Lol that's how I felt when I got my ps4 last year. Thought i could just put the disc in and play like the old days.

You can play most games unpatched unless its online only experience, however some games like sports games only have the practice mode on the disc so you need the patch.

Soma's good. Knew some people who had fun with Onrush; game tanked because they charged full price for it, though.

I'd consider Sonic Mania a must for anyone nostalgic about those Genesis Sonic games.
Sonic Mania is basically what I wished the fifth generation of consoles would have been - improving on the strengths of the 16-bit games with beefier hardware allowing sprite work to really shine.

Thanks - I think I can still get it via my coupon, but I noticed that the digital version is $20 anyways, so figured that I can always decide to purchase it later, when I have more time, or when the nostalgia becomes unbearable. I was never super into Sonic, I think for some reason I just didn't play Genesis too much. However, I distinctly remember playing one for Game Gear a lot when I was a kid.
I'm gravitating towards some 16-bit style games. It looks like the PS4 store is having a big sale on older stuff and so forth. I have a note to myself, I think later this weekend I'll grab Hollow Knight, Broforce (looks absurdly hilarious), and Super Meat Boy, and also maybe toss in Battlefield 1 just for kicks. All told it comes out to $20, and I should certainly stop my backlog there for a bit.

I went with a slim when I bought my PS4 (September). I dont have a 4K TV so I wouldnt see the benefit there. Im currently playing God of War, and have had precisely one time where it briefly bogged down in a cutscene in about 25 hours of play. Like literally one framerate dip that lasted 1/2 second. The rest of the game has been smooth sailing.

I played a bit of NieR just to see what it was about. I swear the game was an action game when I watched one highlight of it, but the game put me in some fear at that opening ten or so minutes of action. Lol. I loved whatever I played of it thus far, but I have to beat Last of Us before I can play the game, so been crunching in that game instead. Just got to the shoreline after leaving Pittsburgh.
Not sure where to put this, but it's technically Sony since they own crackle.
Apparently Crackle is merging with Bell Media in Canada and their content will no longer be free. Not the biggest loss since all their movies were run of the mill cable movies I saw a hundred times and the ads were a little too frequent, but still, I'll miss watching it when I dont have netflix.

It is (was) a free Netflix/Hulu type app (Hulu doesn't exist outside the US) that had lots of older movies and tv shows from Sony. Not super old, like late 90s early 2000s. The quality was basic cable with lots of ads. It still exists in America you can look for yourself if you're in the US.
Go after the falling from the sky, low swinging, and running up buildings achievements. I fell in love with the game right there. That and finding Avengers tower.

I finally got around to playing Tetris Effect. (I got it a couple of days after launch, but I haven't had much free time.) The visuals are interesting, but they are pretty distracting. I'm pretty bad at it, but I like it so far.
Just had to reformat my PS4 Pro since it refused to do anything else. f***ing hell... Just so f***ing annoying...

Bought Persona because it was on sale. I don't really like turn based games and haven't really played any jrpgs because of that but so far this game is really good.
I'm a little worried I'm going to get overwhelmed though with all these things I have to remember

P5 is a great game, but I had to take several runs at it before I finished it. The massive stretches without any player freedom really bogged down the flow of the game to me.
