It reminds me of the late PS2 days when I still bought a lot of games used, and would find tons of games in all kinds of genres and budgets, every week.
thehaxfactory what?!?! PS4 has a shit ton of new good exlusive games. Horizon zero dawn, Detroit becoming human, The last of Us remastered and pt2, Uncharted 4, persona 5, etc
Uncharted 4 and Uncharted 2 are neck and neck for the best in the series. Persona 5 is debatable, but it's constantly in GOTY discussions by basically everyone who's played it.
Thank you so much for talking about remote play on the Vita. Went out and got a Vita right after this video and couldn’t be happier!! It’s amazing how good it works!
I have had my PS4 since the day it was released and the games I would totally recommend would be... 1. Persona 5 2. NieR Automata 3. Horizon Zero Dawn 4. Every Uncharted game 5. Ratchet and Clank 6. The Last of Us Remastered 7. Crash Bandicoot Remastered 8. Bloodbourne 9. The Last Guardian 10. Infamous Second Son 11. Gravity Rush 2 12. Until Dawn 13. Yakuza 0
Shotana Studios Thank you! I would also like to add that you don’t have to be a teenager to enjoy persona 5, I’m an adult and it’s one of my favourite games of all time!
So - just wanted to just throw this out here: My son and I are HUGE fans of yours and we have watched almost every video you have put out. You can REALLY see the love and passion you and your friends have with all of the content you cover. Side note - LOVE the game room update video. (Finally Subscribed today and will be supporting you on Patreon)
I find it funny how you guys couldn’t get into Persona 5 because the setting was in high school, but enjoyed Life is Strange which I felt had heavier high school themes. Love your guys picks, definitely some games I need to check out!
D. San Well give it a shot. It takes a little bit for the game to open up, but there is so much more to that game than the thief bits of the game. IMO it has the best UI I’ve ever seen in a game and the story is fantastic! I was a big fan of Persona 4 and I think 5 is more than a worthy sequel.
Yeah I really don't see Persona like its about High School, you can do a few things in the school to get stats but thats it. You don't have to spend much time there. You start there most days but its just one area, there's a city to explore, not to mention the dungeons which is the highlight. Persona 5 really isn't a school themed story.
I put a 100+ hours into persona 5 and have now started new game plus the game is a 10/10 and a must for rpg fans story great gameplay great music great. Just a awesome game in general
@@courage552 probably my favorite ps4 game, i bought it when it released so i got the cool metal case. i think it's kinda stupid that they are putting so much time and effort into an extended edition of persona 5. p5 is a complete game already and most of what theg are adding sounds uninteresting to me. i would much prefer they spent that time working on persona 6, rather than make changes to a game that's perfect as it is.
@Jason Strom As much as I agree with you man, it doesn't give us conservatives a good image to just go around writing paragraphs off of some random dude's one liner.
Dissident Bones - Dude... that only affects skin color. Culture, which is FAR more important, is based on current location and its history. I’m sorry, but anyone who hates diversity only because of the color of somebody’s skin (that includes everyone, NO EXCEPTIONS) is standing in the way of human progress and needs get the hell out of the way or they will be mercilessly ran over.
Junior Orellana Unless you can sell to someone privately and receive a decent $ amount, I would just keep your original and buy the Pro on sale. Just my opinion, hope MJR gets back to you.
Gotta respect the fact that Metal Jesus gives Reggie a lot of time to chime in and explain the different aspects of getting into buying a ps4. Nice to let your guests throw their two cents in on the various games and stuff you guys talk about here. Props!
In other words the character setup and development in Persona series just sucks. I feel them too, persona is really childish. Life is Strange seems very mature in comparison tbh.
@Pehrcy he's right though. Persona 5 (a game I love) is directed at teenagers. It's written like a young adult novel and it's sometimes pretty juvinile and childish in it's humor and central themes, which is something I again personally like. Life Is Strange imo is definitely directed at people who are past college.
@@deathfrombelow1193 I have no idea what you are talking about, Life is Strange is literally written with very young teenagers in mind and if you analyze if for even a few minutes the story completely falls apart with no consistency or basic storytelling skills. I mean, go back and actually look at the dialogue and tell me it is for adults when the characters are literally going 'omg that is so sad face' and talking like it is perfectly normal to talk like that.
Persona 5 my dudes - I'm 30 +hours into my playthrough and I'm completely hooked. Don't remember the last time a game achieved that. oh and also Bloodborne.
skin19head69 So did a ton of other games on this list. The remastered version also has the left behind DLC which was new content for PS4 only. Oh and it won more game awards than any other game in history, so we can all spout 'opinions' but to say it's meh is just plain stupid.
go back and watch the video, because you obviously weren't paying attention. he didn't say he didn't like Persona 5, there were things he liked and things he didn't. as far as Nier Automata goes, Reggie didn't have that game in his collect. so that's why it got an honorable mentioned, so you don't have to dislike a video because he didn't have two games that are your favorites. i swear weeaboos are fucking retarded sometimes, not everybody is gonna like what you like so move on.
he's into life is strange, not sure if the characters are teens but they're young and from what i've seen of it, i'd expect him to have the same problems with that game as he does with persona. seems very similar the way you run around building7 relationships with everyone. i haven't played it though so maybe that's not a good comparison.
Love my PS4. I love playing the Jackbox games and Use Your Words, then stream on RUclips or Twitch using the 'share' button so I can play with other people around the world.
Dismissing Persona 5 because it is in a high school setting is one of the biggest mistakes one could make. It has been quite a while since I played any game that tackles adult, serious topics like rape, suicide and mis-use of political power as stunningly as this game. Persona 5 makes you care about the characters involved by giving them meaning and antagonizing it's villains trough those dark themes. Please. Do yourself a favor and play this game.
Billy Powell it did win best rpg and was nominated for game of the year at the vgas this year. With that reputation they should at least give it a chance.
Sorry, but to say that Persona 5 is a teenager game, while you play games like Ys or Odin Sphere..... sounds a little bit hypocritical not to mention ignorant The Persona games deal with very mature themes, specially Persona 5
Also, Life is Strange? Why did you guys not give this game the same treatment? The first episode is basically teenage school bs and you still loved it! Judging a book by it's cover is not cool.... Hypocrisy abound here
Daniél Pinto Gouveia yeah but it's a little tough to get over it when what they're complaining about is in a bunch of games they mention that they liked. it doesn't make any sense.
Man i love you guys, but skipping over Person 5 breaks my heart for both of you. I gave it a chance even though it wasn't my cup of tea and i didn't regret it for a second.
DevilBuster Kaz - If that's your opinion, then fine, but based on your opinion, you haven't finished or even started the game. But once you get to the ending, I have a feeling that you might want to eat your words... hehe
Oh well, to its own experience then... Maybe it's cheesy for you, but for others like me it's not. Especially me, who's always been conforming to society, holding feelings inside me always. I usually can't say no to others even when I know i'm being used or abused, and feelings are bottled up inside me at the time... So when I played this game, even though it's "Cheesy" for some, it made a huge impact on me. I've reflected on myself, which I did not feel on other games (especially the pew pew pew ones). I know the plot is ridiculous, but it think you did not get what the game wants to convey. But if you don't like the game, it's fine, maybe other games are more suitable for you. Good luck on your life! Ciao!
I understand why they wouldn’t like Persona 5 but they contradict themselves so much with their other cute games they play. And they recommend Witcher without playing it lmao
Jose Moran, that is your opinion. Whether a game is good or not is subjective. I really enjoyed the game for its story, dynamic dialogue and fun gameplay. The swordplay is up to you if you enjoy that fighting style or not, but I found the game excellent. Much better than the hollow games that has been coming out of the industry for the last couple of years with only a couple exceptions.
