Anyone else think the way the PS4 handles patches is the worst than last gen? I mean you can launch the application and then the patch starts to download and then you have to close the application to install it? Am I just crazy? Will it install when I am playing?

Didn't they make it better in a recent patch?

Before I didn't like it, but when I got my new PS4 and booted up Destiny for the first time, it took me a message page that said "This game has an update. Would you like to still play the game?" and then let me choose whether I wanted to start the game or just wait around for the update to be installed.

Wow, I didn't realize the base value was so low. $27 is crap for a brand new game.

Like others have said, it's just $27 because of the 50% trade in promo. It will go up to normal trade in value next week.

With the trade in bonus, it's still the highest TIV I've seen out there. Best Buy is awesome.

I didn't see that. Maybe my PS4 hasn't been updated. I just threw in last of us and closed the app assuming it was going to have a patch. Next time Ill let the game go through the process to see what happens. Thanks for the heads up.

Please tell me you got married on 9/11 before it became 9/11.

Yeah, we did.

Oh, I also forgot that my oldest was born the morning after indecision 2000. At least something was on TV the whole night while she was in labor.

The only thing that ties my youngest kids birthday to something else is that it is also my mom's birthday.

 
Some store "Bikram Arlington" posted on Twitter that they were having a sale. "9+11=20% off!" A slew of apologies followed. They have since deleted the post. LOL!

I don't see any difference in what they are doing by either "honoring" or "remembering" 9/11 that TV channels do. In the end the TV channels are profiting off it and people don't seem to have a problem with that.

Here's an article about Playstation Plus, and you can scroll down to the comments if you want to read what a whole bunch of retards have posted.

Maybe I'm being a little harsh, because it's ok for people to have different tastes in games.  But I don't think it's ok for people to blindly say games like Velocity 2X, Fez, Sportsfriends, Strider, Towerfall, Dragon's Crown, TxK, and Metrico "suck" without giving them a chance.  That's the part that pisses me off.

Stella, Colin M. from ign says Gravity Rush is overrated. How u feel about dat, doe?

Anyone who rates Escape Plan higher than Gravity Rush is fuck ing moron. Escape Plan is the equivalent of a shitty mobile game.

I finished Metal Gear Rising last night, fuck that last boss...I took his ass down. Think I'll skip the DLC for now, so I can sell the disc.

I started up Batman Arkham City, I can already tell I'm in for a treat. Thanks Plus!

I approve of the cheaper digital Resident Evil Revelations 2 and am looking forward to the game. Word.

I'm down to 8 physical games now. 2 are keepers (Spider-Man) PS1 and (The Bigs) PS3. 6 games and I'll be all digital like. I may even purge a couple more. Woohoo. fuck discs unless it's a great deal.

NPD numbers today.  August is going to probably be a super boring month though.  September will be far more intriguing with Destiny and the white PS4 bundle.

 
[quote name="pharmacrest" post="12084932" timestamp="1410449873"]I did not notice lag. But maybe I am not as good at perceiving these things. Also I havent played it offline in a long time.[/quote]

It could be because you hosted the game, but I'm not sure how it works. It's not a deal killer for Dead Nation in any case.

I just think it's hilarious. I should have also said that it got retweeted many times, then all the apologies, then deleted.

Mine is the Hiroshima atomic bomb drop.

Yes, it's real, this is an actual thing. I don't know why I am so excited even though I'll probably never buy the system to play it, but just that it exists makes me smile.

Guess I'll put "other" since I don't have a PS4 to make that judgment which is the best game in the poll.

I voted for The Last Of Us because I haven't played most of them. I have Ground Zeroes on the way, and I want to finish Infamous 2 before I do Second Son. I played Tomb Raider last gen so yeah it's kind of by default.
Click to expand...
This is pretty much my reasoning, as well. I only played Infamous: SS out of those retail games, and I have Diablo III and AC IV: BF in the backlog, but TLoU was so fantastic on PS3 that the vote was pretty much a given.

 
I voted for Other because Madden 15 is the only thing on the list I've played.

I want to play through AC IV before Unity comes out.

except he didn't rate it higher...on podcast beyond he explained the process, and several games he wanted on the list were vetoed, and escape plan made the list even though both him and Greg Miller hated it and make fun of it daily.

 
I'll abstain from voting because the only retail PS4 game I own is The Last of Us Reupped and all I have done is install it and get an update. Though I suppose as far as that experience goes it is the best so far. Maybe I should vote.
 
I'm playing through TLOU Remastered right now and I still can't figure out why people think this game is so special. The first time I played through it I immersed myself in the experience with headphones and all, which is not how I usually I play. I usually play games with no sound and watching movies, which is how I am playing now and I still think the game is a decent game, but not GoTY or even worth close to a 95 on metacritic. 80-85 sure, that's reasonable. It looks great, the voice acting is great, the conversations are great, but the gameplay is so incredibly fucking boring.

Re-listen to the episode, Greg had no love for it. Colin felt it should be there or was at least indifferent. Anyway Gravity Rush is way better than that garbage.

Considering the train of logic here of picking TLOU Remastered based on playing it on PS3, GTA V should be included in the poll then. You know, you don't have to play the PS4 version to know if its good.

Jesus, no, it's fuck ing stupid.

I'm not voting for Infamous: SS, that's for sure.

And GTA V isn't out yet on PS4, duh. :roll:
