Alienation does have couch co-op, for those asking.

Replayability was really high for me due to the different classes playing out so differently, plus I wanted nothing but Legendary gear with max slots on my characters, which will take awhile to farm as it is the most rare loot in the game.
They patched in color customization for armors (with different perks), and increasing rank allows you to change ammo color too. Its possible to view enemy models as well for those who enjoy that, and there are pretty tough UFO missions after you complete the game (beware that if you die in these youll need to find another key to access the UFO). You can also go back to previous levels anytime youd like if you feel youre not ready to move on to the next level.
If youre interested in putting in the time to go around entire maps destroying checkpoints, you will be rewarded extra loot boxes at the end of levels. I think the limit is 4 though? I only recommend doing this after youve completed all the objectives since its risky. Enemies will respawn if you die, so think twice before you do this.
The game gets brutal in harder difficulties but the rewards are higher.

Is The Division good as a single player game at $19.99?

I played it at launch and it was good for the first few hours but got very repetitive. Maybe its improved since but I wouldnt bite unless it has.

Honestly? Yeah, I really enjoyed it. If you like 3rd person shooters and loot systems I would say it's worth it. Great graphics and it's pretty enjoyable to play. Not sure how the community is still, but when I played there were no issues finding groups for dungeons.

I've got 30 PSN dollas. Do I want The Surge or Dragons Dogma?
You absolutely want Dragon's Dogma. One of the greats in terms of action combat.
Dragon's Dogma first, then surge later.

Is Wipeout worth it? I actually quite liked hd and played some of the psp one but seemed like the difficulty spike is crazy pretty early on imo. Also does it have custom soundtracks for that unlimited colorful mode?

Double dipping early on SFV

Tempted by Alienation, MKXL, and MegaMan.
At the very least, I'll get Alienation.

Yes, it's an improved successor and it has 4 player co-op.

Thanks guys
I prefer 3rd person shooters, and like a lot of loot like Diablo and Nioh.
I guess I'm hoping that I'll be able to solo most content.

Alienation and Wipe out easily
I picked it up and I've already had 6 bucks worth of fun. I think it's great so far.

Mai Natsume not on sale? =/
Just FYI, purchases from this flash sale nets you 3x Sony Rewards Points, which can be used to redeem more PSN money later (I found out I had enough points for $10 by checking my points today).
Is The Surge worth it at $30? I think it's the cheapest it's been so far, currently cheaper than Best Buy or Amazon too. I like the Souls games quite a bit. Yay or nay?

Alienation has online co-op, right? I didn't see anything listed on the store when I went to check it out.
Yeah, it started as online co-op only, then they patched in local later.

Been playing some Trials HD this week and have the itch for a current gen version.
Is Trials Fusion any good?

Why does the Mortal Kombat XL upgrade pack never go on sale 
Check out https://www.psprices.com . I get a notification on my computer when a game I've signed up for has a price drop.

The servers are still going strong. I've been slowly making my way through the lbp.me team picks and I'm constantly blown away by how good some of them are.

Post-release development/patches are canned for torment...game sold horribly, stay away from inXiles games

bad gameplay lol
How is Alienation for someone who likes loot games but doesn't like playing them in multiplayer? For example, I have an absolute ton of hours in games like Diablo III and Dragon's Crown, but I've never once touched multiplayer in either of them. I keep reading that it's less good solo, which has me worried. Can anyone who's played it exclusively or at least mostly solo vouch for it?
I like both experiences equally. I think the encounters are more intense solo'd especially with no one there to revive you or help you through. It's pretty easy to die if you're not careful. The "less good in solo" thing is something I often see for most games that feature good co-op. It's just really, really fun playing shooters with friends...sometimes. Sometimes your friends will actually get you killed because they're running around triggering every surrounding enemy thinking that's actually a good strategy in this game lol. I didn't try any co-op at all until my second character.

Got Hitman. Already have it on PC but my toaster can barely play it in 1080p at 30 FPS with low settings. Would be nice to see how much better it is on a Pro.

Holy crap.. I hope you took their advice. Dragons dogma, but the surge is not that bad.

Nice I've been wanting to try out Alienation. Doubt I'll have time to dig into it until 2018 but I'll get it now while it's cheap
Edit: 5.0 update broke my Pro
No video signal any of my TVs even in safe mode.
This sucks
I heard some people were having issues. I updated my Pro. I hope it does not go out on me.

I think the consensus is that people don't like it quite as much as Trials Evo Gold but for 6 bucks you'll have a sufficiently good time.
Is it just the base game? I might think twice about buying the base game because the season pass never goes on sale, while the complete edition of the game does.
