You're going to have an epic time!! If I could make a suggestion though... I'd start shortest playtime to longest: God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Witcher 3. Each one will be a different experience, the only downside is that you'll never get to play them again for the first time...
God of War pulled me through a tough time, Persona 5 made me love turn base combat with its stylingshness, Horizon Zero Dawn, Witcher 3 and FF7R just blew me away.
Persona 5 is a game that if was a nintendo exclusive the sales would fly through l the sky. I can't shake the feeling that although it is known as a brilliant game it kinda goes over the head of many ps4 users and fans.
@@personalspace6270 I don't remember the numbers so I might be wrong, but while its sales passed other persona games, by global standards it's ok, while if it was a nintendo exclusive I think its sales would have been world class.
plasma - Black Desert I’ve not played Horizon yet but will sometime, God of War and The Witcher 3 however are 2 of the best games I’ve ever played and 2 of the best games on PS4. Honestly give them both a go.
Objectively, mine would be: - Bloodborne - Horizon Zero Dawn - God of War - Marvel's Spider-Man - Gravity Rush 2 - Final Fantasy VII Remake While personally, mine would be: - Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal - Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana(excited for IX: Monstrum Nox) - The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III(excited for IV) - Yakuza 0 to Yakuza 6(and Judgment) - Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and more JRPGs..
‘The Eternal Backlog of Shame’ needs to be an official thing! Such a good description for how it feels to have so many games and not enough time to love them properly
Ive heard its a very interesting and original game. I think my top 7 would include bloodborne, witcher 3, rocket league, red dead 2, spider-man, god of war and maybe battlefield 1 but there are so many other great titles.
God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2, Uncharted 4, and Spider-man. The Crash Team Racing remake gets a special mention because of wonderful memories with friends.
When PS4 first came out, I was at an awkward stage in my life, I’d just left uni having no clue what to do or how to live my life and had stopped gaming in an effort to “grow up” I guess. It wasn’t until I started watching you guys and seeing the relentless quality of new games it felt like where coming out every other day that I fell back in love with gaming, it was like seeing an old friend and we could pick up exactly where we left off, I don’t see me stopping again. Destiny 2 first game I played after my hiatus Sekiro Persona 5 FF7remake AC odyssey Spider-man Rime Best console I’ve ever owned, can’t wait to see what PS5 brings us
Eh to me, no one is too old for gaming IMO. I'm near 30 now, I have a fiancee, living on my own, have a full time job, etc. Still love gaming, still do so after work whenever possible :) yeah. So you do you!
When you spoke about GOW and fatherhood, I know exactly what you mean. My son is 14 month's old now, since he was born I've only got Spiderman and life is strange 2 platinum and completed mw2r and mw 2019. Only really get time for a couple games of FIFA or cod, these days, but I wouldn't change it for anything. One thing I'm really looking forward to is teaching him how to play, and playing games co-op with him, just like I did with my dad when I was young.
Red dead 2 and Detroit would've replaced Edith Finch and Rocket Leauge for me. I'm sure they're both brilliant games but I haven't played them, though I am meaning to.
Bloodborne Nier Automata Alien Isolation GT Sport God Of War Horizon Zero Dawn These are the games that I'll forever think about when talking about the PS4
My 7 are these, in no particular order: The Witcher 3, RDR 2, Nier: Automata, Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4, Gran Turismo Sport and Hitman. I'm pretty sure Cyberpunk will be the definitive game of the generation. A blaze of glory in one of the best - if not the best - generation of gaming.
Detroit Become Human, Spider-Man, Final Fantasy Type 0, Until Dawn, God Of War.....Ok Just every game in my ps4 case because honestly this generation has been amazing for games.
You know I was scratching my head trying to figure out what my first PS4 game was and I'm pretty sure that was it...I think I still have that game too.
For me, playing Bloodborne and The Order: 1886 were defining moments when I first played them. They were the first 2 games I played after coming from PS3 to PS4 and the graphics on The Order: 1886 just blew me away
Bloodborne for me. I couldn't stop thinking about it in between sessions. Would find myself reading about it online and couldn't wait to get back and give the latest boss I was stuck on another try. The feeling of sweaty-palmed, heart-about-to-burst-out-of-your-chest elation when you finally have that breakthrough moment and beat each boss is something I've not experienced in any other game.
