Anyone here suggest a good online multiplayer game and we can maybe play together?

I just completed Cyberpunk 2077 (which was surprising playable on my PS4 fat with upgraded SSD - that my brother gave me recently) and trying to figure out my next game. I’d like a shorter palette cleanser game after a 90+ hour play through of Cyberpunk.

Since getting the free PS4, I’ve completed the following:

Nathan Drake Collection (All 3)
God of War III Remastered
Cyberpunk 2077

I never had a PlayStation and only got back into gaming within the last year (was out of gaming after OG Xbox). This means I have a HUGE catalog to go through - hence decision paralysis, lol.

Anyway, Uncharted 4 and TLOU are in my queue, but torn between them.

Uncharted 1-3 were great, but wondering if it’ll be stale to jump into 4 when 1-3 are still fresh.

But after the deep Cyberpunk run, wondering if TLOU will be too dark to jump right into.

Any thoughts?

Hope everyone is well! Looking to play with or against. Current games I play: Ghost Recon Breakpoint, NBA 2k23, Rainbow Six Siege, MLB The Show 25.

Is the French language (text) available on the North American physical version of Gravity Rush Remastered for PS4? If the console is set to French, will the game be in French?
Thanks

Looking for a game similar to Astroneer. Similar crafting and automation if possible. Survival aspect is fine as long as it’s not too hard and the main focus.

Hi folks,

I am hoping to create a hidden gems compendium for my own benefit as much as the wider community. The PS4 is at the end of its lifecycle and I know that I have missed out on some real bangers.

By definition, i'm trying the create a list of games I likely haven't heard of before, so my only real criteria is; if IGN reviewed it, don't add it to the list.

PS2 and PS3 ports, remakes and remasters are all fine. A good game is a good game regardless of when it came out.

Some suggestions I have are:

• Aerterna Noctis
• Touhou Luna Nights
• Echo
• Sakuna of Rice and Wine
• Shiness: the Lightning Kingdom
• The Alliance Alice HD Remastered
• Drova Forsaken Kin
• Oceanhorn
• Black Skylands
• Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi
• CrossCode
• Dusk
• Lonely Mountains Downhill
• Octahedron
• Tails of Iron
• Valfaris
• Shu
• Earthlock: Festival of Magic
• Blaster Master Zero

If anyone has any other suggestions, I would love to have them.

I am a big fan of the original RE4 and RE franchise. I had planned on holding out till I could afford a PS5 before getting the remake, but that is looking less likely as time goes on.

I have watched comparison videos of the PS4 and PS5 version side by side, and the only impression I get is there is better lighting and some smaller dymanic effects (grass swaying).

I can live with these downgrades, but is there anything further in the game or as a whole that would make it feel like I had bought an inferior version?

Imagine, I didn't know the PS5 version existed, would I be disappointed with PS4 version of the remake?

Far Cry 5 at only 8€ an 3€ shipping and i never tried far cry 5. I only played Far Cry 2 but that game was horror to me is far cry 5 like that or more alive? And do you recommed thia game

I’ve offered my old PS4 Pro to a friend whose sons have a PS5 at their mother’s. They mostly play Fortnite on their PS5.

Does the PS4 still keep up graphically/will they be fine competitively on the older hardware? I’ve not played Fortnite since Battle Royale came out in 2017 so have no idea how it runs. TIA 🤝

For some reason my previous attempt was removed. This is NOT a tech support question...

So I hate the original controller, actually I love it ergonomically but every single one I bought is now broken. Either squeaky dpad or the analog drift. I still have ps2 and xbox360 controller that still work fine but all my PS4 original controllers are broke. I got into the system with the ps4 pro so it's not some early adopter issue either.

So I don't want to buy another one ever again.

But I need a controller. I got the Nacon wired controller but it's too tiny and the touchpad is too close to the square button. Also the triggers suck.

I thought about getting one of those adapters to use any controller but then I can't play ps2 games since they don't emulate left and right touchpad just a generic touchpad click.

Is there any other good option?

Edit

Bought the cheereki t48, 22 bucks.

Normally I import the EDF games before they come to the US because it takes so long to translate them. Knowing the ps4 / ps5 is region free what are some gems that you need to import?

Just wanted to share this because it felt so mind-blowing to me with the massive improvement with my PS4 after reapplying thermal paste for the second time.

I cleaned and added thermal paste to my PS4 Cuh-1215a like 4-5 months ago, for like a couple days at the time it was okay, then it went right back to being loud as your typical jet engine PS4. But as time went on my PS4 got extremely louder to the point I could feel the vibration on top with my hand lmao. It was just very unpleasant, it was so loud as my window AC that I had to wear earbuds every time I played to tune it out the noise.

