Topic: Your Latest PS4 Purchase

Cool, it would be good to get your thoughts on it when you get round to play it.

Can't remember how much I paid for it but felt a bit guilty after finishing it, so I bought the dynamic theme aswell.

Ni no Kuni II off the PSN Flash Sale.

I loved the first so not sure why it took me so long to pick this up but looking forward to giving it a go.

Just pre-ordered Dead Cells, which is out on Tuesday. Totally forgot. It is actually cheaper on the PS store than I could find it on any online site sat £15.99. And it is not released physically until the 14th either.

I got Burnout Paradise in the sale and I didn't know DJ Atomica did the commentary for this game, that's awesome! I loved him in SSX3. I knew he did a Burnout but I thought it was an earlier one - maybe he did more?

@RogerRoger I've not played the game, but if it was me I would play the main game first before purchasing any dlc.

Ni no kuni 2, Tomb Raider and Wolfenstein for a total of € 30. Retail. Nice.

Honestly, I don't know what's happening here in Italy. Maybe the Big Ones already know that the end of the world is near, but I can see big deals everywhere. Resi 7 and Dishonored 2 too are € 9. And now I have a 50 gb plan for my phone and it's € 8 per month...

sigh

I can usually withstand Sony's non-stop onslaught of sales, but I relented and bought Ratchet and Clank in the recent sale.

At least I had the willpower to hold off on Horizon.

You are going to have so much fun - It's an delightful game! And very addicting. It's like a Nintendo third person shooter.

I couldn't get into Horizon ZD for some reason

@Feena @RogerRoger Good to hear! I've been eyeing it for years, but with my backlog the way it is, I try to hold off on new PS4 purchases. With that said, it's short, and cheap, and it looks beautiful, so it seemed like a better purchase at the moment than some 50-hour RPG like Horizon.

Picked up Dead Cells which is great and Deaths Gambit (could be great but has unresponsive controls)

@Ralizah I was shocked to see how cheap Horizon Zero Dawn is now. The current sale price for the complete edition (with the PS Plus discount added) is only $2 more than the cost of the Frozen Wilds DLC. I thoroughly enjoyed R&C too and am also really liking HZD, but yes, it is a long game. R&C never overstays it’s welcome.

Random semi-related thought:
It’s always hard to predict which games will drop in price and are worth waiting, while some stay up there for years. For example, God of War is down to $35 in the current sale. Very tempting for me at that price. It’s a Goty contender, highly rated, blockbuster title that is only 4 months old, and the price is starting to drop. Contrast with Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a game I’ve had my eye on out of curiosity, thinking that since it has not set the charts on fire, probably under performed and it’s likely they want to try to move units — and despite my expectations to be able to find it cheap, it’s price on the current sale is still $40. I would think it would be much less. It’s been out 2 months longer than GoW.

And it’s weird how sometimes complete editions are even cheaper than the standard editions.

Bought that a few weeks back, it's good fun and scratched the arcade racer itch I had. But holy f, i found DJ Atomica annoying! Shame there wasn't an option to mute him.

@JohnnyShoulder I love him, but only because he's in SSX 3 and I honestly never found him annoying in that game, and it's one of my favourite games ever. So as soon as I heard his voice I was pretty chuffed.

I can see why people would hate him though lol

@Th3solution Most PS4 games crash in price after a year or so. Especially first-party games. Although the Uncharted games seem to hold their value a bit longer than others. I imagine TLOU Part II will be the same way.

It's actually a big reason I don't bother buying the majority of PS4 and AAA games at launch. Why buy then when I can wait a while and net the same game for less than half the price it was originally?

The only difference is when I want to support a game at launch, and then I always preorder anyway.

Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5 remix HD, waiting on it to come in the mail. Never bought the PS3 versions so I'm happy for this. Ain't touched a KH game in years. Very happy to finally play the Final Mix versions of the games. Was pissed in 2008 when I first heard about them and we never got them.

Hope you have fun, especially against the Final Mix exclusive bosses and everything Birth by Sleep.

Also, you'll want to buy Kingdom Hearts 2.8 if you don't already have it. Dream Drop HD continues the main story after KH2, and KH 0.2 BBS bridges the gap between BBS and KH 1-3.

Yeah same here, one of the reasons I pre-ordered HZD and God of War, albeit only a couple of weeks before release.

Yep, 2.8 is on my list to play directly after I finish this one. These compilations are nice, feels like an apology for releasing games across 5 different consoles. Lol.

That's very true, it is sorta like an apology. I wish I had waited to play BBS until the PS3/PS4 versions were announced, instead of playing it 1-2 years after the PSP version was announced.

Thankfully I never bought/played Dream Drop on 3DS, no matter how many times I was tempted to...paid off in the long run .
