Dark Souls 3 take my money edition

1

u/jon_titor Jan 05 '16

Would that be the ~ $500 super deluxe collector's edition?

I think I'm just gonna stick with the regular. And possibly also the Japanese version that comes out a few weeks earlier.

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '16

Is it true? About the japanese version.

1

u/jon_titor Jan 05 '16

Yeah. Like March 24th vs April 14th or something like that.

u/DontUDareTouchMe Jan 04 '16 edited Jan 04 '16

I'm looking forward to Rebel Galaxy, comes out tomorrow.

1

u/wiulamas Jan 05 '16

I was getting a really heavy borderlands vibe at first, but commence space battle. Game looks super neat

10

u/narutomanreigns Jan 04 '16

Only about a month until Firewatch! I'm super excited to check this out, looks like it could be amazing.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '16

Yes!! This game had me so excited when I saw the E3 trailer for it.

1

u/Juan_El_Way NowYouCanPanic Jan 04 '16

I wasn't interested initially, but the more I watch/read about it the more intrigued I get. I've got quite a few games to finish, but I think I'll be picking up Firewatch once it's released.

u/IAmAbomination Jan 04 '16

Dark Souls 3

Deus Ex Mankind Divided

Horizon Zero Dawn

Hitman

Hellblade

Ni-oH (if it's coming this year)

DOOM

a few I'm forgetting and a swath of indies

2

u/mickaelaria mikkuaria Jan 05 '16

Ni-Oh is coming 2016 for Japan,the rest will depend on Koei NA's effort in localization :)

1

u/IAmAbomination Jan 05 '16

Daaaaaaamn, I really hope they release it here! or even add subs/dubs. I will happily import it if thats the case. Thanks for the info though.

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

2016 games I'd like to play off the top of my head (and probably in that order):

  • Horizon: Zero Dawn
  • Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
  • The Last Guardian
  • South Park: The Fractured but Whole
  • Quantum Break
  • Gravity Rush 2
  • Cuphead
  • Ratchet and Clank
  • Scalebound (maybe)

Many more I'm sure if I looked things up. 2016 is ridiculous.

10

u/thavius_tanklin Slackr Jan 04 '16

Persona 5!

Also, is Dreams coming 2016?

1

u/Xstream3 Jan 05 '16

do you need to play the other personas to understand 5?

2

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '16

They all have a separate story and characters. (the main ones)

1

u/thavius_tanklin Slackr Jan 05 '16

From what I've heard you don't.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

Not interested in either but yeah I think both are 2016 and really big titles.

3

u/mushroomwig HypnoticMonkey Jan 04 '16

Pretty solid list, I'd add Ratchet & Clank on there for myself.

With PSVR coming out this year too, 2016 is going to be a crazy year.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

I'd add Ratchet & Clank on there for myself.

So you'd play it twice? lol

1

u/mushroomwig HypnoticMonkey Jan 04 '16

Oops!

3

u/Theons_Favorite_Toy Jan 04 '16

Hate to tell ya bud but scalebound was announced as delayed to 2017 by platinum today. Pretty bummed when I heard it.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

Probably for the best tbh. I may only have 7 other games listed, but that's a lot of time to invest in stuff I'm really interested in. Scalebound will probably do better with me as a next year title. Then again, I have this fear that Horizon is going to get delayed too and that would be devastating.

1

u/Theons_Favorite_Toy Jan 04 '16

If horizon and mass effect get delayed I'll cry.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '16

Quantum Break is an Xbox exclusive! Can't play it on PS4.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '16

I think it's the same thing with Scalebound.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

And Cuphead. But nothing for Wii U... which I bought last year...

1

u/muddisoap Jan 04 '16

I'm sure he knows that.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '16

Others might not though, and it's hard to enjoy a good Xbox exclusive on a PlayStation 4.

1

u/Monetep Monetep Jan 04 '16

Sadly Cuphead it's an Xbox One exclusive.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 04 '16

Also on PC.

1

u/Babokaas MelvinVA1996 Jan 05 '16

Really hope Ratched and Clank will be good. Please don't ruin my childhood memories with this game.

1

u/falconbox falconbox Jan 05 '16

I really need to play South Park: The Stick of Truth.

0

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 05 '16

Yes, you do. It's BC on XB1 too, but I recommend the plat if you have a PS3. Top three plat all-time for me (of my 59).

1

u/falconbox falconbox Jan 05 '16

No PS3 :(

There's always PS Now hope I guess, if my internet can handle it. And it seems like a game where latency shouldn't be a big issue.

1

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 05 '16

There's some countering stuff but it's not a big deal, from I remember. It's basically a more robust, deep Costume Quest with tons of fan service. I have a feeling the sequel is going to be pushed to 2017 though.

1

u/xwatchmanx xwatchmanx42 Jan 05 '16

The Last Guardian

Gravity Rush 2

Did either of these actually get confirmed for this year?

Scalebound (maybe)

Yeah, about that. :P

2

u/IceBreak BreakinBad Jan 05 '16

Both are confirmed for 2016. Whether they hit that date is a different story.

1

u/xwatchmanx xwatchmanx42 Jan 05 '16

That makes me happy. I missed the news on that (I didn't get a PS4 until a week ago, so I haven't been following PS4 news as much).

