Some must have PS4 games?

[Underi]

I'm looking to get some use for my PS4 so I'd like to know some good games. I'd preferably buy PS4 exclusive and/or games that aren't 50 euros a piece. I'm fine with games that necessarily aren't exclusives but chances are I already have it on PC or am not interested. Get some suggestions coming guys!

Red Dead Redemption 2

The Last of Us 2

Horizon Zero Dawn

Final Fantasy XV

As someone who bought GT Sport at launch, I was mildly miffed it was steeply discounted during Black Friday sales. Maybe it isn't selling as great as they hope, but I find it a reasonable continuation if you like the previous games of the series.

 

Don't have many games on my PS4 so can't really recommend further...

PC version isn't far off, and if you're waited this long, might as well wait a bit more for that.

Oh trust me I am waiting anxiously for it to put my 1080 Ti to work, but he did ask PS4 and well that is a title that always comes to my mind if you want good games there ^^

I was so up on the hype of that game, got it a launch, played it for about 2 hours and haven't touched it since. I'm not a fan of the combat system where you, like, actually have to do stuff now? If I ever have spare time I'll give it another go, but FFXIV is my timesink still. On that note, it is also available for PS4 but I'd still prefer it on PC.

Well I'm getting a new PC in January, would do sooner, but the availability for i5 8400 is pretty poor. I've always been fascinated by the Final Fantasy series and I've always wanted to play it but last time I did it was subscription based, hella confusing and most of the games were from early 2010's so I didn't bother.

Whilst I also really like the former combat systems I also love the current one, it is like The Witcher 3 in the future also I loved the movie Sony made to promote it, I love the worlds story and since I'm a great story-driven single player games whore I know I'll love it... the only major upset I have is that you can't drive the car freely... I honestly thought that was bulls

FFXI and FFXIV are MMORPGs and subscription based. FFXIV does have unlimited time free trial if you wanted to look again, but you need to pay to go past a certain level.

 

FFXV like other main line story games don't require regular subscription. With XV they have gone the DLC route for more stuff above base game.

If I had known I didn't like the combat system that much (it seemed ok in the demo) I wouldn't have bought it all. I just watch gameplay videos on youtube to get the story. I did that with Nier Automata - tried the demo on PS4, couldn't cope with the combat system, and just got the story from youtube. I did buy the soundtrack so in a way they got some cash off me. Possibly the best game soundtrack ever.

Maybe a weird suggestion, but the last game I completed in PS4 was Life is Stange. Was a free PSN game. Really enjoyed playing it.

Another vote on Horizon Zero Dawn.

Okami HD is coming out this month.

Ratchet and Clank

Shadow of the Colossus comes out early next year.

 

The few I can think of at the moment.

 

[Mira Yurizaki]

Lots of people recommend Persona 5. I'm only holding off because I know it's a 100+ hour time sink.

 

There's also the Uncharted series, which the PS4 has the PS3 games on a single collection.

[Techicolors]

Horizon Zero Dawn. if you liked Witcher 3 or Zelda BotW you'll definitely like this game. The expansion The Frozen Wilds is good too, it's included in the Complete Edition

 

Uncharted series. the PS4 collection of the first three are available, then Uncharted 4. I recommend starting at the first if you're new to Uncharted. consider The Lost Legacy if you liked playing Uncharted

 

Persona 5. Warning! Massive time sink 

 

Last of Us. Good time to play it now that Part II is announced 

 

Bloodborne. if you liked Dark Souls and/or difficult games. grab the DLC too if you can

 

Final fantasy XV. don't need to play the other games

 

inFamous Second Son. 

 

Kingdom Hearts PS4 collections. not for everyone, but good prep for KH3 

[AshleyAshes]

Per-Freakin-Sona 5.

 

[ono]

I don't know your preferences so I'll just pick my not on PC favs, which are RPGs, so if that ain't your thing then I'm not the right person to give suggestions for you haha

 

- Persona 5. Maybe a hard sell if you're not into its anime style or turn-based combat. A lot of reading.