They can't play Persona 5 because it's too "high-school" but yet they love Life is Strange? I couldn't get through the first two hours of life is strange for the exact reason they don't like Persona 5, it has moody high school kids everywhere. I don't really care if they don't like a game that I do but that specific choice was confusing to me.
If you think persona 5 is for teenagers because it’s set in high school you are robbing yourself of a very dark and complicated experience yes there staining sim aspects but there’s so much to that game
Doesn't like Persona 5 because high school and relationships.. Likes Life is Strange despite of high school and relationships.. Yeah, ok. I didn't like Horizon Zero Dawn because of Post Apocalypse and Open World... Fallout is kool tho.... -__-)
I don't believe I've ever said you liked Life is Strange, so I don't understand why you're being so defensive. The premise of time-traveling in Life is Strange is undeniably wacky, and the voice acting is so poorly-written and cringe-inducing that it's disappointing for a story-driven interactive game like itself. Never said anything about Persona 5.
@@definitelynotarealshinmego9460 of course its gonna be cringey.. its a game with teenagers.. what do you exepct? DontNod is also an underrated studio.. its not perfect but its a good game..
i was thinking the same thing whenever he said he likes life is strange. i never played it but i was thinking doesn't that game contain and focus on all the same things he doesn't like about persona 5?
Yup. Games like Tomb Raider and Horizon do a FPS mode for 1080p. Plus you have supersampling... And 1tb Vs 500gb standard, 1080p streaming/capture, optical out, etc.etc.
MyNameIsBucket You don't know what you are talking about and I bet you don't even play the game. People like to overused the word weeaboo if its anime related and its getting annoying as hell.
MyNameIsBucket Yes its annoying when people overused the same word over and over again without knowing the meaning. Just like when people overusing the word cringe. If you have watch the gameplay and still don't like it then its your opinion.
Persona 5 Hot Pot - VS - Life is Strange Smoke Pot Winner = Life is Strange Persona 5 Gameplay/Story/Quality - VS - Life is Strange Gameplay/Story/Quality Winner = Persona 5
I am another late comer to the PS4 and now looking to get a Vita. So great to have a buying guide from you. I must say though, your buying guides have proven to be treacherous to my wallet. My entertainment budget has shot through the roof since I started watching your channel. I purchased consoles + game libraries for the wii u, new 3ds xl, retron 5 (loving the nostalgic games titles), and the ps4 with vita coming soon (lol). This has become a real hobby/obsession for me lately. You are definitely an "influencer". No worries though, it's all from discretionary income and great fun. Loving your channel and your natural charm. Big Love to you, your wife and all your fun guests. Keep it coming.
its like when someone who loves 3D plateformings doesnt like Mario Odyssey. Doesnt make sense, indeed. Persona 5 is the best of the JRPGs on the system
I was in that same boat a few years ago, thought the game was too dark/edgy for me, till I played persona 5, blowed my fucking mind, so I am happy to say I was mistaken.
Figured I'd jump in and reccommend some games as well, so here's some fantastic games in no particular order: The Last Of Us Remastered The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth Shovel Knight Rocket League Shadow of Mordor Super Meat Boy The Wolf Among Us Street Fighter V Hotline Miami Enter The Gungeon
MrSerpico145 he likes tales of legendia (if I'm not mistaken his favorite tales of game) which is mediocre imo, but describes why he couldn't get into persona 5. I understand everyone has their own tastes, but he plays a lot of childish games, but is too cool for persona 5 lol. He sounded like a hypocrite in this vid. To each their own.
Would LOVE an updated PS4 buying guide in 2022 since the console has so many more games and peripherals since this video was made and I think it will be around for years to come with how the new generation of consoles is so slow out of the gate. PS4 is like the new PS2 because people will be playing it for years from now more so than other older consoles.
The PS4 Pro is $100 more than the Slim, I noticed that when I went out to get myself a PS4 finally, after moving out of my roommate's place. Walmart had PS4 Pros and Slims with 1 TB of memory so, thats a plus.
Knuckles6K: what PS4 Pro were you looking at. every store i been to except for GameStop i see PS4 Pro systems for like $350, and i see PS4 Slim consoles for $249. the PS4 Pro comes standard with 1TB, but the slim usually comes with 500gb but there are 1TB versions but alot of them come with a bundle which usually involves a game. i bought a PS4 slim 1TB last year and with tax i got it for about $329. mine didn't come with a game. what's interesting is i could've got the Pro being that it wasn't that much more than what i paid for the slim and i had more than enough money, but i wanted the slim because i was also trading my base xbox one for the one s and i needed enough space on my desk. plus it's keeps my gaming area clean.
Thanks for at least recognizing Persona 5, honestly one of the best games I've played on the system, but I'm also a persona fan and I didn't know they did a remake of White day! That's amazing, just primed it after seeing this video. Thanks again!
58 year old Gamer. Been playing video games from the 1970s. First game was pong. Thats all it played was ping pong. 2 white lines you move up and down hitting a little white square ball back and forth. And played Nes. Ps1, game cube, Ps2, Wii, saga Genesis. And 2 weeks ago picked up PS4 slim. All i can say is man oh man, this is what all of us old gamers. Wanted. Love the PS4.
PS4 Pro does also have boost mode. Depending on the game whether it's CPU or GPU intensive, you'll see FPS gains of 4fps to 12fps up to the cap. Broforce is digital only, but much more playable on the Pro than the original PS4 for example(it'll be retail soon through Special Reserve Games.) *edit* You have to activate it in one of the setting menus.
Hold the phone! So you’ll play life is strange but not persona 5? They both have teenagers in high school with supernatural elements. The only difference is is that one is a good video game and the other isn’t even really a game or good at being a choose your own adventure story. Ahhh you’re killing me Smalls!
Yeah I just want them to see this comment so they will understand that they are missing out for no good and legitimate reason. It’s fine if you don’t like the gameplay but story and setting are only judged by knowing the story and setting, so to that I say “don’t judge a book by its cover.” Oh and life is strange is a angsty Avril Levine fan girls wet dream.
Completely agree, P5 is quite the deep game, specially when you get into the perfect ending or whatever it was called, it blew my freakin mind, I feel like they'll regret saying it's a game for kids, plus how many other games they mention that have kids for characters? come on now.
Was waiting for a Sierra story when you brought up Kings Quest Collection, MJR!! So many great looking games that I've never even heard of in this video. Not sure if I want to add even more to my disgustingly long backlog...
Unfortunately Roberta Williams had nothing to do with the new Kings Quest...other than giving it her blessing. That said, the new dev did a good job updating the series for modern gamers.
Like an idiot, I bought this immediately thinking it was a remaster of the old PC games. It's not. Oh well, should be fun anyway. However... "The Complete Collection" it is not. Half of its contents are actually on the disc, the rest is a patch. Which means, there may at some point be a "Complete" Complete Gold Collection, GOTY Edition. This crap has to stop. Just release it digitally until it's done, THEN release the physical copy. argh! This game, and ones like it (RE7... HZD...) are convincing me to stop buying physical games via retail. I'll just wait until the PS4 is old news and scrape eBay. I have backlogs going back to the NES to keep me plenty busy, and maybe then there will be CFW to let me run it all from a HDD w/o having to rely on flaky optical drives.
