genrlzod Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 My copy of GTA doesn't arrive for a week. What was the advantage of preordering 7 months in advance/ I preordered through Amazon and chose release day delivery and got it today. How/where did you order?

Gotham Kid Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hey guys. I have never been a gamer so bear with me. If I were to buy the PS4 ( my kids have a Wii ), would there be any games for a 5 yr old ? My eldest ( 12 yrs ) most likely would have much selection to choose from but my concern is the little one. Would the PS4 be the best choice ? Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Nielsen Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Just keep the wii also? Not sure how many games will be on the PSN (smaller/downloadable games from playstation network) at launch. And this was the first launch list i googled http://www.ign.com/wikis/playstation-4/PlayStation_4_Launch_Titles Just remember games from the ps3 PSN won't carry over (irrelavant to you, but others might not know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally's Comics Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Just remember games from the ps3 PSN won't carry over (irrelavant to you, but others might not know) I wonder if they'll have an aftermarket adapter for this. I find this is so dumb. One of the things that kept me as a PS player is the fact that I can play a PS1, 2 and 3 all on the same system. for PIP: I'd say get an early PS3 that converts down and go hog wild. There are thousands of games for PS1, 2 and 3 to play and you can get them very cheap now. Just last night my boy played Scooby Doo night of 100 frights (PS2) and once I put him to bed I plugged in the new GTA V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Nielsen Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Just remember games from the ps3 PSN won't carry over (irrelavant to you, but others might not know) I wonder if they'll have an aftermarket adapter for this. The plan is that, eventually, you can stream pretty much any (playstation) game through your PS4. But that is sometime far into 2014 as far as i know. And to clarify: it's just the games that don't carry over, as i understand it, if you currently subscribe to PS PLUS that subscription will carry over, and there will still be "free" games every month. EDIT The PlayStation 4's cloud-based streaming features will be coming to the new console in early 2014, Sony revealed during the company's E3 press conference. Sadly missing the console's "Holiday 2013" launch window, game streaming will be provided by Gaikai, giving access to plenty of "critically acclaimed" PS3 and PS4 games. It's a particularly important service, seeing as the PlayStation 4 won't be backwards compatible with PS3 discs. Vita games will also be available for streaming, though that feature too is expected to land a little further down the line again. It is not yet clear whether the streaming launch in early 2014 will be global, or just for select territories.

Wally's Comics Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 With that said - has anyone played "Scooby Doo night of 100 frights (PS2)" it's a cool game for fans of the early 60's show. The video graphics are a little blocky (even for PS2) but that didn't stop me from enjoying it. This is a side to side scroller which is great for kids to get introduced to video games. The skill level is oddly enough multi-level. The beginning and most of the game is easy enough for a toddler to play it (skill level 2 out of 10), but there are odd places in this game where the programers kicked it up a notch (skill level 8 out of 10) but those places are deep into the game. I was really amazed at how deep this game is and almost every old school SB villain is in this game. I'd give this game about a solid 7 out of 10 and is a lot of fun for a scroller.

Would the PS4 be the best choice ? Thanks for your help. The list of games for the PS4 is pretty small right now, especially for young children. Usually takes a while, at least one year, until the developers build a nice list of games. The PlayStation and XBox consoles are really for teen and adult gamers. I barely see any five year old kids games on this list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_4_games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better choice would be upgrading to a Wii-U, then maybe jumping to PS4 later when there's a bigger selection. By then your kids will be a little older as well.

It's the best GTA game by far (I've played all of them); it has more of the good and none of the bad that usually comes with this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkham Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Batman Arkham City GOTY edition is $19.99, the price of the Harley DLC is worth that alone. Re-playing and I'm determined to find every Riddler trophy, hostage, clue. See you next year then. There are a butt load of trophies alone!! Good luck brother!
