Big Fresh Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I loved what I played of Sonic Generations, and I'd like to finish it.... If it was $5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I've dipped into Sonic Generations twice now. Both times, I lose interest when the nostalgia wears off. I think it's a pretty solid game from what I played, but it had a hard time holding me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew POE! Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I ended up buying most of the PS4 games during the sale and also got Spelunker HD Ultimate (FINALLY), Ninja Gaiden 3 RE, EDF Insect Armaggedon, Toy Story 3 and some other PS3 PSN games. Gotta hunt them trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I've had Spelunker HD for ever and its a great game. Exactly *How* hard are the Ninja Gaiden games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Is Hotline Miami worth taking a look at? I know people praise it a lot/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hotline Miami definitely has a learning curve, but once it clicks, it's an absolute blast and probably one of my favorite sub-$10 games. But it's frustrating as hell. You will die. A LOT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The tutorial/prologue kicked my ass hard enough to make me give up and delete the game, twice. A full 2 years after j bought the PC version and over a year after getting the Playstation ports, I finally sat down and hammered away at that shit for a full two hours til I finally understood the game's rhythm well enough to survive and I immediately became a fan.

Neil Koch Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The controls are kind of sloppy, but it's a fun game. Really good soundtrack too. Definitely worth $4. Don't forget all the GTA games are on sale until 4/20. Thought about picking up some of the PS2 classics, but I'd probably be just as well off hooking up an old PS2 to play them. At least they don't look like they've been updated looking at youtube clips. You can use the upscale feature on the PS3 and it makes the graphics look better (except for the Stories games - those still look like total ass). I don't have a PS3 anymore, but I think they have Spotify on there so you can use that as the in game music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomAct Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I finally got Retro City Rampage and Beyond Good & Evil HD. Also remembered that I didn't have Sonic 4 Ch. II, so got that as well. Not bad for $12. Love flash sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Sonic Generations for $12 is not that great of a deal.... Sonic Generations falls in the same category of indefensible games I love unconditionally, with Splatter house PS3. It's totally defensible. Best platformer of last generation, IMO. The 2D levels were solid, though Sonic felt heavier than he normally feels in his 2D games. The 2.5D was pretty much a great experience, like if you made F-Zero into a platformer. The little minigames and time trials were annoying sometimes, especially that one with Vector and the musical note, but between the different levels, the amazing soundtrack, the unlockables, the ability to customize your Sonic with special abilities, and the platforming itself, it was pretty amazing. Even critics liked it. Not indefensible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Sonic Generations was gonna be the great turnaround for Sonic..... And then Sonic Boom happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirSmUgly Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I picked up Strikers 1945 PLUS Portable and Blazblue: Continuum Shift Extend in the Golden Week sale. For the latter, I realized only too late that I can't even play BlazBlue on a regular-ass controller with normal size pad and sticks, so I don't know what the hell I'm going to do trying to play it on Vita. It's not exactly UvMC3, SFxT, or MK9 when it comes to ease of control on that tiny pad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 On one hand, yup, no AAA titles. On the other, five PS4 games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I played a bit of Guacamelee over Steam. Great game, but I'm going to re-start on PS4 since I prefer to game there over PC except for a couple of genres. Hohokum looks interesting, too. Nothing else looks particularly good, but maybe one of these other games will surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Guacamelee is fantastic. I picked it up on Games with Gold awhile back though (and it was the first game in our Let's Play channel). I need to get back to it. Someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew POE! Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 PS Golden Week (Japanese holiday) flash sale until 5/4 with discounts on Japanese-themed games. This is basically Andrew POE!'s Favorite Games Sale. The weirdo basement dwelling games that you don't want to admit to liking in public. Oh and Metal Gear Rising is $8 and Suikoden II is $4. The problem is you'll be giving Konami money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 MGR is a damn fun game, it cannot be overstated. Total steal for $8. I will take another one of those games whenever they wanna give it to me. Just hopefully it'll be a little longer this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 On one hand, yup, no AAA titles. On the other, five PS4 games! I hope this means they finally patch Race the Sun. It's been acting really weird a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'm pretty excited to see Guacamelee on the list, definitely downloading that. Unfinished Swan seems semi-interesting and worth checking out. Hohokum was free before and it's a fun little game to fuck around with. Not sure I'd buy it, but for free you can't go wrong. Will need to see what the other two are like.

Neil Koch Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 There's a new F2P game on PS4, Airmech Arena. Played a little bit and it seens fun - pretty much "inspired" by the Genesis game Herzog Zwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
