[EU] PSN SALE - Massive Summer* Sale - until 21/8**
- Thread starter Bishop89
- Start date
Grabbed the Spider-Man Season Pass and The Silver Case. The latter was only 7 euros, cheapest it has been so far!
Even then I wouldn't by it. Played it on game pass and didn't last an hour before deleting it. 3 was already bad but 4 is something else. 1 and 2 were brilliant but then the series took a big dive for me
Guys. Serious help please.
I'm tight on budget. Can get only 1 of these games.
I'm stuck between Days Gone and Rage 2.
Some backstory on my current gaming situation.
I already have Hitman 2 for my Third Person fun. And I'm loving every second of it. I got it because I love Hitman. But also cause I love full blown shootout playthroughs as well.
I already have Far Cry 5 for my First Person... kinda fun. I'm just playing through it for the stealth bow and arrow kills. I downloaded this game cause I wanted a fun first person shooting game. Haven't gotten much fun out of it.
So now, I know Days Gone has gotten mixed reviews, has quite a few glitches and can be a slog maybe but some say the game gets much better towards the end.
Rage 2 looks like a fun game to shoot around in first person. Crazy action, etc. But I've heard the game is pretty bland otherwise. So... I'm confused.
Help would be very much appreciated.

Days gone out of those 2. A lot of the bugs have been patched out and there is a good game in there.
Just beware it has a slow start and may take some time to get into it. Once you hit the third camp though it actually turns in to a really good game.
I've tried (and failed) to get into many of the previous MH games, and in my experience getting into "world" was pretty smooth, you're not at a disadvantage if you jump in as a newb. There's a lot of game there that was somewhat overwhelming at points but getting to grips with the meat of it in the first hours wasn't onerous. I'd recommend it as someone who (until world) has always wanted to enjoy a MH game and was never able to.
My finger is hovering over Horizon DLC, Rez ∞ and Days Gone. I never really had any real desire to play Days gone but it seems a solid enough open world game. I shouldn't really bother I still have a massive backlog too :/

Thanks.
Will indulge into the zombieland.
Edit - Oops, I mean freakerland.
Is Metal Gear Rising available on PS4?
Psprices is confusing me. It says it is, but then only links me to the ps3 store https://psprices.com/region-es/game/39813/metal-gear-rising-revengeance

I just finished this and really enjoyed it, it's a good 10-12 hour stealth action game with lite puzzling.
It's really not challenging at all outside of a few sequences but the story and atmosphere is great and the characters are nicely written and likable.
The sale price is fair for what you get.
Does anyone know how often the Odyssey season pass goes on sale?
Debating whether to go Gold or standard.

Yeah I'm also tempted to finally buy Rez infinite, especially on VR.
Available on PS Now, which is where the confusion will come in.
Paused on Days gone for now, but grabbed Rez Infinite. Seems a steal, given the temperature outside though I doubt I'll give it a go today on VR, the headset is comfy but warm :)
Might also be worth just checking out EA Access as its one of the games included on PS4.
I'm not sure whether I should finally fix my status as the only person on the planet who doesn't have GTA V, or if I should get AC Odyssey.
I just have a quick story spoilers question about GTA V though:
I just have a quick story spoilers question about GTA V though:
I watched my sister play through at launch until just after the bank heist in the small town, where Packie from GTA IV is with you, and you basically stroll up in absolutely massive body armour (almost Fallout Power Armour-esque) and miniguns. Is that close to the end, or is there still a decent amount of story left?
World was made with newbies in mind :P
Might get it as well. 19,99 is a good price, especially right before the Addon releases.
Can a game that is currently on sale become a PS plus free game (during the sale)?
I want to buy shadow of the Colossus but I'm afraid it might be a freebie in August.

I think it happened before. The PS+ games will be announced on Wednesday so SOTC will at least still be on sale after that if you want to be safe.
Thank you for the answer! I'll wait till the announcement then!
Cheers :)
Anything new added today? I've just picked up £20 of credit and there's not much on my wish list that's actually on sale.
I'm thinking of getting the complete DLC bundle for Resident Evil 2. I really liked the main game but only played once and have been intending to replay the other scenarios. I also found it quite difficult and stressful, but having an infinite ammo weapon will help immensely, and the new costumes and music are a nice incentive for a replay too.
I'm also thinking of getting Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2. I don't even have PS+ any more but it's only fucking £1.60 and that's a ridiculously low price. Might be a good buy as a 'what if' in case I ever subscribe to Plus again.

I too am tempted by both of those as well, I played the arse off Resi 2 back in the day with my housemates and it was always my favourite. I suffer a lot more from anxiety these days though and I just can't get on with tension in games any more. As much as Prey was amazing I had to put that away as I just wasn't enjoying playing it, have you played Prey Tel? and would you say Resi2 remake is similarly difficult and stressful. Cheers in advance.
I've only played a few hours of Prey. I liked it a lot although combat is probably my least favourite thing about it. I like the mimics and rooting out where they're hiding, but found fighting the bigger ones (Typhons, I think?) pretty tricky although I was still early in the game without good weapons, and working out decent strategies. I stopped playing, although only because other games got in the way. I was enjoying what I played of it, the depth and detail to it all felt great and I loved the space station environment.
Resi 2 is different though. Prey definitely has a slower and more relaxed pace to it, as you can do a lot more exploring and there's a ton of things like literature and emails to read in your own time. In Resi 2 I guess the only options are typically running or fighting, and when Mr. X is chasing you around I found it really fucking stressful, in a slightly bothersome, slightly hysterical "thank fuck that bit's over [nervous laughter]" sort of way. It's a really good game though has probably my favourite interpretation of zombies in video games ever. They're really detailed, the noise they make is super unsettling and they can be crazy hard to kill. But I don't mean this is a bad way, as I love zombie fiction and they were brilliant. Anyway, I'd say if you like horror games or Resi 1 Remake you should like Resi 2. It manages to keep the same balance between combat, exploration and puzzles that the original pre-RE4 games had while also being a load more modernised and accessible. It's probably my favourite game so far this year, and mild anxiety aside I'd say definitely play it if you're a fan of the genre.
Edit - feel free to sling me a friend request on Telminator-2 if you want.

Cheers Triggerhappytel, great stuff. I too found combat my least favourite part of Prey, thematically and story wise I was really enjoying it but, like you, I found other games came along and it was all to easy to set aside.
Resi 2 having a similar balance to earlier games sounds good though, I'll add it to my ever growing wishlist and see what is what when the sale gets close to finish. I've got funds in my PS wallet and a hole is being ever burned, I'm half tempted to just pre order Death Stranding so it's gone and I stop torturing myself over what to buy.
Thanks again!

Shooting doesn't feel as good as the first and stealth doesn't really work but if you like the first you should enjoy the second.
