The console & gaming thread

[robertbrian23]

That is true. I always download the PS+ games (2 every month). regardless if I would play it now or in the near future.

I've replaced my PS4 HD 2 months back, upgraded to 1GB. as I have big downloads from several games like Shadow of Mordor, Bloodbourne, etc.

500 GB isn't enough unless you delete your previous games. I think around 15 - 20 games would make your 500 gb full. + those PS+ games and apps (netflix, amazon prime video, hbo, etc)

[t.d.]

Do you have to install the games on the xbox one?

Still getting great value out of my 360. Ordered bioshock preowned off game which should be here soon. Very much looking forward to that.

[Martin]

I'm on PS4 and have FIFA. So if Brent or Ste want a game let me know.

[Martin]

Dante do you reckon I'd need to play Ground Zeroes before Phantom Pain?

[Dante]

Not need, but it's worth doing so. It costs next to nothing these days as well.

For all of the knowledge on what's going on, have you played MGS 3 and Peace Walker?

[Martin]

Yeah I've completed 1, 2, 3 and 4. I have Peace Walker but for some reason, never really played it.

My brother got a PS4 recently, getting him another controller. Bought it in Game for £55 then realised I could have just got it from John Lewis for £45 with a 2 year guarantee so will get that instead or is there somewhere else I should be getting it from? Is ShopTo reliable, just seen they have it for £35?

[Ole]

£37.99 on Amazon.

Take back the Game one and get it from John Lewis. It's more than shop to and Amazon, but you have the 2 year warranty.

Shop to are charlatans I'd avoid.

[Martin]

I was looking forward to the FF7 remake. Apparently now it's being released in several games ala MGS V.

Will not be purchasing.

Thanks, that's what I'll do. He actually got his ps4 from shop to on Black Friday, kept telling him to get it from game but he saw the deal and went for it.
Still trying to get my head around ps4 and all the extra features, I was a big ps2 player but haven't really touched gaming since then.
Got him the new wrestling game too, though that's partly for me, are the controls the same as they were back in the day? Was pretty decent at that. Gonna try to learn Fifa over the next few months too.

[Martin]

That's basically the same as me, 2005-2012 I had no console, last one was the GameCube. Going from PS1/2 where you're just used to putting the disc in and it goes to the game, to having basically an entire desktop is confusing but you get used to it quick.

All the football controls are basically the same with the exception of skill moves so I imagine it'd be the same with wrestling games.

The PS4 controller is mad, blew my head off when getting chased by police on GTA and it flashes red and blue, and when you get a phone call and it comes out through the controller lel.

[Dante]

The WWE controls are similar, but not the same. They gave it an overhaul a couple of years ago, and have tinkered with it since, so You'll probably find yourself pressing the wrong thing for a bit, then it will all click into place.

The only thing that's still hard to do for me is getting out of pins and submissions, it's no longer bash the buttons as fast as you can.

And that right there, summarises how I play video games. Whether FIFA, WWE or just about anything really.

Just bought FIFA 16 and I've felt that the speed of the game became slow. Since I haven't played FIFA in several months, playing Manchester United side v Man City on Pro difficulty. I've finished the game with 0 shots.
My team was totally overrun by City with their passing, maybe I've felt a little bit rusty, I normally play with wingers and get a cross or cut inside. The gameplay was a bit of a change from FIFA 15.

It didn't get slow, just adjusted to reality!

[Martin]

Serves you right. Its hardly a secret PES is the better game for gameplay.

lol at buying Fifa ffs

[Dante]

PES has been shit for years, and has zero visibility these days, so actually it's a fairly well kept secret.

[Martin]

All football games are shit but PES is the best one. The current one is being called the best football game ever.

I don't mind Fifa this year anyway. Oh and they're remaking MGS1, its called Shadow Moses.

[marcus leong]

I'm playing Dream league soccer on my phone. I like it.

[Dante]

Shadow Moses is a fan remake. I'd be astonished if it's not taken down.

[robertbrian23]

I have a demo of PES, I'll try to buy a copy once the price is a bit lower.

[Dante]

Are you PlayStation or Xbox?

[robertbrian23]

Playstation.

[Dante]

Playstation.

Do you know about this?
