4 o'clock feature

Number 1 – Valiant Hearts
Top Five Games of 2014

 

Week 3 of my Facebook 4 O’Clock Feature has it all, from nasty horrible men with no lips, to a green floor sweeper who likes to break wind. Farting and Horror you can’t get better than that.

I hope you have fun watching.

 

4 O’Clock Feature – W/C 23rd Feb 2015

Monday 23rd Feb: Outlast – Part 4 

Outlast was a horror title that hit the instant game collection early in the PS4 life time.  You are armed with nothing other that a camcorder to protect you from the tortured, violent inhabitants of an asylum.  This episode we meet a less than pleasant chap with body issues.  It doesn’t end well.

Tuesday 24th Feb 2015: Watch Dogs – Digital Trips

The Hype surrounding Watch Dogs was huge and sadly it didn’t entirely live up to it.  I thought is was good fun although I get a bit bored with it at the end.  The digital trips however were totally insane.  Here are a couple of them for you!

Wednesday 25th Feb 2015: Abe’s Oddysee New and Tasty

I played the original on PS1 back in 1997 and it was brilliant then.  The visual and control tweaks are perfect and the game is just a appealing as it always was.  Farting as a game mechanic can’t be beaten.

Thursday 26th Feb 2015: Final Fantasy XIV – Class Run Through: Marauder – Arcanist

Final Fantasy XIV is a great MMORPG and in this series of videos I run you through the different classes.  The first video featured the Arcanist – a magic user with a little friend and the Marauder – a class who settles things with a big axe.

Friday 27th Feb 2015: Valiant Hearts – Part 1

This game came first in my top 5 of 2014.  It is a stunning title that deals with the difficult subject of the first world war through the eyes of 4 ordinary people.  It is heart breaking and the developers deal with this difficult subject so sensitively.  A must play title

 

I hope you have enjoyed this week’s 4 O’Clock Feature and I will see you all again next week.

4 O’Clock Feature Round Up – W/C 16th Feb 2015

4 O'clock Feature

A sublime experience charting how Ellie found herself in Joel’s care.

Week 2 of my new Facebook 4 O’Clock Feature brought an eclectic mix of YouTubery from AAA titles to a piece of totally original musical genius (ahem).

It’s been great fun for me to revisit these videos almost a year later and remember how much fun they were to make.

I hope you have fun watching.

 

 

4 O’Clock Feature – W/C 16th Feb 2015

Monday 16th Feb: InFamous Second Son – Part 1 “I’m Told That Hurts”

InFamous Second Son was an excellent game that really showcased what the PS4 was capable of graphically.  The story was good and the voice cast excellent.  However after finishing Second Son I went back and played InFamous 2 on my PS3 and it was a superior game in pretty much every aspect.  Story, environments, enemies, scope was just so much grander in InFamous 2.  I hope that the next InFamous game is less of a showcase and more a complete game.

Tuesday 17th Feb 2015: Mike Checks Out… Mercenary Kings

A really challenging retro title from Indy developer Tribute Games that got its funding via a successful Kickstarter campaign. Four player split screen co-op and hard as nails game-play made this game a real treat when it appeared as part of the Instant Game Collection in April last year.

Wednesday 18th Feb 2015: Final Fantasy XIV – Chubby Chocobo Song

OK so I love Final Fantasy XIV it’s a brilliant MMO which plays beautifully on PS4.  However my favourite thing in FFXIV is the Fat Chocobo mount and here is my musical homage to this brilliant bird.

Thursday 19th Feb 2015: Dragon Age Inquisition “The Wedge of Destiny”

Dragon Age Inquisition made my top 5 games of 2014 and in my wanderings around Ferelden I happened upon this brilliant Easter Egg.  I present to you a video showing  how you discover the infamous shield ‘The Wedge of Destiny!!!’

Friday 20th Feb 2015: The Last of Us Left Behind – Part 1

Another game that made my top 5 of 2014.  This is the first episode of a complete playthrough and what a game it was.  It adds so much to Ellie’s character and her motivation and determination in the first game.  Do not play it unless you have completed the main game.

 

I hope you have enjoyed this week’s 4 O’Clock Feature and I will see you all again next week.

4 O’Clock Feature

I have recently spend far more time working on PS Phwar’s Facebook page (click the button to the right to see it in action). One of the things I have decided to do is at 4 o’clock on week days post one video out from my back catalogue on to the page.

 

So Far This Week…

I have popped an eclectic bunch of videos up this week for the 4 o’clock feature.  From my first ever video; Don’t Starve – Woody’s Dark Secret, to one that’s never had any views; Dead Nation Apocalypse – So Many Zombies. So here they are again with a little story next to each… Enjoy

4 O’Clock Feature – W/C 9th Feb 2015

Tuesday 10th Feb: Final Fantasy XIV – Writing a Basic Macro.

Macros can save a lot of time and limited button space in this excellent MMO. This is a short basic tutorial for a combat Macro.

Wednesday 11th – Don’t Starve – Woody’s Dark Secret

This was the very first video I posted to PS Phwar on 7th February 2015.  It isn’t the most slick or professional effort, but it remains the most viewed video on the channel.  Woody the Canadian woodsman’s hilarious secret is exposed.

Thursday 12th Feb 2015: Dead Nation Apocalypse – So Many Zombies

This poor video has never had a view. This was still early days so the sound quality is not very good, I am much better at that now. Still it does show how far (hopefully) the channel has come in the last 12 months.

Friday 13th Feb: Surviving Don’t Starve – Fire!!!!!

Don’t Starve was number 4 on my favourite games of 2014 list. This video perfectly shows just how brutal this game is. My joy at finding a safe haven is cruelly snatched away in fiery doom.

I hope you enjoyed my round up of the 4 O’Clock Feature. Tune in next week for more PS4 nonsense.
