TPS, man.  I actually prefer 3rd person, because I can see my character doing stuff.  :D
That's also part of why I went with a PS4.  I'm not a big FPS fan, but I do like the runny-jumpy-swingy-happy games that PlayStation likes to put out every now and then, as well as the other stuff like inFamous and super cool stuff like this.

Also, AC Unity is doing... this?  Link.  Looks interesting, at least.

...you play on a PS4? SACRILEGE.

Well, not right now.  There's no games for it, except the new inFamous.  Which, by the way, is the only reason I got a twitter account.  They added in a photography mode, and I've spent several dozen hours just snapping pictures, it's so much fun.  How many games let you do stuff like this, or this, or this, or... or this!?  ...  I like that game.

If you're talking about making ghostly energy-stuff and setting things on fire, there's a large variety of options. Including setting things on fire IRL.

Well, they said they were going to make a WW2 game, possibly with a female lead. After seeing them reject female player-characters in Unity because it was "too hard to pull through" I'm not really surprised by their backtracking on a female lead in their WW2 game too. I bet Tumblr is having a collective fit over this at the moment.

Not to mention the rest of the Interblag.

FF 15 looks very, very pretty.  Ridiculous, as always, but pretty.

I got to play a bit of Shin Megami Tensei IV, and it's the first time I ever played anything like it... I kept dying. And then I didn't have enough Macca, so I was taken back to the title screen.

I still have yet to see about the story, since I only played 8 hours of it. I really liked the voice acting.
Half-crumbled I guess: :southkorea:
Main language: :usa:

I just found out that Little Big Planet 3, FarCry 4, and GTA 5 for PS4 all come out on the 18th, and AC Unity comes out on the 14th.
I was doing such a good job of being frugal, too...

I thought you going to link to the actual theme song, in all its remastered glory. :P

Nope, just a song about being lazy and doing nothing.
There's just one problem: the 3ds's charger cable is to short to reach from my bed.

Yep.  It's the only thing on earth that could make me buy games I'll never play.

New update from my game.
Any chance we can get a beta?
I'd love to give it a go.