Nick Wallette I also had thought it was a remake of all the classics. I haven't purchased it yet. I would love to see an updated police quest collection or style of game.
if your a pc player coming back to console gaming in 2018, no matter your tv i'd recommend the pro if you can afford it. the pro is cheaper than a nvidia geforce gtx 1060 on its own! most games not only have a 4k option, but some include a 1080p 60fps option which is pretty much what i want out of a console. not only that but if its downscaling 4k to 1080p on better hardware its going to look nicer and run smoother than just 1080p. the last of us remastered looks absolutely phenomenal on the 1080p locked 60fps mode!
After almost 2 years of NOT gaming, I stepped away from it, collected comicbooks, saw this video of yours in my recommendation, went to the nearest store and picked up a PS4. I suddenly remembered why gaming is my first love and collecting comics was my fling.
One of the best games I played after buying PS4 is Persona 5. I loved it and spent around 215 hour into the game. Uncharted 4, Last of Us, Persona 5, Horizon Zero Dawn, Nioh. This is my personal top list.
@@Freeman3007 I appreciate people loving this game but I just cant get into it. Its either you really like the game or its not for you theres nothing really in between.
Games I would recommend for first time owners are Bloodborne(yeah it's hard but you feel accomplished when you pass bosses and areas) Horizon: Zero Dawn Doom What Remains of Edith Finch Sonic Mania Witcher 3 Shadow of Mordor Uncharted 4 The Last of Us Resident evil 7 (for VR enthusiasts) Tetris Effect Or ya know since its 2019 resident evil 2.
Pretty cool list. I haven't played RE2, Tetris Effect, Sonic Mania, Shadow of Mordor. I haven't finished Bloodborne yet but I've finished Nioh instead, I highly recommend it!
When I played the PS4 VR for first time I felt motion sickness after about 15 minutes, and after another 10 or 15 minutes I was over it. I have a really weak stomach too, and I was able to power through and was good. So if you can push through initial sickness you can adjust to it.
My favorite games i would recommend to new ps4 owners are. The last of us remastered Wolfenstein: The new order wolfenstein 2 the new colossus GTA V Uncharted the nathan drake collection Uncharted 4 Trackmania turbo UFC 2 Assassins's creed origins. i have so many more games that i love but that is just some of the ones that i think are must buys, maybe not ufc 2 unless you're a ufc fan or simulation fighting game fan
I definitely suggest to anyone to get the pro. With or without a 4k tv. The pro is just more powerful and runs smoother and this way when and if you ever get a 4k you won't have to upgrade your console. But a lot of issues that the original ps4 had are fixed in the pro. I speak from experience as I had the original and it had so many issues that were corrected in the pro.
you are so wrong with persona 5, that game is so mature, touching a lot of themes really dark and real in modern society, definitely is not only teenegers picking up some girls in highschool. i'm not saying it in a bad way, just try the game is fantastic.
I love these videos but I think it's way too soon for the PS4. Many great games will be released in 2018 and even 2019 for this system only. This buying guide will be quite obsolete in a year or 2 from now :(
I understand your point, but as Jotaro Kujo79 points out, they can always do an update, and it's probably good to have at least one buying guide and best games out there for new PS4 owners/potential buyers! :)
pryt86 i didn't say that games mentioned in this video are or will be irrelevant. I said that the video will be partially obselete in the future because it is released too soon. Consequently, 2018 and 2019 PS4 games can't be mentioned in the video and that's my only problem with this guide. It is quite complete for late 2017 but not for the future. Where is No no Kuni 2 ? God of war ? Last of US 2 ? FF7 remake ? Death Stranding ? Shenmue 3 ? Oh right, these games aren't released yet too bad ! There is still a possibility for a part 2 later of course but MJR never did that before so I am a bit worried.
Absolutely love your channel metal jesus. Your Channel has got me in the mood to go back to my child hood of gaming. I am just about to get my Atari 2600 ( Now I am letting you know my age LOL), Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 and a PS2, PS3, PS4, these were my consoles and there were afew others. I have a feeling my collection might grow after seeing your channel. So thankyou. :).
Persona 5 is more adult than the majority of the games you showed... Damn I can’t take this as seriously given some of the games you guys like and your praise for 4 which has way more children in it...
Yes they're the same type of difficult dark gothic games. With melee combat fighting against enemies. And bosses. ''Souls-Games''. Bloodborne+Dark souls 1-3+Demon Souls. I made the mistake of buying physical copy of bloodborne despite already having bought Dark Souls 1-2, and those games crushed my soul... Crush my hopes to ever beat the games. I'm OK with SOME challenge as long as the game isnt so depressing and crushing and dark like souls games are. For example crash bandicoot games (Especially Crash 1) is focken hard but I did it, because it's a colourful fun platforming videogame. Same with CupHead so far (I'm in the last world). +I'm getting donkey kong country tropical freeze in the mail soon, that's supposed to be very challenging. But it's not dark like souls games, it's colourful with fun gameplay.
I'd have to say if you're looking for a relaxing game to play try Dragon Quest Builders. It's very good and very underrated. Great option if you like the DQ series and Minecraft.
One thing I think your channel generally sells short is sports games, which is understandable if you don't like sports games! But one of the best reasons to get a PS4 is that it has the best baseball simulator of all time in the MLB: The Show series. If you love baseball, and want the baseball version of Madden, with much better commentary, graphics, player creation mechanics, and believable gameplay, MLB: The Show is fantastic!

I'm getting my brothers broken PS4 fixed purely for Persona 5 (and some other games I already own and love, but) It amazes me that people can be put off by a game purely because it's based around teenagers, not that I am offended by it, I have a friend that says the same thing about Japanese dramas and she's only 19 so. If you ask me tho, as a youth leader, teenagers are the most dynamic generation that deal with so many real problems both mentally and physically, I mean it's no wonder so many media platforms focus on them. And a lot of the best of these things are based on teens and even preteens! Avatar and Pokemon, although not centred around school for example. Frankly though Persona puts just as much if not more focus on things like the fighting and the plot with real mental and social issues, and requires you to think more about things like time management and strategy... Just my, v enthusiastic opinion...
If you like rpgs I would always recommend the Witcher 3 as you first game, for one it’s just an amazing game and two the value with the complete edition you easily getting 250+ hours from it on one playthrough and if you dropping all the money on a console I feel it’s nice to get a game that’s got a good bang for its buck
Metal Gear Solid 5 The phantom Pain, Deus Ex Mankind Divided, Far Cry 5, Assassin Creed Origins/ Black Flag, Dead Rising 4, Battlefield 1, Batman Arkham Knight, Ghost Recon Wild Lands, Yakuza, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 1&2, DB Fighterz, Yooka-Laylee, WatchDogs 1&2, Mafia3. Rainbow Six Siege. There are so many great games. And if you have an Xbox 1 you pick up the same games.
+MetalJesusRocks. I've just recently bought an Xbox one S console. Any chance of doing an Xbox One buying guide video? Also I'm a huge fan from New Zealand 🤘
CAPCOM784 Do you have an Xbox one X? If so, what's your thoughts on it? Cos since its release I've seen a lot of bad reviews about the console on RUclips
Cuphead Forza Motorsport 6 and 7 Forza horizon 3 Gears of war 4 Halo master chief collection Halo 5 Killer instinct Rare replay Recore Sunset overdrive I’m trying to think of what else I would get. I don’t have one yet. I’m waiting for someone to sell an Xbox one on Craigslist for dirt cheap.
WAFLZNSYRUP buy an Xbox one S from the Microsoft store. I've been on the site a lot since before buying my current Xbox one S. They have some pretty cheap deals too. I've seen some 500gb consoles selling at $199 to $299 USD. Maybe they've changed now but the Microsoft store has some wicked deals. Different price range from NZD tho that's for sure haha!
