I did good?

Nice haul.

If you got digitally, call CS and they will refund the difference to you (think original purchase has to be made within a week of it going on sale). This happened to me earlier this year and they took care of me.

Nah, it was physical. I'm not too bent out of shape, I'm loving the game so I feel like I'm okay that I paid a little more, I'm just amazed that I've timed it this way twice in a row.

 

[Hexa]

I'm thinking DMC4 and Thief. Good enough for me.

 

[Iva Demilcol]

Power stone collection is a steal.

 

[bobawesome]

Purchased Dragon's Dogma, even though I have 128 hours in the Steam release. I wanted to try my hand at a fresh BBI run and it sure is tough.

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty was somehow free on Vita. I think from PS+?

Today was a good day.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Y'all motherfuckers need some Transistor in your life

Truth.

 

[MikeyB]

You kids need to get DOSEE so Larian will consider a PS4/XB1 version for 2 after the PC version releases this year.

DO MY BIDDING AND BUY A GOOD GAME THAT DESERVES IT.....so I can get dat sequel

This is the only one I am vaguely interested in... but I just bought NMS and Overwatch. My gaming budget is blown for 2016.

 

[autoduelist]

How's Dragon Age:I? I'm likely never going to play any of the other games but I always figured I'd jump in at a low price. Worth the time and money?

No. The story and characters are good -- like DA generally. But the combat is a huge step back from the first -- it feels like hold x to kill, and spending time making formations/defensive positions/using hills/etc is a waste because ai moves characters as soon as combat starts even if you said not to.

worse, if you have any level of gaming ocd youll be driven mad. it has that 'hit r3' to pulse for nearby items... but the issue is, there are millions of herbs and shit -everywhere-. you can't walk 5 feet towards your damn waypoint without pulsing a new thing to go out of the way for. yeah! another dried flower. it will drive most mad.

How is Frozen Synapse Prime? I love turn based, XCOM type games.

it's excellent. you set up 'turns' by creating multiple waypoints [down to exact unit facing, etc] and then 'run' the the turn. hard to explain, watch some footage. similar to doorkickers and breach & clear. really good overall, my only complaint is that it feels a bit 'dry' imo compared to the other two i mentioned.

Is Conception II PSTV compatible?

Save yer money. CII is... just bland and boring. It's got all these cool systems in place, so if you play the demo you'll think you're in for something awesome -- positional attacks, combos, great character creation... but in practice, it's so easy you just attack/attack/attack... x, x, x, x,.... you don't need to cast any of your spells, you don't need to position anything [except maybe for a couple bosses]... it's just way, way, way too easy and it means all the systems are meaningless.

Anyone owns AEGIS OF EARTH: PROTONOVUS ASSAULT? Is it worth 15 bucks?

I've seen a few reviews saying it's a good tower defense game.

I like the genre but 15 bucks is kinda expensive for a TD game...

I paid full price and plat'd it. I really enjoyed it. you build circular cities on 'spinning' platforms, enemies attack from all sides, and you spin the various gears in your city to create attacks. it's not perfect - some weapons are so much better than others you won't ever use a couple -- but overall it was fun. i didn't get bored with the gameplay, but you will be doing it a lot.

 

[CouchMaster]

i was hoping for Odin Sphere Leifthrasir to go on sale.

I just bought it yesterday for $60, would've been really pissed if it was lol.

Game is worth every penny though, no regrets.

 

[Shizza]

How are the Odd World games?

GOD DAMNIT PSN IS REJECTING MY CARD AGAIN!!!

 

[outunderthestars]

PSN flash sales continue to be damn awesome.

 

[Spiral Insanity]

Jesus, Chronicles of Teddy is a mess.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

GOD DAMNIT PSN IS REJECTING MY CARD AGAIN!!!

Get those PSN cards off Amazon.

 

[PeregrinSe7en]

sooo, alien breed trilogy. should i bite?

 

[Menitta]

Get those PSN cards off Amazon.

I'm running a bunch of errands tomorrow so I'll just run by Gamestop.

This happens every time I use their online store. I'll try it again on Vita. Doubt it'll work.

 

[Spiral Insanity]

sooo, alien breed trilogy. should i bite?

Sure, for the price. I believe it has an original graphics mode. It's cool for nostalgia's sake.

I wouldn't recommend it if you weren't a fan of the original.

 

[Weiss]

If I thought Transistor was ass, would I enjoy Bastion?

never played the original

looks very interesting though

what are some pros and cons?

thanks

 

[Whales]

I didn't like transistor but I liked bastion, so i'd say maybe. Bastion was fun

 

[dragonflys545]

DMC4 SE and Bastion for me

 

[Transistor]

If I thought Transistor was ass, would I enjoy Bastion?

