Yeah gonna order Alien Isolation via psn tonight, I guess after midnight it will can be purchased

 

Should be available to preload by now. I bought Driveclub (digital) last week, I think that's out on Wednesday here so should be preloading today/tomorrow.

 

right, but hell you overpaid for about 10 pounds, I guess I just will order a copy, just to wait is a pain in the ass, I'm still trying no to watch gameplay videos on youtube

Overpaid? For Driveclub? The Plus upgrade ver. was £35, I bought a cheap code online and it cost me £30 for the full version.

sorry messed up the post, overpay for Alien Isolation on psn, you can find physical copy is cheaper ;)

Just getting stuck into shadow of mordor, i like. the combat feels just like the batman games but with swords and murder, which is a good thing.

Gotcha, np. I can see it being heavily discounted in the run up to the busy Christmas release schedule. I am still tempted to get the PC edition now though, can get it for a nudge under £25... hmmm

Dem executions doe, visceral as you like

Game runs like butter, even when you're crowded and it's all kicking off. There is a bit of 'mash X to win', but there is depth in the combat system which allows for stylish flourishes rather than just 'stab stab STAB' on repeat

Yeah, that's why fanboys are blind to the fact that every game after MSG1 is unplayable, nonsensical garbage.

i enjoy MGS2-4. most of it was enjoyment coming from continuing the crazy story and seeing where the games went next.

it was like reading some crazy unpredictable comic series that borders on ridiculous but great and ridiculous but kinda stupid. and it was fun. kind of like frank miller's sporadic crazy output?

i've only played the MGS games once and keep feeling like wanting to play through them again but can never get around to it, so you may be onto something, but at the same time i really enjoyed MGS1-4 (yes, even fan service heavy 4!!) so i don't know if i 100% agree.

i tried replaying the series a few times and starting with twin snakes on the gamecube but that game is horrible...

it has MGS2 style controls and mechanics but dumped on MGS1 layout levels and the whole thing feels like a bit of a weird un-enjoyable mutation. plus the cutscenes have been robbed of all substance... i kept trying to enjoy the game and beat it properly but i think I'm coming to terms with twin snakes definitely being a mediocre game..

mgs2 is awesome and the story actually makes way more sense now than it did when it came out.

i love the sound effects in that game.

crunchy european stormtrooper shouts.

MGS is a favorite of mine. I played each one as they came out and loved every bit of it. I can't wait to play MGS5.

Dark Souls II DLC, Crown of the Ivory King is amazing - great way to cap off an amazing game. Still getting my ass handed to me by the Ivory King though...

thinking of getting a ps4 this year and the new COD to go along w/the free ps+ games i've been hoarding and hopefully they'll release nidhogg and samurai gunn before the end of the year. really miss good local multiplayer.

Yea new COD looks great.

Finally was able to afford a ps4. I'm in the future.

Branding a warcheif's bodyguards and then getting them to turn on him is super satisfying.

The graphics in DriveClub look absolutely gorgeous.

Aye, bet Polyphony Digital are bricking it - wonder how/if they can counter it with GT7 ?

^ can't wait

I bought Alien earlier, it's unlocked on Steam already. Gulp.

Vib Ribbon is being released as a PSOne classic on PS3 and Vita tomorrow in the US, with EU following suit next week. Sony 'working on' PS4 version. Ability to use your own CDs still functions in the PS3 version. Bring on the Syrobonkus Ribbon!

Really? I was a little underwhelmed tbh, although I don't have a PS4 so that might be part of it.

Is driveclub supposed to be more of an arcade racer like NFS or Burnout, or more realistic simulaton like Gran Turismo?

Leans more towards arcade, but with the visual flair more traditionally found in simulation titles.

Awesome, may have to look into it, been needing a good driving game for a while... Need For Speed Rivals was terrible.