Persona 5 is actually pretty good if you like turn based rpgs, I have alot of nostalgia for it since I played the shit out of the ps2 titles (and ps2 games in general). I also spent an alot of time on Destiny 1 and Elder Scrolls Online since I really like learning the group mechanics
...Their is a small difference between a sound that comes from a controller, then a (for the time quite good) webcam and 2 small but high res screens in a VR headset...
The "superior" consoles tend to "borrow" innovative concepts and mechanisms from the laughing stock Nintendo quit frequently. Pretty ironic. Not to mention Nintendo usually out sells all their competitors since always. The cliche fanboy defense is Nintendo has crap graphics when the creator said he purposely doesn't focus on graphics since he believe that has such a small factor on the overall fun and replay value of a game. Which prove to be true again and again. Yet the typical and toxic community continues to rip and bash Nintendo fueled by bias and ignorance. I think respect and acknowledgement is due.
Hi guys. You forgot to mention the newer models of PS4 (Slim & Pro) has faster 5GHz WiFi support compared to the slower 2.4GHz of the OG PS4. Better network connectivity and faster game downloads. Btw awesome vid guys! Cheers!
Finally! MJR this is video that I've been waiting for! I just got PS4slim last Christmas and I am totally overwhelmed on which games to buy (aside from the GoW that I pre-ordered already) Thank you so much for this video! 😊
If you don't mind some recommendations, they didn't mention these in the video but the Yakuza games are awesome. It's a mix of old action and brawling with some RPG elements mixed in. Fantastic games. I'd start with Kiwami (remake of the PS2 original) then play Yakuza 0, the prequel to the entire series. Of course, the Uncharted games are also must haves. You'll get some serious play time out of those before God of War releases.
If Reggie and Metal Jesus are together, it is bound to be an awesome video. Love those guys together!
Me too dude
edskt Me Three!
Reggie ❤
SOunds like another metal band

PS4 has such a great library
EposVox just wanted to thank you for your psp hacking tutorial.
:)
It reminds me of the late PS2 days when I still bought a lot of games used, and would find tons of games in all kinds of genres and budgets, every week.
thehaxfactory what?!?! PS4 has a shit ton of new good exlusive games. Horizon zero dawn, Detroit becoming human, The last of Us remastered and pt2, Uncharted 4, persona 5, etc
Uncharted 4 and Uncharted 2 are neck and neck for the best in the series. Persona 5 is debatable, but it's constantly in GOTY discussions by basically everyone who's played it.
Bloodbornes one of the best games on the whole console library. That's for sure a must have.
bakerXderek it’s worth the price of the PS4.
bakerXderek I wouldn't recommend it to everyone though. Bloodbourne is not for everybody because of it's difficulty.
Bloodborne literally ruined other games for me for awhile. It doesn't get any better.
It's THE best in the library imo.
bakerXderek prepare for an extreme challenge tho. But its worth the rage
I feel like this man could become friends with anyone.
I know for a fact he would become my friend.
Which one? Because they both work
Cause he’s such a great friendly guy
Na, he will probs convince you to donate your game stuff to him though
Even Hitler?
Thank you so much for talking about remote play on the Vita. Went out and got a Vita right after this video and couldn’t be happier!! It’s amazing how good it works!
Nick Petro how is the frame rate? Does it hold up consistently whenever you’re doing remote play?
I have had my PS4 since the day it was released and the games I would totally recommend would be...
1. Persona 5
2. NieR Automata
3. Horizon Zero Dawn
4. Every Uncharted game
5. Ratchet and Clank
6. The Last of Us Remastered
7. Crash Bandicoot Remastered
8. Bloodbourne
9. The Last Guardian
10. Infamous Second Son
11. Gravity Rush 2
12. Until Dawn
13. Yakuza 0
Great list. I'm proud to say I've played and completed all except Bloodborne LOL
Dudge that's accurate af
Far better list than what they provided.
luagntxhis haha I don’t blame you, Bloodborne is a hard game!
Shotana Studios Thank you! I would also like to add that you don’t have to be a teenager to enjoy persona 5, I’m an adult and it’s one of my favourite games of all time!
So - just wanted to just throw this out here: My son and I are HUGE fans of yours and we have watched almost every video you have put out. You can REALLY see the love and passion you and your friends have with all of the content you cover. Side note - LOVE the game room update video. (Finally Subscribed today and will be supporting you on Patreon)
I find it funny how you guys couldn’t get into Persona 5 because the setting was in high school, but enjoyed Life is Strange which I felt had heavier high school themes. Love your guys picks, definitely some games I need to check out!
Hiro53Axel I can't get into it because it seems way different than the other ones with the fantasy thief. But I haven't even played it.
D. San Well give it a shot. It takes a little bit for the game to open up, but there is so much more to that game than the thief bits of the game. IMO it has the best UI I’ve ever seen in a game and the story is fantastic! I was a big fan of Persona 4 and I think 5 is more than a worthy sequel.
Yeah I really don't see Persona like its about High School, you can do a few things in the school to get stats but thats it. You don't have to spend much time there. You start there most days but its just one area, there's a city to explore, not to mention the dungeons which is the highlight. Persona 5 really isn't a school themed story.
I put a 100+ hours into persona 5 and have now started new game plus the game is a 10/10 and a must for rpg fans story great gameplay great music great. Just a awesome game in general
@@courage552 probably my favorite ps4 game, i bought it when it released so i got the cool metal case. i think it's kinda stupid that they are putting so much time and effort into an extended edition of persona 5. p5 is a complete game already and most of what theg are adding sounds uninteresting to me. i would much prefer they spent that time working on persona 6, rather than make changes to a game that's perfect as it is.
good to see my black & white brothers unified is key. works 10000x better
It's 2018 I would hope so. The media has really screwed us up again.
Yeah it's not 1901 anymore you know...
@Jason Strom As much as I agree with you man, it doesn't give us conservatives a good image to just go around writing paragraphs off of some random dude's one liner.
Why does it matter what color they are?
Dissident Bones - Dude... that only affects skin color. Culture, which is FAR more important, is based on current location and its history. I’m sorry, but anyone who hates diversity only because of the color of somebody’s skin (that includes everyone, NO EXCEPTIONS) is standing in the way of human progress and needs get the hell out of the way or they will be mercilessly ran over.
I love how he says "he upgraded to the pro" !! Because he's a professional 😂😂😂😁!!!!!
I think this is the most games we've ever shown in a single video... ever!
MetalJesusRocks Great video guys. Shout out to MJR's mom for making him and Reggie get to work on the PS4 video. Rock out!
MetalJesusRocks I was wondering if I should up grade my PS4 to the PS4 pro should I trade in my old one or just buy the pro please let me know???
Junior Orellana Unless you can sell to someone privately and receive a decent $ amount, I would just keep your original and buy the Pro on sale. Just my opinion, hope MJR gets back to you.
so hold on, Metal Jesus who loves racing so much mentioned no racing game. Judgment day must be close by...
MetalJesusRocks geometry wars by Sierra how did you miss the best shooter
Thanks to MJR's mom for being the catalyst behind the video. Great work Reggie and MJR, you guys rock!
Gotta respect the fact that Metal Jesus gives Reggie a lot of time to chime in and explain the different aspects of getting into buying a ps4. Nice to let your guests throw their two cents in on the various games and stuff you guys talk about here. Props!
"I don't like the school setting for Persona 5"
"Also here's Life Is Strange, a game that takes place in school".
wtf.
In other words the character setup and development in Persona series just sucks. I feel them too, persona is really childish. Life is Strange seems very mature in comparison tbh.
