Well, Guacamelee on PS3 was unbelievably awesome, and I'm planning on getting the PS4 version when I get my PS4. Since it has a few extras, ad a different trophy list because I'm that kind of guy. So get Guacamelee if you haven't already, it is unbelievably awesome.2014-08-06 18:41:00

Fez is free on PS4, PS3, and Vita. It's also pretty good.2014-08-06 19:26:00

I will second Guacamelee. That is one of my favorite games of all time.

Steam World Dig is a lot of fun.

Not an indie, but Valiant Hearts: the Great War is one of the most interesting games I have played in years.

If you like local co-op SportsFriends and TowerFall are amazing.

Velocity 2X is coming up soon and Rogue Legacy just came out. Hard but much fun.

I thought Stick It To The Man was good. Kinda has a similar art style to LBP and has a funny story-line. It's a 2.5D platformer. Worth checking out.2014-08-07 11:06:00

Likewise. Can you get the PS4 upgrade at a discount from the US store because you own the PS3 version, like we can in the good ol' EU?

I will agree with the others on Fez, it's very good. Likewise with Stick it to the Man. Plus you could always get Flower. If you had it on PS3 you can get it for free. And if you didn't have it on PS3 you should definitely give it a go on PS4?

I've heard Transistor is good, but it doesn't look like my type of game. Has anyone played Contrast (the PS4 indie, not the unrelated awesome LBP2 level created by the extremely talented creator alistair26)?

There's quite a few good indie games to play on PS4.
I highly recommend
Transistor - Pretty short game, but with stunning art and lovely music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTik6sYT_BE

FEZ - Simply lovely and it's free.. so why not? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfpKTclOnfI

Don't Starve - Survival game. Time consuming, and not a game for everyone, but I personally love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngqnayEy_7Y

Outlast - If you're up to horror games.. that's a good shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F80Wv66GYSs

The Swapper - Lovely puzzle game. Worth a shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-hnhkrlqu0

OddWorld - New 'n' tasty: Fun platformer.. yet can be a bit frustrating. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZknADLA8lQ

Resogun - If you ever got to play Super Stardust on ps3 and liked it.. well you'll love this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNIsKC1YDYo


I like them all, but it also depends on what you like.. so it'd be good to look for a trailer, info or preview before making a decision.

There's also an upcoming indie game which looks very interesting which I believe it's already on the Vita, but it's called Hohokum.

Thing is with PS4 indie games.... they're all gonna be free on PS+ at some point, so why bother paying for them?

What games have been free on PS+ so far in the EU (of the games mentioned in this thread so far)? The ones I know are:

Contrast - ?
Resogun
Stick it to the Man
Outlast
Fez

I own SittM, and Fez. Resogun doesn't interest me, and Outlast is far too scary for my liking.

It's a good game, but it requires patience. If you like exploring, looking for items to survive, craft items and stuff like that.. well you'll love it.

I'd say it's not worth spending money on but look up some gameplay and see what you think.
