Shorty Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 That's a great offering. The Bioshock games are so brilliant, I envy anyone getting to play them for the first time. 2 1

I remember starting the first one ages ago and stopping it at a jumpscare. I don't know if it was an intentional one but it made me nope out of the game I always wanna go back, because the story is apparently amazing. If it's anywhere near the quality of Bioshock Infinite's plot then I really need to get over my fear of horror games
Shorty Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I wouldn't even consider Bioshock that much of a "jumpscare" type game. It definitely has that creepy alone-in-the-dark vibe but once you power yourself up a bit there's not too much to fear. Definitely give it another try because the atmosphere and story is well worth it. I say this as someone with absolutely 0% chance of playing jumpy horror games like Amnesia etc.
drahkon Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 I've come so close to buying Shadow of the Colossus many times. Glad I held off Sonic Forces...meh
Jimbob Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 Shadow of the Colossus an excellent choice, if you've not played it then play it. Sonic Forces, i'll give it a go. There's 2 pieces of free DLC out for this if anyone is interested.
Aneres11 Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 Sonic Forces is great. I really enjoyed it and loved getting the Platinum on it. It was a bit of a grind fest to Platinum, but at the same time kind of enjoyable. I loved that game! Soundtrack is incredible. 1

I loved it when I played it on the Switch and getting this as part of the PS+monthly games is win for me. Good to see the platinum is enjoyable, even if a little grindy. 1 1

Shorty Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I bought SotC a while ago when it was on offer, it never really clicked for me. I think it was probably a real product of its era, much like Ico, that doesn't necessarily stack up as well now that we're less awed by sheer immense scale. That said, I'm sure it will still tick the box for a lot of people. 1

There's a quiet sadness and moral ambiguity to it that I've not really come across since. Everything from the soundtrack (and lack of at times) to the open, empty level design just added to the overall mood. I never really got on with Ico or Last Guardian, but SotC is one of my favourite games. Totally get why it wouldn't appeal to some people though. It can be an acquired taste at times.

I’m excited as it’s one of those games I’ve always wanted to experience. With my current backlog of games it would be good to know if it’s likely to consume hours of my time so I can plan whether to play it now or wait until I have enough time to fully enjoy it.

It's around 10 hours long on a first play through of the game. 1

I wouldn't say it was overly long, but not super short either. I haven't played it in a while, but I'd say maybe 6-8 hours or so. I think you'll know in an hour or two if you want to carry on though if you wanted to give it a try. 1
drahkon Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 CoD: WWII is a good FPS. Nothing more nothing less. If you're up for one, you can't go wrong with this.
Will Posted June 29, 2020 Posted June 29, 2020 I suppose that’s a nice little treat but I can’t say I’m too fussed by that selection of titles. 2
Sheikah Posted June 29, 2020 Posted June 29, 2020 Extremely disappointing given that it's their 10 year anniversary offering. I feel like the extra game is to offset the disappointment people will have about getting NBA, but they've spun it to make it seem like they're giving your more than normal. Would have been nicer for them to give us the more recent Shadow of the Tomb Raider. While Rise is great, it's been knocking around for ages and I'm sure a lot of people who would be interested like myself have played it by now.