@Pehrcy he's right though. Persona 5 (a game I love) is directed at teenagers. It's written like a young adult novel and it's sometimes pretty juvinile and childish in it's humor and central themes, which is something I again personally like. Life Is Strange imo is definitely directed at people who are past college.
@@deathfrombelow1193 I have no idea what you are talking about, Life is Strange is literally written with very young teenagers in mind and if you analyze if for even a few minutes the story completely falls apart with no consistency or basic storytelling skills. I mean, go back and actually look at the dialogue and tell me it is for adults when the characters are literally going 'omg that is so sad face' and talking like it is perfectly normal to talk like that.
Persona 5 my dudes - I'm 30 +hours into my playthrough and I'm completely hooked. Don't remember the last time a game achieved that.
oh and also Bloodborne.
Guy Parizat i have skyrim remastered and have over 300+ hours
I played the game 2 and half times lol.might go back to it soon :P gotta get all waifus.
Those 2 games are easily some of the finest ps4 games without a doubt in my mind.
@@wonder777warrior6 yes lol
where was The Last Of Us?, there were plenty of other remasters on the list
Icaris the game is meh and it came out on ps3
skin19head69 So did a ton of other games on this list. The remastered version also has the left behind DLC which was new content for PS4 only. Oh and it won more game awards than any other game in history, so we can all spout 'opinions' but to say it's meh is just plain stupid.
Chris Knight it’s shit
@@charliechaz1982 he didnt like the game so what? Ill rate it 8/10 because gameplay was repetitive and crappy but i liked the story..
@@nickabbott319 Imagine actually having a shitty brain that thinks that yikes.
You guys don’t like Persona 5 and NieR Automata gets bumped to a simple honorable mention? Man, those are my favorite games on the system!!!
J Kemp it's their opinion. But that shows the great games on the PS4. Never played nier but I heard it's great.
go back and watch the video, because you obviously weren't paying attention. he didn't say he didn't like Persona 5, there were things he liked and things he didn't. as far as Nier Automata goes, Reggie didn't have that game in his collect. so that's why it got an honorable mentioned, so you don't have to dislike a video because he didn't have two games that are your favorites. i swear weeaboos are fucking retarded sometimes, not everybody is gonna like what you like so move on.
Nier automata is my fav ps4 game (and I love a lot of ps4 games)

Spoiler, it sucks.

*Why yall complaining about the high school aspect of Persona V while most JRPGS Reggie plays revolve around even younger kid characters...*
he's into life is strange, not sure if the characters are teens but they're young and from what i've seen of it, i'd expect him to have the same problems with that game as he does with persona. seems very similar the way you run around building7 relationships with everyone. i haven't played it though so maybe that's not a good comparison.
Persona 5 is a game for teens? Is that why it's rated M?
Seriously, it covers very mature topics in a setting that parallels today's world eerily.
Older teens (think High school level) have probably discussed equally mature topics in class.
But it’s for gay antisocial weebs
Bobbynibbles it's high school drama, bottom line. People grow out of it and lose interest in that stuff.
I have a feeling they were assuming that just because of the animation style, which is sad.
The storyline is not that complicated. It is basically a shounen harem.:v
It's becoming challenging naming/listing PS4 games. Kudos to Sony and all the developers for it!
Love my PS4. I love playing the Jackbox games and Use Your Words, then stream on RUclips or Twitch using the 'share' button so I can play with other people around the world.
Very much indeed
Won’t play Persona 5 but plays Life is Strange................
Haha
It’s a better game
@@TheHypeComthe choices don’t matter until the end💀
Well, I've played life is strange and it was a decent good time, but have absolutely zero desire to ever play persona 5.
@@snake5305 Im a newbie.
Is persona 5 no good ?
If not, why
Thank you
Dismissing Persona 5 because it is in a high school setting is one of the biggest mistakes one could make. It has been quite a while since I played any game that tackles adult, serious topics like rape, suicide and mis-use of political power as stunningly as this game.
Persona 5 makes you care about the characters involved by giving them meaning and antagonizing it's villains trough those dark themes. Please. Do yourself a favor and play this game.
its the best JRPG game on the console. period.
Meh
I haven't played Persona 5 yet, but really didn't like P4 golden b/c the social crap ruined it.
Dom Dom what the hell is a JRPG😂
Say it bro. Big up
"the witcher 3, it's epic, but i didn't have played it"
"neither I but it's fantastic"
wew
Persona 5 is so damn fun with an Amazing soundtrack, they really should give it a fair shake.
Hell yeah👊
Billy Powell it did win best rpg and was nominated for game of the year at the vgas this year. With that reputation they should at least give it a chance.
They don't like Persona cause it's with high-school teenagers, but they like fuckin' Life is Strange. Solid logic right there.
Persona 5 is the best game on PS4
flavi_us It’s not just about teenagers at all...
Sorry, but to say that Persona 5 is a teenager game, while you play games like Ys or Odin Sphere..... sounds a little bit hypocritical not to mention ignorant
The Persona games deal with very mature themes, specially Persona 5
Also, Life is Strange? Why did you guys not give this game the same treatment? The first episode is basically teenage school bs and you still loved it!
Judging a book by it's cover is not cool.... Hypocrisy abound here
It was just not for them, get over it. :)
Daniél Pinto Gouveia yeah but it's a little tough to get over it when what they're complaining about is in a bunch of games they mention that they liked. it doesn't make any sense.
They have shit taste. Don’t worry about these guys.
Persona 5 fanboys
I love how they put all the obvious PS4 games as honorable mentions.
Only one game missing...
The Last Of Us: Remastered
God of war also
The last of us 2 will replace that
Final Fantasy XV
@@markroble1100 god of war wasnt out yet when this was made.
@@TheDrRandomness yeah but it's one of the best PS4 games
Man i love you guys, but skipping over Person 5 breaks my heart for both of you. I gave it a chance even though it wasn't my cup of tea and i didn't regret it for a second.
Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami is a must play.
HardcoreMetal89 They are great games can't wait until yakuza 6 comes out
With Kiwami 2 coming out here later, the series has been having a great year.
there overrated
Ok calls persona a kid game, but chooses nitro+ instead of blazblue for a fighter
also the fact that persona 5 is rated M excludes the possibility of being geared toward a younger crowd in my opinion
LMAO
I wouldn't say its got a "wacky anime plot", it's actually really meaningful and cohesive.
DevilBuster Kaz - If that's your opinion, then fine, but based on your opinion, you haven't finished or even started the game. But once you get to the ending, I have a feeling that you might want to eat your words... hehe
Oh well, to its own experience then... Maybe it's cheesy for you, but for others like me it's not. Especially me, who's always been conforming to society, holding feelings inside me always. I usually can't say no to others even when I know i'm being used or abused, and feelings are bottled up inside me at the time... So when I played this game, even though it's "Cheesy" for some, it made a huge impact on me. I've reflected on myself, which I did not feel on other games (especially the pew pew pew ones). I know the plot is ridiculous, but it think you did not get what the game wants to convey. But if you don't like the game, it's fine, maybe other games are more suitable for you. Good luck on your life! Ciao!
I understand why they wouldn’t like Persona 5 but they contradict themselves so much with their other cute games they play. And they recommend Witcher without playing it lmao
His wife put over 300hours in the game. And Witcher 3 is accepted everywhere as one of the best RPG to come out of the genre in the last 5 years.
