    They are all good games but if i were you, i wouldnt pick both Skyrim and dark souls at the same time. Dont get me wrong they are both brilliant games but they both consume a lot of time and are both RPG. If i were you, i would go for Skyrim/Dark souls and Mofern warfare 3

    That way there would be a good mix between single and multiplayer.

    and for 55 euro, you should definitely be able to get 2 of those games (second hand). no problems.

    Peace

    Skyrim. If nothing else, for the amount of game you get for your money. Seriously, I bought it around the launch and I still haven't 100%'d it yet (and going by previous Bethesda RPGs, I probably never will).

    Get it on PC if you have that choice, there are loads of awesome mods available.

    Thanks guys,
    sadly my pc wont be able to handle skyrim
    everything on me pc is fully upgraded and able to handle any new games that come out except for my processer ha

    ive upgraded everything except that, turns out it will cost me just as much to upgrade that then buy a new pc ha

    at the moment im leaning towards skyrim :D have until tomorrow to decide ha

    Just a thought - there's a Steam sale incoming - probably next week. You could keep that €55 and you'd get a lot of games for it on the daily deals each day. Could end up with a lot more bang for your buck.

    Personally? MGS HD collection. It was only 35e in Tesco when I picked it up, save yourself 20e for another! AND it's three (well...five if you count them chucking in the original two) games in one!

    I would definitely wait until next week (Steam sale) but I if you have to get one tomorrow get Skyrim for sure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,643 ✭✭✭✭2smiggy


    Dark Souls IMO :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    Dark Souls and/or MGS HD.

    I found Skyrim boring after only a few hours, if you want that experience just get Oblivion dirt cheap somewhere and imagine the grass is snow :p

    This thread needs a poll :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Big Knox


    Well out of that list Dark Souls without a doubt. Skyrim gets boring very fast unfortunately. It's such a huge game but it is very very repetitive. Dark Souls will chew you up and spit you out but you will keep coming back for more and more and no other game gives you the sense of accomplishment like it once you start making progress and eventually finish it...... until NG+ starts and you realise it's not over at all, it's never over!!!!! :p

    You can't go wrong with the MGS HD collection either however!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,199 ✭✭✭muppetkiller


    I'd pick up Dark souls in Argos for 25 Euro and Mass Effect 3 for 19 :D
    Leaving you with a few bob for the steam sales.

    Agree with both these points.

    Haven't touched Skyrim since I finished the story and have had not even the slightest desire to go back. Somehow different to Oblivion and Fallout 3 ini a very sad way... :(

    BF3 used to be good IMO, but they patched it into oblivion, game-breaking bugs ignored and half-fixed, slow release cycle and lots of advertisement for the NEW DLC BUY THIS!!!! It will take a lot for EA-DICE to get my money again.

    MW3 looks like MW2 which was a crap version of CoD 4:MW. How can you have any faith in game devs who pump out a new version every year with little/no support.

    Bohemia, wow, there is a company for support, nearly weekly patches for ArmA 2 (released in 2009!)

    People seem to be saying Dark Souls, I've no experience with it, so yeah....

    Anyone know actually what price the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is in bricks and mortar stores? I know it can be got for ~£27 online but wouldn't mind having it for the weekend


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭mise


    Battlefield 3 is €30 in Gamestop at the moment, so i'd definitely recommend that. Some of the new updates annoyed me, but since I faourited DICE servers its fun again.

    And Dark Souls in Argos if its only €25.. well worth it

    I'd go for Skyrim & BF3.

    MW3 is fairly shíte, I traded it in after a week or two. It's the exact same as the past modern warfares.

    There's a lot of cool stuff to do in Skyrim too


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,307 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    Dark Souls, you shold have enough left over to buy Demon's Souls too.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 80,489 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sephiroth_dude


    So when is this "steam sale" starting :-P?
