Got deal from my local game store for Kingdom hearts 1.5+2.5 HD remix on PS4 for £20*they retail it for £38* as they somehow lost the box for it. Always good to ask at the till if they have the game or not as they don't always put stock up in display..anyways i'm 3 main quest away from finishing horizon zero dawn now and what a grind so far for platinum trophy lol..things i got left to do for plat:
-Finish the main quest*3 more to go*
-1 or 2 more side quest remaining
- 1 more errand quest
-1 more corrupted zone
- get power armor
-find all collectables
- knockout 23 grazer dummies

Hopefully i can get it all done before Thursday as i'll be playing injustice 2 on release after work.

I am playing Persona 5 now. I have around 5 hours sunken into it so far.

The only thing I strongly dislike about 5 is that I am STILL in prologue phase where I am STILL getting tutorials and tips...

Aside from that, I haven't gotten far enough to make a proper judgement. So far it's pretty much identical with Persona 3. Some game elements are overengineered.

Rainbow 6: Siege is really good. I bought my PS4 Pro in December specifically to play this game online with my friends and I haven't regretted it. Mind you, I'm not too good at it, but it's still great. The game is absolutely brutal which makes for an addictive challenge, so I can see why my friend pestered me into buying the PS4.

One of the big problems with it for me is the obvious lag when trying to aim with the controller. There's just no way the same responsiveness as on the PC. I've also got the PC version in fact and I do play that one a bit better with the keyboard and mouse. I connected the PS4 controller to it which made it feel like a really high spec PS4. :rockout:

The worst thing about the game are the servers. Every time there's a patch they go down or are really glitchy. Also, despite there being so many players online, it still takes ages for the matchmaking to complete and we're often stuck with 4 of us in the squad with the 5th never coming. This tends to cause the other side to quit and quite often we have to quit and start the matchmaking again.

One of the best moments I had was when I was playing with 4 friends and one rando. That douchy rando voted to kick me from the game, not knowing I was with friends, so we laughed at him between us and kicked him out instead. Epic. :laugh:

lol

Persona series and the girls... For the record, I never had an issue of choosing a girlfriend in Persona 3 and 4.

I chose Yukari in 3.
I chose Sanada in 3 portable. <- P3 portable had a rare chance to play as a female, so I did. :D
I chose Chie in 4.

Those choices didn't require any thinking. I liked them from get-go and chose them without further ado.

But, in 5, I am having issues. As a part of my roleplaying, I don't cheat, so this decision is fairly important... The issue is that none of the girls clicks, for me at least. Hmmm...

I did enjoy playing RB:Siege on PS4 and i was very close to getting a plat on that too..only thing stopping me is that win a ranked game without noone dying in team which was impossible playing with random people lol.
They clearly lack the extra kick alucasa for your taste lol..anyways i've plat Horizon zero dawn which took about 50-55 hours in-game time which isn't too bad really,i played it a bit differently to the guide which led to me doing side,errand,cauldron etc thats below the main quest level..so if main quest level is level 20 then id finish all available side things below 20. Before i know it i am way over levelled which made it a bit easier with purple gear.

Now playing injustice 2,going through main single player story before i dive into training with one character which i am thinking of using Blue beetle as my main character..looking at some people created combo list its going be right challenge to remember them.

I think I like Persona 4 better than 5.

What I dislike about Persona 5...

1. The game is over-tutorialed. The game stopped giving me tips and tutorials after around 7-hour-ish. I hated it. I can figure things out by myself. Doesn't have to tell me every single stuff.
2. Chemistry between characters is weak. Persona 4 had strong chemistry between each other.
3. The girls are oversexualized and too cliche.
4. Some parts are overengineered. Like battle end report. I have to press X 3 times to end it each time. Gets tedious real quick.

Clearly trying to introduce and appeal to new people into the franchise.
Completed story for Injustice 2,feels much shorter than the first game and was really weak i thought the overall plot.

@kurosagi01 Your big into fighting games right? What would you recommend for a decent fighting game? I've been eyeing Injustice 2, but also looking at Mortal Kombat X. Any other recommendations?

Also did you see the new DBZ fighting game coming out?

Depends on the sort of playstyle you like really.
The way i rank fighting games are depending if you want play online:
Easy to pick up:
-Dead or alive
-Tekken

Casual-Technical:
-Injustice 2 *can play for story*
-Mortal kombat X*Jump on Injustice 2 as most MK players will jump on the next Netherelm game* *play for story*
-DB:Xenoverse 2 *Play for story*
Technical:
-Street Fighter
-Guilty Gear
-Blazblue

I have seen the new DBZ which is being developed by people that has done Guilty Gear and Blazblue.

So...Sony is increasing the price for PSN+,not impressed about this decision. Bad enough the retail price of games gone up and they are now charging a bit more on PSN+.

Going up at the end of August. Not sure if it affects US price but i'm assuming it is. The annual price at the moment in the UK for yearly subscription is £39.99,it is going up to £49.99 now which i can't justify paying when i rarely use the multiplayer at the moment. Going to be playing mainly exclusive titles now on the PS4 and everything else on PC.

US price was already increased a couple of months back, it wasn't surprising that we were next on the chopping block.

I've also got the black Pro, but only because I've preordered it, and my other consoles are also black.
