    I bought Madden 15, Shadow of Mordor and NHL 15.

    Not sure how the PSN works now on PS4 or what PlayStation Plus is.

    Any advice or help would be great. Thanks! So far I really like it.

    Now go out and buy GTA V and you'll be OK for a year or two (game keeps updating and is massive).

    PSN is like Xbox LIVE in that it allows you to play with others online.

    PS PLUS I believe is a exclusive membership that allows you to play some games for "free” as well as some other exclusives. You also get discounts.

    Both require a fee.

    Depends on your tastes but I think The Last of Us is the best game of this generation of systems, so that comes highly recommended.

    I think you need PS Plus to play online now, you used to be able to play online for free but not anymore.

    Check out the playstation store occasionally as they can have some pretty good deals. Right now they are doing a holiday sale with new games on it each week, right now there are some okay ones like Tomb Raider.

    I bought mine on Black Friday with The Last of Us and GTA. I honestly can not stop playing The Last of Us. Fuck GTA, Last of Us is so addicting and so much fun! Holy shit.

    Remember a game system is now a media system. You can run Netflix, HBO GO, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, etc through the game system.

    damn whats your PSN name?

    also Dark Knight, I would say buy the Playstation Warranty, I paid like $48 for 2 more full years of warranty for anything, even a drop. But you dont have to buy it until your other one ends, before it ends.

    Damn, that's not a bad deal. I was kind of ticked off cause I paid like $100 for my PS3 wireless headset, and it's now not compatible with the PS4.

    um...It is game over fellas.

    Last night at E3 2015. Sony Playstation destroyed Xbox with two announcements. The first of which is so big, it might be the biggest game in PS4 history.





    In just 12 hours the Shenmue kickstarter of $2 million dollar goal was broke. It's at $2.4 million right now

    That's so awesome. I've got an Xbox1, hoping the article was right and that FF7 will eventually land on Xbox as well. They need to remake FF4 and FF6!

    I'm so pumped for the FF7 remake. Fallout 4 sounds awesome too but I've sort of blocked out all the other goings on because of the FF7 remake.

    As you should be, but man you need to checkout the game play trailer for Fallout 4. I've never seen anything like it.

    I love FF7, but I would rather see them remake FF4. To me, it was the best of the series.
