God of War on PS4 Pro

It is the most beautiful graphics up to date!

And that does not say anything. There so many variables and I am not smart enough or have the knowledge.

They did wonders with the graphical engine of Total War. Packing so many units and details improving over the years, and who will never forget the far ahead of it's time Crysis 1 . They all excel at what they do best.

However when it comes to just standing still and moving the camera slowly to take in every detail that you can grab at any given moment wherever you are on the map, God of War wins everything that has ever been done in terms of gaming.

The snow, the details on the characters, face skin muscle movement, fluidity, facial animations! Everything is just simply to much. And it is by an incredible long shoot to anything on the market ever created.

If you watch it on youtube it's not the same. Youtube downscalles at a huge proportion, leaving nothing out of the real thing.


I had the at most privilege to test it. My friend has a PS4 (not the Pro edition). On my TV which is mediocre 1080,a Philips from 2016. It takes beats everything that it is every been done in gaming in terms of just visuals.
God of War is the epiphany of eyecandy

Most don't believe it, cuz i didn't. But when in real life you will play it, amazed you will be.
_____________
And that is just the visual. The game does not have farming, not a single drop of it. Comes with very deep emotional story. Right now i think it's one of the very best single player games ever created.

I played it for a few hours. The controller for was a no go, cuz i had no idea what I was doing with the camera. I just don't play with a controller, for the exception of racers and fighting brawler games, where there is no need to move the camera ever.
Right now PS4 is very cheap. Even the Pro edition, I recommend everyone to get one, even if you will only play 2 single games on it ever: God of War and the upcoming The Last of Us Part 2.

No one will ever understand God of War from youtube. I told my friend not to bring the PS4 over, cuz I already seen half of the gameplay and entire story. It looks god and thats it. NOPE!
You have to have it in front of your eyes, to believe it
____
P.S. In the perfect world of gaming. There will be Witcher story and characters with Dark Souls fighting, with God of War fluidity and movement + graphics, on top of Mass Effect dialog choice and voice acting.
If we will still be alive by then when this game will ever be created, give me a tag here on forum!

Yeah God of War looks and runs incredible on my PS4 Pro and 65" OLED. HDR gaming is really awesome. Can't wait to get it on PC. The fight with the Stranger blew me away. Like a Marvel movie. I have not completed the game yet tho. It's actually hard on hardest mode... xD

I saw some gameplay for the new doom, and it looks aggravating more than anything... points in this or that, weird power ups... are you really enjoying it?

I am. Best FPS game from 2016 easily.

The original Doom or 2016 version?

I think that when I say that "looks great", I don't mean a 25 year old game.

pbbbtttt I know you were talking about the new one, I was mainly poking at myself for not having considered looking at a game that came out 2 years ago lol. I'm too old to appreciate these newer games, I think. I want a quality storyline, with decent graphics, and an excellent story overcomes weaker graphics for me . Guess it's because my eyesight is going lol

 

[NTM2003]

The crew 2 it's ok but really the only game thats ok to play till the new games this fall. I'm looking forward to Forza horizon 4. Been playing mlb 18 way to much needed a brake from that. And yes I got all 3 PC Xbox one x and PS4 slim

 

[cucker tarlson]

For those who play the division,which I'm much into now. I'm asking for advice. I play pve and co-op missions and incursions, no pvp. I've got an assault rifle with 4 piece predator build with ninja bike bag, and I don't know what to complete it with. Options:
1. 1 piece sentry + 1 one piece striker for 20% stability + 30% accuracy (it's what I'm running ATM,I think good handling and low spread is key for mid-range fighting,which is most of pve and missions)

or...

2. 2 piece striker for 20% stability and 10% armor damage (armor damage is really making a difference with difficult oponents but I feel like I miss too many shots at mid-range/long range opponents when I don't have the accuracy boost)
3. 2 piece sentry for 30% accuracy and 10% headshot damage

That depends. If you use GZDoom, the original looks quite good using that engine. And Doom 3 looks very good on modern hardware. Thus why it seemed a valid question. No offense intended of course.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

More achievement hunting in Orcs Must Die 2 and otherwise playing a lot of Hitman. Hitman is good but I think I prefer the Contracts/Blood Money Hitman over this new Hitman formula where there's massive maps with a lot of optional objectives.

I remember a for Doom 3, Doom 1 & 2 with Doom 3 engine.

 

[lexluthermiester]

Doom 1 & 2 with Doom 3 engine.

OOOooo, would like to play that!

 

[AlwaysHope]

I..... can't..... stop..... playing...........FO4 with mods!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got FC4 ready to go...... but post apocalypse scenarios.....got me hooked......

 

[GreiverBlade]

clearing a bit my wishlist ... thanks steam summer sale!


