So if they're not providing anything new, why the price rise? I only have it because I have to for online games. To be honest though, we should all have made a stand when PS4 came out; after all, on PS3 we paid nothing. Too late now really. Not happy but have too many games I play online to say no.
Sounds ok so far. Not sure if I will go for it, having spent nearly 3 years playing D1. It very much seems like more of something very similar; eedto expand my gaming horizons But, I know quite a few people who only play Destiny, so this will go down a treat for them.
Hmmm, well, it is very cheap to buy on fleabay. What would multiplayer involve? All endlessly gathering materials together? What else happens in No Man's Sky, I've always been a bit unsure.
The launch content was lacking in D1, and the game was unpolished at release. Looks to me like they are going in the right direction with D2; guilds, more initial content and stuff. Price wise, I won't pay for the £100 version off the bat, I will buy the base game and see if I like it first, even if I end up paying a bit more in the long run. Bungie will manage ok; the Destiny obsessives who have been at it for 3 years already will lap it all up
Damn. Won't be able to cry this month either; that's 2 in a row. Never played Until Dawn so will give that a go for sure. How does Game of Thrones work? Is it like a game broken up into episodes?
@CountFunkula78 Tell me about it. I have ESO+ so get the craft bag for tons of extra storage, plus double bank space...still not enough. Hoarding is a bad affliction
I am really enjoying it, and think it is worth an 8 to be honest. A lot has gone into it, and Zenimax have to pay for that, so the price point isn't that outrageous; and of course, it's not essential in order to play the base game and DLC, so can be bought later, when cost goes down. Much of the game can certainly be played solo, even the easier dungeons can be soloed once you are a high enough level, and there is a group finding tool for the other stuff. If you subscribe to ESO +, you get all the other DLC to play, and they have already announced 2 more DLC packs coming in the near future.
Wow. I'm very happy with Killing Floor 2; makes a nice change to get a really good game. Not so bothered about the other one, but I'm sure it will be great for those who like those sort of games.
@Paranoimia That sucks! Don't think I'll bother then. It's a pretty basic requirement for a modern game to be honest. The cheating on D1 due to servers is a joke.
It all looks great, but they haven't revealed if they will have dedicated servers yet? PVP in D1 was a joke; there is no way I would buy D2 if they don't have this. I think that they won't, which is why they're keeping quiet.
I think refunds need to happen on PS4, Firewatch is a bit of an anomaly, in that most games run for much longer than 2 hours; obviously if you played it and finished it, you should do the right thing by the developer and not ask for a refund. But for AAA releases like NMS, where the game seems to bear little relation to what you expected, then I think it's fair enough to ask.
Good news re external HDD support at last. All the rest sound very handy too. Now we can all start complaining about backward compatibility, and maybe we will get it. Nice!
Honest answer; it's an average month in a sea of below average months. In fairness, I play a lot of online games, and grab the occasional free game from PS+, so not complaining.
I have lots of games still to play, and won't really need to buy day one releases, so will wait for price drops. The only game I am anticipating day one purchase for is Destiny 2.
I haven't been grabbed by any recent titles either; except maybe Battlefield 1, but I will wait for the price to drop on that. I do think that cost is a factor, when you look at the prices of new games. I am definitely going to buy Horizon: ZD though, in the new year. Also agree about too many remasters and mediocre sequels.

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda Won't Be Getting Story DLC or Any Further Updates
This and No Man's Sky are the reason I never pre order games any more.
Re: European PlayStation Store Reloads with Cheap PS4 Games
Mostly the same stuff. Either got it or don't need it. Also, am saving my £ for Destiny 2.

Re: You Won't Be Able to Edit Your Imported Guardians in Destiny 2
No problem here; I just go for the generic option as it gives me an extra 30 minutes killing things

Re: Sony: Our Exclusives Are Big on Character and Story
I like both types of game, so am happy that it's not swinging too far to either side. Good decision Sony

Re: PS4 Firmware Update 4.71 Is Available to Download Now
Hmm...I still remember the update that bricked my original PS3 with much bitterness; it shouldn't happen. I will wait a few days at least.

No complaints here

Well, we got our one decent game for the year with Killing Floor 2, so only to be expected :/
Re: Bethesda's Busy Making a AAA Free-to-Play Game
Lol, Bethesda's pay to play games are buggy and unfinished enough; god alone knows what f2p will be like.
Re: Digital Game Sales Are Becoming More and More Important to Sony
Digital would be ideal, but if the prices stay higher than discs, then not for me; I'm not that lazy
Also, games on disc are really cheap 2nd hand, and if games became only digital, I would just buy fewer games.
Re: Star Wars Battlefront Free with PlayStation Plus If You're New
Isn't SWB pants though?

Re: Review: Victor Vran: Overkill Edition (PS4)
Hmm, was interested until lack of skill trees came up; that would make it a bit basic, I would have thought.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 170
Playing some ESO, geting ready for Morrowind
Re: Hands On: Has Everybody's Golf on PS4 Been Worth the Wait?
Yeah, I'm interested in this, though it's not my usual type of game. Would be good just to dip into as a break from MMO's

Re: Talking Point: What Free June 2017 PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
Battlefield 1

Re: Prepare For Much Backstabbing in The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind
@smythelove It is ESO, it's an expansion for ESO.
I will be getting it for sure, looks like it will be quite a bit of extra content.
Re: The Order: 1886 Can Be Yours for Thruppence on PS4
Will we be getting these in the UK anytime soon?

Lol, I can't believe they let the game out like this I will be waiting for it to get to the bargain bin.

Re: Feature: Would You Snog, Marry, or Avoid These PlayStation Stars?
I would snog them all; then avoid them!
Re: Next PS4 Firmware Update Finally Brings External Hard Drive Support
Good news re external HDD support at last. All the rest sound very handy too. Now we can all start complaining about backward compatibility, and maybe we will get it. Nice!

Honest answer; it's an average month in a sea of below average months. In fairness, I play a lot of online games, and grab the occasional free game from PS+, so not complaining.
Re: Destiny's Next Big Update Is Due In Spring
Bring in dedicated servers and nerf Matador 64; that would be a good update for me.
Re: Confirmed! PS4 Players Are Gaming's Biggest W*nkers
Most of them are PVP players from Destiny
Re: Hardware Review: Is the Razer Raiju the PS4's True Pro Controller?
I don't have any issues with the DS4, and £150 is a crazy price to pay for a console controller IMHO. Think I will give this a miss.
Re: Poll: What Was Your Favourite PlayStation Game of 2016?
Another vote for Doom here. Also, loved the Skyrim remaster, but don't really count that as a new 2016 game.
Re: Talking Point: Has Holiday 2016 Devalued New Games?
I have lots of games still to play, and won't really need to buy day one releases, so will wait for price drops. The only game I am anticipating day one purchase for is Destiny 2.

Re: Destiny PS4 Update 2.5.0 Full Patch Notes Released By Bungie
Yep, certainly will be jumping in. A well needed slice of extra content I reckon.
Re: PSX 2016: Destiny's The Dawning Update Promises a Lot of Festive Game Tweaks
Am certainly looking forward to new content. All we need now is more vault space to go with the new gear...ahem...Bungie?
Re: Rumour: December PS Plus PS4 Games Leaked on PlayStation Store
I thought we were about due for another AAA game; especially at Christmas time. Seems like Sony have Scrooge on the payroll.
Re: Talking Point: Which Free December PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
Dishonored.

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda Looks Space Ace in New Screenshots
Looks like Destiny
Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda Finally Gets a Proper Trailer
Not much gameplay in there so hard to say really? Trailer looks good though.
