    This kinda stuff is just as tiresome as the stuff people 'complain' about.....

    I should add IMO...

    People adding 'IMO' is even more tiresome.

    Of course it's your opinion. We're all commenting on videogames, not publishing peer-reviewed articles.

    Well the amount of times people try to pawn their opinion off as fact means that sometimes i add it to posts.

    As for the original post i commented on,there are people in here that get triggered by any negativity and posts like the OP usually attract those people with negative opinions and we end up with 3 pages of the usual back and forth. Thats the reason i commented on it.

    Yeah this is a minor issue I have with this thread too. I don't mind it too much when people are getting bashed for constantly complaining about the games (some folk are never happy no matter what), but the new trend over the last few months is people bashing the complainers, before anyone complains at all. It's petty, and I got abuse for pointing it out before.

    My sentiments exactly.

    Rapture looks incredibly boring from the gameplay i've seen. Still a pretty good selection this month regardless.

    I thought it was too slow. Some like that though.

    Should be PS+ discussion thread,just sayin....

    We should probably have a PS+ bashing thread.

    Although I honestly can't remember the last time I was excited (or even got any use), out of the PS+ games.

    EGTTR is a fantastic experience , just don't think of it as a game , think of it as an interactive story and you'll be grand .

    Definitely well worth giving Actual Sunlight a go if you have a Vita and added it your library. Very short but don't think I've played any game (bar maybe the Beginner's Guide), even some ostensibly about similar subject matter, that's as frank and challenging. Powerful, artful stuff.

    Also enjoying Transformers Devastation. It's Bayonetta-lite for sure, and the somewhat baffling level layout betrays a low budget. But it feels like giant robots pummelling each other, and even a simpler, less unique take on Bayonetta has its appeal. Plus playing as Grimlock is a joy.

    It's a great experience but it can also feel like going for a long walk with your shoelaces tied :D

    Getting Yakuza 5 was a recent highlight.

    It seems like there's some decent offerings on the PS3 alright, but not on the PS4.

    If anybody is having trouble downloading everybody's gone to the rapture, add it to your wish list and from wish lists add to basket

    I did it through the app. I clicked on the heart symbol above add to basket to add it to my wish list. And then went to wish list


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,472 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    I tried the wish list thing from the app. In the egttr page, I click the heart but it just goes back to the homepage and not added to wish list. Bit of a weird one.

    That bmx game any good? Looks like a kiddies trials!

    This not a bit pricey in Tescos???

    Had a pic up of 12 month PS+ membership in Tescos - €59.99

    Not sure if it is a Tesco thing, but the price for 12 months has always seemed very static in b&m stores, Argos usually had a small discount, but nowhere charged more than €50.

    Yeah always €49.99 everywhere and I think €47ish in Argos. No idea why Tesco's would sell it €10 dearer, they must be catching someone out.

    I have to give a shout out for " Deadly tower of monsters " . It's a great game with some very funny moments .

    Good stuff, am starting it tonight after I finish EGTTR, hopefully it's a bit of a quicker game.