 

- Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. A remaster of a PS2 game. One of my fav FFs. Inspired by western RPGs. Granted you can get RPGs of similar combat in PC games like Dragon Age that arguably better, but I still think this one is fun nevertheless.

[SteveGrabowski0]

1. Blooborne

2. Persona 5

3. Horizon Zero Dawn

4. The Last of Us Remastered

5. Yakuza 0

6. Odin Sphere Leifthrasir (though you should be able to play the PS3 version of this game well on the RPCS3 emulator with your i5-4460 + GTX 970)

How are you not going to recommend Persona 5 though when you got Mona in your avatar?

There's also the Uncharted series, which the PS4 has the PS3 games on a single collection.

It's $30 today on the PS Store (last day of the sale). You shouldn't hold off, it's incredible.

[LaLiLuLeLo]

Uncharted ([1-2-3]=Nathan Drake collection, 4 & There's Lost Legacy too)

Last of Us

Horizon Zero Dawn

Nioh (But now on PC, so if you can get it there)

Persona 5

Bloodborne

Crash Bandicoot

Driveclub (Getting it (Season pass + Bikes Expansion) on sale is really worth the price, lots of content)

Infamous (+ Second Light)

 

A few upcoming ones I'm really looking forward to:

 

Death Stranding (trailers)

God Of War

Spiderman

Last of Us 2

Days Gone

Ghost of Tsushima (Interesting premise, no gameplay yet though)

If you're interested in the remasters of the first three Uncharted games, the collection is $8 on the Playstation Store. But the sale ends at 8AM PST sharp tomorrow, so act fast if you want the games. It usually sells for $20 and it's a bargain at that price too.

 

 

Then Uncharted 4 can be bought used from Gamestop for $10.

You have to look for good deals, sometimes in the Store.

 

What I'd recommend:
Horizon Zero Dawn

Persona 5

Uncharted - Nathan Drake Collection
Uncharted 4 + Lost Legacy

Final Fantasy XII the Zodiac Age

Ratchet + Clank

God of War III Remastered

 

Maybe Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness, Kingdom Hearts, The Order 1886.

 

Non Exclusive:
Tales Of Berseria

Tales of Zestiria

Nier Automata

Star Ocean new Hope

Not really. And only if it is on sale. 
I bought it for 50€ and it was very disapointing.

 

FF XII is way way better than that...

Good list, except he'll probably be better off playing Witcher 3 and NieR Automata on PC since he has a pretty strong system. NieR Automata for sure since it doesn't have any PS4 Pro optimizations AFAIK other than running at 1080p on the Pro vs 900p on the base PS4. Witcher 3 you'd be talking a tradeoff between 60 fps on PC vs higher resolution on PS4 Pro.

Witcher 3??

 

And the ones in the 'Non Exclusives' category are all available on Steam. 

Bug I didn't mention Witcher 3. I don't see that as a console game at all.

Nier Automata is a pretty garbage PC Port.

I had to run it with my old Tahiti card, Crossfire doesn't work. 

And many people say something about performance problems (though they seem to have GTX 970 so I'd not rate it too highly)...

Yeah, but some things about the Pods an the touchpad that the PC version doesn't have.

Though I've not tried it with the PS4 controller yet.

NieR Automata's PC port is indeed terrible, but I played through the entire game on my GTX 970 and could maintain a locked 60 fps with high settings at 1080p using FAR and setting the global illumination quality to medium through FAR. That setting has an enormous impact on performance without changing the visuals very much. But for the quality of graphics any kind of decently optimized port should have run 80-100 fps on ultra on a 970 considering I can do that on much better looking games like GTA V or Dying Light on my 970.

 

I also played through the entire game on PS4 (though Slim, and to a platinum tropy) and never noticed anything with the PS4 touchpad other than touching the right side was the same as the options button and the left side was the same as touching the share button.
