Got a PS4 Pro and a PSVR for Christmas, along with Assault Suit Leynos and Call of Duty IW.

Let me know how you enjoy IW. I hear there are a couple great single player campaign levels ;)

It was pretty fun overall, enough for me to finish it. There is a robot named Ethan that is really funny. Overall, I had more fun with Titanfall 2. Both games have double jumping and wall running, but Titanfall really incorpated it into the levels.

Had some random bits arrive today. An RGB interface and some breakout cables. Get to fool around with that stuff tonight, will be fun.

Edit: Fun nugget: the interface unit was shipped in a cardboard envelope with no padding. Seems like a poor decision.

Awesome glad to hear you enjoyed it, do you remember which levels you liked the most? I haven't played the whole thing, curious to hear peoples openions. I am glad some people are playing it, it sounded like this was the year cod hit the wall / jumped the shark from reviews and sales, but hearing people enjoyed it is awesome.

I got Titanfall 2 and will be checking it out after my family holiday trip, excited to see what they did differently - I agree that the traversal abilities were not used in the level.design as well as they could have been in IW

I haven't played a CoD game since World at War so I can't really compare IW to the others. The levels i enjoyed most were the ones that tried to be different. The ones where you're in space and you use a grapple hook to pull yourself around or were there is a big mech in your group and you are support. I found the flight missions to be somewhat boring and uninspired. The story was mediocre stuff you would find in an overweight popcorn movie. The terrorist group you are fighting operates on a thin premise and you're just kind of thinking, what are we fighting for again? On a smaller scale the interactions between characters was enjoyable and like in Rogue One the robot was the stand out character.

which one of those games had the underwater levels?  i never played them, but that always looked cool.
i know one of the boxes also showed zombie levels, but those looked mediocre.

I.W. has some zombie side game, but I haven't tried it. It has some kind of 80s theme like it is their version of Blood Dragon, but I'm not sure if it has any story or is just a versus mode.

From AliExpress. Ordered back in early October. Only received it now.

I had to trim the edges of the PCB's for it to fit in my boot MV-1C board. It works fine now, though.

Shadow od Destiny is a really interesting game that no one ever talks about.

But you're talking about it right now.  I always forget about the psp version

I wish I could find a copy of disaster report and raw danger.  What did those run?

I've actually owned it (Shadow of Memories (PAL) ) before back in the day and had played a bit of it. A little later I somehow lost my copy of it (I still have a game save of it on one of my old memory cards), and as time went on I kinda forgot about it until I saw it again from a guy selling some PS2 stuff on one of our gaming related sites.
Looking forward to playing it again.

200 ZAR for both. So that would be a little under $15.
Both local buys. The same guy that I bought Shadow of Destiny from. 
I'm still looking for the third game in the series released for the PSP.