(except Rage that is from my second steam account ... i have it in box )

i know what i will be playing next ... (probably Tale Of Berseria first ... that one is a granted )

Continuing on the HD remake for Secret Of Mana;

Just don't get it. All the negativity and bad reviews seems to me like little more than whining and complaining by over-privileged over-grown brats.

I'm having an absolute blast! The feel of the game is different, yet no less magical. The artwork is great, the game physics are very authentic and the music is beautiful! The SoundFX are well done, blending in some new and some original, though I'd swear they remastered some of those too as they sound much better than they did on the SNES. Some of the tracks(looking at you Matango) are very different from the OG soundtrack, and while don't have the original feel, are no less high quality.

Overall, I am simply delighted with this wonderful re-envisioning of Secret Of Mana, which on the SNES is my favorite game of all time, bar none! If you loved the original, this new take on things will be worth the price of admission.

starting Stellaris

Do this. I've yet to play the Apocalypse DLC/patch so I don't know how it is now.

 

[enxo218]

On borderlands the presequel lvl 56 with nisha trying to reach lvl cap focusing on fan the hammer and rifle woman trees only...also trying to get luck cannon to drop

 

[GreiverBlade]

the opening movie is gorgeous the following is just as so, too


the chara design and story setup is nice

graphically speaking it's still beautiful (even for a basic console port) somehow it get a "Fable" vibe



interface is simple and concise, setting can be maxed at 1620p (and 60fps cap instead of 30, huge bonus )


just a few hours in the game, many more reading the related manga (i did find that game due to the manga, altho i did play some "Tales Of" games on PSP mostly )
i easily see myself playing it more and finishing it (wich is not quite often the case with some of my latest acquisitions, specially in games that have a definite end )

 

[rtwjunkie]

Finished Prey, a year after I started it and had quit back then after 2 hours. I really enjoyed it and loved the unforeseen (but suspected) plot turn at the end. It also did a great job of allowing stealth for 59 hours, then forcing fast aggressive action to finish last couple hours.

Yesterday I started The Awesome Adventires of Captain Spirit (free), and the Mooncrash DLC for Prey, which is quite innovative, allowing and encouraging multiple play throughs.

That's what I was just thinking looking at the pics you posted.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Do this. I've yet to play the Apocalypse DLC/patch so I don't know how it is now.

Been playing lots and lots of Hitman. Silent Assassin, Suit-Only on several of the maps was brutal.

I'll prioritize Stellaris next...

I finished The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit (It's FREE, why haven't you played it yet?! ). We will see Chris, the 9 year old protagonist again in Life is Strange 2. The writers and developers are still not afraid to shy away from serious subject matter. Chris is an emotionally and physically abused, very lonely child, being raised by a father who has utterly lost his way since the death of his wife, Chris' mother.

In the face of this ridiculous set of circumstances, Chris has developed a vivid and remarkable imagination. In this world he is a superhero, loved and strong, courageous and a defender of the downtrodden. We see glimpses of his deep emptiness though, when things remind him of his dead mother, whether listening to her music, seeing her pictures, or when he is constantly disappointed by his father who doesn't have any ambition except to drink. It is impossible not to empathize deeply with Chris.

I streamed that few days ago. Even that it's free, it still felt too short, took under 2 hours to complete.


Now I'm playing once again different games from my Steam library, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey now. I've played this a few times, but I'll play again, since I have also Dreamfall Chapters on Steam, and I'd like to play this before starting that. Also I bought few Neptunia games from Steam summer sale, they're also going on right now.

 

[rtwjunkie]

Well, the reason is it is just to introduce us to Chris, who we will see in Life is Strange 2, and to help get people interested for the release this Autumn. I look on it as taking the role that demos used to do.

 

[DonaldS]

Playing Metal Gear Solid V for the 4th time. I am so obsessed with Kojima and his Gaming directions. I just can't get enough. He was genius in stealth games. No doubt splinter cell was also good. But Kojima was the best.

a little bit further in ToB

firework... once you get the "Soul Break" mode


prison break and freak ...

Mazhigigika Mirdin Do Din Nolurun Dou? seriously? well for sure i get why she call herself "in short" Magilou


you got it .... she's the comic relief character of the roster ...


it had to be a dragon ...



so, basically the MC is driven by revenge, hellbent on using any mean possible to get her brother murderer killed, i kinda like that kind of setup ... not the usual "hero MC who need to get rid of the bad guys to save the world" bs.

and after seeing people review with more than 50hrs in it telling "didn't even finish the main storyline" i have good hope for that one
why didn't i get that one sooner ... (after all it's a 2016 game well 2017 for PC master race version aka: 60fps baby! ... )