 

[Alastor3]

My friend have brought The witcher 3 on his ps4 that I shared with him. I played the witcher 1 but because of my ass-pc, can't play the witcher 2... I should wait, right?

 

[StrongBlackVine]

Might be time to finally buy that Dragon Inquisition DLC. Don't know if I will see a price cheaper than $16 any time soon.

 

[Menitta]

Got my card to work on my Vita. Never use the PSN website for purchases.

Got Bastion and Resonance of Fate.

 

[Aters]

Damn I should have waited a few days for Bastion.

 

[Strangelove77]

Might be time to finallybuy that Dragon Inquisition DLC. Don't know if I will see a price cheaper than $16 any time soon.

Totally worth it if you liked the main game. It's a ton of content.

 

[toddhunter]

I like Transistor way, way more than Bastion. It plays better, has a better story and is overall a much more fun experience.

And I fucking hated Transistor.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Well, this post was one heck of a roller coaster ride.

 

[Menitta]

Of the very little time I've put into both games, I think I like Transistor more than Bastion.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Yeah, Transistor > Bastion for me as well. I enjoyed both but Transistor just did everything better for me. Combat, story, style, music (!!!), etc....

Transistor is one of my favorites from this gen.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

MEGADIMENSION NEPTUNIA VII on sale for $15 again, hmm makes me wonder how well this game did. Oh well I already got it last time it was $15. Fun pick up for anyone into the series!

GEOMETRY WARS 3 is the most tempting thing I see. Maybe Divinity.

Wait. FUCK dat! The Final Fantasy games are on sale! Getting 5 and 6! Maybe even tactics!

Tactics is amazing, one of my fav FF's.

Do it Sabre! <3

 

[dralla]

I've heard great things about The Magic Circle. I'm thinking about picking it up. Anyone play it?

 

[M.W.]

PSN flash sales continue to be damn awesome.

Not for me. Constant shit every time.

 

[DonMigs85]

Not for me. Constant shit every time.

The world doth not revolveth aroundst thou, vile millenial

 

[Transistor]

Not for me. Constant shit every time.

Witcher 3 and Transistor are shit. Gotcha.

 

[LongDongJunon]

Prototype bundle at a nearly acceptable price.

 

[Doctoglethorpe]

Dumb question: Anyone get the Dragon Age goty, can you tell me if the dashboard icon actually shows that ugly gold banner that it has in the store? This is of utmost importance. Utmost.

 

[Hesh]

Not for me. Constant shit every time.

Phew, I was worried this thread was being too positive. Thanks for balancing things out a bit, you're doing yeoman's work!

 

[Elven_Star]

Dumb question: Anyone get the Dragon Age goty, can you tell me if the dashboard icon actually shows that ugly gold banner that it has in the store? This is of utmost importance. Utmost.

No, it doesn't. It's the base game with all the DLCs which you can download and install separately.

 

[Doctoglethorpe]

No, it doesn't. It's the base game with all the DLCs which you can download and install separately.

Thank you sir.

 

[jombag]

hmm teslagrad looks like a game I would like..eh for 5 bucks why not.

 

[Sparrowhawk]

hmm teslagrad looks like a game I would like..eh for 5 bucks why not.

It's a pretty good game, but I remember a couple of the puzzles being a bit janky for me.

 

[toythatkills]

Teslagrad ain't great. Physics puzzles but the physics don't work consistently making shit very hard and awkward to pass. Most of the time you just fuck about until your solution happens to fall into place.

 

[Primethius]

Yeah, Transistor > Bastion for me as well. I enjoyed both but Transistor just did everything better for me. Combat, story, style, music (!!!), etc....

Transistor is one of my favorites from this gen.

Same. Wonderful experience. In fact, I'm due for a replay.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

Totally worth it if you liked the main game. It's a ton of content.

I did really enjoy the main game and I definitely want to see how this leads into the next release since base game ended with a big cliffhanger.

 

[Aselith]

How is Aegis of Earth? It looks interesting.

 

[Tizoc]

How are the Odd World games?

Timeless. The first 2 abe games are puzzle platformers.
Munch is a 3D Adventure puzzle game
Stranger's Wrath is an action game with FPS shooting elements.

They're all good in their own way IMO and I've enjoyed them all (well except Exoddus which is more of an expansion to Oddyssey[/spoiler]
FYI that New n' Tasty is a remake of Abe Oddyssey, and Exoddus' remake would be releasing by next year.

 

[Rymuth]

If I thought Transistor was ass, would I enjoy Bastion?

I didn't like transistor but I liked bastion, so i'd say maybe. Bastion was fun

Same. Thought Bastion was far superior to Transistor.