If I had to pick then: Persona 5 - my fav game of all times, and Uncharted 4 - my first PS4 game. PS4 generation is filled with true gems: God of War, HZD, Nier: Automata, DMC5, AC: Origins, Control, Spider-Man, Bloodstained, and many more with still lots to come.
My top. Eight ps4 games that helped me during the coronavirus pandemic this year. 8. Wwe 2k20 7. Injustice 2 6. Street fighter 5 5. Horizon Zero Dawn 4. Saints Row 3 ReMastered 3. Spider-Man 2. Streets Of Rage 4 1. God Of War These are eight ps4 games i recommended to try for fun a good laugh and stress relief Just my opinion PlayStation Access.
Jevons Jackson: Great list but for anyone reading this, do not buy WWE 2K20, it has an embarrassing amount of bugs in it and honestly should be sued for releasing a game that broken.
FF7 remake is the reason i switched to PS4 , Horizon Zero dawn was first game i got while i waited for it and i have never looked back, my xbox now gathers dust in the bottom of a cupboard
I agree, Persona 5 is my game of the generation and one of my favourite ever games as well. But their is Witcher 3, Bloodborne and God of War as well so their is extreamly though competition
@@justinthibodeaux8601 i know it was but thats my point its like saying uncharted collection is a generational game for ps4. Its great but doesn't fit as defining a generation because its on ps3 as well.
I don't know why I keep watching these. Maybe because Rob is such a likeable bloke. But every week it's MGS, FFVII, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Witcher, Skyrim, Kingdom hearts and maybe some obscure JPG. PSA really needs to expand its library of games.
Alien: Isolation is my PS4 game of all time. It’s such a perfect horror game and perfect spin off movie game. I platinumed it a few years ago and I just love it so much.
Red Dead 2 was the pinnacle of PS4 for me. Hit my feels so hard I couldn't play it again for 3 months because I kept mournfully saying "Oh Arthur..." I continually live in hope that a remake of Red Dead 1 since they redid basically all of the playable areas from RD1
I sadly would have to disagree. While Persona 5 is one of my favourite games of all time. It didn't influence much. While Rocket Leauge showed the world that you could make an Esports game that wasn't a MOBA.
True. Though i will agree that persona 5 is also one of my favourite games of all time. And i will always love it far more than i could ever enjoy rocket league which yes has more influence in the medium. Still persona 5 when it came out for ps3 and 4 did bring the genre to a bigger audience. So much so that they are capitalizing it bringing back 4 for pc. sorry for the long coment persona 5 just gets me going xD
I like Persona 5 quite a bit, but jeez I have put so much time into rocket league over the past 5 years. I think for me it's one of the generation defining games
@@drano511 The list is about games that personally defined the PS4 generation for you...not what defined the generation as a whole. Rocket League isn't on my own list because I've never actually played it nor did I ever (or do I) have any interest in it.
Nier Automata is probably my game of the generation, but the latest release I own is DMC 5 so maybe something better than that came out between then and now. I doubt it though
My Personal Top 7 Generation-Defining Games: 1. Persona 5 Royal 2. The Witcher 3 3. God of War 4. Red Dead Redemption 2 5. Horizon Zero Dawn 6. Uncharted 4 7. Final Fantasy 7 Remake
1. Nier Automata: brilliantly put together full of emotion and unexpected events. 2. Rocket League: the only online multiplier I play to Enjoy-Get Angry-Fight with Friends- show my skills. it just puts me through all sort of emotions in one sitting. 3. Horizon Zero Down: fantastically well-made game with almost no weak points. 4. MGS V Phantom Pain: the fact that this game can be played in the way you prefer is amazing. you can stealth, you can go gun blazing. it is all up to you. 5. FFVII Remake: cant say it better than what you said in the video. 6. Persona 5 7. This is tough as I am yet to start red dead 2 that has high praises from everybody
@@Ricardo-gf7ts pretty sure MP will be from the UK as am I and it certainly is nappies. It's also bonnet not hood on a car and tomarto not tomayto, but i don't think there's any need to call the whole thing off.
PS4 was my first full-fledged Sony console, having only owned a PSP before this which was my childhood bestfriend (even a lover). And I think it's safe to say my time on PS4 has been even more memorable! And here are the 7 games that made it happen - 1) Nier:Automata, 2) Final Fantasy Games (15/7Remake but also 10,12 and Type-0), 3) Spider-Man, 4) God of War, 5) Red Dead Redemption 2, 6) Yakuza Games and lastly my favorite VR game -7) Astrobot!
