If you pre-ordered a PS4 early enough, or were one of the
die-harders who braved days in the cold to get one, you're probably now faced
with the task of deciding what to play.
It's a conundrum, we know. While the PS4 launch lineup isn't
by any means massive, there's still plenty to choose from.
So to help you out, we've pulled together our top titles for
the PlayStation 4 early adopters. Here are the games you need to go and play
right now.
Resogun
Sony made big promises early on for indie gamers, and it's
delivered beautifully with Resogun. The Defender-style shooter has been one of
the highest-acclaim launch titles for the system so far, loaded with addictive
80s-esque space combat, glorious visuals and a killer soundtrack.
It might not have the epic ambitions of the likes of
Killzone: Shadow Fall, but Resogun brings something slicker and more satisfying
to the table.

"One of the most exciting, lavishly produced twin-stick
shooting in the history of the genre. Geometry Wars finally has a proper
rival."
Flower
PS3 zen hit Flower has drifted over to the PS4 and arrives
in stunning 1080p 60fps. Ok, so it's a game based around guiding petals over
landscapes - but it's Flower's simplicity and brevity that make it so
wonderfully unique.
You can tear through it in no time at all but that would be
missing the point. This is about soaking it all in.
Gamesradar said:
"It may barely qualify as a game in the traditional
sense but Flower's evocative world deserves to be experienced by all."
Killzone: Shadow Fall
Killzone: Shadow Fall is a title that's made for impressing
your friends. The environments - both single player and multiplayer - are
breath-snatchingly stunning, while Guerrilla has made the gameplay varied
enough for enjoyable campaign romp.
It won't go down as one of the PS4's killer titles, but it's
not a bad place to kick things off.

"Shadow Fall doesn't seek to reinvent the FPS, but it
does inject a much-needed infusion of creativity and originality into the
genre"
Lego Marvel Super Heroes
There's really only one word we can use to describe Lego
Marvel Super Heroes: fun. Sheer, silly, pun-fueled fun. The roster is packed
with more Marvel characters than you can throw a big red brick at, and the
typical Lego humour is firing on all cylinders.
Heroes continues the tradition of great Lego games, and
bodes well for Lego: The Hobbit.
Gamesradar said:
"Marvel superheroes in an urban sandbox, flying around
and destroying things as you please? Couple that with truckloads of pieces to
collect and heroes to unlock, and Lego Marvel Super Heroes will serve as a
terrific ally in the fight against boredom. Excelsior!"
Battlefield 4
If you've been holding out on Battlefield 4 until you can
get your hands on a next-gen copy, trust us - it's worth the wait. Battlefield
4 on PS4 is big, bold and hella explosive. Combine those destructible
environment with 64-player battles and you get an experience full of
jaw-dropping moments.
Gamesradar said:
"Multiplayer shooters don't get better than Battlefield
4. Incredible destruction, smart map design, and solid tech combine to produce
a true showcase for PS4 and PC. While solo play still lags behind, it's a big
step up from BF3."
