Fierce_LiNk Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Me too. Presumably you can't get the free PS plus game on PS4? You can add the Vita/PS3 games to your account and play them on those systems if you own them, but you can't play them on the PS4 directly.
RedShell Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Finished Far Cry:Blood Dragon (PS3) this afternoon. It's a game I've been wanting to play for a while and thanks to PS+ I got it as part of this months offerings. The game is genuinely hilarious. It's very aware of itself and constantly pokes jokes at video games and movies. The 80s action and sci-fi references are fantastic and constantly had me chuckling away to myself. Michael Biehn does a fantastic job of adding to the 80s feel and hams up his lines quite nicely. Doing the Rambo screaming while firing a mini gun = cheesy grin from me. Special mention has to go to the soundtrack. Again, it's sooooo 80s action flick and there's certain themes that play that could easily have been ripped out of any one of Arnie or Slys films. Finally, the final section of the game had me in stitches. If you're a fan of Rocky IV and aren't too bothered about seeing the mission then give this a watch. Brilliant! Thanks for reminding me about this game (hadn't even purchased any of this months PS+ titles yet! ) I had a quick go on it last night, and sure enough it was hilarious! Not watched the vid you posted, but having pissed myself to the introduction of the game, I'm sure it's gonna be great. :awesome:
lostmario Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Got the Platinum trophy on Star Wars: Battlefront yesterday. Fantastic game that I have played way too much over the last 2 weeks. I'm not usually someone who cares about gamerscore and trophies but as I kept unlocking them and got closer and closer to 100%, I thought why not have a go at it. Helped that I was playing it with @Hero\-of\-Time most nights so I could get his advice on certain trophies. The Walker Assault trophies were a right pain to get as I hate that mode so much. I am in need of a little break from it now. Next up, getting the Platinum trophy on Driveclub which is going to take a while.
Jonnas Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 I've been in a phase of "play games casually, don't try too hard to reach the end", and I've ended up completing a game whose heyday was years ago: Plants vs Zombies (Game of the Year) Title was unclear, didn't understand conflict Everybody knows this game, no use in me describing it. A Tower Defense that's pretty fun, colourful, addictive, goal-oriented, etc. and manages to stay fresh throughout the whole thing. The version I played on Steam had plenty of achievements, and I got them all before declaring the game "complete". I had a disliking to the Tower Defense genre games in the past, since they're usually endless and/or have incredibly easy goals, but decided to give this one a shot. Surprisingly appropriate for the schedule I've had recently, so it's a genre I'll be paying more attention to in the future. Maybe.

Fierce_LiNk Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 I finally got the Platinum for Rocket League today! That Far, Far Away trophy kept holding me back. I let @Eenuh take over my controller for a bit whilst I showered. I had her just driving around the track, trying to rack up the miles. A bit gutted that the trophy popped up when she was doing it, but I did the other 99% of the work towards this trophy, so it's still mine. The game is awesome. Fun as fuck! Just a blast in multiplayer and it's also excellent pick up and play stuff. Would recommend to everyone. I've only got two trophies left for DriveClub. One is to achieve level 50 and I'm currently 45. The other should pop up before it, so that should be another platinum on the way.

Fierce_LiNk Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Another game completed in quick succession. Well, I say completed, I mean that I've completed the campaign in Sound Shapes. I like this game a lot. The Beck level "Cities" is sublime and it's a fantastic contribution to this game. The DeadMau5 levels are quite tricky and they're not quite as fun or as catchy as the Beck ones. The level creator is a welcome addition and I also ended up buying the additional sound packs for this, too.

Eenuh Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 I decided to play Grow Home, after @Fierce_LiNk told me to give it a try. I finished it today, but I can't say I really enjoyed it much. The controls just feel too loose and ropy, making your character move in every direction but the one you want him to actually move into. I cursed so many times as BUD fell off a platform as I was trying to maneuver around it, or as he fell of a vine I was trying to climb cause the camera wasn't aligned with his movement... The game started out ok but it soon got pretty boring/tedious, just climbing up (falling a million times in the process) and collecting the odd bits. Not even sure why exactly I was doing what I was doing, I think I must have missed some part of the intro that explained it. I didn't hate the game, but to be honest, I was glad I finished it. And decided I wouldn't bother collecting all the other things I missed. :P Bayonetta Hyrule Warriors Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition Smash Bros 3DS/Wii U Valiant Hearts Dust: An Elysian Tail Velocity 2X Rogue Legacy Cities:Skylines Bayonetta 2 Never Alone Fez Guacamelee The Unfinished Swan Super Exploding Zoo Infamous: Second Son Infamous: First Light Hotline Miami Thomas Was Alone Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor (Platinum) Entwined Journey Bastion LIMBO Everybody's Gone To The Rapture Sound Shapes Escape Plan Rocket League (Platinum) The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt The Witcher 3: Heart of Stone (DLC) Grow Home