When my dad bought his ps4 it came with the Witcher 3 and he played it for like 30 minutes and he said he didn’t like it and he sold it in the next day
@@Ricardo-gf7ts I understand, its a game that requires time to put into it to understand it. I'm talking as a gamer, and I've played more that 200 games in my lifetime. And this game was something truly special for me.
I don’t think it can be considered the greatest game ever created by a long shot. Best of this generation, maybe, but even that’s debatable. But absolutely not the best game ever. I’d say Deus Ex, not only due to it’s impact on gaming as a whole, but as well as the fact that it has aged so well that even a modern gamer who never played it when it first released will figure out how to play within minutes, the fact it’s an easy game to grasp the mechanics of along side the fun gameplay and interesting dialogue leave room for countless replays. It’s really like the Citizen Kane of gaming. It’s not the first game ever, and it’s not the highest selling. But anybody that’s played it will tell you it’s amazing.
@@NotHarpoGroucho I understand what are you saying here, but the witcher 3 revolutionised the rpg genre. Its not just an amazing game, but it changed the way people see RPG's and games in general, they set the bar too high for the gaming industry to handle. I can give you some examples. Look at Assassin's creed origins and odyssey, two great games and the biggest inspiration they had was the witcher 3, you can even understand that (i have platinum for both games). Greed fall is another example as well. It may not be your cup of tea, but as I said before the witcher 3 set the bar way to high.
Persona 5, God of War, HZD and quite possibly Ghost of Tsushima when it's all said and done. Not including Rockstar titles since they're 3rd party titles. Jk. Witcher 3 is King.
In no particular order: FF7 Remake, Firewatch, Spider Man, Persona 5 (Royal), Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Final Fantasy XV & Horizon Zero Dawn. Kinda surprised Rob didn't have Kingdom Hearts 3 on this list.
You missed the part about "Personally Defined The Generation". This is a list about games that defined the generation for Rob himself...not the generation as a whole.
Hearing you talk about gaming pre and post parenthood just let that cold water bucket fall down on me since I'm about to become a parent myself hopefully in about 3 weeks lol
i only started the witcher this month and already have around 140hours sunk in and about to finish my second playthrough and plat the game, i havent been hooked on a game like this in a long time. one positive of quarentine right here
Rob, i don't know if you've played it or not but you should play The Beginners Guide. It's made by the people who made the Stanley Parable and only takes 2 hours to complete. it is a fantastic game
For me games that defined this gaming gen were: -Witcher 3 -Red dead redemption 2 -Battlefield 1 -Rainbow Six Siege Ori and the Will of the Wisps -Star Wars Battlefront 2 (for bad reasons) -Cities Skylines
As a parent...toddler daughter as well...i always want to invest time in my games but after work and parenting, by the time u sit to play I am so tired sometimes I fall asleep on the game..lol. so I have to chip away at games like you said...i can relate
Glad you brought up the fact that Witcher 3 truly is one of the rare games where you can actually play for 30 minutes and feel the progress. One, two side quests, and off you are to your RL. Amazing game.
Thank you, Rob. You and your Friday features have been my only constant and I’ve been with you through my single, married and now, fatherhood years. Always looking forward to your videos. From one gaming dad to another - cheers and love from Singapore.
Great list Rob! I only have 1 addition. MGS 5. Why you ask? I'll never forget stepping out into that open world on horseback and knowing I could go anywhere and do anything with Snake. Nothing like open world stealth tactical espionage.
Zelda BOTW isn't a PS4 game. As someone who refuses to pay double the msrp and can't find a switch for the regular price, I wish it was, but, it's not.
7 PS4 games that I just loved and defined the generation for me are: Bloodborne Nier: Automata God of War RDR2 Spider-Man Resident Evil 2 Remake The Witcher 3
I just put Horizon, God Of War, The Witcher 3 into my cart. It's $40. Should I Buy them? It sounds like an epic lineup.
Dew It. All three are INCREDIBLE and getting them all at $40 is an amazing deal
Buying 3 of the best games on PS4, for only $40. Why wouldn't you buy them?
I bought HZD three days ago and I regret nothing
Sure, That's the perfect quarantine pack 😁
You're going to have an epic time!! If I could make a suggestion though... I'd start shortest playtime to longest: God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Witcher 3. Each one will be a different experience, the only downside is that you'll never get to play them again for the first time...
