Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 27, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 27, 2019 Conan Exiles is that MMO isn't it? The Surge sounds interesting if you're a fan of the "Soulsbourne" style. I might give that a little look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Played Soul Calibur VI online for the first time. Immediately ran into a spammer. Suddenly remembered why I hated SCIV online and never touched V. Thankfully the single player is a return to form for the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I reckon Sony are definitely working on their own version of a game pass. This month is so underwhelming and they've done away with the cool little indie games and VR stuff that they used to pad it out with. I don't think we'll get all first party games like Xbox but I hope they're working on something better than this scaled down PS Plus we've had the last couple of months.

Mr_Danger Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I'm not altogether au fait with the game pass but is it not like a much better version of ps now with all first party games on it? I'd hope by next gen PlayStation will have something closer to that. I know we won't be getting The Last of Us 2 and Death Stranding as part of a sub service, not as long as they are the market leaders, but a better version of PS Now with the added features of PS + would be nice.

The King Of Swing Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Game Pass: All games downloadable, exclusives usually go on there on release. PS Now: PS4 games are downloadable, everything else is streaming. Funnily enough I signed up for Now today and I'm quite happy with it so far. Only played PS3 games so far (what finally enticed me) and they are working fine, though I'm on fibre optic. Currently playing Ninja Gaiden 2.

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 28, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 28, 2019 Picked up Parappa The Rapper & Parappa 2 in a sale on PSN, both for about £6.50 altogether. The level baking the cake is ridiculous because Cheap Cheap Chicken has a really interesting flow to her lyrics, and apparently there's some input lag when playing on an HD TV. Not a fun time. Classic games, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I couldn't play the HD version due to input lag on my awful HDTV from Tesco, it doesn't even have a game mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there's a setting where you can get your pad to vibrate as a prompt of the button press. I may try and find this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Accident Prone Posted March 29, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 29, 2019 Started playing Grim Fandango last night on the Vita. My first time playing it and, despite the controls be slightly awkward, it's fucking lovely, isn't it? It's aged tremendously well. The scene where you first meet the mechanic had me laughing like a fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Forgotten just how fucking cheap MK9's story mode can be even on beginner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 29, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 29, 2019 It's input reading at its finest. MK3 in the arcade is the worst though. It's all about finding a pattern to exploit. Street Fighter 2' and Hyper Fighting are bad as well. The AI checks what your character is doing at set intervals, then reacts accordingly, but any special moves come out instantly without any need for execution so you get such lovely effects as "walk forward flash kick" from Guile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, anyone know where the cheapest place is to get a (official) PS4 controller? They seem to be £50 new most places and even 2nd hand only seem to drop to around £45.

It had such an unusual mature, melancholy vibe yet still packed with gags. Love the soundtrack too. I own the remaster but have never touched it. Quietly hoping it wouldn't ruin my memory of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
