    Nah, no need for the Ocarina of Time, a simple time machine will do.

    I missed it last time it was on sale, didn't want to buy it till it went on sale again. By all accounts, the single player is amazing. Well worth €12!

    Definitely worth it, the single player was fantastic!

    It's shocking to think that they didn't put single player in Titanfall 1 given that the campaign in 2 demonstrated so much pedigree.

    Swine. Saw the price you paid and just ordered it myself!

    I'm doing what I always do. Building a collection of games and not getting around to playing the majority of them. Bought the PS4 at Christmas and now have:

    The Last of Us
    The Last Guardian
    Just Cause 3
    Farcry 4
    Deus Ex - Mankind Divided, Grand Kingdom, RiME & Knack from PS Plus
    Horizon
    Journey
    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
    Metal Gear Solid V: Definitive Edition
    Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition
    Styx: Master of Shadows
    Super Stardust Delta
    Firewatch
    Abzu
    Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
    Titanfall 2

    I remember selling my Dreamcast, GameCube etc with huge amounts of games I never got around to playing!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,283 ✭✭✭fixXxer


    Start with Firewatch and Ground Zeros, there's about 4 hours combined to finish both of those :D

    You should probably spend more time playing games instead of spending the time buying them maybe :P

    Some great games in that list but I would start with Titanfall 2 (followed closely by The Last of Us). campaign is relatively short but brilliant. Multiplayer is sublime.

    Shame on you re: the dreamcast ;)

    "someone" created a thread tracking their progress completing games.

    That someone (me) has found it easier to stick with playing games to completion when you publicly set yourself a challenge (peer pressure n all that).

    Consider adding your own progress to the thread and keep at it as much as you can!

    I've cleared off 14 games since December. Gave up watching TV series though, except Black Mirror.

    The PS4's answer to silent hill 2 imo. Although obviously not as groundbreaking or important.

    Ended up picking it up along with the surge for 10 euro in gamestop,now that you mention it tried play through silent hill 2 hd but I left it after the apartments. Shocking amount of bugs in that game.

    That HD remaster was brutal. The game was (to some degree still is) amazing at the time, but it's just ridiculously aged at the stage. Still got a great story/soundtrack though.

    As an aside, I always think it's weird how poorly the majority of PS1/PS2 games have aged in comparison to those from the SNES/Dreamcast era. Some of those still look and play beautifully yet the old PlayStation games often play terribly and look atrocious. I suppose it's something to do with the increased complexity of the newer games, I feel like technology is only catching up with the ambition of those kind of games now. Would be cool to see how SH2 would actually turn out if it was being made for the first time now*...



    *Excluding tagged on multiplayer and DLC for each of the endings :pac:

    Just a head-up folks - You can get BF1 Revolution Edition and Titanfall 2 Ultimate Edition for ~€20 on the Singapore PSN store.

    Buy a Singaporean $30 PSN credit pack at Seagm for €19.69 ( + processing fees [2.9% + 30c]).
    They accept paypal, credit/debit card etc.

    Set up a Singaporean PSN account the same way you would a US/UK account, then use any valid postal address. I used a McDonald's address and it worked fine :).


    Apply the SGD $30 credit to Singaporean PSN account.

    Then use 15% discount code QHPHQQ7TKA to bring the game below $30 SGD.

    As long as your PS4 is set to primary for your Singaporean account, you'll now be able to play BF1 and Titanfall 2 online on your Irish PS+ account.

    I know, I really regret it now but at the time we rented and moved apartment almost every 12 months as herself always found something to dislike. Lugging it and everything else around in pre-car days was a pain in the behind.

    Most games now have a lot of content (ugh, hate that word). That doesn’t really mean anything in regards to its quality.

    Or you can just buy hard copies of the games for pretty much the same price off Amazon and not bother your arse jumping through all them hoops :rolleyes::D

    The same price? BF1 Revolution and a standard copy of Titanfall 2 (not the 'Ultimate Edition') would cost €42.77 to be delivered to Ireland.

    The PSN deal is for the 'GOTY' versions of the games for less than half that price. It really isn't that much effort to set up a Singaporean account.

    Smyths are currently taking pre orders of the Gold Edition of Far Cry 5 for €69.99, €64.99 if ordered in store or for click & collect.

    Great price considering this comes with the season pass which includes Far Cry 3 Classic.

    Fyi GameStop currently have the Deluxe Edition listed for €69.99 and the Gold Edition for €89.99.