God of War pulled me through a tough time, Persona 5 made me love turn base combat with its stylingshness, Horizon Zero Dawn, Witcher 3 and FF7R just blew me away.
Persona 5s music is unmatchable loved it could jam all day
What Hojo implied he wanted to breed Aerith and how he wanted Sephiroth to do so truley hit me in the gut
Persona 5 is a game that if was a nintendo exclusive the sales would fly through l the sky. I can't shake the feeling that although it is known as a brilliant game it kinda goes over the head of many ps4 users and fans.

3. Horizon Zero Down: fantastically well-made game with almost no weak points.
4. MGS V Phantom Pain: the fact that this game can be played in the way you prefer is amazing. you can stealth, you can go gun blazing. it is all up to you.
5. FFVII Remake: cant say it better than what you said in the video.
6. Persona 5
7. This is tough as I am yet to start red dead 2 that has high praises from everybody
Great list :)
who else is very excited for ps5
very VERY!
Who else feels the emptiness because Rob can no longer bully Dave 🤧
Why not? Did Dave leave?
No.
Social distancing.
4:06 Nappies Rob... they're nappies.
Pretty sure they're called diapers my guy
M P where are u from?
@@Ricardo-gf7ts pretty sure MP will be from the UK as am I and it certainly is nappies. It's also bonnet not hood on a car and tomarto not tomayto, but i don't think there's any need to call the whole thing off.
oh Rob is also from the UK whichis why it's nappies.
Spider-Man PS4 showed me how fun and smooth traversal in a game could be.
As long as Horizon Zero Dawn is on the list I'm good.
PS4 was my first full-fledged Sony console, having only owned a PSP before this which was my childhood bestfriend (even a lover). And I think it's safe to say my time on PS4 has been even more memorable! And here are the 7 games that made it happen - 1) Nier:Automata, 2) Final Fantasy Games (15/7Remake but also 10,12 and Type-0), 3) Spider-Man, 4) God of War, 5) Red Dead Redemption 2, 6) Yakuza Games and lastly my favorite VR game -7) Astrobot!
The Witcher 3 to this day in 2020 is still the best game ever created. It's something even non gamers should experience.
Eh, I'd disagree. But it's personal anyway
When my dad bought his ps4 it came with the Witcher 3 and he played it for like 30 minutes and he said he didn’t like it and he sold it in the next day
@@Ricardo-gf7ts I understand, its a game that requires time to put into it to understand it. I'm talking as a gamer, and I've played more that 200 games in my lifetime. And this game was something truly special for me.
I don’t think it can be considered the greatest game ever created by a long shot. Best of this generation, maybe, but even that’s debatable. But absolutely not the best game ever. I’d say Deus Ex, not only due to it’s impact on gaming as a whole, but as well as the fact that it has aged so well that even a modern gamer who never played it when it first released will figure out how to play within minutes, the fact it’s an easy game to grasp the mechanics of along side the fun gameplay and interesting dialogue leave room for countless replays. It’s really like the Citizen Kane of gaming. It’s not the first game ever, and it’s not the highest selling. But anybody that’s played it will tell you it’s amazing.
@@NotHarpoGroucho I understand what are you saying here, but the witcher 3 revolutionised the rpg genre. Its not just an amazing game, but it changed the way people see RPG's and games in general, they set the bar too high for the gaming industry to handle. I can give you some examples. Look at Assassin's creed origins and odyssey, two great games and the biggest inspiration they had was the witcher 3, you can even understand that (i have platinum for both games). Greed fall is another example as well. It may not be your cup of tea, but as I said before the witcher 3 set the bar way to high.
1.RDR2
2.RDR1
3.TLOU1
4.TLOU2
5.GTA 5
Persona 5, God of War, HZD and quite possibly Ghost of Tsushima when it's all said and done. Not including Rockstar titles since they're 3rd party titles.
Jk. Witcher 3 is King.
I personally enjoy HZD more than The Witcher 3
In no particular order: FF7 Remake, Firewatch, Spider Man, Persona 5 (Royal), Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Final Fantasy XV & Horizon Zero Dawn.
Kinda surprised Rob didn't have Kingdom Hearts 3 on this list.
Witcher 3 is the game of the generation. I don't think thats a controversial thing to say. For me personally, Persona 5 is very close behind.
Tom Barber absolutely. The Witcher 3 is not me favorite game but it is the best
@@Sparkball same here. Not my favourite but objectively very very good.
