I might get this so I can have my first and only platinum. Then when someone checks which game I got my platinum on they can see me for the idiot I am.
I've had the gold headset for a year now. Very happy with the sound quality but in the last week both hinges have decided to break. Is the sound and build quality worth the jump in price to platinum?
@Gatatog this is why I love this site. Decent people with decent reactions; had you mentioned this on other sites you'd probably have been subjected to the usual trolling. Bravo fellow push squarers. I hope the comments have helped you over your loss.
@get2sammyb yeah just seen that it has been delayed in EU. Never mind, I'll just listen to the new Soulwax album on repeat for the whole journey instead!
@rjejr I've no idea how much how much it'll cost or whether it'll be available for non PS plus subscribers. Maybe Sammy doesn't know either; I'm not trying to fight his journalistic battles for him.
I just didn't see any problem with the way it was reported. I do take your point, though, that not all the information is present. A bit like brexit, then...
@get2sammyb just wanted to say thanks for removing the score from the top of the review, I much prefer to read the write up before knowing. Always felt it spoilt things a little. Also saw this on other ones too- is this going to continue for all new reviews?
Preordered after reading reviews- I knew I wanted it but like so many others I've be burnt by hype many times before. Shows what having a sensible review embargo date can do.
I'm so pleased this is reviewing well (apart from the odd contrary one just to try and be different) and the review embargo lifted at a sensible time. Going to pre-order this right now...
@get2sammyb whilst I'm sure everyone agrees that the review wasn't the best, it was the meltdown in the comments that made it so memorable. Poor guy. Goes to show you need a thick skin on the internet- I certainly don't envy you guys sometimes.
Definitely buying this game but the writing seems weak by what I've just seen. Also is it me or does Aloy mumble really quietly? I'm hoping there's a side quest in which she receives elocution lessons.
@get2sammyb haha I wouldn't want you to get in trouble! I ain't heard nothing guvnor Anyway, I can't buy it until tonight and I'll get to enjoy your review first before making up my mind.
I've gone for Horizon though currently my most anticipated game is Yakuza 0 as it's releasing soon and I've got a terribly short term view on things. Never played a Yakuza game and I can't wait to try it.
I think it's the result of consumer fatigue with the same old franchises/genres, too many games releasing broken or lacking content, and being over priced to begin with.

Re: Hands On: Does LawBreakers Exert Its Own Pull in the Multiplayer Shooter Scene?
I've enjoyed the beta but it feels too shallow to pay £25 for.
Re: Review: Smashbox Arena (PS4)
@get2sammyb you sure you need 2 move controllers in each hand? That's a lot of controllers
Re: August 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Announced
Lineup is strong like bull. Didn't get on with just cause but I'll happily revisit on pro
Re: The Destiny 2 Open Beta Has Been Extended
Wanted to enjoy it but kept hitting an error ("moose") during the opening level, which threw me out of the game each time.
Re: Gundam Versus Is Getting an Open Beta Here in the West
Never played Gundam so I'm up for giving this a blast

Re: Weirdness: A PS4 Game Is Being Sold on the Premise That It's Super Easy to Platinum
I might get this so I can have my first and only platinum. Then when someone checks which game I got my platinum on they can see me for the idiot I am.
Re: SteamWorld Dig 2 Goes Deep on PS4 Later This Year
Triple that yes
Re: Review: Get Even (PS4)
Bummer, was looking forward to this.
Re: E3 2017: Spider-Man PS4's Open World Map Sounds Pretty Bloody Big
So, five times bigger than Sunset Overdrive?
Re: E3 2017: Tee Off with Everybody's Golf Trailer for PS4
Can I keep my Hot Shots Part Deux tattoo?
Re: Gallery: Days Gone PS4 Screenshots Show There's Beauty in the Apocalypse
Stunning! Looks like Pro is beginning to hit its stride.
Re: Deals: PlayStation Plus Discounted, PS4 Hardware Bundles £199
ShopTo are selling the platinum headset for under £90, which is handy seeing as my gold pair have recently broken.
Re: Sony Thanks the Fans with Days of Play Promotion Through E3 2017
@Galvatron because this site has international readership?
Re: Guide: 16 Best PS4 Accessories You Need to Own in 2017
I've had the gold headset for a year now. Very happy with the sound quality but in the last week both hinges have decided to break. Is the sound and build quality worth the jump in price to platinum?
Re: Review: RiME (PS4)
@Quintumply I realise its not the be all and end all, but how long did it take to complete?
Re: Store Update: 23rd May 2017 (Europe)
Really intrigued by Get Even. Looks like it'll either be superb or trash, and nothing in between.
Re: Military Sim America's Army: Proving Grounds to Deploy on PS4
Looks cool. It's not often we get to play as the terrorists
Re: New Hot Shots Golf Putts Out Closed Beta on 26th May
@Number09 Eurogamer reported a 30th August release date for Europe. Fingers crossed, this is a day 1 purchase for me.

