Just scored some cool Pinball tables from the current Humble Weekly Bundle. There are several cool tables such as the football and the Walking Dead table that I'm after. Working hard for some High Scores now.

Also just installed Helldivers, looking into that soon.

Uncharted 4 looks really good from clips I've seen.

People saying the plot line keeps them interested also.

Playing Uncharted 1 now, not as impressive as the 3rd, but more relaxing and fun to play.

Yeah, the 1st one is a bit clunky compared to the later ones for sure. I'm about halfway through the 4th Uncharted now, and it's flat out amazing. Story, acting, stealth, GRAPHICS, all are the best I've played. First game for me that actually makes the PS4 feel like a real upgrade over the last gen consoles. Stable too, no frame rate issues or anything. Really enjoying it, definitely lives up to all the hype.

Can't wait to play that one, I'm trying to finish the earlier episode first to understand the character and story line better.

Agreed.

The mo-cap acting and facial animations alone are simply astounding.

Refining the stealth mechanics is also a big plus.


The first big Fallout 4 DLC, Far Harbor, just released and so far it's a blast. That whole game is just 8O .

Looked too much like Fallout 3 or NV for me, not sure I could do it again :)

Overall there is a sameness about it compared to the other two, but it's just a lot more refined.

For one thing the shooting is much better in 4 than either of those. It actually plays like a real FPS.

The settlement building part is a total time sink. It's like a simplified but more realistic looking Minecraft.

Just tried Zaccaria Pinball, based on the comments seems like a great game. But I really didn't click with it at all. It's fun to try each table just for some historical reason. The tables look great, but too difficult compared to Pinball Arcade and FX2, appreciate both even more now.

I only have 2 positive things to say about Pokemon Go.

It’s a masterstroke of genius if it’s the Japanese plan to thin the herd by getting idiots to walk into traffic and off cliffs.

The South Park episode on it is going to be EPIC (if they make one).

Anyone who liked the game Limbo should check out the developer's new one called Inside. Another 2D masterpiece.

Big money to be saved when you aren’t really a gamer and can just wait.

On Amazon right now.

Blood Bourne $18.36
Batman Arkham Knight $13.67
Uncharted 4 $39.99

Those are the games I’m aware of that I don’t have. And yet I’m waiting for Mortal Kombat XL to drop below $45. :x


Imagine if music software followed that model, a year or less later figuring the early adopters are done purchasing so might as well drop the price 50% or more. 8O

I bought an entire PS4 a few months ago solely to play street fighter V. :oops:

Uncharted 4 looks tempting. I've seen gameplay and it is very awesome to watch. I've never been too good at playing anything involving moving through a stage and shooting stuff or climbing things so... I don't know.

But if you are thinking about getting MK, my Street Fighter blood has to chime in and ask you to consider trying SF:V :P

I don’t really have any fighter game nostalgia. For me it’s more about the characters and backgrounds. I like the doom and gloom of Mortal Kombat and the addition of Horror movie characters in XL. Street Fighter is just too bright and happy to me.
