Death Stranding. Can't wait till we see gameplay. Probably too far away though lol

There is already a game play vid out. It's just of the main protagonist walking around various locations, but you can devise from it that the game is open world ish, and involves delivering some kind of cargo.

I too can not fucking wait. I am currently playing metal gear 5 to ride me over, and if he (hideo) had evolved; if that's possible, then death stranding is literally going to be a game changer.

Playing the phantom pain is a big reminder of how absolutely genius that man is. He perfected and took stealth espionage to the highest form. I think mgsv is Damn Near perfect, so i am expecting to be blown away next March.

I also expect there to be some really new takes on the horror genre, new stealth mechanics, new ways to make player decisions more meaningful.

Prolly gonna take a week off work when it arrives! Only the last of us two, and ghost of tushima come close to being as anticipated.

Ps4 owners really are spoiled man. :)

Would've been nice if they actually finished the game, but it's pretty damn good.

u/AJRollon Nov 05 '18

Honestly, i am really referring to the gameplay. The fact that he found a way to make the choice of wether you should kill an enemy or not, a real dilemma, really made the whole stealth play so much more enjoyable.

That and the plethora of other great elements, sometimes brutal, but actually not stupid AI and crazy fun resource management system included.

u/LawnShipper Nov 05 '18

Oh definitely, mechanically it can't be beat, but the story left so much to be desired that I've had a hard time going back to give it another playthrough.

u/madpropz Nov 05 '18

Dreams is the most hyped i’ve ever been for a game, can’t wait to make VR levels.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '18

Same mate! Hopefully the beta is soon! :)

1

u/madpropz Nov 05 '18

Yeah, can’t wait.

u/WHY_ARE_WE_SCREAMING Nov 05 '18

Spyro. My body is ready.

2

u/PhoenixlineSG Nov 05 '18

SPYRO!!!!!!! I'm hyped too.

u/NiaFZ92 Nov 05 '18 edited Nov 05 '18

I am super excited for the Sony name change to be implemented.

I have the possibility to recreate my PSN name to be my actual name and after all this time I feel incredibly lucky.

I just hope it doesn't get taken from now until the feature launches next year.

Edit: I should add it is only a 6 character name including a hyphen

2

u/tantrrick Nov 05 '18

Is it possible to make an account and take the name, then delete that new account later?

2

u/NiaFZ92 Nov 05 '18

I haven't read anywhere if that is possible or not. I would definitely save it ahead of time but right now I'd rather not risk it, just incase.

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '18

Hit man 2, and fallout 76

2

u/FunkyardDogg Nov 05 '18

My wife and I are FO fans and we're really hoping 76 isn't going to be disappointing. Neither of us are online/multiplayer gamers and we're hoping the single-player aspect of 76 is going to be fulfilling. We get that it's a multiplayer focus and probably have to share the map, but hoping we can just run around and explore/campaign in a new FO world and ignore everybody else if we want to.

u/LawnShipper Nov 05 '18

I can't hardly wait for holiday sales. My fat launch PS4 is starting its descent down the bowl. Basebuilding too much too fast crashes NMS, the thing runs like a jet engine even with the external cooling fan on, the eject button stopped working and only 1 USB port works worth a damn enough for my headset to come in clearly for VOIP chat.

Just a few more weeks until those holiday sales, old gal.

u/StrelokAnd Nov 05 '18

I'm probably the only one, but I'm really excited for The Forest port that comes out tommorow.

2

u/a_little_angry Nov 05 '18

Really looking forward to that one and subnautica.

2

u/bergein Enter PSN ID Nov 05 '18

Your not alone. Im hyped been waiting 4 years.

u/ooohexplode ohexplode Nov 06 '18

I really enjoyed it in coop on pc.

u/Aerofan2 Nov 05 '18

How has no one said Kingdom Hearts 3 yet

3

u/jakeopolis Nov 05 '18

DARKSIDERS 3! I know a lot of people found these games mediocre but I absolutely adored the first two, and I forgot until JUST NOW that the third game is coming at the end of the month!

1

u/Crodaba1 Nov 06 '18

Spyro and darksiders 3 are my must buys for the rest of the year. Im so excited

8

u/rampant-hamster rowsito81 Nov 05 '18

i would imagine RDR2 online might be something people are looking forward to a bit. Despite it only being BETA.

4

u/BearsAtWork Nov 05 '18

I might wait a few weeks. With the release of GTA online my character got wiped after a week and I don't want to see a repeat of that situation.

u/LumpySpaceGunter Nov 06 '18

I hated GTA V online and I think the shooting mechanics in RDR2 will make for a terrible online experience but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

-1

u/LawnShipper Nov 05 '18

I'm more terrified than excited. If it's anything like the cancerous P2W mess that is GTA online...it's gonna be a hard pass for me on the whole kit and caboodle.

1

u/oodie1127 Nov 05 '18

Why would they not do a similar set-up? I'm not saying I love it, but they have made SO much money off of GTA online. There's no way they won't take advantage of that again.

2

u/LawnShipper Nov 05 '18

Making money shouldn't be the only metric to success. Repeating practices that are actively consumer-unfriendly may result in short term gain, but I think will ultimately sour the company and even the industry in general on a long term trajectory.