Steven Smith ok
Jose Moran, that is your opinion. Whether a game is good or not is subjective. I really enjoyed the game for its story, dynamic dialogue and fun gameplay. The swordplay is up to you if you enjoy that fighting style or not, but I found the game excellent. Much better than the hollow games that has been coming out of the industry for the last couple of years with only a couple exceptions.
Lol dude fr
They can't play Persona 5 because it's too "high-school" but yet they love Life is Strange? I couldn't get through the first two hours of life is strange for the exact reason they don't like Persona 5, it has moody high school kids everywhere. I don't really care if they don't like a game that I do but that specific choice was confusing to me.
If you think persona 5 is for teenagers because it’s set in high school you are robbing yourself of a very dark and complicated experience yes there staining sim aspects but there’s so much to that game
Yeah they couldn't have went more than 5 hours in... Its 100 hour game. If you get 25 hours in and you hate it that's one thing but 5 or less nope.
Doesn't like Persona 5 because high school and relationships.. Likes Life is Strange despite of high school and relationships.. Yeah, ok. I didn't like Horizon Zero Dawn because of Post Apocalypse and Open World... Fallout is kool tho.... -__-)
Life is Strange is just a game with wacky time-travel, time-stopping elements, and disappointing voice acting.
I don't believe I've ever said you liked Life is Strange, so I don't understand why you're being so defensive. The premise of time-traveling in Life is Strange is undeniably wacky, and the voice acting is so poorly-written and cringe-inducing that it's disappointing for a story-driven interactive game like itself. Never said anything about Persona 5.
@@definitelynotarealshinmego9460 of course its gonna be cringey.. its a game with teenagers.. what do you exepct? DontNod is also an underrated studio.. its not perfect but its a good game..
i was thinking the same thing whenever he said he likes life is strange. i never played it but i was thinking doesn't that game contain and focus on all the same things he doesn't like about persona 5?
MJR sold me on the vita which i'm using to play persona 1-4, lost a long time subscriber for the p5 disrespect!
Oh my freaking god! I have been waiting for this video!!! Thank you lord MetalJesus &
Radical Reggie! :)
PS4 PRO will be able to run games in a higher framerate, so, of course, the upgrade makes sense even for 1080p TVs.
Yeah the boost mode did a lot of favours for Just Cause 3.
LastofAvari no, it doesnt.
Yup. Games like Tomb Raider and Horizon do a FPS mode for 1080p. Plus you have supersampling... And 1tb Vs 500gb standard, 1080p streaming/capture, optical out, etc.etc.
Says Persona 5 is too high schooly, but loves Life is Strange.... really? Also LiS takes place in Oregon, not Seatlle.
Yes, but Persona is also weeaboo shit which makes the overwrought teen drama about 13.2 times more intolerable.
MyNameIsBucket You don't know what you are talking about and I bet you don't even play the game. People like to overused the word weeaboo if its anime related and its getting annoying as hell.
There are a hundred playthroughs of the game on RUclips. Do you often get annoyed by people calling something what it is?
MyNameIsBucket Yes its annoying when people overused the same word over and over again without knowing the meaning. Just like when people overusing the word cringe. If you have watch the gameplay and still don't like it then its your opinion.

I am another late comer to the PS4 and now looking to get a Vita. So great to have a buying guide from you. I must say though, your buying guides have proven to be treacherous to my wallet. My entertainment budget has shot through the roof since I started watching your channel. I purchased consoles + game libraries for the wii u, new 3ds xl, retron 5 (loving the nostalgic games titles), and the ps4 with vita coming soon (lol). This has become a real hobby/obsession for me lately. You are definitely an "influencer". No worries though, it's all from discretionary income and great fun. Loving your channel and your natural charm. Big Love to you, your wife and all your fun guests. Keep it coming.
Funny how Reggie loves all the JRPGs, but he doesn't like Persona.
He's missing out, big time!
its like when someone who loves 3D plateformings doesnt like Mario Odyssey. Doesnt make sense, indeed.
Persona 5 is the best of the JRPGs on the system
Not all games are for everyone though. Some people aren't fans of Persona's social links or calender system.
Agreed but the whole "because of teenagers" excuse is pretty lame.
Jack Bessant p
I was in that same boat a few years ago, thought the game was too dark/edgy for me, till I played persona 5, blowed my fucking mind, so I am happy to say I was mistaken.
Figured I'd jump in and reccommend some games as well, so here's some fantastic games in no particular order:
The Last Of Us Remastered
The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth
Shovel Knight
Rocket League
Shadow of Mordor
Super Meat Boy
The Wolf Among Us
Street Fighter V
Hotline Miami
Enter The Gungeon
s leach 8 people disagree with you, so...
Reggie are you losing weight? Looking good brother!
But Reggie, you play and love Tales games which have ridiculously childish characters.
MrSerpico145 he likes tales of legendia (if I'm not mistaken his favorite tales of game) which is mediocre imo, but describes why he couldn't get into persona 5. I understand everyone has their own tastes, but he plays a lot of childish games, but is too cool for persona 5 lol. He sounded like a hypocrite in this vid. To each their own.
Would LOVE an updated PS4 buying guide in 2022 since the console has so many more games and peripherals since this video was made and I think it will be around for years to come with how the new generation of consoles is so slow out of the gate. PS4 is like the new PS2 because people will be playing it for years from now more so than other older consoles.
I had to get a PS4 Pro as well because I'm a professional too😁
I’ll pay you to unlock my achievements
The PS4 Pro is $100 more than the Slim, I noticed that when I went out to get myself a PS4 finally, after moving out of my roommate's place. Walmart had PS4 Pros and Slims with 1 TB of memory so, thats a plus.
Knuckles6K: what PS4 Pro were you looking at. every store i been to except for GameStop i see PS4 Pro systems for like $350, and i see PS4 Slim consoles for $249. the PS4 Pro comes standard with 1TB, but the slim usually comes with 500gb but there are 1TB versions but alot of them come with a bundle which usually involves a game. i bought a PS4 slim 1TB last year and with tax i got it for about $329. mine didn't come with a game. what's interesting is i could've got the Pro being that it wasn't that much more than what i paid for the slim and i had more than enough money, but i wanted the slim because i was also trading my base xbox one for the one s and i needed enough space on my desk. plus it's keeps my gaming area clean.
Dark Raven Jr can you send me a brandnew ps4 pro?
Homeless Emperor: there's a small problem with that, i only have a ps4 slim. i have about 50 games.
I was waiting for Bloodborne and Nier automata the whole video
Also, where is Hellblade? :(
Yeah honestly surprised Bloodborne was relegated to an honorable mention.
Tastes are tastes but I agree Bloodborne and Nier are masterpieces and must play on the ps4
I can't believe they didn't mention them either, Nioh is also amazing.
Look at the end of the video. They are honorable mentions.
You guys really complete each other, you're a great team !
Just bought a second hand PS4 Pro with no games and I knew I had to return to this video I watched years ago when I didn't have it. Love you guys!!
Thanks for at least recognizing Persona 5, honestly one of the best games I've played on the system, but I'm also a persona fan and I didn't know they did a remake of White day! That's amazing, just primed it after seeing this video. Thanks again!
A shame you guys didn't include The Last of Us.
Ya, that is really an odd omission, especially considering how highly rated it is.
I don't see what's remotely attractive or interesting about that game.
Good story, awful gameplay
awful gameplay? wtf you must be high on crack
right what the fuck is that guy talking about awful gameplay omg
so, cant play persona 5 cause of school setting, but can play life is strange?! strange indeed ;-)
Life is Strange is much more mature and deep though, especially for adults.
Dawood Williams not really though both are as mature but P5 is maybe slightly more mature
ahhh man u made this video at the perfect timing...just got my ps4 !
