I finally know what you meant about the RE2 mods.
You may be talking about... a certain... Claire mod. 
So I got PS4, which Sony exclusives do I need?

You're not wrong, but you're wrong.
Uncharted gameplay isn't the best, except Uncharted 4's combat system, which was really phenomenal. But mostly what makes Uncharted exceptional is the overall experience of adventure. Despite lacking in many gameplay ways, Uncharted is one of the most "playable" series I've every tried. Actually I came to the party way late, and played through the whole franchise one right after another. Honestly I couldn't put them down! I even ran out and bought a PS4 when I ran out of the PS3 entries, largely to continue playing Uncharted games.
I'm a guy who usually loses interest in games pretty quickly, so its very unusual for me to go through 4 games rapid-fire.
Oh I get ya, that's true. They really are good adventure games, don't get me wrong.

Start checking your local thrift stores. PS4 and Xbox One games are popping up there regularly for like $3 each.
This is the time to start building up a nice current gen game collection on the cheap.

The PSN service is proving a good investment, to put it mildly

That's cool if you don't mind having only the digital version. But might not be ideal if you think you may want to go back to playing these games 10 or 15 years from now when there's no telling if the game servers will still be online to D/L games from.

I take your point, but its great way to spot the keepers, to pick up from the second hand bargain bins.

Agreed. I buy digital only when it comes to PC...because I actually want to play games.
But consoles all have hard copies still, so I buy that. I don't trust that the digital libraries will be there in the future.

To be fair, that sort of logic only applies to crazy retro gamers like me who are actually still playing games from 20+ years ago.
I don't think most people will give a toss about PS4 games in 15-20 years.

update: In my humble opinion it's worth getting a PS4 just for Bloodborne, which frankly surpasses Dark Souls 3 in so many ways.

Love that game, loved that boss fight
The art work, set pieces and boss fights are so fun and memorable in that...one of Fromsofts crowning achievements imo.

Update, I'm up to Forbidden woods and snake section, looking at player achievement stats only 3rd of owners/players made this far, which is a crime.
That is a crime. My better half just happened to have me open an early Christmas present tonight. PS4 Pro
Downloading Bloodborne as I type this. I miss this game maybe more than any other...
edit: Sorry for the late reply - completely missed your response.

So does frame rate still tank when you attack mobs of 5 or more at the same time (e.g. the lecture theatre).
I'm up to Wet nurse and just started poking around the Castle and I'm in the last quarter of players that made it this far according to PS trophy stats (i'm making the effort to find and destroy every boss, including the sodding Eileen's hunter encounter in the chapel, which has been the worst so far).
I've also picked old hunters dlc in the sales tried it and decided to get back to this closer to end as the experience was the equivalent of wet kitten stepping in to very heavily populated Rottweilers kennel, it wasn't pretty....
The cathedral hunter is an a-hole
1. I originally played this on the first PS4, never had frame rate issues.
2. Henryk (cathedral hunter) is an ass (had to say that twice
3. The DLC has the best Bloodborne boss battle, hands down, but it takes some work to beat the whole dlc. It's genuinely tough in spots.
4. If you're questing for all the bosses, the chalice dungeons take quite a while to really ramp up, but the loot, the farming and the bosses are insane.
5. Don't miss the very well hidden boss at the very, very end. I stumbled on it purely by accident.
I'm back to the Forbidden Woods already and just can't believe how much fun I still get out of this
edit: Make sure to hit cainhurst as well...for a good time lol. That can be accessed very early on, but it's well hidden.
edit2: Did you find

Today's bosses i've taken out on my first attempt (I may actually be getting the hang of this);
Celestial Emissary (solo'd (but to be honest this was mini boss))
Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos (used the extra character as it was available right next to the boss arena entrance).
Martyr Logarius (solo'd)
I'm gonna head back for the eye beast in Mergo's tower (as I missed the blood rock), then move on to the old hunters dlc, before heading into the dungeons.

I think you already got the hang of it
It's refreshing to see someone else out there who loves this game the way I do. I really think folks who don't finish it are cheating themselves.

Frankly it's nowhere near as evil as people make it out to be, the game leads you by hand most of way, e.g. here's some new armour/clothing, check the specs, tool up accordingly becuase now you know the boss's weakness, this boss arena has two possible NPCs to bring along (oh it's going to be one those sorta bosses).
etc.
Ultimately it's a RPG, follow the bread crumbs.
Also the variety of enemies is fantastic.
I stand by my original opinion, it's a system seller, it's superior to DS3 in a myriad of ways.
& if Sony bring FromSoft back to create an exclusive sequel on the PS5, I will getting a PS5.
I agree with all of this. Fromsoft said there wouldn't be a sequel though, but I'm sure enough $$ could make it happen
Just a thought delirium121 - Nioh is a good bit of fun if you haven't played that yet, and it looks great at 4k in action mode too. The second one is due for release in March I think...
I've gotten back into it to do co-op with my son in law, and am just hooked all over again lol.
