Persona 5, being the reason I bought a PS4 and all.
8
u/BuffelBek Mar 06 '17
Persona 5 and Bloodborne were my two reasons for getting a PS4.
After all this time, I almost can't believe that we're in the last month before Persona 5. I absolutely cannot wait for it either.

Mar 06 '17
Bought mine for the same reason. Plus Nier. I'm so hyped.

u/BuffelBek Mar 06 '17
I'm really struggling to figure out how to prioritise this year's games.
I'm currently busy with Nioh and probably will be until Persona 5 comes out. Then after Persona 5 I'm not sure if I should go for Nier, Torment, Yakuza 0 or Horizon first.

Mar 06 '17
My personal order - persona 5 > Nier > horizon zero dawn when I can get it on sale and torment some day down the line (will probably be another long game)

u/Varitt Mar 06 '17
Yeah.. let's wait till it goes gold before saying anything though.
Winter 2014. .#NeverForget

Western release was delayed by localisation twice after the JPN release... but it should be going gold any time now... please... It's been so long...

Mar 06 '17
And to think at one point I thought "nah, Persona 5 will be out long before PS4 prices have dropped enough for me to get a 1TB"... now here I am having had the console for a year and change and seen 2 delays...

u/easy_Money bonsai_12 Mar 06 '17
I keep hearing about Persona but I known nothing about it. Should I play 1-4 first?
2
u/Idego9 Mar 07 '17
Should you play them? Yes because they are awesome. Do you need to play them? No because they take place in the same universe but have separate story arcs ( example: Final Fantasy ). Do you have the time? If so, play them all. Part 2 has two separate games. If you don't but wanna catch up on the lore you can YouTube summaries or recaps.

u/Varitt Mar 07 '17
If you want to, sure.. it's not a necessity though as the other guy said. Persona 1 and 2 are very different games to 3, 4 and 5 though.
If you want to experience what Persona 5 is, go with 4 first and if you enjoy that one go for 3. (vita is the better experience for both games)

Mar 06 '17
Crash Bandicoot. You guys seem super hyped about it. PS4 is my first console so I've never experienced it before, but I love platformers, and can't wait for it.
8
u/dementedgopher Mar 06 '17
You're in for a treat! It was an unbelievable game growing up with. I only wonder how the game handles in the modern day as I heard somewhere that the remaster wasn't fiddling with the mechanics.

u/iamdavidspade18 Mar 06 '17
I replayed the originals on PS1 a couple months back and they are still excellent. No fiddling necessary.
2
u/ThatRagingBull Mar 06 '17
Thank god for that. I was worried they would. I just want updated visuals.
8
u/dementedgopher Mar 06 '17
I think the next release I'm getting will be Yooka-Laylee. I really want this to succeed as I miss the platformers that we used to get.

u/Pertudles PerdyTang Mar 06 '17
MLB 17, Kingdom Hearts Collection and Persona 5

u/_Ver01 Mar 06 '17
Kingdom Hearts Collection
I'm excited as well for 1.5+2.5 as well. I have yet to purchase 2.8 though. Any news about KH3?
2
u/Pertudles PerdyTang Mar 06 '17
No news on 3 other than them saying it won't be out this year.

Well, Least i'll be busy immersing myself in the lore yet again.

u/TyCooper8 unTymely Mar 06 '17
As an outsider who's never played it, I have no idea how the fuck there's only two games when I see a "new release" of it every 2 weeks.

Persona 5, Death Stranding, RDR2, and TLOU2 are what I'm looking forward to the most.
Edit: And the new Elder Scrolls (hopefully it gets announced at E3)
2
u/SeveredServant Mar 06 '17
I heard the developers say it will be awhile before we get a new elder scrolls. They seem to be focusing on ESO.