Hero-of-Time Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Finished and platinumed Final Fantasy VII (PS4) earlier in the week. Absolute classic game. It's crazy how accessible it is and how goofy it can be sometimes. It's gonna be interesting to see what gets cut and what remains in the remake. I started playing Dragon Age: Inquisition (PS4) soon after finishing FF. The reason being that I refuse to play The Witcher 3 until this is done. Both games seem similar and this has been sitting on my shelf for too long. Once it's done I will then feel ok about buying The Witcher. It's my first DA game and i'm really enjoying the game so far. I'm loving just running around the Hinterlands, doing missions, speaking to people, levelling up and closing rifts. There's so much to do! I like it when I set off to do one thing and then end up finding a cave or something , which sends me doing something completely different. While i'm lacking focus, i'm finding it a great way to keep things fresh. I ran into my first dragon while randomly running about. Yeah, I pegged it! The thing took my whole team out with one fireball and I quickly turned around and got the hell out of there. Clearly i'm not ready to fight that thing yet! There's still a lot to take in and it's slow going as i'm playing on Nightmare difficulty. Currently sitting on 10 hours played and level 7. I was hoping to get more done on it while I had a holiday from work but sadly this didn't happen.
RedShell Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 2 more games for my diary, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and FAST Racing NEO. Blood Dragon was most entertaining due to its full-on cheesy 80's vibe. Gameplay-wise I thought it was pretty crappy, but definitely worth playing just to enjoy the gags/references though (for those of us that are old enough to get them that is ). Also took FAST Racing NEO for a spin this month. Gorgeous looking game that's also very challenging! I would've preferred a bit more content really, and some basic stat tracking could've gone a long way to making the online mode more appealing. However, considering the size of the development team and the price of the game, it's a nice addition to the Wii U library.

bob Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I've got 16 straight days off work from Saturday, and only have about 3 evenings when I'm at home and available to play games. I are sad! My backlog increases yet again!
Jimbob Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Just finished Tearaway Unfolded. Overall, not too bad. Have to admit, it did lose some of the shine of the original game. But none the less, it was a great game. Felt new in many places, even though it was the same story as the Vita edition.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 After 76 hours of playing, Dragon Age:Inquisition (PS4) is complete and the platinum trophy mine. Loved it. I'm not really a fan of western RPGs but i'm glad I stepped out of my gaming comfort zone and gave this a whirl. The characters and story really helped to pull me into the world, despite me never playing a DA game before. When I was going for the romance trophy I was trying my best to bed Cassandra. I also kept my options open by flirting with every character that was going, even Dorian. Turns out that my flirting with him was stronger than what I was doing with Cassandra! I ended up bedding him instead! Not what I intended but I got the trophy at least. I drank from the Well during one of the final missions. This gave me a boss fight with a dragon, which ended up helping me during the final battle. I wonder, if I let Morrigan drink from the well would that mean I wouldnt have the dragon help me during the fight? During the end scene Cassandra ended up become the next Divine and Solas became left the Inquisition and ended up being taken over by some spirit. Again, I wonder if my choices during the game made this happen or whether these things always occur? Nightmare difficulty was a bit tough at the start but eventually I got to grips wth the game, done all the sidequests that levelled me up nicely and started kicking butt and taking names. This was very apparent when I chose my specialist class ( Knight Enchanter ) and my barriers were stupidly strong. I then dumped Solas for Vivienne ( also a KE ) and dropped Varic for Blackwall. I had 2 stupidly strong mags and 2 stupidly strong tanks. Yeah, I was set for the rest of the game at that point. Next up is Mario Tennis Ultra Smash (Wii U). You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website. View post in Miiverse This game just screams of a missed opportunity, as well as laziness. Mechanically I think it's pretty sound. It plays very much like the 3DS MT game, what with all the chance shot spots appearing on the court. What lets this down is the complete lack of game modes and options. I only got the game yesterday, played it a few hours here and there and ended up unlocking everything already. I should check my playlog and see just how much time it took to do get everything. The Mega Mushroom brings nothing to the table other than frustration and boredom. When you and your opponent get one the game just becomes a chore because neither of you can really score a point due to the size that you are. I also kept getting screwed over because I would lineup up a shot and then suddenly get small, meaning the ball would just fly past my now small character. Very stupid mechanic that has no business being in the game. I knew most of these issues when buying the game but I wanted to see if it was as bad and barebones as everyone was saying. Yup, it is. Shoddy attempt to fill in a spot for the Christmas peroid by Nintendo.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 @Hero\-of\-Time, now that you've finished Dragon Age, you should leave it a while before you start on The Witcher 3. I feel that the games may be too similar.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 @Hero\-of\-Time, now that you've finished Dragon Age, you should leave it a while before you start on The Witcher 3. I feel that the games may be too similar. Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon, @Blade.....sooon. I've been playing BOXBOY! (3DS) on and off for the past few days. I snapped it up just after I bought Cloud for SMash Bros. as I had enough left over for it. I was hoping that it would be on sale back in november ( it was for the Yanks ) but sadly it never happened. I finished it this morning... You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website. View post in Miiverse ...and really enjoyed it. Its certainly a fun little puzzler and new ideas kept coming throught the whole game, which helped keep it feeling fresh. BoxBoy himself was a surprsingly charming character, despite him just being a box with eyes. But then, HAL managed to make people to care about a pink circle with eyes as well. After that I decided to give Bayonetta (Wii U) another go. You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website. View post in Miiverse I've finaly made some great progress on the game! It's only taken me three attempts to do so. I think i'm on the 11th chapter and having looked it seems there's only 16 chapters in the game. I didn't realise it was so short. Maybe I will finally finish the game. I'll leave my thoughts about it until I have beaten it. If I keep cracking on then I should have it done this afternoon.
Blade Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 @Hero\-of\-Time Yes!!! Finally!!! :D you'll probably get the platinum before I do too! Haha! Also dont forget to download all the free DLC!

