Some impression of the PlayStation 4

The first thing I did when I got the Playstation 4 earlier this morning was to take a few pictures and post on various sites I visit. I just wanted to show of my new sexy thing, after that I unpacked everything. Mmm! That new console smell. Hooked it up and it went smooth as hell, I am impressed at how fast everything went. It downloaded the update and installed it pretty fast, I liked that very much. The interface looks really good and it was so fast, it will take sometime to get used to it. But I think it will be really great. A friend of mine who skipped out completely on the PlayStation 3 was with me when I got my console and he was very impressed with the PS4. He enjoyed the controller much more than the though he would, so that was nice too hear. Even Hentai-Woody likes is!

As I posted a couple of days ago, the DualShock 4 is so damn good. I like the weight of the controller, the sticks are much tighter and gives more precision than those on the DualShock 3. And as I thought I love the feature that you can plug-in earphones/headsets and get all the games audio from the controller, perfect for those game sessions that takes place late at night and where I have to be quite in my apartment. Sure, this could have been fixed by buying a more expensive pair of headsets I presume, but that’s not something that was in my budget or something that I really want.

I only played Knack and Resogun, before I was to tired to even see. No, seriously I was starting to see fog around the eyes. I had to go to sleep! But I really enjoyed the short time I spent with Knack, going to give it a whirl later when I’ve gotten some more rest. I only slept for like 5hours and I feel I need some more. Resogun seemed more fun than I thought, I played long enough to clear a stage but it was pretty fun. Gotta try that more later. I don’t think I’ll be starting Assassin’s Creed 4 until I’ve finished Knack, but then again my friend Elden is coming over later today so who knows? We might take it for a spin, just to feel the ocean breeze.

So far I am really enjoy the PS4, I’m very pleased with what I’ve tried so far. Okay, Knack doesn’t have a very next-gen feel too it, but still. The only complaint so far is the lack of media capabilities, I hope that is something Sony fixes soon. I always used my PS3 to watch movies and TV-shows, I can still watch blu-rays on the PS4 but can’t watch anime shows that I’ve downloaded, since the PS4 can’t read the files. But it’s only the beginning of the PS4 life, I really hope they do add this later. And MP3-support for playing music ingame, it’s the feature I love and used most on the Xbox 360. So I really hope Sony will bring that one to the PS4 in a more complete manner than they did on the PS3.

My PlayStation 4 is here!!

Here is it!! My brand new PlayStation 4, my happiness is complete now! The wait is finally over! Now to unbox and connect the beast. See you all later!

DuckTales, woohoo!

I finally got around to play DuckTales Remastered today, I have wanted to play that game for sometime. Since I am a fan of the original game for the NES.
It’s still a good game, I really love the artstyle. It feels like its taken from an episode of the cartoon and I love that the game is voiced. But it makes me sad that they didn’t make a Swedish version of the game, would have loved to hear that. But perhaps it’s for the best. The original Swedish voice actor for Uncle Scrooge died a couple of years ago. =(
The the replacement isn’t all that great imo, but he isn’t terrible either. But he is nowhere near John Harryson’s wonderful voice, he was such a great Uncle Scrooge.

The music in the game is great! Love the remixes, I’m a fan of “The Moon” song. Even if others are tired of it, I still love it. But all the other music are just as good. A great game, that I really think you should try. Now I feel like watching the old show again.

Just thirteen more days left until PlayStation 4. I couldn’t make a post now without saying anything about that, now could I!? Well, I could. But I don’t want to. =)

Finally time for Disgaea D2!

After quite some waiting, I’ve finally got my hands on my review copy of Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness. Really been looking forward to sink my fangs into this and revisit the Netherworld. I’ve missed Laharl, Etna and Flonne, I think they’ve been the best main cast so far in the Disgaea games. Even if Valvatores in Disgaea 4 is a really close runners up.

Laharl, Etna and Flonne are back!!

Ahh, hopefully I get more Prinnies that talk bad about Etna’s lacking parts and she then proceed to torture them in ways you can only torture a demon penguin. Well I sure hope the humor and funny parts are on par with the other games, you’ll find my reviews at always at PSSverige. I’ll post here and on twitter when my review is up. For now, something to eat. Then I’m taking a trip to the Netherworld again!

Time for Kingdom Hearts in HD!

It’s finally time to revisit the world that is Kingdom Hearts, perhaps I more correctly should say worlds. Either way… It is time to dive into Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX! I have been looking forward to play the Final Mix version of Kingdom Hearts 1 for a while, so I’m pretty happy I can do that now. This is also an ultimate test for me, to see if Kingdom Hearts is still as enjoyable today as it was ten years ago. So I’ll probably get back to this later. =)

And I have also bought another game, I got it dirty cheap. Tales of Rebirth for PlayStation 2. A shame it never got an official English translation. But I want the game in my collection, hopefully I can sniff out the other Japan only Tales of games and get then in my collection. Sooner or later at least and I’ll probably only get the PlayStation 2 games.

Tales of Xillia is great!

So far I’m in love with Tales of Xillia! It’s everything I had hoped for and right now I don’t have any complaints. So as I thought, for me its a good candidate for Game Of The Year for me. Too be honest I’ve spent around 33hours in the game and most of them I’ve been doing sidequests and stuff. And playing around with attachments. As you can see in the picture here beside I have given Milla glasses and elf ears, they really suit her.

I also love it that you can get different hair styles in the game, in past Tales of games characters would only change their hair if they got a new costume to wear. Well not anymore! Sure if you get (buy) new costumes you get a new hair styles, but you can change back to the characters regular hair. So you can mix and match! I bought Millas swimsuit to get her hair in a ponytail and because it was a swimsuit. Shut up!
This is something I really like and appreciate in games, I can spend hours with stuff like this to try and mix and match. As soon as I can afford I’ll get more of the DLC stuff. Damn you Namco!
A bit pissed that I’ll probably never get Cress and Stahn DLC, for those who don’t know it’s the main characters of the first two Tales of games.

The combat is great and I do like the Link-system. Music is pretty great too, I just about like everything about the game. If I must complain about something, the only thing right now I can think of is the lack of a world map. Sure the way its made in Tales of Xillia is good, you walk cross “corridors” so to speak. But after a while you can teleport to the places you want to go, just like in Tales of Graces f. I’m already looking forward to Tales of Xillia 2 next year and of course
Tales of Symphonia Chronicles. And I do really hope that in new entries in the Tales of series, will continue to use and expand upon Tales of Xillia’s attachment’s because as I said I sure do like that!

Tales of Xillia acquired!

I finally have Tales of Xillia, happy days!! The long wait is finally over! I am so damn happy right now! Woo! Gotta get the snacks ready and then I’m off to Rieze Maxia and save the world!

Take care everyone! See you all soon again! :D
