Got one at Costco last wednesday they had 4 left and it was 189.00 which seemed like a no brainer. I haven't played video games in years. Hooked it up and am currently flailing around on Last of Us, just trying to learn basic controls and such. WHat other games, add-ons etc are a "must" or mostly recommended. I have COD WWII but havent opened it yet.
What other games and ad-ons really take advantage of all the PS4 has to offer. Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a rehash post

What type of games do you normally like? If you're enjoying Last of Us, then you'd probably like Uncharted 4. Lots to recommend but depends on your preferences.

Return WW2 before you open it. It's not good. Trade it in for assasins creed origins or something like that

Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 are the best PS4 games but are extremely demanding, especially for somebody who hasn't been gaming. I'll throw Nioh in there as well.

Witcher 3 is a great game and not that demanding.

I prefer games that don't involve TOO much thinking. I enjoy war games as well which is why I picked up CODww2
Loving the story of Last of Us so far. Have heard Uncharted and Witcher are both good games
Thanks for the recommendations ya'll

If you like war games, then also consider Battlefield 1, Wolfenstein series (there are 3 games on PS4, based on alternative WW2), Rise of the Tomb Raider, Horizon, and the Shadow of Mordor/War games.

An outside of the box suggestion would be Valkyria Chronicles. It also set in an alternative WW2 timeline. It's a strategy RPG with a very pretty art style (looks like a moving canvas), but might be too niche. I also really like Bloodborne, but not sure how much someone getting back into gaming would like it. It's still an excellent game.

Hope you enjoy your console.

Don't listen to these clowns. WW2 is fun, if you like FPS games.

I just picked up Assassins Creed Origins and it’s been fun so far. Not too demanding but can be if you run and gun

The game is not that bad. It's a fun FPS to goof around in if you're just looking to have some fun. Especially if you know others who can play with you.

Also a good game.
