I don't get headaches but get what you mean about struggling with console games after high frame rate PC games, so much so that I'm seriously thinking about getting a Pro as the thought of 30fps really bothers me.
Horizon: Zero Dawn [PS4]

I want this but going to wait for a price drop as I have so many games to start let alone finish! One other thing, why Robot Dinosaurs? It would have been so much cooler with real Dinosaurs.

Because it has to do with the story???
that's why.Something about this really doesn't captivate me. Visually stunning game but I've got too much on my plate with Nioh and the Switch launch.
Strong female protagonist, open world, hunting, post apocalyptic, robots... it's like they filled a hat with some of the more popular video game cliches, pulled a handful out and hey presto there's your game.
Everytime I see the robot dinosaurs in this I'm reminded of those Roboraptor toys from a few years back.

It's a "story" they could have told it differently and had real Dino's instead of Robots
Sorry I just love Dinosaurs!

Then it would be a different story and a different game.

The premise is a bit odd with the robot's. We have these robotic animals wandering around the world, just like actual wild animals would. Then we have the humans scurrying around living what looks to be a caveman like tribal existence. You'd have thought, having a sentient, critical minded, opposing thumb existence, these humans would have exploited the robot's a long time ago and living a more advanced life.
I'm not going to dwell on the realism though. Otherwise what would be the point of fantasy story telling?

Grabbed some PSN codes off cdkeys with the 5% discount, game cost me £43 for the digital version
That's a fairly good price for digital, I have a physical preorder at £44.
A little tempted to cancel, and go digital.

The problem I have now is that I don't want to play all these new games without having a PS4 Pro + HDR 4K TV.
Same here
Im seriously tempted to get the ks7000 and a PS4 pro. Ive got my sound system ready for 4k passthrough just need the TV and Pro.

The whole point of the game is to find out why the robots are there, what happened to humanity and why humans are living the way they are.
Caporegime
Yeah, that's the hook for me - who is building/maintaining these robots in those underground areas and why...
*Spoiler alert*
The apocalypse happens with only a handful of humans surviving the nuclear fallout. The residual radiation reactivates the hundreds of thousands of Roboraptors buried deep in landfill sites beneath the Earth.
Big plot twist is that you are a decendant of the guy who invented the Roboraptor and now you have to take them down so humanity can thrive again.

Dude, you should have spoiler tagged that^. If it's true then you've messed up a good amount of the story.

Thank the maker I managed to stop myself after reading the second word.
Did anyone legit take this seriously, it quite clearly isn't a spoiler? I even capped it off with a fairly well known video game meme.
Don't kill me if the story is similar, I just cooked it up off the top of my head and threw some Roboraptors in.
