I own most of them (Natch. I way over-spent in the glory days of XBLA). Looks like half of them are games included in the Rare compilation. Not sure I need to buy that now.

Backward compatability is great, and Rise of TR is a nice exclusive, but Sony might drop VR

It's pretty similar, same slightly floaty controls and combat. Bloodborne's weapons were hit and miss with people, but the combat was actually satisfying in that one imho.

I'm willing to sign up for the preview program to get in on this action today. Can someone invite me, please?




I'm playing through Dark Souls II right now and can't get over how floaty and insubstantial the combat feels, it's mildly frustrating. Still fun, but man I would love for it to have some heft to the combat.