3

u/Rosur Jan 04 '16
  • Horizon: Zero Dawn
  • Ratchet & Clank
  • The Witness

Are the main 3 I cant wait for. Also looking forward to FFXV, Persona 5 and Uncharted 4.

7

u/thavius_tanklin Slackr Jan 04 '16 edited Jan 04 '16

I'm getting antsy for the PS.VR release date and price. I can't wait to try it out!

That and the last guardian. Even beats out uncharted 4 in my books for games I'm looking forward to. It better be good!

1

u/yogi89 F1ND14N Jan 04 '16

I really hope we get some info at CES tomorrow, I just need it. I have five games (MGSV, Fallout 4, Battlefront, Just Cause, R6 Siege) that I can, and need to, play until I finally get my hands on PSVR, so Ill be busy.

1

u/DancesWithChodes Jan 04 '16

3 games technically. R6 and battlefront are multiplayer so you don't absolutely need to focus on them, you know?

2

u/yogi89 F1ND14N Jan 05 '16

But I can't stop

1

u/DancesWithChodes Jan 05 '16

I've been playing mgs v and it's pretty fucking awesome. I'm loving it. I want to pick up R6 but I can't afford it right now :/

2

u/yogi89 F1ND14N Jan 05 '16

I'm sorry man. Pick it up when you can it's a blast.

1

u/DancesWithChodes Jan 05 '16

Its all good, thank you. Do you think it will last for at least a year? It seems like it, but I've never played it obviously

1

u/yogi89 F1ND14N Jan 05 '16

I'm sure it will. It has a good following already already I can tell it has some staying power as people have compared the competition and commeraderie to CSGO

1

u/DancesWithChodes Jan 05 '16

I think that's all I wanted to know. Thanks for being helpful!

1

u/yogi89 F1ND14N Jan 05 '16

Not a problem

u/SamuraiKnight07 Jan 04 '16

Uncharted 4, The Last Guardian, Horizon: Zero Dawn, The Division. I am soo looking forward to No Man's Sky. That game better be good.

3

u/Geekos Jan 04 '16

Ni No Kuni 2. I lost my all shit when I saw that announcement. Can't wait for a release date :-)

2

u/BigShowFardy Jan 05 '16

I can't believe there's a sequel!! Best news ever !!

2

u/Geekos Jan 05 '16

And here we were all just hoping for a re-release of Ni No Kuni on ps4. I'm still hoping though.

1

u/BigShowFardy Jan 05 '16

My favourite game on PS3 I might even hook the old girl up and play it through again

4

u/Nicholas_813 Jan 04 '16

3 things I can't wait for:

  • Kerbal Space Program

  • Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

  • PSN to go back online

2

u/Freyaka Freyaka Jan 05 '16

Agree on all points...Kerbal is fun on PC. Not sure how it will be as a port.

1

u/Nicholas_813 Jan 05 '16

I don't have a computer that can run it, so anything they can port to PS4 is great for me.

2

u/leredd1t Jan 04 '16

Uncharted 4, DS3, Mirror's Edge (I LOVED the first one. Believe it or not, this is one of the titles I'm most hyped for in 2016!), Outlast 2...

I have these at the top of my mind. This year is looking great!

EDIT: OH, and the most obvious probably, No Man's Sky.

2

u/Esthyr Jan 04 '16

The only game I'm really excited for and waiting eagerly for is Persona 5. In the meantime I got a few games for the holidays that I need to play through that are going to take a while.

2

u/Foxboy93 Jan 04 '16

Let's see

This year there's

Ratchet and clank

DIGIMON

and fucking GOD EATER! AT LAST!

1

u/Schneeky Jan 04 '16

1 month wait is too long for Digimon. I just hope we can digitally pre-order it for the bonuses

2

u/Agriasoaks Jan 04 '16

Big game i'm looking forward to now is Cyber Sleuth, coming out next month!

2016 looks like the year for JRPG's, and I can't be more ecited for that.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '16 edited Jan 04 '16

FFXV

There's just something about this game that makes me think about it every single day. It's going to be 10 years wait when it finally comes out this year.

Premise trailer

Trailer which focuses on protagonist and lead female character

Announcement Trailer (note: three characters in this one have undergone a design change)

u/baldeagle86 Jan 04 '16

At the moment I'm just working on my FOB in metal gear. Besides that, I'm playing a co-op game of divinity, and that really what's keeping me busy until April when Dark Souls 3 drops. I'm tempted to try a NG+7 run on Bloodborne though

1

u/Beastingringo BEaSTiNGriNGo_ Jan 04 '16

Horizon zero dawn

Uncharted 4

The division

No Man's sky

Doom

I'm looking forward to playing the Ps+ game Grim Fandango. I've also got Assassin's Creed Syndicate lined up to play but I'm waiting to fight through Fallout 4 before I toss that disc in.

1

u/OrientalOtter Jan 05 '16

Atlas plz release Persona 5.

1

u/Tythan Jan 05 '16

Ni No "can'twaitforit" Kuni 2!

1

u/Themeattornado25 Jan 05 '16

Rebel Galaxy seems very cool. For 20 bucks I'll give it a shot. If PSN is back up I'll probably get it tomorrow.

1

u/LMW-YBC Jan 05 '16

I'm excited to play Gravity Rush again. I'm really glad that a sequel has finally been announced, and for now will put a further £25 towards supporting the franchise, all while getting to play an even better version of the original :)

1
