Anyone played Slain: Back from Hell? How is it on PS4? It´s only 4.5 bucks.

Wasteland 2 for 15 bucks is tempting too... and also the other games from the digital sale already on basket! Damn sony!!!

I really liked Slain. It's mechanically sound which is big for me for 2d action games. Feels pretty good. There's some questionable and cheap level designs and some frustrating check point placements, I haven't beat it yet but I think it's an interesting enough game, and the pixel work is excellent, especially for $5.

Rather so-so sale, but I might snag Day of the Tentacle for $3. Haven't played that since it came out on PC in the 90's.

The Order on sale again for the millionth time and I still ain't buying it. :p

I've always wanted to give wasteland 2 a shot but remember it was riddled with bugs and crashes. Does anyone have any impressions of the PS4 version in today's state?

Mass Effect: Andromada is now down to 29.99 I think I might just wait for E.A. To pay me to play it... yet poor lonely Odin Sphere still isn't on sale. So beautiful.. so pricey. Hopefully it will hit a sale before 13 Sentinels comes out,

Is Saturday Morning RPG any good?
Click to expand...

I enjoyed it.

It's not that long. It is a single character instead of a party and there are a couple of mechanics in there to make it different from other RPG's. If you have a love of 80's nostalgia, it hits a lot of those notes too.

One drawback (for me): When I played it, the battle options felt a little unbalanced. Once you get access to a large number of options, you get a feel that a certain set of attacks are better so you lock into them for the later parts of the game and, as a result, the battles can feel somewhat redundant in places.

I have started thinking about going back to it a couple of weeks ago despite beating the main story over a year ago. There are some replayable options outside the main game and you can re-do individual episodes to explore alternative choices (or pick up on missed items).

Getting the Arkham games for my nephew. He recently got into Batman. Two Face is his favourite character... why is it always the villian.

Thanks for the information, mate. I saw pictures on PSN page and the pixel art seems great, i think i´m gonna buy it.

If you game on the PC, I can give you a Steam copy if you'd like.

Thanks a lot for the offer, friend, however my PC have more than 10 years old and i doubt it can play even a 2d game properly.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
I've heard so much about the jack box games. Will they be OK for a PS4 with only one controller and no PS+ ? Does it require online connectivity ?

Thanks, I think I'll check it out. Been itching for a retro-style RPG recently.

I don't see any ps+ discount just the regular one. Is that normal?
Click to expand...

Its not fully up yet. that why you get 0 results when you filter it and the PS+ discounts arent applied. So if anyone is looking to buy something should wait


They probably release it early to take compete with the Best Buy sale

Totally. You really play these games with your smart devices, not your controller. My favorites are You Don't Know Jack, Drawful, Fibbage, and Quiplash. You should look up videos of them on YT to see if they're something you'd like.

Is Alienation on sale? Will it ever go on sale? Why do they continue to rub salt in the wound of non-EU plus members who never got it for free and can't even buy it on sale?

Any opinions on Sherlock Holmes: The Devils Daughter? I really enjoyed Crimes and Punishments
Click to expand...

I just started playing it after picking it up on Xbox One (it's on sale this week for $18.15 with XBL Gold, if that's of any interest to you) and while I haven't played much it is very similar to Crimes and Punishments so far. I also liked C&P a lot so this new entry has been great for me since it feels mostly like more of the same. There are a few little tweaks/additions to some of the gameplay in an attempt to add some more action and Holmes/Watson's characters have been slightly reimagined but neither of those changes have affected my enjoyment.

It's exactly what you expect. Lego doing the MCU films. Didn't find it very engaging or witty actually.
Click to expand...

I can't stand the Lego games that just use audio from the movies. Regular Lego Marvel is great, but I have avoided Avengers.

Thanks. I'm reading up on Fibbage on the side and seems like the way it works is you have to go to the jackbox.tv page on your smart devices and use the 4 digit code. That can be easily arranged.

I'm gonna pick up the Jack Box 1 for now and see if it works well as a family party game.

They require online connectivity for sure (that's how you and the smartphone controllers connect to the games) but not PS+ IIRC.

Hmm..thinking about JoJo. Got a $10 credit from Rewards, so that'll make it $13 to add another fighter to the rotation.

Been a big fan of the visual style and mannerisms for years. XD

EDIT:
Oh, is not a fighter....hmmm...
