so i bought Andromeda, even though I still haven't beat any of the original 3 which i have downloaded on my ps3 lol.

Would I miss much from starting Andromeda story wise?

I kind of want to give it a shot without having to beat the trilogy.
It's a new story but you should finish the original trilogy first. :P They're not very long games if you don't do all of the optional galaxy exploration stuff. :)

But how is Shadow Tactics with a controller? I watched some reviews and they all were on PC. It looks very mouse + keyboard-ish

I've played the entire game with a controller and had no problems. There are really useful features that you unlock during the game, such as the planning of simultaneous attacks. But in this regard I'm probably not a good reference. I also play games like Surviving Mars only with a controller. :)

So do I understand it correctly, that Dirt 4 is the more accessible racing game compared to Dirt Rally?

I'm not a hardcore racing game pro, more the casual noob seeking some fun. And the prices are very tempting.

Yes Dirt 4 is far more accessible, it's a great game. Dirt Rally is amazing too but hard and great for sim fans and are serious enough you own a wheel. Get both.

Also; I've put over 50hrs into Onrush, just online. I play it daily it is phenomenal, fast, destructive and the physics are an arcade burnout/motorstorm treat.

It's a DEAL. Honestly if you like arcade racers... forget the finish line this is more fun. I'm a different way.

Praise Codies they nailed it, it will catch on.

Add me to team up ManeKast. I play daily. Let's team up.

Can't tell if it's a practical joke Persona 5 always having an amazing discount on ps3, but hilariously bad on ps4.

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME

Hmm, I got persona 5 ultimate edition for 400 NOK (approx €40) back in november 2011..
I see they have the exact same discount today (50%), but you might be looking at an even steeper sale?
The PS3 version is ridiculous though @ 130 NOK for the ultimate. Also it doesn't run too bad according to DF so you could get this version :)

Decided to rebuy Hitman 2016 and, damn, I forgot how good this game was. Glad I bought it because I'd have been waiting a while (if ever) to have a chance to play it again on PC.

Andromeda...picked it up last sale for $12 and really regretted it.

Because it's probably not even worth half of that to me. The only character I liked is Peebee, the protag is wooden and one dimensional as all hell.

Yesterday I played through the first three hours of ME: Andromeda ... I already uninstalled it. Instead, I now explore Bohemia and look forward to tonight. Imo, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is light years better. In the first five minutes dialogues and characters are already on a different level.

Anyone rate Spintires?

Looks like a full-on off-road sim and a nice change of pace from GT Sport.

Thats a shame, you havent given it enough of a chance yet really, 3 hours doesnt get you far in that game.

It's ridiculous the price difference between Persona 5 PS3 and PS4. I think I got Persona 5 complete for PS3 in a sale for something like 25€? Can't remember, but the PS4 Complete is 50€ which is insane considering all dlcs are totally useless, being some additional Personas or costumes (which in my opinion are much worse than the vanilla costumes of the game).

And another bullshit is the fact dlcs are not cross-buy too: Persona 5 offers the option to save your game online, and you can switch between the PS4 and PS3 version, but to do so you need to have the same dlcs on both platforms, this means you need to purchase all of them again even if you own the Complete on a platform.

Yep nothing interesting and the newly added games already had the same sales in the past or even better ones (Enter the Gungeon or The Final Station were offered for less).

I considered Furi but I don't need it right now. I'm trying to keep my backlog small and I'm sure the version with the DLC will hit that price at some point

For those interested Persona 5 on PS3 is solid, also I never experimented those loading times described in the Digital Foundry video, my game loads instantly, no way a loading takes 6 seconds as they told.
But my version is digital, maybe it's that? Maybe they tested the version on disc? I don't know.

Gonna second this, the loading times are very reasonable. I had a blast playing Persona 5 on the PS3.

Just downloaded the Dishonored 2 demo because that offer on the entire series was tempting me and...

...why does this feel so horrible? Camera movement seems to be a gradual ramp up to full speed instead of the normal movement you'd expect. It feels like I'm moving my character's head through a bowl of syrup.

Baffles me that it's been this long since the console FPS control scheme was invented and some developers still can't seem to get it right. I just hope that there's been a patch or something because I'd love to play 1 again and 2/Death of the Outsider for the first time.

Agree. I tried the Dishonored 2 demo too but it just felt far too janky for my liking, a bit like those early Bethesda games.

TLOU and U4 have just gone up on PS Prices, both £15.99

Annoying as TLOU has been cheaper before but think that is the cheapest I've seen U4

Edit: Bloodborne too, same price, has also been cheaper before

Might be a first party sale

Might be 1 of those buy 2 get 1 free or whatever they do every now and then. That TLoU price isn't great.

Yeah it could be, we've not seen one of those in a while

Ratchet & Clank was also added at £15.99 (and like the others has also been cheaper before) so might well be first party sale
