Started The Last of Us today. I'm not far in, only just met Ellie but it looks like it's shaping up to be a great game.
The AI opponents seem kinda dumb though. I had a supposed solder just run out of his cover straight at me and my two allies without a care in the world only to get picked off by my pistol. I hope that's just a one off. Poor AI bugs me.

While it's not a one-off, it happens rarely enough where it shouldn't be a hinderance. That's really my only gripe with the game.

I decided to try PS Now. So I rented Alone in the Dark Inferno. $4.99 for 90 days. I was in the mood for a horror game (and boy howdy, the controls are the scariest damn thing). Worked right as rain for about an hour. Then my connection spazzed and I lost it. It likely went out because I tried to check my trophies, and that is just a bad, bad idea.
But yeah, for a streaming service of an HD game it worked really well. They may just have something here.

I don't know how this happened, but after only 6 starts for the Birmingham Barons, my Road to the Show pitcher was called up to the White Sox, and I had my first start against the Cubs at Wrigley... Which meant I had to bat lol. Now in all the years I've played The Show, all I've ever done is play RTTS as a starting pitcher, so batting is almost completely foreign to me in these games. But aside from having 10 K's, and only giving up 1 run, I actually managed to go 3 for 4 at the plate. Sure it was just 3 freak singles, but it's like a major accomplishment for me lol.

While it's not a one-off, it happens rarely enough where it shouldn't be a hinderance. That's really my only gripe with the game. Further in the game and the AI is actually pretty good. The enemy have actually flanked me on a few occasions and sneaked up behind for a surprise attack rather than staying in one place making it easy. My only gripe now is the ammo system. Joel is living in a post apocalyptic scenario where every bullet matters yet can't carry more than 7 bullets for his rifle? Annoys me, like he can't slip an extra couple into his pocket or that huge bag he's carrying around. I know they're trying to make you conserve ammo to make the game harder but, it just kinda takes me out of the moment. No way in a situation like he's in would you leave a single bullet behind. I've also encountered a few glitches. One where a ladder I was supposed to use wasn't there, another where keycard I needed to get and enemies failed to spawn. Other than that, excellent game.

Ahh yes the ladder glitch, was that at the train station?
I spent way too long trying to figure out what I was doing wrong there!

Bill's Town Luckily I only wasted 5 or 10 minutes since Ellie said something like "we can use that ladder" and there was no ladder nearby so I figured something had gone wrong.

Well, I completed The Last of Us and the included Left Behind DLC. All I can say is wow, what a fantastic game. I'd honestly put it as the best of all time. Great story, great voice acting, great characters, fantastic graphics, excellent gameplay and great atmosphere. Left Behind spoilers! {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Left Behind is excellent too. The build up with Ellie and Riley having fun in the mall and getting together towards the attack by the infected is excellent. I loved it. Great game, I'm glad I got a PS4. I've seen some complaints about the low choice of games but, Id prefer quality over quantity. The only dull game I've played was Killzone. It was ok, but nothing too spectacular. The rest; Outlast, Lego Marvel, Black Flag and Last of Us have all been excellent.

Anyone figure out a way to finish that PT demo without a mic? I don't own one, and all the methods I read online did shit all.

I haven't powered on my PS4 in a few days... is the demo for P.T. still up on PSN? I hope it isn't a timed thing, and I miss my shot.

Sony now have sold 10 million ps4's in 9 months Wonder where they was at with the PS2 at that point in time So far, I've found this comparison of PS2 vs PS3. According to the chart, it looks like the PS4 has sold over twice as much in this period of time as the PS2 did. In 9 months, it seems like the PS2 had sold just over 4 million units.

The Last of Us online sucks.
Not the gameplay, but the fact I can not for the life of me find any games. I just spent 15 minutes waiting to connect to a game before quitting. I thought it was my connection but tested it with War Thunder and found a game within a minute. The servers it seems are just dreadful.

PSN maintenance is scheduled for this coming Monday from 12:30PM (EST) to around 8PM (also EST). As per the usual during these things, try to log in between now and then so you can access the video services and play online still.

Unless Sony massively screws up in the coming years, it looks like they are on track to having another 100+ million unit selling console. Then again it can't be that shocking. They've sold well over 70 million PS3s and that's with it playing catchup to the 360 for several years.
