The pause menu is alright. Font is weird (like on old or fantranslated games), but readable. Some menus use this same font too:



Dialog is a spacing mess:



And then there's these tiny things (that's the crow guy's skill tree):



And since we're here: skill trees seems to work like Borderlands (need x points on the first row to unlock the second one etc), and there's stat point distribuition on level up (like Diablo 1-2 and a bunch of other things).

From what I played the demo is worth a look, but I still have to beat it.

That's awful, gonna wait for a sale.

TOTP: Buy Senran Kagura Bon Appetit.

Just got Freedom Wars in mail today. Never really played a game like this before. Any tips I should know before jumping in?

Rush through the first 2 chapters to get quick travel. You don't really need to speak with any random npcs. Don't be afraid to use guns. Use your thorn (grappling hook) to move faster.

Should I be worried if my 12 days old vita slim pulled two episodes of not reading game cards? the first time there was no reaction and the second time the card indicator on the notification bar is grey. It's supposed to be blue with the game's logo on it. Both cases are fixed with ejecting the card and putting it in again.

This is great. I think both cases happened after switching cards after long sleep times.

"Work in new tab" makes me think that your problem is with your browser.

Meant open lol.

Also it is not just one browser, even ff and ie.

And not even the same machine nor network.

Maybe it is the country I live in. Cause browsing imgur site is slow like being on dial up.

Bloody Good God the difference between PS3 and PS4's version of Dragon Age Inquisition is massive.

Anyways, recommend me good games to buy that are playable in the PS4 guys.

I saw you playing DAI on PS3 and laughed

Yeah well....:( But now I am playing it the proper way :)

I am using a new account in PS4, WeepingPickles. No Friends at all at the moment, hahaha. Add me, GAF.

Anyways, a question, suppose I want to use both my account, LaughingBanana (reg1) and WeepingPickles (reg3) together in one PS4, is it doable? Will the game purchased using my LaughingBanana account can be played by my WeepingPickles account and the other way around as well?

yes, it works.
you can simply attach both accounts to your PS4 and play your PS4 games (earn trophies, etc) with one of them

as long as one of these accounts has PS+, you get multiplayer access playing on both.

(it's similar to the PS3 multiple account setup)

I've had this once. Reset my console, cleaned the game card's contacts and I haven't had it since.

Okay so the "remaster" of KH 385/2 days is just a gigantic series of cutscenes. That aren't 1080p, judging by the aliasing. Watching it while playing other video games.

Isn't it crazy that 10 years ago Square Enix remade Chain of Memories with no hesistation on PS2, but the DS duo are evidently too much work?

Got Freedom Wars.

Found it at another Best Buy, the CS rep cancelled my delayed online order and let me purchase the one I found for the same price.

Now to wait for the money I paid for originally to go back to my gift card.

Sounds like an easy and fast 100% from what I've read, too.

Yup. I bought it on sale a few months back, and beat it first try... the only pain in the neck trophies were a few 'do x 100 times' type trophies, that i finished in my second game.

It was a fun, easy ride, but I would have preferred it to be harder.

How can you not like Space Invaders?

I mean, Galaga is even better, but still!

QFT.

I can't remember if it ever ends or if I quit, but iirc it does have an official end, you just play through all the worlds 1 more time. been awhile, I might have just called it quits at that point.
 
So I was checking my download list on Vita this morning, searching for Crash Bandicoot because they've decided to remove it from the Australian PS Store, when... what. James Pond?

B3-NiszCYAItcFN.jpg:large


Fuckin' James Pond on PSOne? Apparently I purchased it in October, which I most certainly didn't (same with Babel and 2D Rotating Octopus). But yeah, downloaded it onto the Vita and played it for a bit.

Then later found out the game's not even supposed to be compatible.

So weird.

FFVII keeps disappearing from the italian store every time it's discounted. What the actual fuck.

Yeah, they've taken it off the Australian store too. =\

I told you guys Titan Attacks sucked. Now feel for me because I bought it at launch.

James Pond 2, Babel and Rotating Octopus were free PS+ games.

Ok I accidentally removed a game card during sleep mode while the game is still running that I thought I exited it, upon reinserting the card it did it not respond again.

I rebuilt the database and as of now it has no issues. The window for an exchange is in two days so I don't know if I should do it.

Jetpack Joyride Deluxe imports your savegame when you boot it up, not using the save game item in the Live Area.
Just bested my run in the first try in the Deluxe edition. That SAM mech is awesome. At first I thought they removed the great backtouch controls but it was just difficult to find the option. Menus felt a little bit sluggish though but in the end, it is the Jetpack Joyride I love.

Sucks for everyone who didn't had the free version to pay now but as I got it for free, the switch was good.

So my Inquisition copy is Reg3, but I still play online with my Reg1 LaughingBanana PSplus enabled account, correct? So let's just say Bioware release DLCs for it. I know that Reg1 DLC will only work with Reg1 game, so I can just log out my LaughingBanana account, log in using my WeepingPickles reg3 account, download the reg3 dlc for my reg3 Inquisition from reg3 PSN, install it, log out from WeepingPickles and logging back in as LaughingBanana, and I can continue playing my reg3 Inquisition-with-DLC no problem? Even earning trophies for it under the reg1 LaughingBanana name?

I had no idea what names should I pick, might as well use my tag, hahaha.

that is correct! :D

Huhhhhhhh! And here I am thinking I need to buy another year of PSPlus for my Reg3 account! Guess I'll just stick on using LaughingBanana as my primary playing account then and only use WeepingPickles for downloading reg3 dlcs/patches for my reg3 games then! Nice!

...eh, but the fact that the console is activated under the WeepingPickles name wouldn't cause any problem...? Sorry for all the questions, just got my PS4 so I am still kind of reaching in the dark here for some stuff, hahaha.
 
Wow...seems like I'm the only person who bought Monopoly Deal.

Couldn't find a match or a single game at all. Either that or Ubi borked the servers. It's only $5 but still, I better be able to play this. Love this card game.

if I remember correctly, each PSN account can set ONE PS4 as the Primary PS4.
So you can just activate your PS4 on both Banana and Pickles.

since Banana is gonna be your primary account due to PS+, set it to autologin in the settings
 
Well i picked up Persona 4 Golden a few weeks ago and now i understand all this Waifu talking.

Jesus this game is the perfect vita game.

Im like halfway trough it so no spoilers please.

Thanks for all the info man :)

Well, this means I gotta replay DA:I YET AGAIN from the beginning, hahaha, since I played them last night under WeepingPickles. Ah well, no matter.

Thanks again.

Damn I thought today is the released date of EDF2 (the original date was at November).
Guess I must wait one more week :(

There was a F2P version for quite a while. Apparently, EU gamers who played that version get the Deluxe one for free.

Only had a test run in the new version. Looking through the catalog, it seems like they added a lot of stuff. There are daily challenges now and there was a cinematic for one of the items I got for free.

Paying for a game that is free on mobile sucks but looking at it isolated, I enjoyed the game a lot so the price is ok.

I quit on wave 220 yesterday. The game didn't really mix anything up even on the second playthrough. It's still fine at that point since you're trying to max out your tank, and it is a bit more challenging due to the increased game speed, but by and large, you'll probaby feel done with it around wave 160.