Jaden Abed Awesome! Is it worth it? I'm gonna buy a new game console for my 17th birthday and i don't know what to buy! Lol
Just got mine too, it is!
Me too
TheRainbowCrusaders yes the PS4 has an amazing library! Trust me I guarantee you'll love it
the switch is lookin good now but u cant go wrong with the ps4. Still sooo many amazing titles to play and look forward to.
58 year old Gamer. Been playing video games from the 1970s. First game was pong. Thats all it played was ping pong. 2 white lines you move up and down hitting a little white square ball back and forth. And played Nes. Ps1, game cube, Ps2, Wii, saga Genesis. And 2 weeks ago picked up PS4 slim. All i can say is man oh man, this is what all of us old gamers. Wanted. Love the PS4.
PS4 Pro does also have boost mode. Depending on the game whether it's CPU or GPU intensive, you'll see FPS gains of 4fps to 12fps up to the cap. Broforce is digital only, but much more playable on the Pro than the original PS4 for example(it'll be retail soon through Special Reserve Games.) *edit* You have to activate it in one of the setting menus.
Hold the phone! So you’ll play life is strange but not persona 5? They both have teenagers in high school with supernatural elements. The only difference is is that one is a good video game and the other isn’t even really a game or good at being a choose your own adventure story. Ahhh you’re killing me Smalls!
Coffee Peals lol I know I was confused too
Yeah I just want them to see this comment so they will understand that they are missing out for no good and legitimate reason. It’s fine if you don’t like the gameplay but story and setting are only judged by knowing the story and setting, so to that I say “don’t judge a book by its cover.” Oh and life is strange is a angsty Avril Levine fan girls wet dream.
Completely agree, P5 is quite the deep game, specially when you get into the perfect ending or whatever it was called, it blew my freakin mind, I feel like they'll regret saying it's a game for kids, plus how many other games they mention that have kids for characters? come on now.
Did this nigga really say "hold the phone" in 2017?
One is anime
The other isn't. That must be the problem.
Was waiting for a Sierra story when you brought up Kings Quest Collection, MJR!!
So many great looking games that I've never even heard of in this video. Not sure if I want to add even more to my disgustingly long backlog...
Unfortunately Roberta Williams had nothing to do with the new Kings Quest...other than giving it her blessing. That said, the new dev did a good job updating the series for modern gamers.
Like an idiot, I bought this immediately thinking it was a remaster of the old PC games. It's not. Oh well, should be fun anyway. However...
"The Complete Collection" it is not. Half of its contents are actually on the disc, the rest is a patch. Which means, there may at some point be a "Complete" Complete Gold Collection, GOTY Edition.
This crap has to stop. Just release it digitally until it's done, THEN release the physical copy. argh! This game, and ones like it (RE7... HZD...) are convincing me to stop buying physical games via retail. I'll just wait until the PS4 is old news and scrape eBay. I have backlogs going back to the NES to keep me plenty busy, and maybe then there will be CFW to let me run it all from a HDD w/o having to rely on flaky optical drives.
Nick Wallette I also had thought it was a remake of all the classics. I haven't purchased it yet. I would love to see an updated police quest collection or style of game.
You guys are really missing out on persona 5.
It’s one of those games that is a MUST PLAY!
if your a pc player coming back to console gaming in 2018, no matter your tv i'd recommend the pro if you can afford it. the pro is cheaper than a nvidia geforce gtx 1060 on its own!
most games not only have a 4k option, but some include a 1080p 60fps option which is pretty much what i want out of a console. not only that but if its downscaling 4k to 1080p on better hardware its going to look nicer and run smoother than just 1080p. the last of us remastered looks absolutely phenomenal on the 1080p locked 60fps mode!
After almost 2 years of NOT gaming, I stepped away from it, collected comicbooks, saw this video of yours in my recommendation, went to the nearest store and picked up a PS4. I suddenly remembered why gaming is my first love and collecting comics was my fling.
Oh man, you two are SO WRONG about P5....

Cant play Persona 5 because youre not a high schooler anymore? Thats like saying you cant play spiderman because youre not a super hero.

When I played the PS4 VR for first time I felt motion sickness after about 15 minutes, and after another 10 or 15 minutes I was over it. I have a really weak stomach too, and I was able to power through and was good. So if you can push through initial sickness you can adjust to it.
I totally forgot about PSVita remote play.. I gotta try it out again.
KACY!!!!
Yeah that does seem awesome, I may buy one used if I can get it cheap enough to try out.

UFC 2
Assassins's creed origins.
i have so many more games that i love but that is just some of the ones that i think are must buys, maybe not ufc 2 unless you're a ufc fan or simulation fighting game fan
I definitely suggest to anyone to get the pro. With or without a 4k tv. The pro is just more powerful and runs smoother and this way when and if you ever get a 4k you won't have to upgrade your console. But a lot of issues that the original ps4 had are fixed in the pro. I speak from experience as I had the original and it had so many issues that were corrected in the pro.
The console to choose is all of them Switch, Xbox, and PS4/PS5. Not just one. That's just senseless. Great guide! Such good games!
you are so wrong with persona 5, that game is so mature, touching a lot of themes really dark and real in modern society, definitely is not only teenegers picking up some girls in highschool. i'm not saying it in a bad way, just try the game is fantastic.
Besides, you named a lot of games set in highschool, maybe you just don't like the persona games haha.
@@mrsting009 yea and those games had no waifus or jpop...THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
I love these videos but I think it's way too soon for the PS4. Many great games will be released in 2018 and even 2019 for this system only. This buying guide will be quite obsolete in a year or 2 from now :(
they will do an update in 2019 :-)
I understand your point, but as Jotaro Kujo79 points out, they can always do an update, and it's probably good to have at least one buying guide and best games out there for new PS4 owners/potential buyers! :)
well not really dude. All these games will still be good years from now. Yea, there will be new ones. But these will still be relevant.
pryt86 i didn't say that games mentioned in this video are or will be irrelevant. I said that the video will be partially obselete in the future because it is released too soon. Consequently, 2018 and 2019 PS4 games can't be mentioned in the video and that's my only problem with this guide. It is quite complete for late 2017 but not for the future. Where is No no Kuni 2 ? God of war ? Last of US 2 ? FF7 remake ? Death Stranding ? Shenmue 3 ? Oh right, these games aren't released yet too bad ! There is still a possibility for a part 2 later of course but MJR never did that before so I am a bit worried.
I'm 35, and I love Persona 5. XD
The test of maturity is whether or not you went for one of them cougars
U forgot to mention that you're a virgin too.
Enigma Man you are a shitty person
you forgot that Persona 5 is rated Mature

Absolutely love your channel metal jesus. Your Channel has got me in the mood to go back to my child hood of gaming. I am just about to get my Atari 2600 ( Now I am letting you know my age LOL), Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 and a PS2, PS3, PS4, these were my consoles and there were afew others. I have a feeling my collection might grow after seeing your channel. So thankyou. :).
In 1998 N64 released their "expansion pak" that many of the newer games required to play because of the doubled system RAM.
Persona 5 is more adult than the majority of the games you showed... Damn I can’t take this as seriously given some of the games you guys like and your praise for 4 which has way more children in it...
bloodborne an honorable mention.................. come on bruh
Makes sense. It's a niche game. too hard for many people.
I like the gothic environment+atmosphere in Souls games but the difficulty is too much for me. Too frustrating doom n gloom.
Yes they're the same type of difficult dark gothic games. With melee combat fighting against enemies. And bosses. ''Souls-Games''. Bloodborne+Dark souls 1-3+Demon Souls.
