I could Shareplay DriveClub with you if you want to try it out?

[Liam]

....how does that work? >_>

[probablyoliver]

Why would anyone have me on ignore? I'm lovely.

[Rich]

Who said that?

[9 to 5]

No Ollie said that, not Jim Neidhart, Rich.

Unfinished swan actually is pretty cool.

Games like The Unfinished Swan are why it annoys me when people moan about indie games supposedly being given too much attention by Sony.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Sony supporting indy titles and allowing smaller dreams to see daylight are why I actually like them as a company. Microsoft done a fair job too with games like super meat boy and limbo. Their paperwork on it has a lot more restrictions though, as is my understanding.

Some dreams don't need an 18 million dollar or more budget to be seen and appreciated

Legit some of my favourite games ever are 'indie' titles. Super Meat Boy, Limbo, Braid, Trials, Octodad, Splosion Man, Fez... all of them would easily beat out some of the bigger games on the market. And I've no doubt Hotline Miami, Unfinished Swan and Valiant Hearts will worm their way into that elite group too.

My Plus subscription ran out.

...although, I don't mind too much. The only game I've played online in the last few months is GTA, and I've still got Walking Dead Season 2 to play through. When Dying Light finally comes out, chances are I'll be playing through the single player before I bother with the online anyway.

What even is Dying Light? Will I like it?

[Avenged Probably]

I got Valiant Hearts this morning since its only 3.99 and had been recommended in here and its completely wonderful

It's you so... probably.

[probablyoliver]

They're all the same, buddy

[probablyoliver]

And yes! Valiant Hearts is wonderful! Me and Snowball are on the last chapter now and it's just ridiculous amounts of fun whilst also being totally sad and junk too.

It's a survival horror game by Techland, the guys behind Dead Island. I wasn't fond of that one, but I've followed Dying Light from the start, and like the idea behind it.

It's open world, first person. The idea is to travel during the day and gear up in the zombie infested world, in preparation for when the more dangerous zombies come out at night.

It's also got elements of free-running in it. The makers have basically said "if you can see it, you can climb it", so you can freely move between buildings and rooftops. There's upgrades to pretty much everything in there as well as customisable weapons.

Even if I have half the fun I'm expecting to have, I'm sure it'll be worth the money.

[probablyoliver]

I hate to prove ApSham right but that actually sounds like three whole butt loads of fun. I was considering picking up Saints Row but I might have a look at that instead.

The Swapper is some damn fine Metroid in mah Sony console. That's gonna be my go-to game post-Diablo.
