So I got a PS4 that I rarely have time to play. Maybe a bit every Friday/Saturday night. I got Star Wars Battlefront, which is fun, but I've come to realize I am hopelessly outmatched in most online matches I'm in.

What's a good PS4 title that I can play periodically and isn't an online disaster where 12 year olds are shooting me in the back as soon as I spawn (yes, I know that sentence makes me seem old)

Skyrim, Fallout, GTA, etc. have been some of my favorites over the last few years.

Saw that was recommended earlier in the thread. Leaning towards that or MLB The Show 2016.
The Witcher 3 is excellent, but it's very time consuming as well, but if you like games like Skyrim and GTA, then you're used to games with long playthroughs.

You are crazy if you like video games and don't play Witcher 3.

It was Game of the Year in media publications; I'd go so far as to say it was the Game of Many Years. I'd put it right up there with Skyrim. Maybe better. Different, for sure, more polish. But very very very good.

The only real excuse is that its a complete time drain. I played the vast bulk of it in the time I was engaged up until I got married. Since then I am not sure how I would have found the time to get anywhere close to completion, especially now that I have a kid.

This is exactly my problem. :lol

[MENTION=22]Texas Ace[/MENTION] & [MENTION=24]mschmidt64[/MENTION] have either of you ran into a cut scene freeze problem on Uncharted 3?

I'm on Chapter 9 and the game keeps freezing in the same spot. I restarted the game and the system about 5 times and it continues to freeze at the same spot.

I've looked around the internet for a remedy but haven't found one yet. Thoughts?

Uncharted 3? Or 4?

I think I might have though. If it's 3, are you talking about the part where they are at the castle in Syria, I think it is? Nighttime, there are RPGs?

I had an issue there, can't remember what I did. Might have gotten a new disk.

It's Uncharted 3. It freezes in the opening cutscene of Chapter 9 where Nate is guiding a recovering Charlie through the caverns.

I saw a couple of sites where some gamers were saying that resetting/deleting the system data fixes the issue but i don't want to go that route.

I had a freezing issue at the part where they are sneaking around in Syria right before the guys with RPGs start shooting at them and blowing everything up. I think returned it for a new disc.

I have a 2 1/2 year old which is why I only really play for a few hours Friday/Saturday night.

Still might go with Witcher though. I can creep along I guess.

I don't recall experiencing that, but I last played that game over 5 years ago.

E3 is this week. Let's hope for Red Dead 2 along with a remaster of Redemption.

The new Spiderman game that Sony introduced looks outstanding. Looks like it has the potential to rival the Batman Arkham series.

Spiderman has always been my favorite superherooso I'm hoping this game is legit.
