[IMG]http://imgmr.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Furi-banner-810x300.jpg[/IMG] [B]What is Furi? [/B][quote=The Gamer Bakers Website]Fight your way free in our frenzied all-boss fighter, and discover what’s waiting behind the last gate. Furi is all about the tension of one-on-one fights against deadly adversaries. It’s an intense, ultra-responsive game with a unique mix of fast-paced sword fighting and dual-stick shooting. Each of the formidable guardians —designed by Afro Samurai creator Takashi Okazaki— has a unique and surprising combat style that requires focus and skill to defeat. The high-energy action gets a boost from an explosive soundtrack composed by electro musicians Carpenter Brut, Danger, The Toxic Avenger, Lorn, Scattle, Waveshaper and Kn1ght.[/quote] Basically, Furi is a game for PS4 and PC in which you fight a bunch of different bosses one after the other. The developers wanted to evoke the feelings of passion and adrenaline you get from a long fight, and it shows! Each fight lasts a pretty sizeable amount of time, but they're all varied enough within the fight that it keeps you on your toes. Also, the soundtrack is [I]incredible, [/I]which definitely helps. Also, if you happen to be subscribed to PS+, this game is free for the month of July!

Wow damn this looks fucking cool. Haven't even heard of this and it's already out, that's a nice surprise. Gonna have to check this one out.

I was waiting for this thread. The game is fucking sick. I love the soundtrack. Let me just highlight this: [b]The game is just out and is available [I]for free[/I] on PS+ this month. (You keep it if you keep your PS+ sub)[/b]

I can't get over how cool it feels just to beat any given boss :v:

The game seems kinda short, but from what I've played so far the $25 purchase is really worth it. I wish the OST was cheaper though.

Might actually be my favorite game of the year so far, and there's been a lot of actually good games out this year. Really want to snag the vinyl before they run out.

Love that it's free on PS+, pretty damn fun game. Really like the style

the style and gameplay remind me a little of hyper light drifter

I got this yesterday. Fun as fuck but I still haven't beaten the tutorial.

Just finished the eighth (seventh? It's marked as eight though the practice screen skipped seven) boss [sp]The Burst[/sp] That fight was hard as [B]fuck.[/B] Occasionally you'd be insta-killed because of her sniper insta-locking and firing making it impossible to hide. Her final phase wasn't that bad, did end up taking a life on it though because of the clusterfuck of waves/bullets.

To play it on PC, do you have to use a 360 controller or emulate one or does it instantly recognize DS4 like Rocket League and SOMA?

[QUOTE=Dr.C;50675033]To play it on PC, do you have to use a 360 controller or emulate one or does it instantly recognize DS4 like Rocket League and SOMA?[/QUOTE] I think you have to emulate it, the controls in-game using DS4 are all XBox controls. I could be wrong and it's only displaying those because I'm emulating it, but I don't think so.

Holy fuck I just bought this and oh my god the game is fun even on the first boss

First boss after the tutorial's final phases are insane

And yeah, her final phase got me once too just because of the bullet overload :v:

This game is amazing. Makes me wish there was a similar game but with multiplayer vs mode.

How is the replayability of this game? I do intend to some day get it but I'm currently focusing on other games.

This game has really pretty scenes between the boss fights, loving it so far.

[QUOTE=Dr.C;50675415]How is the replayability of this game? I do intend to some day get it but I'm currently focusing on other games.[/QUOTE] There are 3 possible endings, and after beating the game once you unlock a harder difficulty setting where the bosses have a bunch of new attacks, as well as a speedrun mode. That's all there is to keep you coming back as far as I'm aware though.

Made it to boss three before dying for the first time. Loving this so far. Tho i've had this weird thing happen twice so far. For the 2nd boss, it went to close up mode. She hit me, then i just sorta ran in and tried a normal slash combo. and for some reason the last hit took off all her remaining health even tho it was just a normal slash and the close up mode just started. I've no idea why that happened lol but ok I'll take it.

[sp]i was let down on the final jailer boss fight because how easy it was, but then the real boss fight after the credits just kicked me in the dick repeatedly because it turned into a true bullet hell shooter[/sp] ending spoilers. overall i love the soundtrack and the art was beautiful.

[QUOTE=Dr.C;50675415]How is the replayability of this game? I do intend to some day get it but I'm currently focusing on other games.[/QUOTE] i think it's replayability is great if you're into optimizing your fights and stuff like that. going for the best time, no hits, etc. so far i'm only on boss three but i've tried to do boss one as fast as i can like 5 times now. (best i've gotten is like ~4:30).

[QUOTE=Dr.C;50675415]How is the replayability of this game? I do intend to some day get it but I'm currently focusing on other games.[/QUOTE] its short but it adds in hard mode that is a lot less forgiving with new patterns and moves, and speedrun mode that counts your hits and KOs while keeping your time. It also skips the walking segments to make it much faster.

It's a very short game (2-3 hours tops) but it's extremely satisfying to play. Can't tell you how many times I died against the 3rd boss, fucking reflecting shots and using my own projectiles against me. The final final boss is also really damn hard. Had to retry at least 4 times. [editline]9th July 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=postal;50675730]Made it to boss three before dying for the first time. Loving this so far.

[editline]9th July 2016[/editline] Eighth boss's song is easily the best one IMO [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ5gtInauiI[/media]

I'm able to just plug in my DS4 and play without any third party software. It even displays DS4 buttons.

This is some rising revengeance bullshit Sold

hyper light drifter: revengeance [t]http://i.imgur.com/nj0LCzZ.jpg[/t] can we take a step back and appreciate how dumb and great these difficulty names are

as a hyper light drifter snob i have to have this game i don't get it. i don't like dark souls at all, but hyper light drifter is my absolute bread and butter this game makes me wish there is a hyper light driver sequel in production
