Trying to make things sound easier, is Afterbirth an update to the game where you have to beat Rebirth first? Or...does Afterbirth add features that are incorporated into the game, such as new bosses and Greed mode? I've read Wikipedia pages and walkthroughs but still confused here...
I don't know the answer for sure as I've only played some of it before they added Afterbirth, but i think it's just more stuff to the game. I don't think there's an order to it.
Bought Broforce, Guacamelee & Hotline Miami 2. Started to play Broforce, it's really fun. A really cool Action platformer with a lot of stuff going on. I wanted to buy more but missed the sale because I'm working at night at the moment. Finished Abzu & it was a really cool underwater experience! Looking forward to buy more indie games with a physical copy release.
I'd like to try The Show, but instead I bought Salt & Sanctuary using my 20% off coupon. Probably not going to start it up until I finish Horizon, though.
There's a new PSN Humble Bundle. Some pretty cool games on the list. I went in for $15.

I picked it up on Opening Day, and finally got to play it yesterday. I've only played the tutorial game and the first game of a Season mode. I'm so impressed by the options, ease of controls, and production value. This is my first The Show on a home console, and it's amazing. Personally, I'll probably never touch online multiplayer and Diamond Dynasty. If I wanted a F2P card-collecting baseball game, I'd probably play for free on my phone instead of a $70 PS4 game, but I've heard there's been some server issues for those trying to play that mode. I'm excited to try RTTS and Retro. I mean, there's just so much to this game. I don't know if I'll even have enough time to play OOTP this year!
I nearly bought Destroy All Humans! on a few occasions. Glad I waited. More PSN Humble Bundles please.
I picked up Flinthook just before the launch 10% discount ended. It's really fun. 2D platformer rogue-like, of the Rogue Legacy sort in that there are permanent upgrades. Also has daily and weekly challenges. Though one issue is that the leaderboards don't update right away, which is OK for the regular game, but for the daily challenge it's an issue because you don't get to see where you are on the leaderboard right after the round ends. Hopefully they can improve that. Anyway, the game is great. I definitely recommend it.
I picked up and have been enjoying Dragon Quest Heroes II. I'm not a huge fighting game fan, but I absolutely love Dragon Quest. Thankfully, this one is quite fun even with all that button mashing. It has me really excited for Dragon Quest XI.
Sony went with "gofobo" for tickets for their E3 Experience (I went last year and it was fun and we all got $10 PSN cash). Gofobo exploded. Anyone have luck getting tickets?
SUPERBEAT XONiC PS4 is out today in the US. If you like rhythm games I highly recommend it. It's my favorite rhythm game in quite a while. I'm going to get the PS4 version, but going to wait for a price drop since I already have it on Vita. The PS4 version does come with a bunch of the Vita DLC, though.
So glad I picked up the Wipeout Mega Collection! For us older folks, it's a good idea to turn on the pilot assist. You even get a trophy for it Superbeat Xonic and Amplitude are both rhythm games but the gameplay is completely different. Amplitude is a PS2 remake where you are concentrating on switching lanes while keeping a beat. Superbeat Xonic has been better received in general (when it was on the Vita) and the controls on the PS4 are even better. If you watch videos on YouTube, you'll see a huge difference in gameplay and music between the two. (Not the greatest explaining the gameplay here).
Just brought the PS4 VR headset, camera and move controllers. What's the best VR experience on PS4 so far?
Crash Bandicoot got an 8.5 on IGN. Wondering what others think about Micro Machines World Series releasing tomorrow...
I'm digging Crash, but the spin move is touchy! I'm dying a lot because of that. Pissing me off! #I'll probably get better at it after a bit! I'm thinking about picking up Wipeout Omega, as it looks awesome! Is it tough? Wondering about the game play and such. Should I bother? Whaduya think?
Wipeout runs very smoothly, it feels like there are so many tracks because there are three games incorporated into one. The controls are extremely tight and well done, there is a pilot assist function throughout the game so that you aren't bumping into walls. You even get a trophy for using pilot assist and it doesn't effect you achieving over trophies. I've been bouncing back and forth with this and Absolute Drift. On a random note the most underrated game IMHO is Dangerous Golf. Tons of fun!
Bigrand1, hopefully you didn't pick up Micro Machines. Decided to wait for reviews and well...let's just say I saved $30. Get Wipeout Omega!##