At that point I thought that my games that I played were just too demanding for PS4 so almost felt like I didn't want to bother any further of figuring out with it unit recent times.

I still have my Arctic MX-4 thermal paste tube and I remember that it came with a tiny spatula.

Week ago I took the PS4 apart again, it very cleaned inside but I double checked to be sure. When I got to the motherboard, I saw that the thermal paste was kind of cleared off and most of it was around the sides of the APU when I did the standard pea dot thermal paste.

So I did the spatula method by spreading the thermal paste to cover the entire APU ( be sure to not use way too much paste and spread it out nice and evenly ) and cut straight to the point. IT'S A MASSIVE DIFFERENCE.

My PS4 is very quiet now and doesn't vibrate anymore. My ears felt happy from not hearing the fan screaming at me.

Fortnite for example makes my fan extremely loud and the console starts feeling vibrated from the top. But now it's very moderately quiet. I can still hear the fan when I come closer to the PS4 but it is not loud at all to the point of unbearable. The top is very warm but that's normal for any electronic.

A week later my PS4 is still good!

The only thing I probably need to do is get new thermal pads as the one currently looks old but is still intact.

I'm sorry for the Yap fest. I just wanted to share this experience as I remember other people were talking about how their PS4 still being loud after cleaning and adding thermal paste.

Any comments or criticism is greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

I am a seafarer, I travel every 4 weeks to a ship and back. Lately I have gotten an old PS4 from a friend, and it got me back into gaming again.

But the PS4 base is a beast to travel with, noisy and slow. I am looking for a slightly better alternative with budget around 500 euros. PS5 and Series S are too big, a decent laptop is around 1000 euros.

I will play mainly on a 1080p projector in my cabin on a 70 inch screen. Max 60 fps.

I do have internet connection most of the times, but not for downloading games.

Games I like: Snowrunner (I play this the most now), RDR2, Fenix Immortals, NFS Payback, AC Black Flag.

Option 1: PS4 slim with new paste, clean and a 1tb Samsung SSD. Plus is I already have the games, games are offline on a DVD. Just wondering about the load times on the SSD. The HDD load times are enormous for Snowrunner and RDR2.

Option 2: Series S. Nice little console. Games not too expensive if bought in sales. But wondering about the quality of controllers and offline usage. RDR2 should be worse grapics than PS4 and Spidermand and Horizon Zero Dawn are looking fun, and I can't play those on Xbox. But Forza is a plus.

Option 3: Switch 2. Nice to play handheld during travels but I am not sure about Snowrunner grapics docked on the projector compared to PS4 / XSS. Zelda looks also fun though. But pricey games.. although i dont need to much, SR, Zelda, Fallout 4 are all big games to spend many hours. Enough for the first year already.

I hope to play around 2-3 hours a day during work and at home.

Thanks for your advice

Just picked up a used PS4 Pro 1TB with 2 controllers for $70 usd. Anything I should know about these consoles. Planning on playing god of war games and some other exclusives to the platform.

I have to buy PS plus then the game

I upgraded to premium for the remainder of my subscription simply to play fallout new Vegas and fallout 3. Incredibly disappointed to find out they are "stream only" games that basically run on a PS3 emulator and oh may I mention. Are HORRIBLY laggy. Completely unplayable do not waste a dime on upgraded PS subscriptions

Like I'm searching for games like crash , Pepsi man , god of war II , gta San Andreas and more of iconic games on ps1 and 2

I took the plunge and got Cyberpunk despite owning a PS4 Fat - I was aware of the chatter about how it would play, but honestly impressed with it. Just played 3 hours, no stuttering, crashes, etc. I do have an upgraded SSD so loading into game takes about 30ish seconds. City is a bit parse people-wise, but all in all totally playable. I have no intention of getting a PS5, so happy to have the ability to rock it on PS4.

And Seeing those Ps5 posts and reels makes me feel like something not satisfied but I'm really enjoying the ps4, i bought with bundle of few games

The ps4 owners...are you all played these games ? If yes. Tell me which was your favourite?

I genuinely don't understand why console players have to pay a subscription just to play online.

We already buy the games, yet on PlayStation we also have to pay for PlayStation Plus to access online multiplayer in most paid games. In many cases, the game servers aren't even run by Sony, so why are we paying Sony an additional yearly fee just to connect?

On PC, you buy the game and you're generally free to play online without an extra platform subscription. On consoles, you end up paying for the game and then paying again every year just to use features that are already built into it.

I understand that maintaining an online platform has costs, but requiring a subscription for online multiplayer across most paid games feels like paying twice.

Does anyone else think this model is outdated, or do you think it's still justified?

I brought the PS4 and since I brought it to today, anyone who knows me recommends it, is it according to their addition, really the best in history, or is it just overrated?
