    I have heard that it is really good, for that price I'm gonna go for it, it kinda reminds me of the old WWF games in the arcade and on the SNES

    Let us know your thoughts if you get a chance, thanks!

    Plague Tale is well worth playing at €15. Really enjoyed my playthrough last year.

    Great game, very unique setting. Well worth 15 quid.

    Has the absolute worst finale to a game I have ever played though, and its not even close.

    Is it just a multilayer or is there a campaign?

    It's designed as a co-op game, the campaign is the MP.
    Had a quick google, you can play "solo" offline with 3 AI helpers.

    I see the final fantasy 7 remake is down to €35, tempted at that price.

    if you enjoyed the original, it's worth it. It's a solid game on it's own right, but lord knows FF games never hold their value and you'll get it for under 20 in the next 12 months

    Anyone know where to get a 12 month sub for PSN discounted ? I had a look on CD Keys and Instant Gaming and both seem to be out of stock. Don’t want to be giving Sony €60 when I got it last year for €45 in their Jan sale.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,450 ✭✭✭Batesy


    Little Nightmares (Complete Edition) $7.49 on the US Store is a steal.

    Ah perfect, they must have just put that offer up as I was checking over the last few days and didn’t see any offer. Thanks for that!

    I bought one for PSNOW in November.

    Then I bought it again for €44.99 in the sale yesterday and it just added a year onto the end date of my subscription.
    It might work the same with PSPlus.

    It does.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,367 ✭✭✭JimmyVik


    It does.


    Thanks.

    Wasnt sure if it would.
    A friend just tried it and sais it wouldnt work. When he went to buy it it just said "Owned" and he couldnt add it to his basket.

    The Yakuza series is great value on the PS store sale at the minute. If anyone has been wanting to give the series a go now is the time.

    The remake of the original Yakuza game (Yakuza Kiwami) is €5.99.
    Kiwami 2 (Yakuza 2 remake) is €11.99
    The remastered collection (Remasters of Yakuza 3-5) is €29.99.
    Yakuza 6 is also only €11.99


    Selling the first one for only €6 is like a drug dealer giving the first hit for free to get you hooked :pac:

    Bought the 1st Kiwami on your recommendation. Now kinda expecting them all to show up on PSNow because that's roughly been my luck recently.

    Might sound like a stupid question but is it best to start at the first and work through?

    Don't forget about Zero.

    They're all on Game Pass if you have a sub for it on Xbox or PC. Remastered Collection goes up at the end of the month and 6 goes up in March.

    PS3 versions of 4 & 5 are all that’s up there at the minute.

    That is really daft considering a lot of them are 'Playstation Hits' titles.


    Kiwami 1, 2, Yakuza 6 & Zero are anyway as I have the physical hits versions of the 4.

    Of the 9 Yakuza games on PS4, including Judgment and the Fist of the North Star spin off, 3, 4, 5 and Judgment aren't on Hits.

    3-5 is sort of understandable since they were released as a collection. 3 games for the price of one was already a great deal without needing to make it a hits title.

    For some reason I had assumed all hits titles would be on PS Now, although I've never even looked at the catalog of games available on that service.

    Zero (released between Yakuza 5 & 6) would be considered a prequel as it takes place in the 80s before the events of the original Yakuza. For new players a lot of people recommend starting with Zero, but playing them in the order they are released is fine as well if a new player doesn't want to drop €20 on Zero instead of €6 for the original.

    3-5 were released separately on psn as well, though at €24.99 each there is no point in buying them when the collection is regularly reduced to €29.99.

    This happened to me before and i was able to cancel as it was inside my cooling off period. I received a full refund (they didn't even bother to charge me a few euros for the week i had it). Then i simply bought the annual subscription at the discounted rate.

    Thanks - Ive cancelled it. Says it can take up to 72 hours to refund. 25% discount runs out 10am on the 20th so hopefully will get the money back in time to get the discount.

    I had a look at my emails there and i had emailed on a Wednesday morning and got confirmation that i would get my refund on the Friday morning.

    So hopefully you hear back on Tuesday. :)


    EDIT: I didn't get the money back until 5 days after that but once i had confirmation i was happy to pay for the discounted offer.

    The offer of 25% off is only for people that don't currently have an active subscription. Load of balls tbh.

    Bought The Return of the Obra Dinn in this current sale. About 9 fates into it but it's a phenomenal game.

    I cleared that last week, what an absolutely incredible experience. It starts getting tricky about 21 fates in but stick with it, don't be tempted to drift off into other games as others have said, it's hard getting back to this. The fact that one person made it is just unbelievable.

    That's about as far as I got and haven't a clue as what to do next, so gave up and bought Darkwood.

    Refunded today direct to my playstation wallet. But now I cant rebuy on the playstation store or the ps app. All buy buttons for ps plus are not showing up. Oh dear maybe they are wise to people refunding and buying again.

    Edit: all good - add to cart button just appeared on ps store website on my mobile phone. Bought again for 45 euro. Nice one. Thanks 4goneConclusion.

    Noice, Yakuza 0 has gone down to a fiver. I've been saying it for a month but I'm definitely going to stop buying games now.

    That's so handy, I went through 23 pages this morning on psprices.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,484 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers

    Yeah I've started using this site to view all games on sale on one page instead of the multiple with psprices. I'd still use psprices as they show price history. Platprices is also handy to see prices on other region stores

    Does it show based on platform? PS4-only user here

    Not sure what the "Plat" column is for?

    It's to indicate if the game has a platinum trophy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,171 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Yeah it also gives you general idea of the game time and gives links to trophy guides too
