  4. Any particular memories?

I'll start since I've made this com:

  1. PS3, which I got when PS4 was already out. I bought it in a grocery store which also carried some electronics, and sometimes they were in deep discount. They had one X360, one PS3 12GB and one white PSP.

Yea, I went out just to get bread one day at night and came back with a PS3 on a whim. Kinda sad I didn't also get a PSP, but this was my first console and I didn't really know what to expect. I only played on PC until then and was using a 360 controller already, so I was more predisposed to that, but I wanted to play Journey, so I gave PS3 a shot. Glad I did, honestly.

Recently I've also been discovering some PS1 games (on emulator, albeit PS3 can play those too.)

  1. When it comes to PS exclusives (at the time), that would probably be Beyond Two Souls. I'm one of those who play games primarily for the story.

Metal Gear Solid 3 and Sly Cooper remasters definitely up there too.

For multiplatform stuff, shoutout to Brothers: The Tale of Two Sons, Life is Strange, Destiny and open world games like GTA IV/Online and Sleeping Dogs.

  1. You might guess that by looking at the sidebar, but Puppeteer and Tokyo Jungle need to be experienced by everybody.

Sly Cooper also doesn't get the love it deserves I think.

  1. I never thought I'd ever care about trophies, but some of those platinums are pretty memorable: Watch_Dogs (my first), GTA IV (latest and achieved after 8 years) or Destiny (soloing a raid without dying).

Probably more importantly, I had bought a steering wheel and Gran Turismo 5 to learn to drive properly. It really is a good trainer.

  1. Sampling PS1 games. Really liked the Crash trilogy (on an emulator with save states; otherwise it's impossible). Nothing else has grabbed me much so far.