View post in Miiverse A big reason why I never finished the game was due to how much I detested Bayonettas character. I really disliked her cocky, arrogant attitude and this was enough to turn me off the game. This time I just pushed through it all and I actually ended up liking her character by the end of the game. This is due to some great character growth, which showed a more caring side to her. The story was absolutely nuts, as were the cutscenes. There were more than a few times where I found myself laughing at what was on screen, especially Lukas various reactions to what was happening all around him. I'm surprised I managed to go all this time without seeing any spoilers as to what the deal was with the little kid. The soundtrack for the game is fantastic. There's some epic stuff in there, along with some nice J-Pop style tunes. When the Space Harrier music hit I was in heaven. I had such a cheesy grin on my face. I'm well happy that I forced myself to sit down and get through the early stages of the game, which allowed me to experience the rest of it. Now for my next outing...

But hearing this has cheered me up no end! I'm very pleased you stuck through, because Bayonetta is a truly wonderful game with great humour, characters and stonkingly good gameplay. Looking forward to seeing what you think of 2. I personally enjoyed it even more.
RedShell Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 @Hero\-of\-Time, great to see you finally getting through Bayonetta (and hopefully Bayo2 as well ) I always had the feeling that if you got into the game more it'd eventually win you over, did try to let you know too. Anyway, looks like I'll be updating my diary again after all, as the credits rolled on Just Cause 3 yesterday! :awesome: What an entertaining game, and easily the best sandbox title I've ever played. The amount of stuff you can do by combining all of Rico's tools is just incredible. It's also a game that pushes the PS4 to its limit! Once you start getting creative (i.e. silly) with the chaos, it's pretty much destroying the console! For example, I filled a truck up with about a dozen bodies + other random stuff but with so many physics based objects in a confined space the frame rate took such a huge hit! Literally single figures per second it looked like! I'm amazed the engine even allows for that. You'd expect some objects to vanish over time, but it seems like there's no limitations in place! Anyway, I fully liberated the map before finishing the story, but still got quite a few collectibles to obtain and challenges left to do, not to mention just messing around with the citizens of Medici some more. Just a shame there's no option to change the appearance of Rico, as I'm not a fan of how they made him look like Diego Costa in this version.

Ike Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 I'm a not a big fan of Bayonetta the character, but I enjoy the game. I'm find with her being in Smash though for some reason. Which reminds me I should play through Bayonetta 2...
nekunando Posted December 23, 2015 Author Posted December 23, 2015 You've always given the impression that you dislike the character of Bayonetta just as much as I, @Hero\-of\-Time, so it's slightly encouraging that you managed to get past that in order to enjoy the first game. I never really embraced the demo of Bayonetta 2 so have never been particularly interested in it but given that I've made some questionable Wii purchases over the course of 2015, I've tempted to trade them in towards Bayonetta 2 in order to give it a proper go

View post in Miiverse I found the game enjoyable but not a patch on the first game. The original game had far more humour in it, was way more wacky and just more fun to play. I wasn't keen on the amount of boss fights and mini boss fights in the second game. There seemed to be one every other level and to make this more annoying a lot of them seemed to be damage sponges. The music also wasn't up to the standard that the original game set. There were one or two levels that had some decent tunes but for the most part the music was very forgettable. I did enjoy the story, though. Possibly more than I enjoyed the first games narrative. The Back to the Future style hijinks were a great addition. I noticed that there was a lot less sexy stuff in the sequel as well. I'm wondering if they turned things down a bit, given it was made a few years later. This also got me wondering about a third game. Seeing that there are so many games these days being cut or changed for a western release (due to our overly PC society) I wonder if a 3rd Bayonetta would calm things down even further? So, that's both of them finally off the backlog shelf and placed into the complete games area. Well happy.
