Banner Saga 2 legit as fuck

 

[CentralScrutinizer]

I never played Banner Saga, will I have an issue jumping into the second one?

 

[aggienader]

Wow didn't expect Banner Saga 2

 

[Xav]

Meh.

 

[JCX]

Wow, Banner Saga 2 so soon? That's a big get.

 

[dancrane212]

Just beat Banner Saga on Friday, perfect timing!

 

[The Jackdog]

banner saga 2 is a big one, games with gold has had a solid showing lately.

 

[dralla]

Sweet. I have Banner Saga on PC but haven't played it but glad to have the sequel for when I do eventually play through it

 

[backflip10019]

Time to buy Banner Saga 1 I guess. Wish it was on sale.

 

[Flux]

Ekim the insider we don't deserve.

 

[Fred Feuerstein]

Time to buy Banner Saga 1 I guess. Wish it was on sale.

just wait. there is probably a summer sale coming.

 

[Mushroomer25]

Don't sleep on Tumblestone. If you're into couch competitive puzzlers like Tetris Attack or Super Puzzle Fighter - it is absolutely worth the hard drive space. Plus, online MP.

Is there local MP?

 

[ZeroX03]

Tron Evolution is not worth your time. It's not a terrible game, as far as movie tie-ins go, but there's little substance other than the cool visual style which Tron RUNr does even better, with half decent gameplay to boot. The online is okay fun if it's still up (I assume it is?), but it was a graveyard on release, it might get a tiny boost with the GWG release but probably dead after a week.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

Meh, I've heard good things about Banner Saga so I'll download the sequel.

Otherwise I'm not even going to bother "buying" the rest.

 

[SirClinksAlot]

I never played Banner Saga, will I have an issue jumping into the second one?

I would like to know this too. Jump into 2 or wait and play 1 first?

 

[Mushroomer25]

Is there local MP?

Yep. Four player competitive. Easy to learn, but it can get very heated.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Oh shit, Banner Saga 2?

Been eyeing that for a hot minute, definitely gonna jump.

 

[j0hnnix]

Steam has BS1 for 4.99 not sure when MS will through their Summer Sale.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Honking selections for me this month. Ahh well, you can't win them all.

 

[ev0]

I'm sure you could play Banner Saga 2 w/o 1.....but isn't it the type of game that transfers your choices from BS1 with into BS2 with the save file?

I think you'd miss more without playing the first one. It s a good get for GWG, but my save is tied to PC already.

 

[jmood88]

I was just about to buy Banner Saga, so this is great news.

 

[Inglorious_ Man]

I beat the first Banner Saga on PS4 and was planning on buying it on PS4 becuase my save will carry over but now it is free on Xbox One. I dont know what to do. I want my save to carry over.

 

[backflip10019]

just wait. there is probably a summer sale coming.

Cool, when does this start?

That sucks.. I have added it to my steam cart but now removed it because of save carry over.

 

[ekim]

Next Tuesday.

 

[backflip10019]

Next Tuesday.

Awesome! Guess I'll sit tight til then to buy BS1. Fingers are crossed it shows up!

 

[j0hnnix]

Next Tuesday.

eek right after the steam sale.

 

[KingV]

I believe (from reading reviews) that the save carryover is mostly one BIG choice that carries over into Banner Saga 2, and you can re-make it at the beginning of BS2 even on a new save.

I will be doing this, even though I have no recollection of which choice I made playing it on my iPad, two years ago.

 

[malfcn]

I'll download. And maybe someday play.

 

[uncleniccius]

I never play the first But Banner Saga is good.

I love R6 Vegas 2 so that is also a good result. The best month for me in a while.

Yea, the Vegas series had some fun t-hunt

 

[uncleniccius]

Yea, the Vegas series had some fun t-hunt

So good. So much better than in Siege.

They should bring back Calypso Casino, such a ridiculously good map.

 

[EBE]

vegas 2!
looks like a great month

 

[JetSetRadio]

Vegas 2 was good, do these BC games have MP?

 

[hollomat]

Really excited for banner saga 2.

Games with gold has really overtaken PS Plus. Every month Games with Gold has at least 1 game I'm really looking forward to playing. Can't say the same with PS Plus.

 

[Unity2012]

Banner Saga 2 is definitely welcome. It was on my wish list already.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Banner Saga 2, nice!

Tumblestone is another release day freebie, that's 2 in one month. Very impressive.

 

[Lion Heart]

Damn what an atrocious month.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

Vegas 2 was good, do these BC games have MP?

As long as the Devs/pubs never shut off the servers then ya they will work

 

[Tapejara]

Great line up (aside from Tron). Will have to pick up the first Banner Saga though!

 

[Xion4360]

I probably wont be playing much on my xbox until forza horizon 3.

 

[RespectThySole]

Banner Saga 2? Nice.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Vegas 2, yay!

Tron Evolution, boo!

 

[Falchion]

Really excited about Banner Saga 2!

 

[Alpha Phoenix]

Highly recommend Vegas 2 if anyone hasn't played it.

 

[RedEther]

Terrible month

 

[The Last Wizard]

So good. So much better than in Siege.

You're telling me bro, t-hunt is such an afterthought in siege

If I had live I'd be all over Vegas 2 again, might grab a month just to play this again. Anyone know if character info was saved on systems or Ubi servers?

 

[Rembrandt]

GAF Realistic Terrorist Hunt?
