Headliners
Transistor | Original Price: $14.99 | Released: 2014 | PS4
Explore the city of Cloudbank as heroine Red as she wields the mysterious sword Transistor. Mixing an absolutely gorgeous art-style with SuperGiant’s trademark isometric prospective and epic soundtrack this game will blow you away. If deep combat is your thing look no further than Transistor’s element mixing mechanic which gives you a wide variety of combat styles. As an added plus Transistor makes use of the Dualshock 4’s light bar.

Thief | Original Price: $59.99 | Released: 2014 | PS3 (Unknown if PS4 Cross-Buy)
If stealth is more your strong suit you might want to check out Eidos Montreal’s reimagining of the Thief series on your PlayStation 3. Each level has a variety of different routes for players to guide Garrett on his quest to steal from the rich. Upon its release Thief was met with mixed reviews hovering in the 7.0 range. We also don’t know if Sony will extend Thief to PS4 players as of right now the PlayStation blog only lists the game for PS3.
