Well see, if you already have a ps4 lying around, of course you wouldn't be interested in getting your own.
nah even then i would only be a little more interested in it, and still only 4 games is pretty sad

But since you want me to address your list:
Until Dawn - not my thing
EDF 4.1 - not my thing
Dragon Quest Heroes - mehhhhh
Gravity Rush 2 - would probably get if it was $10
Tales of Berseria - nah
persona 5 - can get on ps3 and it's basically the same
Resident evil 7 - I suppose, but again more something i'd get at $20
Street Fighter V - Would be interested in but fighting games are usually a bad investment for me
Batman AK - I have the first two arkHAAAAMS games on Steam and haven't touched them
Blazblue -  eh
Project Diva -  no thank you
Kingdom Hearts I guess - that franchise is too fucked to even consider getting back into
Odin Sphere - that's a fucking ps2 game bro
Valkyria Chronicles (again, arguably) - ps3 game

girl;
Oh I was talking about the 2 collections of all previous kingdom hearts games that released this year


So was I, in addition. girl;

not to mention, of course:

  • people who won't be bothered with pc gayman

  • the sheer futility of owning both a quadrups and a bone



with this perspective, all good games available on the quadrups make it worthwhile, not just the exclusives hocuspocus;

Yea see this is why I love it because PC gaming to me is a headache when the computer starts to slow down after years . Ps4 I can count on to reliable perform at a pretty high level

I'm sorry your bad taste keeps you from the best console out there.

And Odin Sphere on ps4 is significantly better, bro

And valkyria being on ps3 also is why I said arguably

they have historic and nostalgic value, but no practical value as tools (if their games are easily accessible on newer platforms, which is the case for most retro gaming hardware today)

in my eyes, yes while many nes games are available on newer hardware, or emulator  (nes is just an example) there is nothing quite like holding that classic nes controller

Kalahari Inkantation

so it has nostalgic value lol n_u

old hardware is also valuable if you happen to already own games for the old hardware

but to go out of your way to buy old hardware and old games for old hardware when you could much more easily and cheaply buy the remakes and ports and remasters and digital versions that are widely available on newer platforms seems like a needless expense, unless you truly value the nostalgia/history factor
