    Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2 for €1.19 is by and far the best deal on that list. It's normally €39.99 and is a fantastic beat em up.

    Seconded, it is an excellent and beautiful game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,891 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    Day of the Tentacle for just over €2 is also essential

    Anyone know has this been in stock recently?

    Cant get to an Argos to collect a copy. Too far with restrictions. Trying to get a copy delivered.

    Personally I would wait and see what they are doing about a PS5 version, it’s got to be right around the corner.

    Oh I just assumed since they already patched in the haptic feedback for ps5 that a 60fps update wouldn't be far behind. Never considered a full ps5 remake. Will wait a while so but would like to be playing it before the summer.

    They actually didn't patch haptics into it, that was a weird rumour that has no basis in reality, I took it as fact too until someone on here corrected me.

    I reckon if they were going to do a quick update to 60 FPS, they would have done it by now. I think its getting a top to bottom update and will be sold as a separate PS5 game with the new multiplayer included.

    Thanks for the info. I didnt get a ps4. Did Sony offer any kind of upgrade offer for TLOU remastered if you already owned TLOU?

    I think I will just go ahead and get the ps4 disk. I am not that bothered about the online play.

    So got on to eneba chat to ask why they have constantly been out of stock of Irish PSN credit and PSPlus. Couldn't get a straight answer but looks like there is nobody supplying it anymore for now.

    I wonder if lockdown could be the cause of it. Only guessing but what if all these psn key suppliers buy the physical cards in store and then sell the codes on key sites like cdKeys and eneba and with stores closed now there is no supply. Gamestop and Smyths only sell the digital codes online.



    i've turned on notifications for 365 days PSPlus and €50 PSN credit for Ireland on Eneba so if they come into stock I'll get an email and will post it here too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    Yesterday I was really hoping Avengers was on sale..

    Today I see its 25euro from Smyths with a free ps5 upgrade...

    Give it another few months, and i'm sure you can swipe another €15 off the asking price

    Yeah agreed, as a huge marvel fan, I completed it and afterwards felt cheated.. Its repetitive and disappoints

    It will go free some day, even then I wouldn't recommend playing it. Monstrosity.

    It’s no god of war or last of us but to be fair, I know some characters are quite generic and the enemies repetitive but there’s a half decent single player story there, just buried under the top layer of junk. Worth it for around €20 or less.

    Devs are trying to improve the game, but it’s fundamentally FUBAR I think I’ll go the way of Anthem.... want to be excited for insomniac Spider-Man making an appearance but I’ll reserve myself until I see it. Still I think I wouldn’t play it if it was free is quite harsh in my opinion

  • Registered Users Posts: 153 ✭✭BLUEYK


    Excuse my silly question here but do I need to download these 9 free games to the console now to keep them or once I add them to my ps store account library I keep them there forever and can download whenever I want?

    Once you add to library its yours. You will get a "thank you for your purchase" email from playstation. Then you can download whenever you want.

    The Subnautica theme is pretty good too...music is funky plus lots of fish floating in front of my icons


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    Played a bit of Avengers just the campaign and so far so good... I don't see why it wouldn't be worth the 25euro...I've spent more money on worse titles...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,312 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    PS Now 1 month for $1 on US store until March 29th

    https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/1375532228264910849

    I logged on to my US account to see and I can see the offer there.
    Didn't buy it yet, so can't confirm if it works


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,910 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Hopefully same offer comes to Europe as i believe you need a us cred card for subscriptions?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,312 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Had credit in my account so tried it and it went through. Just trying a PS3 game now to see how it plays

    I think i have a couple of dollars on mine as well so let us know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,312 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Tried Heavenly Sword which is working okay from what I can tell. Thought it might be bad lag if it was using US servers, but if there is lag, it's not noticeable.
    I am on SIRO so good connection.
    Didn't try any PS4 games to see if any trouble downloading but wouldn't say there is.
    For a dollar it's worth trying it even if only play 1 or 2 games in the month.
    I turned off auto renew.
    Of course there's the 7 day trial if you just want to try out PSNow


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    Hitman 3 €40 in Smyths on PS4 also comes with free PS5 upgrade. So glad I still went with the disc console. €75 on PSN.

    Maybe its a coincidence but Smyths, Argos and Currys have all restored the price of TLOU2 ps4 disk to 60 euro. Damn. I saw this at 18 euro in Argos but couldn't to a store to collect. Looks like you could well be right about ps5 version soon.

    It is inevitable, they will launch it when the multiplayer is ready. I'm thinking it will be June.

    Hitman 3 first level free until April 5th

    https://twitter.com/IOInteractive/status/1376881901537947649


    Also means the VR mode is free

    Plus I *think* you can play all Hitman 1 + 2 levels too if you have them... not sure if you can play those in VR too?

    It's a fantastic game. Playing it all week.

    Has the base install without Dubai always been free?? As in, could I always have downloaded this to play my Hitman 1 levels in VR?


    Edit: ah no my bad...the starter pack is new as of today

    Dirt Rally 2.0 Game Of The Year is €13.74 on the Playstation Store. Well worth the asking price for a brilliant game.

    Dirt Rally plus PSVR Bundle is €7.49. That game is excellent in VR.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭bmorrissey


    Anyone play dead rising 4? Any bit as good as the first two games? On sale for 10 euro

    The only way to purchase from Turkey store is by using crypto pay card. Revolut disposable visa doesn't work anymore as disposable cards are now MasterCard. Honestly I'd get it from the US store as you can get psn credit with lot less hassle. US sale not live until 5 but I'd assume the game will be on sale there too
