That's not bad at all. Sadly have GoT already (and completely untouched), but Until Dawn will be good (though I just finished Life is Strange so need a break from click-through-a-story-now-make-a-choice-type games for a bit. |

The only PS+ game I've had good value out of was Rocket League, and that would've cost me £15. It's available on PC so I've moved to that now. As much as I enjoyed GTA nights etc, I just don't have time for late evening gaming anymore, as Sal works 12-8 most days so it's the only time we get together. |

Has anyone tried playing Assassin's Creed: Freedom Cry yet? It's pretty rough to start with if you haven't played Black Flag (yeah, go on then, drop me straight into a ship combat section with no real explanation of what I'm doing) and compared to Syndicate the stealth mechanics are kind of random (can those people over there see me? Or not? Who the fuck knows!) but it settles down a bit one you're an hour or so in. And then the game breaks entirely! One of the first proper main mission sections has you blowing up a lookout tower by placing an explosive barrel under it and setting it on fire. Or that's how it's supposed to go anyway, but the exploding barrel doesn't actually do anything. Oh, assuming you can even find one because two of the four collection points for said barrels feature a nice red indicator floating in mid-air over sweet fuck-all because the game couldn't be arsed spawning the actual barrels in. After exploding four barrels in the exact spot indicated by the game to no avail I gave up and restarted the level only to get exactly the same result, so fuck that noise. At least this has saved me wondering whether it's worth going back and playing any of the older AC games I suppose. |

I gave it an hour. I really enjoyed the boat bit although the HUD and the onscreen icons really irritated me since it was quite lovely to look at and didn't need all that shit. The giant screen spanning fucking rectangle to show the sideways direction of the cannons was ridiculous. The cut screens were terrible too and it was immensely jarring when you got about 20 seconds of crashing through gorgeous waves in an imminent storm only to be pulled away from the best experience which was traded for another shit cutscreen. Then the main game got going and it was meh city so I turned it off. |

Put in a couple of hours of Just Cause 3 last night. It certainly gives you loads of fun tools for blowing shit up but I found myself running out of explodey type ammo pretty quickly and taking out a generator with a machine gun just feels a bit crap. Also, I always seemed to end up running round a location like a twat searching for the last billboard or fuel tank or something which is annoying; does the game actually guide you towards these in some way and I'm just being a blind idiot? Either way, I suspect the repetitiveness of it all will kill it for me before I'm anywhere close to the end but I don't mind playing it while it's being fun given that it was 'free'. |

Yeah, even then they're sometimes tricky to find but you can usually work it out. Pro tip if you're running out of things that explode - steal a helicopter or tank. |

Getting a VR game is quite the surprise, pity it's some multiplayer bollocks. Also, the fact that the studio behind it is effectively dead by Sony's hand means it's a bit of a freebie from their point of view and probably not the start of a trend. Infamous has always seemed like the most generic of generic open world nonsense, though I'd be happy to hear good stuff from anyone who's actually played it instead of my witless mutterings? Hatoful Boyfriend looks cool and I'll definitely be giving it a shot. Though I worry that as a sort of satire of dating games it'll still include too much of the genre conventions to hook me. We Are Doomed I know nothing of: what's it's deal then? |

Oh, and Child of Light: played the demo ages ago, hated it. It wasn't really my type of game though and I was in the minority in not liking it so I reckon most people will think it a good addition. |

I liked it - but it had the benefit of being one of the first big open world games on the PS4 and has some really nice graphical effects for the powers (i remember the firework one being really good) , however this was in the first few months after the PS4's launch and I dont know how well it will have aged. Its also one of those games that once you've played through once (or until you get bored of it) thats it - you'll never go back to it Photo mode was also a 'new' thing for this and was highly praised at the time http://kotaku.com/infamous-second-sons- ... 1564469007 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014- ... od-entries https://www.giantbomb.com/forums/infamo ... r-1481263/ I also never really 'got' child of light so very little for me on there this month (although like you I'm interested in Hatoful (pigeon boyfriend sim!) - although to be fair i'd be interested in anything by Devolver https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2017/08 ... -of-light/ Quote: inFAMOUS: Second Son (PS4)
Child of Light (PS4) RIGS: Mechanised Combat League (PS4 bonus title – PS VR required) That’s You (PS4 bonus title) Truck Racer (PS3) Handball 2016 (PS3) We Are Doomed (PS Vita & PS4) Hatoful Boyfriend (PS4 & PS Vita) |

So, Hatoful Boyfriend's a hell of a thing then. At the same time, it's somehow much more and much less weird than I was expecting because for a lot of it you're just doing school stuff and talking to folk; except sometimes you remember that the 'folk' are all different types of pigeon. To get a single ending only really takes about 20 minutes but apparently ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! Also: whenever the dialogue would usually say "everybody" or "anybody" it instead says "everybirdie" and "anybirdie". Incredible. |
