KETCHUP ON ANYTHING BUT A FRENCH FRY!?
How about some runny scrambled eggs?
I like ketchup on everything.

Oh me too, me too. Except runny scrambled eggs. I like 'em dry and just salted.
You are very welcome Casey. Very few people have the privilege of viewing my naked body in their head.
More like Crapcom, amirite?

no wii u games???
So just to rattle off a quick few reviews of PS4 games I've played so far:
Assassin's Creed 4: Great. Pretty much universally the best game in the franchise although the nostalgia factor for AC2 keeps that on top for me. Plays great, looks amazing. Still too many of those annoying eavesdropping missions though. 9/10
Infamous Second Son: Great. Super fun open world with crazy superpowers and amazing graphics. Too short but very fun. 9/10
Killzone Shadow Fall: Looks great (y'know what, every game looks great so I'm gonna stop saying that) but yeah pretty boring, no desire to play again. 5/10
The Last of Us Remastered: It's TLoU, prettied up a bit and with Dualshock 4. 10/10.
MGS Ground Zeroes: Really fun and full of Kojima's wacky shit but way too short. 8/10, would be 10/10 if it was longer.
Tomb Raider Definitive Edition: Re-release of last year's Tomb Raider for 360/PS3. Massive visual overhaul, much more so than TLoU. A fun game but tries too hard to copy Uncharted. Tries to establish Lara Croft's character but goes wayyyyyy too quickly from "oh fuck oh shit oh my god I had to kill that guy ahhhhh" to murdering hundreds of people without batting a pretty eyelash. 7/10.
Watch Dogs: Played for a few hours then returned it. I can't remember the last time I didn't finish a game I bought. It was just...I dunno. Really boring? It didn't click with me. It's hard to say. It wasn't exactly BAD per se, but I just really couldn't be bothered with it. No score.
Transistor: A really neat downloadable game. Awesome visual style, mood, and music. Story tries so hard to be enigmatic that it's almost non-existent. 7/10.