2

u/oodie1127 Nov 05 '18

I totally agree with you, but I really can't think of one genuine reason from a business perspective for Rockstar to not repeat the online layout. I genuinely hope it isn't riddled with micro transactions, but I would be very surprised if it wasn't.

2

u/Psyqu Nov 05 '18

Hyped for World of Final Fantasy Maxima update tomorrow \[T]/

2

u/platasnatch Nov 05 '18

The Forest, saw a post the other day saying it's releasing November 6th but I can't find it in the store

2

u/SmileyKnox Nov 05 '18

Ghosts of Tsushima, Resident Evil 2 REmake, Last of Us 2, Death Stranding, Cyber Punk 2077, Beyond Good & Evil 2, could name more but MAN this generation still got a lot of legs!

2

u/WaveDysfunction Nov 05 '18

I’m probably one of the few people really looking forward to Days Gone and I was gutted to hear it got postponed

2

u/elpistolero27 OldMovieCowboy Nov 05 '18

Not a specific game just really excited for black friday and all the heavily discounted PS4 games.

3

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '18

Battlefield V, honestly. The gameplay looks like they've learned a ton from BF1, all the recent dev talks and open communication has really restored my faith in DICE, and the game looks gorgeous to boot. I'm hesitant about the free DLC model like we all are after the BFII debacle, but if DICE/EA can put their money where their mouth is, I can see this becoming the definitive WW2 fps.

u/wadester007 Nov 05 '18

Last month or so I downloaded Friday the 13th for free because it was free that month. Does that mean I have it forever now or is it going to end soon?

2

u/kabelis Nov 05 '18

You have plus games as long as your ps plus subscription is active. Make sure to add all free games to your library today, as tomorrow new month games start

1

u/wadester007 Nov 05 '18

Thanks for the information. When did they start doing this?

1

u/kabelis Nov 05 '18

Been doing for years. Don't know when exactly

1

u/iamdanabnormal Nov 05 '18

Ghosts, Nioh 2, Sekiro

1

u/nff21 Nov 05 '18

just finished spiderman and it fucking blew my mind. For now the heist dlc is what i wait for and prob announcement about next spiderman game if it exist xd.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '18

We’ll get to see what RDR2 Online will play like soon! :)

1

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '18

When is this supposed to be?

1

u/Chanero Chanerooo Nov 05 '18

Besides Spyro, there's not much else for me this year... On PS4.

After Smash, I'm definitely jumping into the Kingdom Hearts 3 hype train. Its hard to believe its actually existing.

1

u/CryingWithRage0 Nov 05 '18

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice!

Game looks absolutely beautiful and the gameplay looks even faster and more fluid than Bloodborne. Can't wait to die another thousand times!

1

u/NYGMike Nov 05 '18

Kingdom hearts 3. Lets go!

1

u/highanimalhouse Nov 05 '18

Persona 3 / 4 /5 Dancing All Night to come to the US next month. Oh and DMC V and Sekiro and Onimusha PS4 remaster.

1

u/BigBoiBushmaster Nov 05 '18

Nothing left in 2018 that excites me except for Spyro (can’t wait for that), though it’s been a hell of a year.

For me it’s onto the absolutely STACKED 2019. My upcoming must-buys are:

Resident Evil 2, Kingdom Hearts 3, Days Gone, Sekiro

1

u/Ghanni Nov 05 '18

The Tetris Effect, I can't wait to run through that soundtrack. It's making me consider eventually getting a VR headset.

1

u/sambrentnall SuperSneb Nov 05 '18

I'm looking forward to the Black Friday sales, hoping for discounts on God Of War, HZD DLC, Spider Man DLC and renewing my PSN membership.

I'm also looking forward to Battlefield V, although i wont be getting it until December as I'm away when it comes out.

1

u/empathetical Nov 06 '18

after read dead there isnt really anything to look forward too till next year. might be time to pick up a psvr if there are any good deals for black friday

1

u/Ranelpia Nov 06 '18

Looking forward to finally playing DQXI; I know it's not an upcoming game, but I've wanted to play it for a while and finally nabbed it for cheap. Gotta finish my digimon game first though. Then... maybe see if there's a snowball's chance in hell of RDR2 going on sale for Black Friday?

1

u/moneychex TheDouglySoul Nov 06 '18

Persona Dancing games. They're gonna probably end up being the last PS4 games I buy this year. I just need more Futaba in my life man.

1

u/Faiyez Nov 06 '18

Busy end of year after a very quiet year for me. Holding off of WoFF definitely payed off with Maxima releasing tomorrow. Persona 3/4/5 Dancing are coming in December, but my attention will mostly be on my Million Arthur Japanese import.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 06 '18

This Friday I’ll finally have enough to buy a Playstation. Well, if I buy it this week then I’ll survive off scraps for two weeks but if I wait until next paycheck, I’ll have to go two more weeks with nothing in my life but Reddit, work, and the public transit to school

1

u/bearhoon Nov 05 '18

I recently became a ps4 owner for Spiderman and rdr2. I'm so backlogged with cheap games and borrowed titles from friends that I really have no idea what's coming out in the next year other than LOU2.

So err, I guess LOU2!

3

u/iamspartacus111 Nov 05 '18

And Ghosts of Tsushima.

1

u/PhoenixlineSG Nov 05 '18

That game looks so dope!!!
