Shadow Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I was considering picking Tales of Xillia up. Any opinions on it? So far I am really liking it. The loading speed of this game is amazing. I also really like the unique look of the animation. The voice acting for Jude, one of the main characters is pretty good, where I am not quite as enthused about Milla's, the other main character. Linked combat is really fun and I just scratched the surface because of work last week. I definitely would say this is worth a 10 buck pick up.

Adam Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Heads up for the European guys: Free February 2014 Europe Releases PlayStation 4: PS4 owners, make sure you pick up the simply terrifying Outlast from the team at Red Barrels*, from 5th February. You’ll take on the role of independent journalist Miles Upshur. Acting on a tip from an inside source, you break into Mount Massive Asylum, an abandoned home for the mentally ill in the mountains of Colorado, hiding shocking, unnatural secrets. Once inside, your only hope of escape lies with uncovering the horrifying truth at the heart of Mount Massive. Will you make it out alive? Playstation 3: If Outlast wasn’t scary enough for you then why not immerse yourself in the haunting, desolate ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow in Deep Silver‘s terrifyingly adventure Metro: Last Light. Picking up from the cataclysmic events of Metro 2033, returning hero Artyom is now a Ranger, and D6, the secret underground vault discovered at the tail end of the last game, is your new ‘safe’ haven. Chock full of food and supplies it’s become the Metro system’s most coveted station city. Unfortunately for you, that also means you’re now squarely in the crosshairs of the underground’s more hostile inhabitants… Next up, the winner of over 85 awards – BioShock Infinite! You assume the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the flying city of Columbia on a rescue mission. His target? Elizabeth, imprisoned since childhood. During their daring escape, Booker and Elizabeth form a powerful bond – one that lets Booker augment his own abilities with her world-altering control over the environment. Together, they fight from high-speed Sky-Lines, in the streets and houses of Columbia, on giant zeppelins, and in the clouds, all while learning to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities. and finally PS Vita has Dynasty Warriors Next and Modnation Racers: Road Trip. In summary: Leaving PS Plus: 29th January: DmC Devil May Cry 29th January: Remember Me 29th January: Soul Sacrifice 29th January: Blazblue Continuum Shift Extend 29th January: GTA Liberty City Stories PSP 5th February: Don’t Starve 5th February: RESOGUN Entering PS Plus: 29th January: Metro Last Light 29th January: BioShock Infinite 29th January: Dynasty Warriors Next 29th January: ModNation Racers: Road Trip 5th February: Outlast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 This week's update for North America: Free - Smart As (Vita) - Hey, look, a brain trainer on the Vita, roughly 57 years after Brain Age on the DS. Even if I had a Vita, I'd pass. Discounts - a whole bunch of Final Fantasy-related discounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Sorry if this is way late, but i'm REALLY enjoying Far Cry 3. First game in ages where i've started playing and then realised its 3 in the morning and I thought it was about 11pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Koch Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Far Cry 3 was really fun besides the inane borderline racist story. Normally I'm not big on stealth or sniping in games, but I really liked taking that approach through the game. I just played through Blood Dragon and that was really fun as well. It's currently on sale on PSN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I am VERY curious to know whether the free SFxTekken download for Vita will come with the free unlock for the twelve DLC-gated chars for PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 February in North America: - Outlast (PS4) - Payday 2 (PS3) - Metro: Half Light (PS3) - Remember Me (PS3) - Street Fighter X Tekken (Vita) - Modnation Racers: Road Trip (Vita) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Metro is FUCKING AWESOME. I'm looking forward to Remember Me because it got a ton of hype, then got not exactly lambasted, but not really loved either and seemed destined for PS+ and the bargain bin. Of the two, I prefer PS+ since there's no out of pocket cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 Any of the PS3 games worth checking out? Metro and Payday 2 are both supposed to be very good. Remember Me - which got a 5.9 from IGN - sounds like a missed opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 This week in North America: Free: Outlast (PS4) - First-person survival horror game. I may grab this just to have another PS4 game but...yeah, not really my thing. Metro: Last Light (PS3) - Another FPS but supposed to be great. Will give this one a shot at least. Discounts - basically nothing other than some game named Dustforce for the Vita. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 This week's update: Free - Payday 2 (PS3) - Uh, yeah, I'll be getting this one. Discounts - TxK (Vita) - the Tempest clone/update is discounted. A couple other discounts as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimoDANK Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I've had ps+ for a couple years now and I'm well past the point of having full hard drive issues. At least you can delete and redownload games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's currently on sale on PSN. Finished it now my PS3 is working again. I noticed in a shop in town today that Far Cry 2 was on sale at like £3. Didn't get it as there was more than one copy buried there, but is it recommendable at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Koch Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I liked it, but there are a lot of annoying parts like guns that constantly break down and respawning guard posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 This week's update for the US: Free - Remember Me (PS3) - Action/fighting game that got mediocre reviews - Street Fighter x Tekken (Vita) - Have heard this is great. Wish the PS3 version was free Discounts - Gunslugs (PS3) - Yawn. Yet another side-scrolling "retro" style game with 8/16-bit graphics. Whoopdeedoo. Yeah, this week's a miss for me. Oh well.

Cliff Hanger Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I'm still inordinately curious (given I own the game on both systems) to know whether the Plus version of SFxT comes with the free code for $20 worth of PS3-version DLC that buying it got me.

Domino_Not_Deuce Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Remember Me has some interesting mechanics and some enemy designs that keep you on your toes and I remember thinking it was nowhere near as mediocre as made out. It certainly isn't a world changer but for free, it's worth a weekend's playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Koch Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Pretty good sale on Rockstar games. Some PS3 stuff as low as $5 and PS2 games for $2.50. I got Midnight Club LA Complete, Manhunt, and Bully for $10 total. Max Payne 3 and Undead Nightmare are some of the other $5 PS3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimoDANK Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 SF vs Tekken for Vita is exactly the type of game that makes me love ps plus. I've played the shit out of the console version and toyed with the idea of buying the Vita version. Remember Me and Metro are similar. Games I wanted to play but hadn't bought yet.

RandomAct Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Just saw that Bioshock Infinite was free as well. I recently replaced my dead PS3, and was thrilled to see that there were 5-6 games for free that I was legit interested in playing. Heard Tomb Raider(2013) will be next month.

Doubting El Dandy Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Can I parse out the download for for Uncharted? Really want to play it but the bundle appears to come with a bunch of shit I'm not interested in? Seeing as how I've only got about 40GB left on my drive at the moment, Id really hate to take up all that space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah, you can grab just the single player, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
