Why do you own a PS4?
>>
I get to play fun games
>>
Because I wanted to play games on it when I got it that weren't on PC*. These days I mostly just use it for Yakuza, Persona, Rock Band 4 and the Digimon games.

*At the time or currently
>>
Crash Bandicoot machine.
>>
Uncharted and gow

Yeah yeah fuck you too
>>
To play Bloodborne, FF14, Persona 5
>>
>>383717259
I enjoy the exclusives it has. Also, Dragon Quest XI is coming out soon.
>>
Bloodborne
Uncharted
WipEout
Crash Bandicoot
Horizon
Gravity Rush
Until Dawn
Journey
inFamous
Nioh
>>
Because its a few hundred dollars and when you reach a certain point in your life a few hundred bucks is nothing. Unless you're struggling in life in which case you should probably keep the videogame playing a to a minimum so you can try and find a way out of your situation.
>>
To play tekken 7 with my friends.

Totally worth it.
>>
Because I got it (and an XBone) at launch for free for being a GameStop store manager. I quit less than a year after they launched. Still makes me smile.
>>
FFXV
>>
>>383717259
Only system with HDR games so I enjoy looking at them
Gow3 remaster + bloodborne

I will sell it when I'm done going through that shit
>>
I bought it because I wanted it.

Next!
>>
My dad needed a blue-ray player, I told him the ps4 is a really good one.
He got one, I'm not joking
>>
>>383717259
literally just to play Bloodborne

I got one for $200 Canada bucks when Target went out of business
>>
Because I hate PC gaymers and I don't like Xbox.
>>
Crash N. Sane Trilogy
yeah pretty much just that
>>
I wanted to watch Talladega Nights on bluray
>>
Because I have a job and can actually afford shit that I like.
>>
>>383717259
I wanted a console to compliment my PC and it was between the PS4 or the Xbone. I eventually got an Xbone and wiiu and I feel I made the right choice initially
>>
I don't. Still see no reason to own one.
When RDR2 releases I'm gonna buy one because fuck waiting another year for that game.
>>
fightin'
>>
>>383717259
I got one for Bloodborne when it came out

My gf also stole a PS4 from her ex when she kicked him out.

We literally have 2 systems and 1 game between them.
>>
>>383718226
Why an Xbone though? Sony and Nintendo actually have games that you can't play on PC
>>
>>383718413
I worked for MS on an Xbox-related analytics team for about a year so I got it for free. I paid money for the wiiu.
>>
>>383717259
I don't. Not buying it just for Bloodborne and Nioh.
>>
>>383717259
Because I made a Warframe account on it before I got a good PC and now I can't switch without starting over
>>
>>383718665
Unless you have a 4k HDR tv already just get the OG.
>>
>>383717259
Not yet, but I want one. I really like Japanese games, so this console suits my interests.
But I still don't know if I should pick the OG or the Pro.
>>
Because I want to play superior Japanese games and am too mature for nintendo
>>
>>383718813
The Pro and the XboneX are memes. Just get a slim.
>>
>>383718793
Welp thanks. Sorry I deleted that, I just forgot to attach the picture I had.
I do not have a 4k TV, but who knows, as technology becomes more afforable maybe I will...
>>
>>383718950
Trade up later then if you get a 4K TV (or PSVR). It really isn't worth it alone.
>>
>>383718901
>Slim
Digimon crashes and corrupts save data at Chapter 12 for some blasted reason on Slim models, so that's a no-go for me.
>>
>>383718813
Pro if you have a 4k TV

for everyone else shit is worthless
>>
>>383719095
Nokia is a lewd girl! Lewd!
>>
>>383717259
Because it came down to which console had the more interesting exclusives and I don't much care for current Halo and Gears games.
>>
I'll get one if COD:WW2 is good so I can play online with my friends. However, I can't shake the feeling Playstation will announce it's next generation console within this year or the next making the PS4 obselete.
>>
I own a Pro. On it I've played
>Nioh
>Bloodborne
>Yakuza 0
>Crash trilogy
>GoW 3
>Resogun
>LBP3
>Until Dawn sometime this summer
and then a handful of free monthly games, usually lasts a while

Otherwise I exclusively play on my PC
>>
>>383719258
Microsoft also shot themselves in the dick when they decided to go full Big Brother with the "Always Online" and the Kinect's terms of service allowing them to record audio and video of your living room, as well measuring how many people are in the room as some sort of DRM
>>
>>383717259
I like it when my games just work and I don't need to find a hot fix or update my drivers or have a different type of GPU to run a game.

I bought a PS4 Pro just for "The Last Guardian" and it sucked ass. What is my life?

>MGSV is releasing simultaneously on PC
>thanks Kojima
>game is shitty anyway

All in all, at least I don't feel like it's an entire waste, but I would have expected more at this point in its life cycle. Will almost certainly be my last console though. I can only tolerate so many console releases, followed by slims a year later, followed by pros a year after that. Paid online really sticks in my craw too.
>>
>>383719396
That was really stupid, anon
>>
>>383717259
Bloodborne and nioh
>>
>>383719486
Don't be an idiot, you know what he meant.
>>
The exclusives, even though there are only a few Id say Ive got more than my moneys worth from them.

