Here is a story that just happened to me this afternoon...
>Live in the Midwest, shopping at Target
>a woman asks me what games I thinks her 26 year old son would like
>just bought him a PS4 for his birthday, wants to get him a game, but wants to surprise him by showing him the game first, then the system
>she's looking at Assassin's Creed Unity
>try to convince her to buy Bloodborne
>leave after giving her my opinion
Anon, if you are getting a PS4 soon, I really hope she went with my recommendation. If not, I am so sorry. Also, if it were you, what game would you have recommended?
Why would you possibly post this here?

How much does Target charge for Assassin's Creed Unity? My guess is that if it is anything like Amazon, she was looking at the price rather than the quality of the game.
That kid will be overjoyed that he's receiving a PS4, but my goodness, Unity's 50GB filesize won't last long on his PS4.

Fuck off, faggot. Not everyone likes Bloodborne.

I thought it would be interesting if the guy getting a PS4 also browses 4chan, and would from that point know the story of how he got whichever game. Also, I am interested in what other people would have recommended.

Should've told her not to shop for games at Target. There are much cheaper alternatives

I agree that everyone doesn't like Bloodborne, but she said he seemed to like Dark Souls, and since you can only get Bloodborne on PS4, I told her that there was no way he could have played it before. It was also only $20, which is why she seemed interested in Assassin's Creed Unity as well.

I would've recommended Alien: Isolation, MGS V: GZ, and Watch_Dogs (it's been patched and is very cheap now, autists). If he hadn't played Sleeping Dogs last gen, then that too.

What a manchild, asking his mommy to buy him video games.

Maybe it was his birthday, or maybe his mom just wanted to get him a gift.
I bet your mom is shit.

Should have recommended her call of doodie and imagine him sperg out.

Sheesh, I didn't know about the 50GB required hard drive space. I just knew that the game had luke warm reviews. In any case, I think you were right about the pricing issue. She was looking at other games, but was worried what would happen if her son hated a game that was $60.
>>340552404
Well. I take it back, then.You seem to have pretty good taste, judging from your pics
>>340552404
>she said he seemed to like Dark Souls
Because all mothers know about the Souls series enough to remember it and tell it to complete strangers

It was his birthday, she was getting them as a surprise, he had no idea that he was about to get anything. She seemed super cool, like she actually cared about getting him something decent instead of just some random $10 piece of shovel ware. She also seemed to have an idea of what he already liked, to some extent.

>not taking a genuine interest in your offspring's hobbies
Enjoy raising drug addicted sluts for black cock

I would've recommended getting a WiiU where there's a choice in games
>>340552424
Those seem like good recommendations. My main concern was that there was a chance he had at least a decent gaming PC and might have some games on PC as well, and I was just trying to make sure it was something he could have never played before.

I actually enjoy the Wii U as well, but she already had the PS4, and just needed a game to go with it. Also, judging from the other games she had stated, there was a good chance the Wii U might not have been his cup of tea.
