Blog a Day #19

Hello everyone, how are you? As I've mentioned, I got a PS4 last year during Black Friday and while I haven't played many, I have played quite a few number of games that I've had fun with. Here are my favorite PS4 games from 2017...

Batman: Arkham Knight

Batman: Arkham Knight: This is basically the game I wanted to try on the PS4 the most. This is basically the last game in the Batman Arkham Trilogy (Origins doesn't count) and I was pretty blown away when I tried it. Was such a fun game and as usual I will say more at a later date.

Trasnformers: Devastation

Transformers: Devastation: As many of you know I love Transformers. I've played only a handful of the actual games and I really wanted to try this when I saw it. It was being removed from digital platforms last year and decided to grab a physical copy. I really loved it. They really captured that feel of the original 80's cartoon and even got most of the voice actors as well. Not everyone's cup of tea but I really enjoyed it. Might be the best Transformers game out there.

Persona 5

Persona 5: I got this one very late since it was a Christmas present. But wow was it definitely worth the wait. You and a group of highschool students become the Phantom Thieves, who set to change the hearts of adults who have done some rather questionable things. It's a really great game but will say more at a later date.

And those are all the PS4 games I played last year. Thanks for reading and...

I got a PS4 on a Black Friday sale two years ago and really enjoy it.

I reviewed the Transformers Devastation game. I think I liked the Fall of Cybertron game better.

I just got finished playing Ys 8, an awesome PS4 game that came out last year.

I enjoyed Arkham Knight a lot, but something about it felt off. A very good game that does a great job of making it feel more like an authentic Batman experience and adding its own flavor, just less than the sum of its parts. Persona 5 was great too and one of my favorite RPGs, there was just too much of it. When I'm thinking of ways they could have trimmed it down to 80 hours, something's wrong even if I still loved what I played.

Transformers: Devastation gets surprisingly tough during boss battles, at least for me. I picked that up last year as well.

Arkham Knight got a lot of flack for the Batmobile, but that's honestly my favorite part of the game ... outside of the annoying tank battles, especially when they are stealth-based. I think a lot of people were still mad about the terrible PC port at the time as well.

P5 was my favorite PS4 game of the year along with FFXII The Zodiac Age, though my overall favorite game of 2017 was Breath of the Wild.

I've been meaning to catch up on all the Batman Arkham games. I love Rocksteady.

I loved the art and design of Devastation, but the actual gameplay was a bit antiquated. Still, cool that SOMEBODY digs REAL Transformers.
