The playstation 4 has a lot to offer. With the Pro version and the PSVR system, this plateform gives you both Playstation exclusive games, neo-retro titles, VR and all this with true physical media (no internet required to play). Not to mention GoldHen which allows for some enhancement patches !
This is my personal games selection, in which I try to avoid games available on PC unless they are “neo-retro” style and a lot cheaper on PS4 with physical support.
This page may be updated from time to time.
Meaning of the columns :
- VR : tells whether the game require or is compatible with VR
- Controls: tells what kind of controler the game supports
- Install: indicates the required space to install the game
- Install: tells whether the game has no physical version
- Pro Enhanced: tells whether the game is better on the PS4 Pro and why
- Golhen Patch: tells whether the game has unofficial patch for better performances
