So who are we gonna roll so we can both afford a PS4?
Who do you think? She can afford a corset-style leather jacket.
If you're both very good, I will buy you one for Christmas, but you have to share. No fighting.
Unless it's a fight to the death over who gets ownership. Then, of course, you may proceed.

From what I know of both of you, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't break a sweat repelling you.
That and, y'know, I'm a bad-ass Internet bitch.
And I carry.

@Thenomain lives closer, so he gets to try first and report back.
Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.
That Last of Us 2 trailer is enough to make me pick up the first one I think.
Also, Soulcalibur 6, cannot, fucking, wait.

We clearly need to gang up.
You go for the feels, I’ll go for the logics, and we'll hit the one-two nerditry.
I basically broke out in tears when this trailer came out. And the song Ellie's playing? The real version's haunting, ruthless, and beautiful.

@ganymede This game can not come soon enough. I am trying not to have too many expectations for it.
You hate me, don’t you.
Okay, when will there be a PS4 bundle with this? I’ll start budgeting now. Ramen for a month can’t be that bad, can it?

See, ramen's already about a third of my diet.

With what?
TLoU2 is coming out in 2018. TLoU:R is a game you can pick up for $20. I'm not sure if they're selling it through the PS Store.
With my monthly savings on cable, I could buy you and Auspice consoles, and still get a PS4 Pro.
Goddamned cable.

@ganymede A little more folksy than I like usually but still great.
That arm thoough... clip her wings... fuck. Just. Fuck.

@lithium
Yeah that trailer for the game is particularly brutal and was wholly unexpected. I expect TLoU 2 will be as emotional as the first game was. And it was one of only two games ever that made me feel like my heart was ripped out of my chest.

Yes they are. It's how I got it, and here's the link for it: TLoU:R

The first 15 minutes the game made the first 5 minutes of Up look like sunshine and rainbows.

@ganymede Yeah. UP was a happy joyful experience in comparison.
Goddamned Scorchers.
HZD: The Frozen Wilds remains fun as shit.
But fuck you, Scorchers.

Goddamnit, I just bought the Steam link on sale at Thanksgiving ($5) so I could play just LA Noire on my TV. Don't make me have to save up for a VR Setup!
I have been playing a lot of They Are Billions, a really neat RTS where you have to build up your base then survive in a world overrun by zombies.
The thing is that the map starts choked with zombies and at intervals you are attacked by hordes, each twice the size of the one before. Just prior to the end time? You get attacked by every surviving zombie on the map as well as literally thousands of them for all directions. A really, really hard game even on default difficulty, but tremendously satisfying.
Hell, I paid the full price when it came out. No regrets. Still playing Overwatch obsessively. The seasonal/holiday events and daily arcade match changes break up a bit of the repetition.
And Mercy is the true MVP, @Faceless . Don't lie to yourself.
Edit: Just realized I was about a month behind with that. Yeeeaah.
