Monster Hunter: World - PS4

I got two games when I got my PS4 and Monster Hunter: World was one of them.

I already had Monster Hunter Freedom and Monster Hunter Freedom 2 for my PSP and I must confess the games were always a mess to me, but I decided I should take some risk and get this new game. You see, I like typical JRPGs by turns but some action JRPGs are cool too. So even if I've never quite understood the structure for the games I got it.




I still cannot get quite well the online structure of it. And it is all mixed up with the offline structure. And I never get how I have to accept the Quests, if I have to create one, join one, or whatever...But maybe I'm the one that needs to get into the web and search for the game handbook lol

None the less the game is kinda cool. The version is enhanced for the PS4 pro so you get HDR TV show that is a beauty to the eyes.

And then you're off to kill some monsters that are like colossus next to you!

 You get lots of NPCs to go to that gives you inside notes about a lot of things going on in this enormous world and I don't have more that age to acknowledge it all...I'm at that step where sometimes I click too much in the 'next' option without reading all of the information and then I'm all 'ups!' because I missed something useful. So pay more attention to it than I do! lol

As you can see the other characters are well designed and even during gameplay they look like this. Not only on the cutscenes. That's the power of true 4K. I was never that gamer that got big eyes and all that impressed with the HD and 4K graphics if the game is only that and poor story and poor gameplay. But if it's a good game in it's essence, with a good design level, good characters and stories, etc...if you add to that these impressive graphics it's like Heaven!

Right now I'm just at the beginning of the game (because I cannot play a single game for too long and I'm always jumping form game to game) and I already have this cat figure as my companion that I called T. He's cute! And together we already hunted 2 monsters. I was trying to get the third one, even got a trophy doing so because it was my first ever monster that I mounted, but it leaved the area before I could actually killed it. Because only after like an hour hitting it like hell I understood the only hitting points actually causing damaged were the ones inflicted during the times I mounted it and the other times I hit it with things I've thrown at it with my sling. I have an other chance to go after it, so that's what I'll do!

Call of Dutty WWII - PS4

I got a PS4 Pro for my birthday. I didn't want it but I was forced to accept it. Only because I know I already have enough games to last my lifetime to play in my PSP and PS2. But since I had to accept the gift I began to collect some must have games, and this beauty, the Call of Duty WWII was one of them.

I have all the Medal of Honor games for my PS2 and the thing I remember the most is the first time I played the begin of the first Medal of Honor, that D-Day level at the beach...it's one of those marks that a good game leaves on you forever.

So I was quite excited to see, after all these years, what it would be like playing it again, this time around in the CoD franchise, and leaving behind the 128bits and into the 4K era.

And it is the same feeling all over again!

You are a simple soldier and the game start aboard the ship where you meet your mates and that's the best way to bond instantly with your character and the others the game have to offer.

Then you are already in the middle of hell! You are being pushed by your mate to escape from the bullets and trying to survive the beach and then the bunkers full of German soldiers.

Only finished the first mission but I'm already in love.

The realistic feeling you get throughout it is immersive even if when you already turned off the game. After a couple of days I'm still telling about my friends about the guns I found, about how stupid I was not being able to throw the grenade well and how I ended up throwing it against a wall and exploding myself, how the context moments are quite gore (that helmet-head-smash is something...) but then how you feel the friendship in those moments you have to save your injured mate...

Yep. It's a great game!
