I thought it was probably time to build a list of the PS4 games I don't already own that I'm actually interested in. Using the Metacritic and Wikipedia lists I came up with the following:

Counterspy
Escape Plan
Game of Thrones
Hohokum
LittleBigPlanet 3
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
Never Alone
Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty!
Shadow Warrior
Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments
Styx: Master of Shadows
Tales from the Borderlands: Episode One
Thief

Bearing in mind that I'm only interested in stuff that's actually been released--and that I already own Far Cry 4, GTAV, Wolfenstein, Shadow of Mordor and the Lara Croft twin stick shooter game--am I missing out on anything here?

You're missing The Last Of Us Remastered, given how much you enjoyed it in its not so remastered form.

Also, if you have any kind of local multiplayer gameness and enough pads to support it, Sportsfriends is a must for Poleriders and Johann Sebastian Joust.

I know I'm late to the party, but The Last of Us Remastered (disclosure - I never played the PS3 iteration and kept well away from any information on it, as I knew I would play it one day) is truly exceptional.

There was always a hesitance towards buying a PS4 as I feared it could gather dust (even after buying GTAV on the 360 I only played it for a week and didn't turn the console on for a full year after), but I've certainly got my gaming mojo back thanks to this beauty.

They could work on the collision detection for Ellie and walls a bit though.

Difficult to tell, as I'm not sure what you've avoided from last-gen or what you've played on the PC either.

Here's the list of things I've enjoyed so far on PS4 or that's available and I've already played on a different platform:

Peggle 2
The Walking Dead Season 2
P.T.
OlliOlli
Fez
Thomas Was Alone
Resogun
Pro Evo 2015
Hotline Miami
Octodad: Dadliest Catch
Trials Fusion
Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition
Lone Survivor
Super Mega Baseball (US account required)
The Crew
CoD: Advanced Warfare
Plants v Zombies: Garden Warfare
Rogue Legacy

I've got the following to start that I'm interested in:
LittleBigPlanet 3
Destiny
The Swapper
Nidhogg
inFAMOUS First Light
Race the Sun
Geometry Wars 3
Pure Pool
Valiant Hearts: The Great War
Velocity 2X

Yeah, I realised after posting that question that it would be slightly difficult to answer. All the stuff you've mentioned there I've either played on another platform or I'm not interested in so it looks like I'm covered here.

Is there anything in Peggle 2 that would excite me given that I played Peggle to death? I know The Boy would love it (which is both a positive and a negative)

Different powers ?

So far (i'm on the 3rd master) I'd say if you enjoyed the first one and wanted more then go for it (especially since its under £4)

If you got sick of the first one then there is not really anything 'new' on here to say you must have it

Ground Zeroes is so good it made me reevaluate the entire MGS series, which I never really got on with in the past.

Shadow Warrior is a great trashy FPS, although I played it on PC. I assume it's good on PS4 too.

Hohokum is lovely.

Bit OTT. That ending though? Typical MGS trash.

Ground Zeros is quite good for what it is but needs more indoor bits otherwise the buildings are just flat boxes to break up the lines of sight. I quite enjoy the MGS series for what it is - a convoluted series stuck up its own arsehole and repeatedly being shoved further and further up there. I thought that Zeros was a nice attempt at trying to peel back some of the bullshit but, y'know, Kojima...

I've just got this too. Clickers are fucking annoying and terrifying at the same time.

It can't be understated what a difference competent controls and pacing where the story doesn't get in the way of playing the game makes.

ApplePieOfDestiny · **Joined:** 17th Dec, 2008 **Posts:** 8293

I should finish the story tonight (main story, not left behind). Haven't given the MP a whirl yet

They remain terrifying all through the game, amazingly.

That's basically because you if you fuck up against one, you're probably dead. But it never feels cheap, it's always your own fault.

Trousers · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 3073

I have one of these now.

Currently I only have GTA5 and Minecraft (plus the freebie PS+ stuff) but will be looking to pick up Resogun and Geometry Wars 3 in due course.

So far I have been most amazed by the light in the controller flashing blue and red when the police turned up on GTA5 and the phone calls coming out of the controller. Such simple things but it made me giggle with delight like that baby with the ripping paper off of youtube.

Where was that thread that had everyone's gamertags / PSN names etc?

I'm Trousermang on there.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Mon Jan 19, 2015 9:03

Although it only lists the names people have filled in on their profile.

Trousers · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 3073

So I could have just searched for "Gamertags" which is the term I actually wrote in the post?

Sometimes I amaze even myself.

Thank you for doing what I was clearly too fucking stupid/lazy to do myself. I shall add those people laters - anyone not on there add me if you want. Or not.

My friends list is visible so you can view that on the PS4 from my profile and pick anyone off there you want, too.

FFS, just lost two games of Pure Pool to myp's DNA. This is a new low.

Hahaha!

I played one game against Trooper's last night and won!

MrC · **Posted:** Mon Jan 19, 2015 14:57

I wouldn't dream of playing Trooper's DNA after the real Trooper slaughtered me. The PS4 would probably just put up a big picture of him pointing out of the screen and laughing.

Also: If you don't have enough controllers. Or vaguely compatible sizes. A game between me and Grim... is always going to end the same way.

Maybe.

I came up with another important life lesson to do with Gay Chicken (to go with "don't play it with someone as determined to win as you are"), which is "don't play it with an actual gay person".

I don't think your social circle is completely suited to playing Gay Chicken.

"Life lesson" suggests you learned this by experience. Did you learn this by experience?

Yes indeed.

As did Riles (he was the equally determined player).

Just didn't feel a patch on the main game.

Basically, nothing is a patch on the main game though, including all the other games.

New PS4 game in an Unfinished Swan stylee.

Looks pretty funky.
