You're right, and I think the author took the wrong tack by disparaging DLC. I totally agree with his love for RNG content though! Binding of Isaac is a true masterpiece with nearly infinitely (super fun!) replayability. It's hard to compare the value proposition between DLC and RNG but games that get RNG right (rare though they are) can be played, basically, forever. Hard to compete with that.
Super solid list! Glad to see Riddick in there.
It's Jeff Minter doing it, guaranteed to be excellent!
These arcade action sports games are a blast. NHL Hitz next, please!?
Wish the article had a performance comparison analysis with the latest PS4 system software (4.5x).
TLDR: Try using the Wii U Gamepad Stand.
Which company is more "complacent"?
XBox 2016 - Xbox Slim offering, NO VR, NO upgraded hardware SKU (Scorpio coming end 2017)
PS 2016 - PS4 Slim, PS VR Headset, Upgraded hardware SKU (NEO)
Nintendo 2016 - No show. (except GO which they didn't author, too busy counting $$$)
I don't think that word means what you think it means.
Nothing, but resolution isn't subjective.
Will pay any price for this ;)
If you play guitar and read n4g, you must try RS!
"Destiny was often regarded as being an online version of Borderlands — which is something I think a lot of us would love to see."
The online version of Borderlands IS BORDERLANDS. It has online, Co-op.
Co-op (same couch or online) is *THE* killer feature IMO.
There is plenty of really good stuff:
Killzone
Hot Shots Golf
God of War Collection
Hotline Miami (so awesome)
Rogue Legacy (so awesome)
Fez
Steamworld Dig
Dead Nation
TxK (tempest 2k remake from Minter!)
Guacamelee!
Zen Pinball 2
Stealth Inc.
Tearaway
Spelunky
Those are all 8.0+ games IMO. Most are inexpensive too. If you're already a PS+ member, yo...
700p, obviously not everyone buys from Amazon but I'd call them a statistically significant sample set -

As a PS4 convert from Xbox, I'm experiencing TLOU for the first time. I'm ~10 hours in, and I can't get over how well they did the story, characters, and presentation. It legitimately raises the bar for the entire industry.
TLOU is a huge deal - all those Xbox converts who now own PS4s have never played it.

There is a reason v-synch isn't on by default. It has very serious consequences for framerate (idling until the next v-synch). So, yes, you can entirely eliminate the tearing but your framerate might drop by 20% or more (judging by the tears in that GIF).

Perhaps this picture from Amazon's Distribution Center represents a more significant sample size than you not personally knowing "a SINGLE person who has ACTUALLY bought a console off of Amazon."

Co-op Resogun? /IN
Dead Nation for $3.75 is a fantastic deal. Excellent arcady co-op play. Housemarque does not disappoint.
I don't know if this is cross-buy but the game is excellent on Vita as well. Insane deal if it's cross-buy for $3.75.
These are the guys responsible for the original Star Control and Star Control II. Classics. I'd love to see a modern re-making and who better to do it?!
