Include PS3 games and they'll have my interest

Would doubt ps3 will ever be downloadable only streamable, PS4 doesn't have the PS3s CELL architecture and even high end PCs struggle to emulate it, ps4 has a native ps2 emulator so no problem with that.

Spent the last two days (well I get frustrated easy so it was more like 20 minutes over a 2 day period) trying to pair my headset with my PS4 Pro. It had been working but then just stopped. They don't make things easy and Youtube was useless.

What I want with a console is to get things, plug them in and it just works, don't want to be trying to figure out stuff. Came close to buying a new headset just for the instructions.

The feeling of elation afterwards was like having beaten a boss in Bloodborne though.

Brother gave me a PS4 he had knocking around, finally got around to picking up a controller (didn't have one) today, so looking forward to firing this up tonight. Haven't played a game since GTA-V on PS3, I'm excited...

Started playing The Last of Us today. Only a few hours in but loving it so far. That first level .....WOW.

Now, this is why I bought a PS4

I must make it the next game I play so. It's been sitting in my account for oh, the last 8 months or so.

That's also been sitting idle for longer than I'd care to admit.

You at least played The Witcher 3, right?

Do it. I only got my PS4 last month but I've wanted to play this game since it released. Decided to buy it Friday and I've binged it most of the weekend.

The writing and pacing of the story just draw you in. Could literally lose myself in it for the whole day without realising how long I've spent playing it and still want to know whats around the next corner.

Honestly think it might be the best game I've ever played and its gonna be one of those games where there's a void to fill after completing it.

Playing it on the Pro and its looks fantastic for a last gen title.

Does anyone know how to fix the 'update your account' thing in PS now, only some games are affected, one is Bloodborne and another is F1 2016
Currently on the free trial on a PC and will be paying for the 12 months later this week.

The DLC will fill the void nicely, it's a lot slower but amazing. Then you can embrace the emptiness.
Actually playing it on the hardest difficulty level (in saying that I only played the second hardest) is a different, enjoyable and totally distressing experience.

Any idea when Amazon will have their Christmas bundles out? They usually have good deals.

Finished main game there

Can't remember the last time I blitzed a game like that but its a hard one to leave down.

Will try DLC next I think, or maybe give it a little break and chance Persona 5 before I do.

Do the PlayStation sale games update weekly on the store and if so what day are they updated? Thought it was Wednesday but still has Ubisoft sale up at moment with CoD WWII as weekly deal.

gimli2112

I think it's haphazard.
Someone generally posts in here that a new sale is up and I go by that. I'd be careful of buying games late in the month as the PS plus freebies are out early next month. rumoured to be Nioh and something else.
I really want it to be Nioh.

Man, Nioh would be sweet. It's high on my list of PS exclusives to catch up on.

Sales usually last 2 weeks and start on a Wednesday

Rumour of Nioh and Diablo 3 and another rumour of Sniper Elite 3. I think the second rumour is more likely than the first tbh.

Every now and then I'll fire up Diablo 3, play it for a couple of weeks, really enjoy it and then realise I don't really know what I'm doing.

It's a game that's never held any appeal for me at all.

Definitely agree with Diablo. The random loot and repetition did'nt appeal to me in the slightest

EoinHef

I really enjoyed it,played a ton of it.

Personally id like to see more ARPG's on playstation. Grim Dawn and Path of Exile being the two i most like to see.

Played a lot of Diablo when it came out, one of the modes had perma death. Mate died fighting end boss with me.

Was recording voice chat but we weren't saying anything until he died, and then you can just hear his mournful gasp.

You can see the stuff floating out from his feet that did it.

Any link. Couldnt find them on the store, only paid content showing up for me. Not overly familiar with the store so that could be it too

I found them by opening the store on the PS4, then down along the side find game add ons. Then click on themes or avatars and they should be at the top. They don't seem to show up when you use the search bar.
