I have DriveClub and I think it's pretty damn good. Anyone who wants to join my club can hit me up if you want.

Regarding the penalty system, I think it's pretty fair actually, now that I've played plenty.

You have been able to do that for quite awhile (like 6 months), I remember reading it gave you an extra hour and a half or so of battery.

Yeah that light issue I've never had but it has been tweaked for months, the new thing is themes and a few other nice to have things thrown into the large full number firmware upgrade coming shortly I'd suggest reading up on.

That bit ryan did there on PS4, totally agree, though I've always found the ms/nintendo(wiiu) controller stupid screwy where the dual sticks are, dual shock 2-4 have always been well aligned for me and very comfy with the tweaks to the body of the PS4 other than the lame shoved in little share/option buttons. I'll never use share and option sometimes I'm hitting the huge sensor button first then sliding over to find it in the crack there.

Good to know about the light bar. I'm surprised it can net over an hour extra of battery life though. That seems a bit crazy. It's just an LED yeah?

I'd be happy to join your club Reprise, the game should arrive tomorrow.

I dimmed the light bar months back, but I've never seen an improvement in battery life, if I'm honest :?

@RyaNtheSlayA That's cool man. Just shoot me a PM or add me on PSN and I'll send you an invite. Edit: Just seen you have your PSN ID in your signature, like me. I can add you and send you an invite.

It sure did a number on the thumbs but I got into the Top 10 in Pix the Cat!

I think it's stupid you have to score 1,200,000 points in the main arcade grid to unlock the daily challenges. Then again, the daily challenges are far, far more difficult than the main grid.

I'm seriously surprised I haven't heard more about this game on this forum. Seems right up the alley of a lot of people here.

So Alien Isolation is pretty broken.

Even after being patched the cutscenes stutter like nothing I've ever seen and within an hour the game crashed on me.

Nobody notified me that a lot of the tension comes from whether the game is going to break when I go through that next door or not. :roll:

Well, when it works it's a fantastic looking game and the atmosphere is really something else so at least that lives up to my expectations.

I had a freeze or two but otherwise was cool.

Anyone get freezing when they try to bring their PS4 out of standby? This is a new issue for me after the 2.0 update.
