General Videogame Thread

Because just webswinging around New York is so fun all the little side-missions and 'collectible' stuff is great fun as well as the story. The only bits I've not really been a fan of are the small missions where you take control of another character but other than that its incredible.
Yep, some of the cut scenes blend in so well with the combat it felt like I was watching a film at times.
 
This seems really common, but honestly, I've never done it. Just don't walk around with your gun out?
But often I'll get a ping on the map as I'm riding by, so I'll stop to find someone being robbed or what have you - don't worry I'll come to the rescue and kill the raiders, then attempt to talk to the person I've saved, and bam I'm aiming my gun at them because the gun is naturally out at this stage and they leg it, so naturally they end up amongst the corpses. Seems common that a lot of NPC interactions are preceded by shooting things!

haha.

Here's something I didn't find out until late in the game, if you double tap L1 with a revolver out, Arthur puts it in his holster in a stylish way
 
Anyone got any tips for aiming and shooting on ps4 controllers, trying to play last of us, and can't get my head around it. used to using a pc mouse and keyboard.

Last of us unfortunately has very poor aiming mechanics (to be honest movement mechanics in general. It drove me mad). It's going to feel shit no matter what you do. Other than that, using a controller you 'aim' with both sticks. Turn to targets with your right stick but make small corrections left and right with your left stick. Different games have different types of aim assist but the main two slow down your crosshair when moving over targets with your right stick, and the other turns you to stay on targets when strafing with your left stick. You want to abuse the latter as much as possible. Set your sensitivity on the lower side of middle, not so much that you feel like you're turning in treacle (though again, LOS is shit for this and will always feel naff to some degree), and practice.

Cheers pal, will give it a got. Just finished spider man and didn't have any probs with that but not a lot of aiming to be done in that one.