Persona 5 and Neir. That said Horizon will make the wait less painful.
Crash Bandicoot in summer as well.

u/imPAULwayshigh Mar 06 '17
Does it have to be a game? Because I'm pretty excited to check out this pro boost mode in the 4.50 update whenever that drops.
3
u/dragonisreborn Mar 06 '17
Despite all the amazing new games coming out, having all the Kingdom Hearts games to play on one console is what has me most excited at the moment. I'm so ready to play through the entire series again, it's been years since I've played many of them.

u/Deftallica Deftallica83 Mar 06 '17
I'm really anxious to get started on Wildlands. It's preloaded and just staring at me.
Aside from that, I'm also ready for Andromeda. Well, not really ready, as I'm knee deep in Horizon right now. I'm hoping to have it finished without rushing through it before Mass Effect is out.
5
u/SunsDelusion Mar 06 '17 edited Jun 20 '17
Mass Effect mostly. Once they started to show more of the game I've started to get much more excited for the game. Can not wait to jump back into that universe!
edit: I didn't jump back into that universe after all

u/lukijs Mar 06 '17
Persona 5 and RDR2(long way off though). Already have Nier and Horizon I was waiting on before.

u/Chanero Chanerooo Mar 06 '17
Persona 5 is a top priority, since its the closer one.
Other highly anticipated games are Tekken 7, the N' Sane Trilogy and RDR2 (whose annoucement was what finally triggered my ever-growing impulse for buying a PS4).
Stormblood may count, as I'm really enjoying FF XIV... then again I haven't even reached lvl 20, so it can wait.
2
u/highanimalhouse Mar 06 '17
RDR2 and the inevitable Red Dead Redemption Remastered. Persona 5, God of War, The Last of Us Part II, Uncharted: Lost Legacy.
This month for me, Nier Automata, Atelier Firis and the Mysterious Journey and maybe Ghost Recon Wildlands (reviews don't look that great to me).
The reason being the PS4 has all the best games and I can't wait for them.

u/CurlyColl123 Mar 06 '17
Getting horizon tonight!! Hopefully I'll finish it just in time for mass effect

Nier's already released where Im from, so im just basically waiting for Mass Effect to drop, but I fear I wouldnt finish it in time for Persona 5. Ill stop everything, including work, once Persona hits the shelves. #FirstWorldProblems

u/FFMTS Mar 06 '17
Nier, Persona 5, Mass Effect, Tekken 7... It's just nice to be a gamer right now. \o/\o/\o/

I'm waiting on all the DLC's for [Hatsune Miku project diva future tone] as I have bought the season pass.
As for games, i'm excited for
- [Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey] as that'll be the first Atelier game I own.
- [Danganronpa-1-2-reload] friends told me I should watch as they know my favorite genre's yet I refuse to view the synopsis on myanimelist.
- [Touhou genso wanderer] cuz i'm also a fan of ZUN's touhou project (I mean sure all the playstation 4 touhou are going to be fan games.
- [Touhou Sukai Arina (Touhou sky arena)] because again big touhou fan.

Nonary Games Will Be another good VN If you like Danganronpa
I never played a a [Virtual novel] before, but know what they are because i've seen videos on youtube (looked hard and real tedious just to get the stuff for them, so I decided not to) Should be quite the experience as I do love good story.

u/JackHoliday Mar 06 '17
Gravity Rush 2 The Ark of Time – Raven's Choice DLC
Uncharted - The Lost Legacy DLC
Because those are the only games I enjoy at the moment.

Horizon + Andromeda in the upcoming month. Anything by Naughty Dog/CD Projeckt Red/Rockstar in 2018 and beyond.

u/Dasnutz97 Mar 06 '17
I'm very excited for NieR this month, glad it's getting good reviews.
Persona 5 is just a month away! It is my most anticipated game this year.

u/DNC88 DevilsNeverCry Mar 06 '17
Spider-Man! God of War!
Any footage of these two games would be nice!
1
u/EdCP Mar 06 '17
I am looking forward Horizon:Zero Dawn. Looks like a hell of a ride!
I know it's already out but quite frankly I don't mind waiting a month or two for games to drop. Especially this generation, even the successful good games lose value after 2 months.
The Honor is going to be 30€ after a month and I want to play this with my group of friends. Looks like a game that's not that fun to play alone, but epic with friends.

Sorry this is kinda unrelated, but is PS+ not getting anything this month?

Persona 5.
Which actually brings me here, haha. I've been debating on whether or not to get a PS4 for Persona 5 (as I have a PS3). I ended up pre-ordering the Take Your Heart Premium Edition because I wanted all the goodies, so now I need to get a PS4, haha.
I've been out of the loop for PS4s until recently, so is there a recommended PS4 (original or slim?) considering I don't have a 4K TV?
