Gonna give this Isaac game a try. It's not like the whole internet isn't raving about it or anything sooo
It reached over 60,000 concurrent players on Steam some hours ago.

Get physical FFX & X-2 from Play-Asia to lighten the load by a few GB.

I just tried it for about 2 hours or so. Don't really see what the hype about it was..

It's got an extremely dedicated cult following that sprouted up around let's plays and streams, due to it's replayability and run appeals... kinda like Souls streams were always fun to watch.
So that cult love + Ed McMullen being personable icon engaged with the community + all the freshness with the new engine, new content and multiplatform releasing coupled together for hype.

I tried it and it's fun. Pretty messed up too, I think that's it's appeal. Back to Freedom Wars with my ass lol.

Yeah, the counter culture darkness of it made it palatable in a punk kind of way too... hence the cult status.

It feels a bit too twisted for my palate aha. I enjoy the gameplay, but the whole theme of it is just way too macabre for my liking.

Yeah it was fun for a bit but, unlike other Rogue-likes I've played (Spelunky, Rogue Legacy) this one felt like a chore to restart once I died.
Since the sessions are so long (died about 30~40 minutes in each time) after the 4th time, I just didn't want to play it anymore. Not a huge fan of the theme either.
Doesn't mean its a bad game though, I just didn't really enjoy it.

I too don't understand the hype surrounding Binding of Isaac. Gameplay feels completely inane and repetitive. Honestly played better flash games in similar veins. :\ To each their own, though. I'm happy other enjoy it.

Oh, Tales of Hearts R is next week already huh. Guess I should pre-order before I forget again.
I think I've been playing too much Freedom Wars though.. makes this game look really bad graphically in comparison.

Both Tales games on Vita look ugly. That was the prevailing opinion when they were unveiled. They look really cheap.

3 Step Program to curing addiction:
1) Stop Playing
2)
Realize it's a mediocre game
Never!
It's a port of a DS game, of course it's not going to look great.

Any idea if PS4 LEGO Marvel game is any good with that $8 PS+ member price?
I enjoyed to a certain degree the Indiana Jones one on the X360 (a while back when it was a holiday bundle freebie with the black X360 "phat" model), so if it's similar I'm thinking it might be worth picking up at that price.

4) Enjoy Hometown, too!

The DS version looks so much better :\ Hoping the fan translations start back up.
**That said, christ the main character's design is so awful.
If you're even remotely interested in Marvel or Lego, you should probably buy it. I don't think the PS4 version has ever been cheaper, retail or digital.
It's a remake.
Vita:
DS:
Oh wow that's even worse. They went from nice pixel art to bland 3D.
Suddenly, I am okay with not buying Tales of Hearts R.

That's a great case of good pixels vs shit 3D. Props to them for going pixels on DS instead of chibis as well.

Pre-ordered PDF 2nd.
2 weeks.
2 weeks.
They're all pretty terrible for that entry imo
this b.p. guy on psm needs to stop
he's released six different games that are all the same but with different graphics
could be worse
Bandai Namco reused some of the DS assets for a neat little pre-order game for ToHR on Vita: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHVeUfVROSo

I can't believe what I'm going to say but,
FINALLY THE PS STORE IS WORKING AND ORGANIZED PROPERLY. THANK YOU GOD HIRAI AND MASTER YOSHIDA.

Got the PS+ games and gotta say, really like what I played from them .
Started with BoI: Rebirth and it sure is something; the dark visuals and tone, the great music and Zelda-esc layout of the dungeons make it a very fun package so far. Cant wait to play more of the game .
Also put The Hungry Horde on my Vita, but I didn't try it yet; should be quite fun though.
Lastly, the Tearaway theme finally came to US PSN! I know it doesn't really matter, but it is so nice to have its amazing music play whenever I go through my games :'). The pictures in the background are great looking too ; MM did a great job making the theme .

At this point I'm so cynical about Tales of Hearts R that I fully expect quite a few posters in this thread to buy either optimistically or to support JRPGs on the system and then bitch about how bad it is for a few weeks. Absolutely no hope.

lol.
I would love to be wrong.

Don't you mean Kor? (　・´ｰ・｀
lol.
It's a remake.

DS:
It honestly doesn't look that bad, like a lower res Xillia. The battle system's supposed to be pretty good, with a focus on air combos, verticality, and Shing's teleporting. Really looking forward to it.

Same difference. ¯\_(ツDon't you mean Kor? (　・´ｰ・｀

Seeing the screens makes me feel a little bit good for selling my preorder receipt of Tales.
Hopefully the finances would be pretty green by December so I can hop towards PDf 2nd.

The Wolf Among Us on Vita runs much better than both Walking Dead games.
I'm amazed!

Ugh, I'm already tempted and I need my remaining cash for Life and Hometown.

So far, fantastic.
I only started playing it today (been waiting for the vita version forever, never got around to it on steam), but it's anything but repetitive to my mind. My various playthroughs (wins) have all been extremely variant -- I've found completely different powerups (there are supposedly hundreds?) that have completely changed my style of play not only from game to game but even during a single game.
For example, in one game I had super quick splash damage bullets, and in the last game I won I had bullets that started out massively powerful but weakened severely with distance.
Plus the maps are always different, the bosses are different, and more. Repetitive really doesn't apply for me. I mean, sure, it's always going to be a dual stick shooter, but I wouldn't expect otherwise.
It's a really, really solid game. Love it. But I'm born and raised on games like robotron and smash tv, so this is right up my alley. it's just "big tears, big blood" instead of "big money! big prizes!"
Will never ever leave my vita, that's for sure. I look forward to 100%ing it.
Yes Isaac is great.
So, excuse me, I thought of your sub went out you can't even play you ps+ games. But I read (forgot where think it was actually the psn store) that it only means you can't download and install.
So if I say leave it on my system I will still be able to play it?
