    Odd, possibly stupid question:

    When you plug the charging cable into your controller, does it become a "wired" controller, or are the inputs still wireless?

    Still wireless, but there is an option in the settings to specifically make it wired.

    Not a stupid question. I use my PS4 controller on my PC, and since my PC doesn't have bluetooth, the controller has to be plugged in to work. So at that point it's a wired controller.

    I'm not sure what the behavior is on PS4, though.

    All the Transformers games are getting delisted everywhere. Guess that Activision license finally expired.

    Don't give up. The PSN blog post said there were going to be 5 weeks of sales, new stuff each week. So there's time for it to show up again.

    Whoa really? So... That mean those of us who bought it still get to play/download it right?

    Shouldn't be any problems if you bought those games. It won't be a PT situation, just means they'll no longer be for sale digitally.

    It's well within their power if they wanted to, but 99% of the time people who have bought it already will get to keep their purchases.

    Yup. Both the Transformers games and the Korra game have been delisted from PSN. I was planning on getting the Korra game sometime. But not anymore. This sucks.

    Five weeks? Holy cow. Really want to put steam to shame I see. Ok, well I'll keep my eyes open.

    Ugh. Bloodborne Complete Edition is on sale for $1 less than The Old Hunters, which isn't on sale.

    Goddammit PSN.

  • LD50LD50 Registered User regular
    I bought bloodborne. I had some funbux left over from something else who knows how long ago, so it was even cheaper than I expected.

  • Lavender GoomsLavender Gooms Tiny Bat Registered User regular
    Hopefully you got the complete edition because if it was just the base one then you'll spend the next year waiting for the dlc to go on sale.

    Picked up The Last Guardian for $20. Pretty interesting so far, but the controls and camera are pretty shitty. Fortunately it's not enough to hurt my enjoyment of the game, so that's good. The animations on Trico are amazing too! It's almost like it's a real cat-bird. Started realizing pretty quick that "hang on to Trico" is a legitimate puzzle solution. Had this wall I just couldn't figure out how to get past, and then I thought "WHat if I just climb on Trico and see if it'll jump over" So I did, and while trying to climb up to its back, it started the cat butt wiggle jump animation and I'm like "notyetnotyetnoteyet ahhhh!" Thankfully it isn't like SotC where you have a grip meter and can fall off...

    I also enjoy tossing the butterfly barrels into the air and having Trico catch them in its mouth.

    I like that the sale prices of games from the first week seem to still be active throughout the entire sale (the "sale ends" wording on each game varies, but the earliest I've seen is 1/2/18). I've added 4 games into my cart already (Sexy Brutale, Virginia, Saints Row 4, and Little Nightmares), and I'm guessing that there will be a game or two that I'll want in future weeks, but I'm glad I can wait until the end of the sale to buy them all in case I stumble into a 20% off code, they have a 15% off $100 deal like previous years, or I get some PSN money from a random family member on Monday.

    Was considering picking up Hob, Hellblade, and Obduction as well, but those were still kinda pricey and I can probably wait until a better deal or they get added to PS+ IGC.

    God tag me when you finish Virginia.

    I absolutely loved like 80% of it and then WOW it does things. Very excited to discuss it.

    @mxmarks I quite enjoyed Virginia when I played it at launch, but I admit that I had to Wikipedia it just now to remember what happens near the end. Right. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

    Is Icey any good? It looks interesting but I don't really ever see anyone talk about it. I'm probably going to pick up Doom because the music I've heard is just ridiculous. The story sounds interesting (dunno if there's much of one, but the prologue narration in the soundtrack is kind of awesome).

    Pick up DOOM. Do it. Then, rip and tear until it is done.

    DOOM has one of the best soundtracks in the history of videogames.

    The story is that there are demons around. The Doom Slayer does not like that fact, and takes it upon himself to rip and tear until it is done.

    I think @Madican was singing its praises last week. I've played some and enjoyed what I've played. It flat out tells you it's a META game and with good reason.

    Also yes pick up DOOM.

  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    Doom has more of a story than people are letting on

    But yes it's real good

  • GMaster7GMaster7 Goggles Paesano Registered User regular
    I bought DOOM for $20 last Black Friday and put off playing it for a year because - although I knew everyone said it was fun and great - I just wasn't ever in the mood for "grimdark heavy metal gorefest in Hell."

    I finally booted it up like a month ago (despite still not really being in the mood for what I just described), and I couldn't put it down. Played through the whole thing over the course of a week or so. It's so, so good. It's fun to control, it's fast, it's interesting, and it's just a video-game-ass video game in a way that other games don't even attempt. I really loved it. Highly recommend it.