Yeah that’s definitely a valid opinion. I might be biased because it’s pretty much my favourite game but still.
Uncharted 4, God of War, and the holy trinity of JRPGs Persona 5, Dragon Quest XI, and Trails of Cold Steel 3.....
FF7R is definitely my favorite. But being able to share the journey of GOW with both my wife and my son was nothing short of magical as well.
You mean wife and BOY!*
Gta5 will forever be one of my favorites
"Define the generation" puts Destiny I'm joking btw to each their own
You missed the part about "Personally Defined The Generation". This is a list about games that defined the generation for Rob himself...not the generation as a whole.
Destiny is and was amazing
literally one of the greatest games ever made? ye
Sneaky destiny had lots of issues I don’t think it’s that good but it was still pretty fun
@@sneaky5141 ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͠°)
After hearing you gush about Edith Finch, I bought it immediately. No regrets
I'm so happy our PC friends can experience Horizon. Such a wonderful game.
Destiny 1 will always hold a special place im my heart
Same
Hearing you talk about gaming pre and post parenthood just let that cold water bucket fall down on me since I'm about to become a parent myself hopefully in about 3 weeks lol
Congrats
Congrats
i only started the witcher this month and already have around 140hours sunk in and about to finish my second playthrough and plat the game, i havent been hooked on a game like this in a long time. one positive of quarentine right here
Uncharted 4 could easily replace any of these imo
Rob, i don't know if you've played it or not but you should play The Beginners Guide. It's made by the people who made the Stanley Parable and only takes 2 hours to complete. it is a fantastic game
Resident evil 7 on psvr,. You can smell the rot of the house.
You may need to get your headset checked out man. If it’s emitting rotting smells something maybe wrong
For me games that defined this gaming gen were:
-Witcher 3
-Red dead redemption 2
-Battlefield 1
-Rainbow Six Siege
Ori and the Will of the Wisps
-Star Wars Battlefront 2 (for bad reasons)
-Cities Skylines
Battlefront 2 is arguably one of the best ever Star Wars games now.
I didn't expect Edith Finch, but I find myself with no arguments against it so fair enough.
Somehow Read Dead Redemption 2 is not on this list despite the fact that still after 2 years not a single game is more detailed than that game.
As a parent...toddler daughter as well...i always want to invest time in my games but after work and parenting, by the time u sit to play I am so tired sometimes I fall asleep on the game..lol. so I have to chip away at games like you said...i can relate
1. God of War
2. Persona 5
3. Spider Man
4. Final fantasy XIV
5. Final fantasy VII remake
6. Bloodborne
7. Horizon Zero Dawn
Glad you brought up the fact that Witcher 3 truly is one of the rare games where you can actually play for 30 minutes and feel the progress. One, two side quests, and off you are to your RL. Amazing game.
Rob, I've seen you score that rocket league goal at least five times in Friday features now.
We're all proud of you. You can retire that clip now
Thank you, Rob. You and your Friday features have been my only constant and I’ve been with you through my single, married and now, fatherhood years. Always looking forward to your videos. From one gaming dad to another - cheers and love from Singapore.
Great list Rob! I only have 1 addition. MGS 5. Why you ask? I'll never forget stepping out into that open world on horseback and knowing I could go anywhere and do anything with Snake. Nothing like open world stealth tactical espionage.
Persona 5
Final Fantasy XV
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Detroit: Become Human
The Last Guardian
God of War
Horizon Zero Dawn
The definition of this generation is The Legend of Zelda BoTW, and maybe What Remains of Edith Finch and Overwatch
Zelda BOTW isn't a PS4 game. As someone who refuses to pay double the msrp and can't find a switch for the regular price, I wish it was, but, it's not.
This is why Friday exists.
I hope in the next few years we will see lists like this and ghost of Tsushima will be included
Rob, you should make a Friday feature of 7 game soundtracks that are just too good. It would be interesting but kind of different!
as long as the Nier: Automata soundtrack is included I'm good haha
7 PS4 games that I just loved and defined the generation for me are:
Bloodborne
Nier: Automata
God of War
RDR2
Spider-Man
Resident Evil 2 Remake
The Witcher 3
1. Red Dead Redemption 2
2. The Witcher 3
3. Batman Arkham Knight
4. Bloodborne
5. God of War
6. Horizon Zero Dawn
7. Uncharted 4
