Not had a PlayStation since the OG Xbox was released and have just bought a PS4 on the members market. Console wise I generally play RPG / adventure games so am looking for exclusives that fit the bill (may be tempted by others). It's coming with Uncharted (although not sure if it's the original or not). Can you please give me some recommendations, hopefully can bag a few cheap ones second hand.
 
Grab a month of PS+ on the cheap and add stuff from the PS+ Collection before it's taken down. GoW, Days Gone and Horizon are there, amonv a few other decent games, you'll get a good taste and will be able to decide what's worthwile for you.

Would've given you a 30-day trial code but I used it when I bought the console:/

I think the collection is PS5 only.
 
Had a look through the above and think I'll go with these although Ghosts and GoW may be a bit too fast paced, generally not a fan of a dodge / parry action games (which ruled out Bloodborne).

Days Gone
Horizon Zero Dawn
Ghost of Tsushima
God of War
Last of Us
Uncharted

Any others I should consider?

Edit
Just seen a load of these at Argos for 12-17 quid as part of the hit collection. Will see how the second hand route goes but at least I have these to fall back on.

Ghosts of Tsushima isn’t too fast paced (it doesn’t really play too much like a souls and is much more forgiving) and you can always pop it on easy. Hated my first go with it…revisited it a year or so later on the ps5, and couldn’t put it down.

I'll give it a go.
 
I'm currently on my first playthrough of Days Gone. Best game I've played in quite a while. Reasonably slow paced for the most part although some of the fights get a bit hectic.
I'm in the minority but I didn't like Spiderman. Button mashing combat and all a bit same same. Most others have loved it though.

Yeah Spiderman doesn't appeal to me at all.

It’s great isn’t it ? Absolutely loved days gone. Gameplay, story, characters etc. the combat felt great too.
 
Yeah Days Gone was great, real shame it doesn't look like we'll be getting a second.

I've double dipped on PC as it can be had for £8ish, it's a great port also.

Uncharted the Nathan Drake Collection came with my PS4 and just found The Last of Us Remastered and Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition on the PS store for 8 quid each. Should keep me busy for a while. I'll keep an eye out for the others on the cheap.
 
Dont buy The Last Of us 2 until you have finished the first as its currently £28 new and was on offer at most places over xmas for £8.50 and will probably come back in the future maybe after the show has finished the first season.

I agree with all the other recommendations especially Days Gone, finished it a few times and just loved it. Bloodbourne - not for me unfortunately too frustratinly difficult for it to be enjoyable.

I will also add:

Ratchet and Clank
Detroit Become Human
Heavy Rain
Until Dawn
Death Stranding - A bit marmite this one.

Thanks, Ratchet and Clank is on sale for 8 quid too so took a punt on that. Detroit Become Human looks interesting.

List is now:

Days Gone
Detroit Become Human
Horizon Zero Dawn
Ghost of Tsushima
God of War
Last of Us
Ratchet & Clank
Uncharted

Plenty of game hours there.
