just got my code for the playstation now beta, tested it out with platformer rocketbirds

it was ok, reminded me of playing FIFA online where you have to mentally build in a little buffer time for your inputs to register. wouldn't want to play anything too twitch reliant on it though

I tried Sniper Elite on it, and it sucked; I'm afraid to see how Skullgirls would've fared. For certain games I'm sure it'd be fine though.

My girlfriend is out of town this weekend so I would like to treat myself to a PS3 game. I'm thinking The Last of Us or Dark Souls 1 or 2, with GTA V as an outside option since I'm slightly embarrassed about games that have cartoon drawings of big boobs in all the marketing material. I want my lady to think that, even though I spent the weekend in my bathrobe, smoking weed and playing video games, I did it in a way that was grim and deeply lonely, not titties and fast cars.

try ffxiii

antexit, Wednesday, 21 May 2014 23:26 (nine years ago) link

ffxiii definitely one of the grimmest gaming experiences I've ever had, that's for sure

( X '____' )/ (zappi), Wednesday, 21 May 2014 23:33 (nine years ago) link

Last of Us imo

Perfect for an obsessive weekend delve. Not sure the weed will help though!

Nhex, Thursday, 22 May 2014 01:15 (nine years ago) link

As much as I love Dark Souls, Last of Us might be the best bet for a weekend jam.

Haha if I said "I'm gonna play FFXIII all weekend" she'd probably call an ambulance. Nobody's stupid enough to voluntarily play FFXIII.

fields of salmon, Thursday, 22 May 2014 01:53 (nine years ago) link

"FFXIII? Wait a minute, you're just waiting until I leave the house to take drugs, aren't you!"

"No, I really like the story and the linear non-branching gameplay option is really refreshing after playing the acclaimed and 17-year-old Final Fantasy Tactics repeatedly."

fields of salmon, Thursday, 22 May 2014 01:55 (nine years ago) link

LOL If I had a PS3 I'd be playing Metal Gear Solid 3, cos I've only ever attempted it on emulator and it is just too slow to play at the moment.

It is funny to hear Major Tom explain things to Snake at an incredibly relaxed pace with that nice accent of his.

I went with The Last of Us. Daaaaamn.

fields of salmon, Friday, 23 May 2014 03:29 (nine years ago) link

PS3/PS4 player looking to zone out on a new game this weekend, any recs guys? I like very violent action games with RPG elements or non-JRPG RPGs with action elements.

New Wolfenstein? Watch Dogs? something else? doesn't have to be new.

(I usually play all the tentpole games-- in terms of the last 12 mos Far Cry 3, Borderlands 2, GTAV, Last of Us, Tomb Raider, GTAV, Ghosts, Mercenary Kings, Infamous Second Son, Dark Souls 2, XCOM are all accounted for).
This is crossposted to the what ru playing now thread, sorry but i simply can't take the risk

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 14:54 (nine years ago) link

shit you DID already play tomb raider

Neckbread (Will M.), Friday, 30 May 2014 15:00 (nine years ago) link

Yeah, fun game but I only got about 10 hours out of it even with the stupid collectables. "This appears to be some kind of ancient coin! The nailpolish on it indicates it was used in an ancient jukebox!"

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:08 (nine years ago) link

Sleeping Dogs?

btw, since I never post anymore and this is the PS3 thread, my last year of gaming can be summed up by the following, which I noticed last night:

I logged 12 more hours on Mercenary Kings than I did on GTAV! That blows my mind.

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:11 (nine years ago) link

Played Sleeping Dogs, got bored of it once I was fully levelled up and never beat it, as often happens. You're on the right track though dudes! Keep it up!

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:12 (nine years ago) link

Oh wait actually the reason I stopped playing it was I kept getting stuck coming out of the ocean on these fucking idiot rockfaces that you can't scale and are like 10 minutes on foot in either direction.

