    But where is the free? You are spending your credit, which you have to pay for?

    When you top up by 20euro you get Free Data, Free Texts, Free 3 to 3 calls... As I don't really need anything else it's perfect for me to use the 20euro to buy games credit...

    I wish this worked in the UK. You top up by £20 but then have to buy the data/mins/text bundle for £20. Think it's time I moved home, seems like the only logical thing to do

    Anyone know is it possible to unlock trophies when a game is free to play?

    The game is only 13.49 in Argos atm. Worth a punt?

    I bought the full game and season pass at launch and still haven't played any of the DLC. Saying that I really did enjoy it and got my monies worth out of it.

    I did find the micro management of gear to be a bit tedious and found I had to be 'switched on' to play.

    For that price definitely! I played through the main story mainly by myself and I enjoyed it a lot.

    Nope. At least, not when I did other games. (Overwatch, ESO etc.)

    Absolutely, I played the campagin in single player. I was always way below friends levels to play proper co-op and didn't like playing with stranger bar a few missions that were fairly tough solo. Can get repetitive but well worth it for that price anyway.

    Its for girls who are 8 and 10. It'd be great if i can get bundle with Minecraft and a controller :)

    You won't find a bundle with Minecraft as the game is quite old now.

    Only third-party sellers now have it on Amazon so you can get it there or pick it up in local stores, Argos etc.

    Standard black controller is £39.99

    New Sony PlayStation DualShock 4 - Black

    As for the console , personally I would feel safer with the refurb version as supplied by Amazon rather than a used unit from a third-party seller.

    So that would be approx. £260 / €306 for the lot.

    The unit I got from Amazon was labeled as used but it hadn't been touched - the packaging had been slightly damaged. I couldn't vouch for any of the third party sellers though.

    Picked up a PS4 remote in Argos a couple days ago & it seems decent.

    Buttons do exactly the same as a controller. Works with Youtube, Twitch & Sky Go with no problems so far.

    Argos link - €12.99

    Its £19.99 on Argos UK so possibly a misprice. £19.90 on amazon.

    Yeah, I posted this about a week ago. Been using it since, it's handy out especially for not wasting the controller battery.

    Why can't you just use your TV remote ? :confused:

    Ok not perfect but still better than another remote lying around :D

    My TV doesn't have that HDMI cec feature so that wouldn't work for me.
    That remote also has the PS menu button so it's easy to switch between apps.

    You'd gladly get one that does if you had a little one that likes to steal remotes and let the dog have his way with them

    I picked that remote up too. It works fairly well. It saves on my family constantly dropping my PS4 controller to constantly dropping this remote. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,845 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    I got it... it works well although takes a little "training".

    There isn't an obvious "rewind / pause" button (also things like the left arrow & red square button are so close together you can sometimes hit the wrong one)

    Main benefit is that it doesn't use the controller, but it isn't as intuitive as I originally thought it would be.

    Where do you get cheap PSN credit - I'm afraid I'll buy UK psn credit and it won't work on my Irish account.

    Thanks

    It's not as good as the Witcher and the voice acting is a bit "wooden" but it's an excellent game and we'll worth playing.
