Hi Guys. I just bought the Uncharted Collection PlayStation this week, and I want to buy like 1-3 games within the next couple months, but I am completely new to PlayStation and have no idea what to get. I am 14 years old, and like Adventure/Action, or Possibly FPS games. Rating Teen would be best although Mature would be fine if its like not extremely inappropriate (my Mother is very strict). So yeah just like use your personal opinion and tell me what you think. I would really appreciate it. Thanks! Leave suggestions below.

(Also just a note. I don't really know how expensive the average PS4 game is at all but anything 90-100$ or lower would be perfect, although if there is a game that you think would be absolutely amazing for me that is over that then still suggest it lol. Thanks in advance!)

It helps when you read the TC's post.

@simplygray take a look at Lara Croft and you may want to subscribe for PS+, you'll get 2 free games every month, it will also let you experience other genres.

Planetside 2

It's free and rated T

Try some of the free-to-plays such as WoT or DCUO

They can be pretty fun while waiting to save up for an AAA

Last of Us Remastered

MGS V

Witcher 3

Batman Arkham Knight

Fallout 4

Destiny Taken King (It's MMO-like so if you've got friends or willing to find some to play and spend lots of hours)

I think I would consider Witcher 3 extremely inappropriate

I think a strict parent might also restrict you from playing a game like The Last of Us, but it really is one of the best games ever made. Same for The Witcher 3, great game but doubt your mom would allow it.

Uncharted 4 will be out in May, make sure you save some money for that. Same for Mirrors Edge: Catalyst. New Ratchet & Clank will be out soon as well.

I agree with the Infamous: Second Son suggestion too, loved that game.

Maybe Wolfenstein: The New Order, but it's rated M and has a fair amount of violence.

If you're in the US, games typically cost $60, though there are ways to save money as well(buy used, or join GCU @ Best Buy).

Hi. I suggest getting a ps plus subscription if you like playing online competitively and you also will get free games each month. A great fps for anyone that your mom will let you buy is Plants vs Zombie: Garden Warfare (rated E10). You absolutely need a plus sub for it but it is really cheap right now. The second one only require plus for online but you could still play offline, and its on sale for $40 at best buy (if you are in US). Not sure if you like platformers or fighters but you may like Little Big Planet 3 (rated E) and Injustice (DC superheros fighting game rated teen) which are really cheap too (like $10-$20). Check out Steam World Dig, Child of Light, and Guacamelee too on the ps store which are also cheap.

The great thing about coming in now is that there are a lot of cheap games in the back library. There's no need for you to buy a new title if you are short on money and you will be able to get more for your mom's money. Go to the review tabs up top and search by ps4 games if you want to learn some more games that we haven't thought about.

The Witcher 3 is a great game but it contains so-called "explicit content". The Last of Us raises tough themes though does not show some kind of nudity or something like this. Blood and cruelty present. And the F-word, of course. Exclude Hotline Miami (both). And I'd be careful with Until Dawn. And get headset. Pay attention to ESRB rating.

@wilmar: Playing w/ a headset is a new experience for a gamer. After picking one up, I haven't been able to play a game w/out having a headset on. Definite must for today's gaming.

If you like anime and don't mind turn based:

Loading Video...

Other:

Loading Video...
Loading Video...
Loading Video...

(dark souls 2 is rated 16+, which might work)

Loading Video...

Final Fantasy X/X2 are two games that are pretty much ps2 games remastered for the ps4, they both have tons of gameplay and are great turn based games however, but you'll have to deal with some notquite up to par graphics:

Loading Video...
Loading Video...

There are a lot more great games coming out that are good for your age but a lot of amazing games are rated m nowadays so my list is limited, that said, I also had to keep away from indies since I know if if you'll like games like apotheon and transistor.

All in all, there are a lot of good games coming this year though, Ionly listed some that are out,but there are a good 20 quality exclusives for ps4 this year + another 20 quality multiplats on the ps4

Welcome to next gen gaming dude. I know you said T games and some M games, So I will try to tailor my response for your interest.

1. Get PS Plus. You now NEED the membership to play ANY multiplayer online. You get 2 free games every month, but don't get too hopeful for anything too great. The past year of freebies have been a rollercoaster of really bad to decent. However others may like it. I'm not speaking for everyone. (Regardless, I don't want you to think your getting Killzone, or AC4, or Infamous for free, and then you sign on to see something less desired.)

2. The Games. I will add the approx prices, (USD).

Infamous Second Son - 20

Knack - 15, 20

Rayman Legends - 20, 25 (AMAZING ART DIRECTION)

Last of Us Remastered (I know you said only certain M games, but this game and Street Fighter V is the reason I even got a ps4 lol).

Injustice: Gods Among Us - 15, 20.

Batman Arkham Knight - 25, 30. ( Another M game, but its Batman. and easily my favorite game of 2015.)

Guilty Gear Xrd - 25. 30. (Guilty Gear Revelator, the sequel will be out soon. just a heads up)

Street Fighter V - 50, 60. (The sole reason I got a ps4. My only gripe is the design of certain characters. They sort of took the :"anime" route if you know what I mean. It may be akward to explain to a strict parent. Regardless, its street fighter and its my main game for now).

Destiny - Original Game 15, 20. Taken King Edition 40.

Ratchet and Clank - 40 *Just released today* Looks hella fun and beautiful.

If your into RPGs, Final Fantasy X / X2 HD. Easily my 2nd favorite rpg of all time. LOTS and LOTS of hours of content.

Hope I somewhat helped, these are just the ones I can name off the top of my head. Enjoy your Playstation and once again welcome to the next gen sir.

I didn't see Rocket League on the list, so I'll go ahead and add it. It's a digital download from the Playstation store. Great game to play with friends and can be easily played for hours and hours.

If you like racing against the clock, Trackmania Turbo is a great game - it costs around $50.00 new.

If you like golf, The Golf Club is great (much better than the PGA game) and you can find it new for under $30.00.

Get yourself a copy of Rocket League, and BloodBorne. Prioritize Rocket League though. It is by far the best game on PS4.

And get a PS+ subscription. Sony gives out two indie games a month on the PS4 if you subscribe to it.

Tearaway Unfolded is excellent and only $20.

Ratchet & Clank is also excellent at $40.

I'd pick up Ratchet & Clank. I'm a 20 something year old and close to completing it. It's fantastic.

I honestly don't know what to tell you, getting a game like MGSV on PS4 certainly looks better but you would get a free mp on PS3, so the PS3 experience is simply closer to a full gaming experience. Mad Max et al are all playable and damn good on the PS3 too. We will have to wait for the real PS4 games later in the year before you really finance the system.