I made the mistake of buying physical copy of bloodborne despite already having bought Dark Souls 1-2, and those games crushed my soul... Crush my hopes to ever beat the games.
I'm OK with SOME challenge as long as the game isnt so depressing and crushing and dark like souls games are. For example crash bandicoot games (Especially Crash 1) is focken hard but I did it, because it's a colourful fun platforming videogame. Same with CupHead so far (I'm in the last world). +I'm getting donkey kong country tropical freeze in the mail soon, that's supposed to be very challenging. But it's not dark like souls games, it's colourful with fun gameplay.
Shit game
Just 100% this beast.
I was lvl 121 doing chalice dungeon took my time VS Defiled Amygdala.
Really good game.
I'd have to say if you're looking for a relaxing game to play try Dragon Quest Builders. It's very good and very underrated. Great option if you like the DQ series and Minecraft.
One thing I think your channel generally sells short is sports games, which is understandable if you don't like sports games! But one of the best reasons to get a PS4 is that it has the best baseball simulator of all time in the MLB: The Show series. If you love baseball, and want the baseball version of Madden, with much better commentary, graphics, player creation mechanics, and believable gameplay, MLB: The Show is fantastic!
i think i might consider buyer's remorse after watching this
Driving games in vr make you sick because what your eyes are seeing doesn't match with your ears
Solution: play driving games in vr while driving
"Wow it actually feels like I'm driving a car!"

You’re missing Persona 5, Detroit: Become Human and Days Gone.
And probably some other ones too.
But it’s a solid list.
where are the racing games?
I should have included NFS: Rivals, which is probably my favorite racing game on the platform... Also Trials Fusion is kind of a racing game
Well you did have Wipeout:Omega Collection and Trials Fusion as honorable mentions. You ever play Trackmania Turbo?
Wipeout Omega Collection and Trackmania Turbo are my jams.
Cool that you mentioned Driveclub I actually have it but just haven't gotten around to playing it.
Nice.I played Wipeout Omega Collection at a friends house still need to pick up a copy of my own.
I'm getting my brothers broken PS4 fixed purely for Persona 5 (and some other games I already own and love, but) It amazes me that people can be put off by a game purely because it's based around teenagers, not that I am offended by it, I have a friend that says the same thing about Japanese dramas and she's only 19 so. If you ask me tho, as a youth leader, teenagers are the most dynamic generation that deal with so many real problems both mentally and physically, I mean it's no wonder so many media platforms focus on them. And a lot of the best of these things are based on teens and even preteens! Avatar and Pokemon, although not centred around school for example. Frankly though Persona puts just as much if not more focus on things like the fighting and the plot with real mental and social issues, and requires you to think more about things like time management and strategy... Just my, v enthusiastic opinion...
Tica red dead redemption 2 ftw
Is it just me or does Reggie seem like the nicest guy ever?
If you like rpgs I would always recommend the Witcher 3 as you first game, for one it’s just an amazing game and two the value with the complete edition you easily getting 250+ hours from it on one playthrough and if you dropping all the money on a console I feel it’s nice to get a game that’s got a good bang for its buck
Horizon Zero Dawn, Resident Evil 2, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster, Last of Us Remastered.
Metal Gear Solid 5 The phantom Pain, Deus Ex Mankind Divided, Far Cry 5, Assassin Creed Origins/ Black Flag, Dead Rising 4, Battlefield 1, Batman Arkham Knight, Ghost Recon Wild Lands, Yakuza, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 1&2, DB Fighterz, Yooka-Laylee, WatchDogs 1&2, Mafia3. Rainbow Six Siege. There are so many great games. And if you have an Xbox 1 you pick up the same games.
Persona 5 is AMAZING!!!
Have you heard of Kawasaki, Chihaya, Sojiro, Iwai, Sae... I honestly can’t count all of the adult social links. Just bond with them!!!
PS4 and Nintendo Switch make a awesome combination! Even with the new 3ds xl!!
Infamous second son is one of my all time favorite PS4 games!
+MetalJesusRocks. I've just recently bought an Xbox one S console. Any chance of doing an Xbox One buying guide video? Also I'm a huge fan from New Zealand 🤘
Neither of us have an XBOX One yet... but if Microsoft wants to send us one for review... well ;)
CAPCOM784 Do you have an Xbox one X? If so, what's your thoughts on it? Cos since its release I've seen a lot of bad reviews about the console on RUclips
Cuphead
Forza Motorsport 6 and 7
Forza horizon 3
Gears of war 4
Halo master chief collection
Halo 5
Killer instinct
Rare replay
Recore
Sunset overdrive
I’m trying to think of what else I would get. I don’t have one yet. I’m waiting for someone to sell an Xbox one on Craigslist for dirt cheap.
WAFLZNSYRUP buy an Xbox one S from the Microsoft store. I've been on the site a lot since before buying my current Xbox one S. They have some pretty cheap deals too. I've seen some 500gb consoles selling at $199 to $299 USD. Maybe they've changed now but the Microsoft store has some wicked deals. Different price range from NZD tho that's for sure haha!
Persona 5 is actually pretty good if you like turn based rpgs, I have alot of nostalgia for it since I played the shit out of the ps2 titles (and ps2 games in general). I also spent an alot of time on Destiny 1 and Elder Scrolls Online since I really like learning the group mechanics
The thing about the cellphone call coming from the controller, the wii did it~
...Their is a small difference between a sound that comes from a controller, then a (for the time quite good) webcam and 2 small but high res screens in a VR headset...
The "superior" consoles tend to "borrow" innovative concepts and mechanisms from the laughing stock Nintendo quit frequently. Pretty ironic. Not to mention Nintendo usually out sells all their competitors since always. The cliche fanboy defense is Nintendo has crap graphics when the creator said he purposely doesn't focus on graphics since he believe that has such a small factor on the overall fun and replay value of a game. Which prove to be true again and again. Yet the typical and toxic community continues to rip and bash Nintendo fueled by bias and ignorance. I think respect and acknowledgement is due.
PS4 isn't my favorite console, but for some reason, I keep coming back to watch this video. Definitely one of my favorite episodes. =)
Hi guys. You forgot to mention the newer models of PS4 (Slim & Pro) has faster 5GHz WiFi support compared to the slower 2.4GHz of the OG PS4. Better network connectivity and faster game downloads. Btw awesome vid guys! Cheers!
I got to a boss in Resident evil 5 and ran out of ammo. I had to restart the game. 🤦♂️
Likes Tales but not Persona LOL
*facepalm*
John Smith I bet there’s more than just he don’t play “Teenagers games” thing, like he lost a bet to never play the game or something weird
Likes Life Is Strange but not Persona 5 lol
where is Last of us remasterd, Dark souls 2 and 3, mgs5, nioh, bloodborne, divinity origin sin?
Ds2 wasn't that good tho ds3 and bloodborne are phenomenal games
A .A why was it not good? And did you like mgs V ??
Got my introduction to the Guilty Gear series on the og Xbox and was blown away by the style and graphics.
Finally! MJR this is video that I've been waiting for!
I just got PS4slim last Christmas and I am totally overwhelmed on which games to buy (aside from the GoW that I pre-ordered already)
Thank you so much for this video! 😊
If you don't mind some recommendations, they didn't mention these in the video but the Yakuza games are awesome. It's a mix of old action and brawling with some RPG elements mixed in. Fantastic games. I'd start with Kiwami (remake of the PS2 original) then play Yakuza 0, the prequel to the entire series.
Of course, the Uncharted games are also must haves. You'll get some serious play time out of those before God of War releases.
