Give it 2 hours, you never know.
I think they are great games, story is a little dull, but you make your own fun

I'd second that on the Just Cause games. The combination of grappling hook/wingsuit/parachute mechanics seperate it from your average 3rd person action sandbox game. Driving is crap but using the mechanics mentioned is faster and more fun anyway.

Story and missions are about as generic as you'll get but when there's so many different ways to blow stuff up, I don't think it becomes an issue until for a good whiile. I mean, you can stick rocket boosters to cows and send them flying off over the horizon, what's not to love!?!:D

€30 in Smyths, €35 in GameStop. €55 in GameStop for the Gold Edition which includes Assassins Creed 3 on Xbox One when released. Not much in the way of digital offers atm.

Exact same here. I was so close to buying Odyssey digitally for €35 but decided that I'm not going to until I've at least beaten Syndicate.

Adverts. You can pick up great deals there.

Thanks but knowing how bad Xbox Controllers are made, I'd never buy one second hand. Could pick one up second hand for it to break months in, or it may already have a fault.

Bumper buttons and Analogue sticks are terrible in these controllers.

Funnily enough, I'm similar. I was expecting something like gears of war meets division, but it actually looks more like warframe.

Exactly and very Destiny aswell. I don't know what to do now.

Division 2 or Anthem. I wont have time to play both, so I have to pick one of them.

Cdkeys have Resident Evil 2 available for €43.29 and the Deluxe Edition for €51 saving nearly €20 on the marketplace prices if anyone is looking for it digitally.

I thought there was an open beta coming for all players. I believe the open beta is planned for Feb 1st. I am not 100% sure about a demo or if it is available to ea access players.

It says in the email "on or slightly before the release date".

I've a code for 3 months live for £10 instead of £15 on Amazon. Not sure if it's transferable but I won't use it if anyone wants to try it.
