Recommend Some PSN Games.

Post by The Shoemaker »

New to the PS4 here, looking for some recommendations on some good indies/PSN games. I took a look through the "most popular" section of the PSN Store but I didn't see anything that really stood out. The only game I have on my radar currently is Rogue Legacy, but I'm sure there are plenty of other goodies out there.

So, what are some of your favourite PSN titles? Feel free to mention PS3 and VITA games as well.

Vic adores Helldivers, and it's a fun little game, lots of bug shooting. Gauntlet: Slayer Edition is free right now if you have Playstation Plus, and I actually like that a lot, though I've not had anyone to play it with. Nidhogg is a cute dueling game that really gets the adrenaline flowing, lots of back and forth action. Blue Estate is a very fun fps on rails game, reminiscent of Time Cop and/or House of the Dead (there are no zombies in BE). Secret Ponchos is a fun little top down multiplayer game, lots of quirky spaghetti-Western characters to play with and customize through different game types. Apotheon is a platformer with a Greco setting, and it's really quite a bit of fun with the art style.

Has anyone tried Everyone's Gone to the Rapture? I've heard some buzz for the game and it's on sale for $12 this week.

Also Nidhogg is on sale for $4.50 so I may try that one as well.

Get rapture if you're suffering from insomnia. I drudged through an hour and don't have any compelling reason to go back.

Nidhogg is amazing fun at any skill level. Playing it at a party made it all the better.

I posted somewhere else about how amazing The Talos Principle is. I should have posted here too. It's not on sale anymore. :(

OlliOlli and its sequel are both incredibly good. If you have any appreciation for Tony Hawk or Skate (or especially if you fantasize about a 2D medley thereof), you will enjoy it. Even if you don't, it's a quality game that plays as much like a platformer as a skateboarding game. Can't recommend it highly enough.

I do like Skate, I have OlliOlli on 3DS though. Need to play it some more but it has some good mechanics.