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:15 (nine years ago) link

antexit what abt ass ass in screed

am0n, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:26 (nine years ago) link

If you're up to date with the Arkhams then it does sound like Watch Dogs is probably what you're after, unless you want to save that for next gen (which I'm leaning towards doing).

JimD, Friday, 30 May 2014 15:44 (nine years ago) link

you're long done with elder scrolls, yeah?

how about kingdoms of amalur or dungeons dogma?

or whatever the fuck those were called

Wolfenstein!

▴▲ ▴TH3CR()$BY$H()W▴▲ ▴ (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 30 May 2014 16:59 (nine years ago) link

I hate Assassin's Creed. How come there is apparently no single period in all of history that people don't fucking blunder right into you when they see you walking toward them?

I am grudgingly leaning toward Watch Dogs (on PS4), which I fully expect to be another crappy Ubisoft game where I am forced to sit through 6 cumulative hours of unskippable cutscenes featuring a protagonist who looks and acts like some nerd in 1998's idea of a cool dude.

I ruined Skyrim for myself by grinding my character up to God Mode level, unfortunately. All other Elder Scrolls games are long done.

Dungeons Dogma looks cool but I think I want guns.

Is Wolfenstein actually good? Has anyone played it?

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 17:02 (nine years ago) link

hey, dishonored!

only thing i know about Wolfenstein is this hilarious cutscene where Jimi Hendrix rails against The Man and then gives you acid

Beat Dishonored 2x. Maybe I need a life?

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 17:12 (nine years ago) link

you need a more complex game.

Wolfenstein is pretty awesome. Not much in the way of RPG elements but top notch fps combat. Plus you can play it stealthy or play it guns blazing whatever suits you at the moment.

▴▲ ▴TH3CR()$BY$H()W▴▲ ▴ (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 30 May 2014 17:18 (nine years ago) link

Wolfenstein is really, really good.

bizarro gazzara, Friday, 30 May 2014 17:21 (nine years ago) link

YAY! Thanks guys. Wolfenstein it is.

antexit, Friday, 30 May 2014 17:36 (nine years ago) link

isnt wolfenstein set in a 60s where the nazis won?

does that means they ended up successfully killing all the jews?

socki (s1ocki), Friday, 30 May 2014 20:11 (nine years ago) link

and does that dampen at all the funhouse atmosphere of the world it takes place in?

socki (s1ocki), Friday, 30 May 2014 20:11 (nine years ago) link

The lead character is jewish, as are some NPCs, so the answer to your second question is no.

okay, that makes the mordy star much more complex for me to parse now

whoa

wait you're not the legendary BJ Blazkowitz?

Flash RPG sale in the Playstation store, most notably Mass Effect Trilogy for $15 and Dragon Age Origins for $5.

Surprise, It's My Butt (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 4 June 2014 05:00 (nine years ago) link

also Ni No Kuni for $5.

mohawk ororoducer (abanana), Wednesday, 4 June 2014 05:13 (nine years ago) link

Ni no kuni for $5 is a no brainer if you don't already have it. It's amazing.

Everyone is awful except you. Wait, no, you are also awful. (jjjusten), Wednesday, 4 June 2014 08:19 (nine years ago) link

NBA 2K14 free on Plus. Nice surprise for me, since I was too lazy to buy it this year

Nhex, Wednesday, 4 June 2014 18:17 (nine years ago) link

Thanks for the Wolfenstein rec, guys, it's awesome. The BFG-type weapon is surprisingly and disappointingly sucky (unless I haven't found it yet?), but everything else about this game is pretty awesome. Best shooter I've played in forever, and maybe the most satisfying stealth mode ever in an action game? Aside from the idiot enemy AI that disregards sentries disappearing from expected posts even on the highest difficulty levels, that is.

antexit, Wednesday, 4 June 2014 18:27 (nine years ago) link

Oh, except Far Cry 3, I guess. Also the L1 lean is great and every FPS should rip it off from now on

antexit, Wednesday, 4 June 2014 18:29 (nine years ago) link
