Last of Us is the only big one for me, but that was easy to solve. I borrowed a friends PS3 and played it something like 2 years later at the end of the PS3's life. Done. Will do the same with Last of Us 2 and PS4 in several years no doubt. These games that I tend to like on the console are all things that I can enjoy as a one and done type thing, so they rarely feel like a massive loss, but are still things I usually get round to several years late. I think in total so far, there is RDR, Last of Us 2, Bloodborne (maybe), Last Guardian (though the inside track seems to suggest it won't be that great, so maybe not)... that's it. MS has pretty much nothing I care about thus far. Nintendo is pretty much where a lot of games I like are (first party) but they have become very easy to miss out on after years of only using the platforms on and off.

That is why we want to be pc announcement :v

Why does he wear the mask!?
Thats why I want it to be
The Last of Us is by no means an "easy skip" to most people who enjoy video games.
Until Dawn is another one I wish could be preserved easily - maybe my favorite horror game of all time.

I kinda wish I had a PS4 right now to play Until Dawn for during Spookytober.

Uncharted 3 and Last of Us are on PSNow so you can play them on PC. Although IMO they aren't very good.
Jase is this what we were waiting for and believed when everybody else was laughing at us?
Given the teasing, I'd say it's a sequel as a remaster strikes me as something 2K/R* would simply just announce, without any sort of lead-up... though it's not necessarily a matter of one or the other. Announcing the two simultaneously, thereby giving fans something to play in the interim, would actually be very wise (assuming there is a remaster).

TLOU ain't bad, but I don't feel it's absolutely required playing. Though to be fair I don't think much of anything is. Loved Until Dawn though.
Remaster for Q1, Red Dead Next for Fall believe!!!

I'm mad that I got Gears 4 to play cooperative with my friend on his Xbox, but it requires him to log into my profile to play with me which them kicks me out.
Garbage.
Garbage.

Hoping for a RDR Remaster.
lol, immediately 3 threads on top
I can't imagine it'd be that hard to find an old 360 and used copy of RDR.

It's my Xbox though.

In a thread where people recommend garbage like The Evil Within I would say TLoU is definitely worth playing...
It's not going to cure cancer like PS fanboys would have you believe but it's a good game on PS4. On PS3.... yea I'd not recommend that.
The best way to do it is to do what you're doing OR if you don't have a friend to borrow games from, just get the console and the games at the end of the console life and wait for discounts.
Next year is going to be especially tricky, Yakuza Zero, Persona 5, Nioh and Nier:Automata that I want to get on PS4 (and PC). I don't have time to play them all but its so hard to choose between them.

Make your Xbox the home Xbox. You should be able to play with both copies. So rather odd it's telling you to sign in on Xbox to play it.
can't believe I agree with jaw on something

I have been getting into GTA V recently, and man, this game is pure perfection in terms of GTA gameplay.
When I am done with the games on my queue list, I might give a try again at MGS V, but not before, because I feel the opposite regarding that game, as if it were a betrayal to what I enjoyed in the first two games. I hate the paranormal stuff getting in the way straight away.

I don't even have time to play all the games I want on PC...
Still, it sucks not being able to play Japanese action shit like NiOh and Monster Hunter.

He signed into his profile to play with me, but it won't let him. When he tries my profile, it lets him play but kicks me off PC.
Pretty sure mine has been the home Xbox but idk for sure either, I only use it for Rock Band.

Something is off since it shouldn't be doing that
After those sneaky devils at Rockstar stretched out platform releases with GTAV and it still sold like gangbusters on each platform you could probably expect something like PS4/XO in Year X, Mobile version in Year X+1, NX in Year X+3, VR Updated version in Year X+4, PC in Year X+5 and so on, and so on!
This is only the beginning. We need to wait for an announcement of an announcement yet!

Maybe the next tweet will show part of a hat or something!
Pretty sure there's tons of games with over the top gunplay on Steam.

In fairness, I think TEW is a bad game too.

Probably some straight garbage fare.
Isn't that the font of Stranger Things?
Anyway I saw the list of the games somewhere, it's all garbage except Lifeless which is average.

Indeed it is. I don't know why I ever buy these things.

If it is anything like their previous packs, then it's probably not worthwhile.
It seems like they mainly fill these with stuff they can't get rid of otherwise.
Black Soma

Well I bought it and it contained Corporate Lifestyle Simulator, Huntsman, Lifeless and Three Dead Zed. Plus the 10% discount coupon. Of those I only owned Huntsman, so I guess it wasn't so bad for just 0.49€.

Yes, but that in turn was probably meant to be evocative of early Stephen King novels.

I got exactly the same stuff. I only owned Corporate Lifestyle Simulator out of it, so it was kind of worth it (probably get the 50 cents back in cards). I only wanted the 10% voucher anyway.

"I was informed by numerous devs that Steam Spy is roughly 5% off. It's time for another calibration. Brace for impact!"
Ah! Nice.
What's with the hyperbole?