Re: Store Update: 28th March 2017 (Europe)
@get2sammyb Strange, I've read in a number of places it'll be out today. Was hoping to get it in time for a long train journey tomorrow.
Re: Store Update: 28th March 2017 (Europe)
@get2sammyb no mention of Salt and Sanctuary for Vita- I thought that was coming out today?
Re: Video: Does Yooka-Laylee Delight on the PS4?
So the frame rate's suspect, the camera a struggle, and the boss fights uninspired... but I still totally want this game.
Re: Get Your Crash Bandicoot Idle Animation Idea in the N. Sane Trilogy
I'd prefer it if he got out a sherbet dip dab
Re: Drawn to Death's Trophies Compose an Angsty Short Story
@rjejr I've no idea how much how much it'll cost or whether it'll be available for non PS plus subscribers. Maybe Sammy doesn't know either; I'm not trying to fight his journalistic battles for him.

Re: Drawn to Death's Trophies Compose an Angsty Short Story
@rjejr dude don't bring up brexit, I'm desperately trying to imagine it was just a nasty fever dream.
And there really was nothing wrong with the way the game's price- or otherwise- was presented in the article.
Re: Salt and Sanctuary Invests its Souls into PS Vita Next Week
Cool. Fingers crossed it's a good port
Re: Review: NieR: Automata (PS4)
@get2sammyb under the game rating 'our review' used to give the score but now says "scroll down"
Re: Review: NieR: Automata (PS4)
@get2sammyb just wanted to say thanks for removing the score from the top of the review, I much prefer to read the write up before knowing. Always felt it spoilt things a little. Also saw this on other ones too- is this going to continue for all new reviews?
And top review as always.
Re: Get Money Back from the European PlayStation Store This Month
@Jungkook thanks. Bit cheeky that isn't it?
Re: Get Money Back from the European PlayStation Store This Month
Any idea how long the voucher is valid for? Presumably you don't have to use it in april
Re: PlayStation Plus March Games Revealed
First month that I already own all the games- except disc jam obviously. Damn you Sony! Good selection, though.
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Horizon: Zero Dawn?
Preordered after reading reviews- I knew I wanted it but like so many others I've be burnt by hype many times before. Shows what having a sensible review embargo date can do.
Re: Hands On: Is Disc Jam the Next Rocket League?
@AlexStinton Any idea how long it takes to get a code? I'd like to try this, so signed up yesterday but still nothing in my inbox (or junk folder)
Re: Review: Horizon: Zero Dawn (PS4)
I'm so pleased this is reviewing well (apart from the odd contrary one just to try and be different) and the review embargo lifted at a sensible time. Going to pre-order this right now...
Re: February PlayStation Plus Games Revealed
@get2sammyb whilst I'm sure everyone agrees that the review wasn't the best, it was the meltdown in the comments that made it so memorable. Poor guy. Goes to show you need a thick skin on the internet- I certainly don't envy you guys sometimes.
Re: February PlayStation Plus Games Revealed
@get2sammyb you're too kind. Had a right laugh reading all that again 😂
Re: February PlayStation Plus Games Revealed
@RawShark haha I remember that review well!
LBP3 is a good game, shame I already have it. Looking forward to Not a Hero and the Vita offerings (for once)
Re: Hype Yourself with an Entire Horizon: Zero Dawn Quest Playthrough
Definitely buying this game but the writing seems weak by what I've just seen. Also is it me or does Aloy mumble really quietly? I'm hoping there's a side quest in which she receives elocution lessons.
Re: Ace Combat 7 Scores Skies Unknown Subtitle, Extended Trailer
Man, that cheese stinks. Love it! This and RE7 are making me seriously consider diving into VR.
Re: Of Course You Can Fish in NieR Automata on PS4
@FantasyMeister lol 👏👏
Re: Store Update: 17th January 2017 (Europe)

Re: Store Update: 17th January 2017 (Europe)
@get2sammyb awesome, thanks. I'll wait for your review before parting with my hard-earned
Re: Store Update: 17th January 2017 (Europe)
@get2sammyb will you be reviewing The Flame in the Flood?
Re: Poll: What's Your Most Anticipated PS4 Game of 2017?
I've gone for Horizon though currently my most anticipated game is Yakuza 0 as it's releasing soon and I've got a terribly short term view on things. Never played a Yakuza game and I can't wait to try it.
Re: Talking Point: Has Holiday 2016 Devalued New Games?
I think it's the result of consumer fatigue with the same old franchises/genres, too many games releasing broken or lacking content, and being over priced to begin with.
