Nvm, apparently the solution was to bitch on GAF ;p Took who knows how many tries but it's finally downloading via the website. So if any of you encounter an issue doing so, keep trying. Now to get through a day of work.... Soon Yooka Laylee, soon!

Dang, thought the Pro version would run at 60 fps. Oh well, may double dip for the Steam version later down the line.
What ??
Well fuck, I've got too much work tomorrow and the new Overwatch event starts so I'll be playing with friends. I had some time to play today -___-
Infinite sadness.

When will Steam pre-load be available?

Sucks there isn't anything for Pro users. It'll be tough going back to upscale 1080p30 after binging Kingdom Hearts in 4k60.

Entered my code (UK) into the redemption on the playstation store WEBSITE. It is unlocked but i'm not able to put it in my download queue. Is anyone else form the UK able to download?
Edit: It's come up! I'll give it a try tonight.

Just played a bit of the first world, game seems fun so far. No frame rate issues at all really. (Stock PS4)
First Rextro game wasn't that bad either, you start to get the feel by the end of your first go. I almost beat his record on my second try. Not sure why reviews were ragging on it a bit? Unless there are more levels for that game later or something.

True, but you can't actually play as it without the code.
This for me. I had no idea that it would be 30fps vs 60 fps and that Playtonic only worked on the PC while Team 17 did the ports. I emailed the backerkit email about changing to a steam code instead. I'll update when I hear back.

Wasn't the conclusion of that whole Jim and Laura fiasco that the console performance was a lot worse than the PC one?
I'm going to chalk it up to Unity not being great or a very short development time, which led to a lack of optimization.
Such a long wait when you're hyped as f...
Anyone know when we can expect a Digital Foundry comparison?
Oh yeah, I remember now. I had forgotten that you couldn't play as the random one.

I'm playing the toybox demo right now. Man, this is so amazing. The music, the style, the sound effects, the controls. Everything is awesome.
edit: Okay, not everything is amazing. The rolling controls are terrible.

Still, a dick joke in a childrens' game? Really?

Well, none of the N64 era Rare platformers were childrens' games either.

Have you ever played Banjo Kazooie or Tooie?
The latter has a machine with two options displayed on it in big letters "BLOW" and "SUCK"
Thank you!

Unity engine does support PS4 Pro.
Firewatch (game made in Unity engine) got a Pro patch like other Unity games too like Forma.8, Mother Russia Bleeds etc ....

Who does it hurt? It's not like he'd called Dick the Snake (well, I think this would still be OK, seeing as Dick is an actual name)
). Also, I have a feeling this game is not exactly targeted at kids. In fact, for players who have no prior experience with collectathons, it will probably be overwhelming.How many adult jokes were hidden in children's tv shows/media etc?
This practice is nothing new. It's meant as a *wink wink* towards the parents.

I have been playing since last week's Thursday. I really enjoy my time, but you can feel/see a big drop of quality at world 3 which is a shame since world 1 and 2 are good.

This game just referenced Croc. They really know their audience.
I've just expanded the first world and I must say that I am loving the game so far. I've barely encountered frame drops and the controls fell really good. The only thing I don;t like so far is the Rextro game in the first world. It makes the top down racing mini game in JFG look good and the time limit for the second pagie is a bit too strict.

Put around 10 hours into this, and i'm loving it so far. The camera can be a real pain at times, and the mini games suck, but the regular gameplay is so much fun. Can't wait to get back to it tonight.

Was hoping I could've preloaded this on Steam last night (really really slow internet at times), but no such luck.
Still pretty psyched. Reviews be damned, this looks to be exactly what I wanted and what I backed it for.

How many kids will even pick up on it? This is like one of those Disney subtle lewd references.
Are you really that upset about something so minor? Did you watch any cartoons as a kid? I suggest you back and take another look at them.
Played through the first world on PS4 Pro and I am enjoying it. Really does elicit memories of the Kazooie, including the bullshit related to time trial stuff.
Camera hasn't been so bad, though the first world is expansive enough without many environmental hangups, so its hard to gauge yet. It does get hung up on anything in its way though, but again no big deal in the first couple hours.
The first race is a bit of a pain as you are required to collect butterflies en route to the goal to keep your gauge maxed which requires touching them with pixel perfection. Can be demystifying when you jump at one only to narrowly miss it as they don't auto collect even if slightly off.
I also got frustrated at the high score for the first arcade game(RC Pro Am clone). Decided to come back as I am not in the mood to deal at the moment.
Otherwise, not bad so far.

Re-watching old stuff as an adult is amazing. So much crude humor and you never even realize it as a kid.
I love it.

Had a go at the Arcade game, didn't know what i was meant to do. But ended up winning, then i beat the score.
Overall, it's not a bad game at all. I'm glad i backed this, it's great to be able to play something that brings back the memories of playing Banjo Kazooie from my childhood.

After world one I still don't really enjoy the game ... and I don't know why

I whole-heartedly expected to not enjoy this game at all after the reviews but man, played about an hours worth and love it so far.
My main gripe is the controls of the roll move. For what they ask of you to use that for, it's too slippery. Needs a tweak, but I doubt it'll get one. My guess is they want it to feel unwieldy to up the challenge. Lame. Hopefully I can get used to it.

I'm looking forward to seeing what it's like, too. IIRC it's not in the game at launch, though.

Took some time to show up in my library, I'm playing now.
If you were stoked before, why not wait to see what GAF impressions are? The consensus here is often different than from reviewers and perhaps you'd still find a lot to like in the game.

So Banjo Kazooie is a bad game now because nostalgia?
Noooo! That's when the Overwatch update is out
Yeah that sucks
I've been wanting to play Y-L for two years (or more like, fifteen years), but the OW drug is so strong...
