared to the old UI.

It really is terrible, clunky and slow. It surfaces no personalized content and is hard to find things I want to buy. It shouldn't serve the extraneous stuff (avatars, themes) in sales lists. I know all that stuff is filterable, but why should I have to set that filter every time I want to see what is on sale?
Really confusing ideas on that UI.

Any of you with an Xbox One have an issue with the left stick on the controller? Broken / drifting left stick seems to be a common complaint.

Not as of yet. I wish the spring tension was a bit higher, but that's not a wear issue.

I do. My left stick seem to pull a bit forward and to the right. When playing Titanfall my character would constantly try to autorun forward because of it. MAde the entire experience pretty unenjoyable. Anyone complaining about the PSN store on ps4 may not have tried to use the xbox store. Browsing for stuff is a complete nightmare.

That is true, I mostly avoided the XBL store. Is it "better" on XBOne?

Got a lot of whargarbl today from someone that wants to transfer saves between PS4 Minecraft and Vita Minecraft. Apparently possible between PS3 and Vita. Not sure why I'm the guy who is supposed to be able to solve this.
I almost looked to see how much a Vita is but then I saw my PSP over in the corner, where it's been for maybe 18-24 months.

The gameplay was very repetitive, the story "choices" didn't influence anything aside from the ending, and it had the worst dub in the history of awful dubs.

I haven't seen the Xbox One version but the 360 version was painful for somebody like me who used their 360 infrequently. On top of having to struggle with the fucked up Metro interface where it was always a guessing game which tile would get highlighted on a directional button press you had to wade through long linear lists of items in the store that were slow to load.

I found it tedious and boring. That's both gameplay and story. I didn't get far.

I love how everyone is fucking raving about the new Bayonetta and then there's this:
LEVEL, 6/10 Over the top yet unimaginative. At least the fights are dynamic and the game itself can be a breath of fresh air, considering what else is available on the Wii U. [Issue#245]

People kinda look for shit to justify their WiiU purchase after realizing that most of Nintendo's first-party titles so far have been about an inch deep and generally found to not be that great after you play them for more than a day.

Yeah it was pretty cool seeing the MK8 hype explode for like a day or two when it came out then people realized it was kinda bad and still had stupid stuff like CPU rubberbanding or whatever and no one was talking about how it played after a week and mostly just posting gifs of creepy luigi.

Catherine was great because the atmosphere was great, and the gameplay was actually nice as long as you played it at normal-easy difficulty setting. It wasn't even too long, which is what was scaring me since I am not fond of puzzle games. Or you can put it in a different way: it was a nice puzzle game with a bonus cool anime around it. The dub to me was as awful as all the dub from the Persona/SMT games: awful, intoxicating, and awesome.

I liked that the puzzles were actually pretty challenging once you got past the early levels. You really had to learn some of the tricks of climbing and you had to be fast.

Yes, I appreciated the speed at which the gameplay was paced. The window-dressing was basically trash, which was fine.

The Xbone is getting another pricecut here in a week; $50 off including bundles. So $349. Lmao, just give them away at this point.
