Sheikah Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 Are these the Pro models? Seems like a good deal. https://www.game.co.uk/en/m/flash-sale/one-day-deal/?inStockOnly=false&cm_sp=mobilehome-_-banner3-_-playstationdaysofplay#Page0 No the pro model is a Big Mac. It has three tiers to it.

Aneres11 Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 Some really great prices there. Must resist the urge on Resident Evil games...

Also tempted by Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster, though I've heard conflicting things about it... Edited July 5, 2017 by Julius Caesar
drahkon Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) Bought Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth for the Vita. I remember @Hero-of-Time playing and enjoying it so unless my memory is wrong it was a good purchase Edit: 1 hour in...fuck, this is addictive. Edited July 10, 2017 by drahkon

dwarf Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Eurogamer alerted me to this: Amazon Prime customers can get a PS4 Slim, Overwatch, Crash N.Sane Trilogy and a spare controller for £180 (if you have a friend who's using Prime, maybe ask them, or if you haven't made use of the free trial do that and cancel it) Would have considered this if I hadn't just bought a WiiU to play Zelda Today only. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073K33CPN/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=eurgam-m-21&linkId=64a1b184ac504a0ff69b34352ed914d6
Hero-of-Time Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) Another crazy sale has started on PSN. https://psprices.com/region-gb/discounts/?platform=all&sort=date I'm gonna need some PSN credit.... Edited August 16, 2017 by Hero-of-Time
drahkon Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Hm...Elite Dangerous for 16.99€...Veeeeery tempted. @Fierce_LiNk @DriftKaiser @Cookyman @ArtMediocre @somme Help me out here. Is it worth it? I've bought No Man's Sky recently again which is something I'll keep coming back to in the future. How does Elite Dangerous compare? Can you play this for an hour and still achieve something? Or do you really have to invest time to enjoy it?

From what I can tell, it has a very steep learning curve and lots of things you need to know but the game doesn't tell you most them. @Fierce_LiNk hated it and hasn't touched it again... I would look at some videos first if I were you, as it is completely different from No Man's Sky. 1

Can you play this for an hour and still achieve something? Or do you really have to invest time to enjoy it? If you're already getting your space fix from NMS I wouldn't bother right now. It does indeed have a steep learning curve and although it has a lot of good things about it, I found myself watching numbers the majority of the time as the distances between celestial bodies is more realistic... and space it big. NMS is much more immediate and much easier to jump in and play. With the new patch I also found more things to do in NMS. 1
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I'll try my best not to shit on Elite: Dangerous. But, the truth is, I really dislike it. I don't usually regret spending money on games, but Elite is the first game in a very long time where I regret my purchase. I just didn't find it very fun. I found it too convoluted, too steep in difficult at the start and not very rewarding. One of my friends commented that you need to put loads of hours into it to get something out of the play. It is not a casual experience. But, you're hearing this opinion from someone who dislikes the game immensely. You might really enjoy that experience. I'd recommend watching a few videos of others playing the game to see what it's like. I plan to go back to it one day to give it another crack, because I hate giving up on shit. But, my time is really limited this summer and I'd rather it went on more worthwhile games. 1
drahkon Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) Watched some videos and after reading your posts I won't bother. Looks like No Man's Sky is much more up my alley. Now I'm either going to get Undertale (which isn't on sale sadly, as it just got released) or the Humble Bundle which includes XCOM for Vita and XCOM 2 for PS4 (among other games that I'm not particularly interested in; mostly PS3 games). The bundle costs 17€. Edited August 16, 2017 by drahkon
ArtMediocre Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I would say that if you have VR, you buy it. If you don't, it demands that you play if for ages even for the simplest things. I mean, it's a great game, and I even bought a flight stick for it, but I wouldn't recommend it if you already get your fix from NMS. It's not a game you simply open up and play for an hour. It can take an hour just to get the docking right the first times :p. But if you ever get VR later on, then get the game. Then you can simply boot it up and just sit in awe scoping around the stations. 1

But, the more I played, the more irritated by it that I became. Just certain design choices that are unnecessary and tedious.
Jimbob Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Season 3 of Walking Dead on sale for £9.99 and Guardians for £11.99. That's not a bad price, however i'll hold out until pay day me thinks.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I picked up some PSN credit on my lunch break and had a good look at the sale. I actually ended up buying a couple of games that have been on sale for a few weeks and end tonight. Cosmic Heroine has been on my radar for a while and i'm surprised it's taken me this long to realise it was on sale! Have you ever looked into the game, @S.C.G? The guys who made it said they were heavily influenced by the Phantasy Star games. I also snapped up Full Throttle and Oxen Free. Heard good things about them both, especially the latter.
Happenstance Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I've had that on my Steam wishlist for a while now, might have to pick it up finally.

Shame it's not on the Vita, yet. But I think this is a great game for remote play while watching football. What to buy with the remaining 13€...
Blade Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Gameseek are also doing some cracking deals so far across all platforms.

Can you play this for an hour and still achieve something? Or do you really have to invest time to enjoy it? Ah Elite Dangerous... unlike many on here I really like it. One of the reasons I do though is nostalgia, I played Elite on the C64 for hours and eventually reached the prestigious rank of Elite even that version of Elite was incredibly deep with a huge learning curve but I think we were a bit more hardcore and forgiving then. Yes the new game must seem to many like Bastard Simulator 3000 but to me it was like reacquainting myself with an old friend. One other thing to consider is the sheer amount of support the game is getting and from the sounds of it patch 2.4 is going to be massive with the much anticipated return of the Thargoids. What the hell do I know though, I seem to have a habit of playing games that this community avoids like the plague so make of that what you will.