I still play primarily on PC but I do not regret having played the exclusives, I just wish there was more. Eagerly waiting for EDF5 to come around.
>>
>>383717259
I don't have a decent PC so I play all my games on my PS4. I got one because I really wanted to play Injustice 2, the Uncharted series, God of War 3 remastered along with the new one coming out and I'm really excited for the new Spider-Man. My friends have it also so we play together all the time.
>>
>>383717259
Because I am an idort.
Some games I can only find in PS4.
>>
>>383717259
Bloodborne and the ability to take it places so I can play real fighting games instead of the discount shit many of my friends play on their oldass PS3s.
>Hey Anon wanna play some TTT2?
>Hey Anon wanna play some SFxT?
That shit gets real old real quick.
>>
For Estival Versus, Neptunia, Future Tone and DOAX3. wish I was joking
>>
because a lot of people I enjoy playing video games with play on PS4
>>
>>383717259
Originally for Bloodborne and Nioh 60fps
Turns out Nioh is shit but was World of Final Fantasy surprisingly fun.
>>
Bloodborne, Nioh, and Persona.
>>
It has the exclusives I like, all the AAA multiplats and good indie games end up on it. For the last two years it's been an embarrassment of riches with one great game followed by another.

>>
>>383717259
I don't.
I might be forced to in a year or two however when the Vita goes out of business and the devs migrate to the PS Quadruple, maybe then I can actually play FGs and other stuff with people since PC is a joke for anything that isn't FPS.
>>
Let's say I have a decent PC. What are some games for PS4 that I can justified for buying one.
>>
>>383720094
Depends on what you are into.
>>
>>383720159
I like PS2, naturally I'm into racing, jrpg, and action games

Some underrated gems would be nice too
>>
>>383717259
I thankfully dont.
Friend of mine has one and almost all games I am interested in, and I am not very impressed by most of them.
And he does not have bloodborne, since his daughter always watches him play.
>>
>>383718369
What the shit anon, it will be multi-plat
>>
>>383717259
No way I'm gonna buy one, not when they charge money for fucking online
>>
>>383720495
I probably might buy one when the price of the console is half of the games I would buy to accompany it, but that is several games or price drops away.
>>
>>383720575
It's like $40 for one year's worth of free games every month making up for more than that cost.

To play games and have fun. Recently been having more fun playing old og xbox and ps2 than modern 8th gen games imo.
>>
>>383717259
It's the best current gen console, I know because I own all of them.
>>
>>383717259
Bloodborne
>>
>>383718813
I got a Pro, don't regret it one bit.
If you don't already have a PS4, I'd argue Pro is the only way to go.

>b-b-buh some games actually run slower!!
No they don't in any perceptible way, stop spouting what you heard on /v/, of course not all (most) games take advantage of Pro hardware, but in the future a higher percentage of games WILL and you will be shit out of luck because you cheaped out when buying the console.

Just take a look at Tekken 7 for example, runs 900p/60 with worse visuals on base model, while pro is 1080p/60 with better visuals too.
>>
>>383718813
As a graffixfag, the PS4 Pro is still worth it on a 1080p display because it'll be the best post processing, downscaler 4k, silky smooth 60FPS (I'm refuse to play anything on the PS4 that doesn't run at 60FPS anyway) all that good shit right?
>>
>>383720895
cost closer to $60 and that's the lowest price, it cost higher if you pay by the month instead of year
>>
>>383722012
No, some games are still locked to 30

see: Bloodborne
>>
>>383722194
At least Boost mode stabilized it.
>>
Because I like the exclusives and PC gaming is too expensive for me.
>>
Because a pc and a ps4 pro is the best of both worlds. Xbox is probably nice for normies and other casuals but when all games that come out on xbox also come out on PC there isn't really a point in getting it.

I actually considered upgrading my PC just to play this, but its ultimately not worth while considering the Devs are dong nothing with the game but adding more cosmetics. The framerate on the PS4 version can get fucking awful at times when there are large battles.
>>
>>383717259
To watch YouTube and gather dust
>>
>>383728271
It's still fun to drop in and out every once in a while, still surprisingly active. Absolutely need to play it with other people though.

It's absolutely fine on Pro. I didn't buy a PS4 until the Pro launched. It's not even a good game really, but there isn't anything else out there like it.

yakuza, persona, bloodborne, misc japanese shit. I want physical media if the option is there, don't want to rig everything through a PC and connect to my TV. I don't play much that really benefits or has a huge graphics ceiling on PC over PS4.
>>
Because I don't enjoy playing games on PC. I stand by this: PCs are for work, consoles are for play.
>>
Games, though the only thing i actually played was overwatch

Finally going to pick one up with the Amazon Prime deal, any more obscure games I should pick up? Already getting P5, Bloodborne, and Yakuza 0, and probably Nioh and GR2 when I get enough money.

Mate, even if they are better on PC ( I fucking hated Dishonored 2 with controller, also it plays like shit for me sub 60 fps ) I still like the guy for enjoying the games. Chill a second damn
