@ThereThere As far as I see, if you’re a PS+ Essential member, you can’t just upgrade to Extra level for one month. I think you have to commit to upgrade to the whole duration of your sub, or not at all.
But now that I think about it, you aren’t a base Essential sub, if I remember correctly. So you could definitely just subscribe to the whole business for one month only and try to knock out Stray in one month.

Just picked up Owlboy, Godstrike, Hob and some arcade sim game that I’ve already forgotten the title of (I’ve had a few rum and cokes 😉… but I like the look of that Arcade Paradise game coming out in August and while looking through the sale, whatever this was called reminded me of it).
Just ordered Horizon Forbidden West for €20. Didn't realise that there's a PlayStation sale going on at retailers now and I saw that Forbidden West was only €20 so I just had to get it. What an absolute steal, especially when considering that the game only came out like six months ago. Can't wait to delve into it!
@colonelkilgore I remember Zero Dawn was like that as well and then it kept getting better and better. I've no doubt that Forbidden West will be great as well!
@RogerRoger Thanks mate! If it's anything like Zero Dawn but improved then I'll definitely be enjoying my time with Forbidden West.
Dragon Quest XI never played a Dragon Quest game before… and I don’t really click with turn-based combat but… it was cheap… and is very highly regarded.
@colonelkilgore I hope you will enjoy DQ11S. I also never was a big fan of turn based combat but since playing Yakuza Like a Dragon i don't really mind it anymore. DQ11s is a typical Old school JRPG, which i enjoyed very much. I can be a bit on the long side though, think i easily spend like 80 hours in it, But if you don't mind it, it is a very relaxing game in every form.
@Lavalera ahh that’s cool that you’ve come around to turn-based combat… maybe i should play Yakuza: Like a Dragon right sharpish to see if it’ll convert me too 😉
@colonelkilgore I don't know if you played the other ones, but if you like the style of the Yakuza games, I would highly recommend Like a Dragon. Funny thing is, Dragon Quest is mentioned a lot in Like a Dragon and the protagonist of LaD wants to be a hero like in the DQ series. So there even is a link between the games.
@Lavalera I’ve played Yakuza Kiwami (still have to go back and finish off the plat as it goes) and really liked it. And very serendipitous that about Dragon Quest being mentioned so much in Y: LaD.
Star Ocean: The Last Hope Remaster & Quake Remastered for just under a tenner.
Never played Quake before and I've only seen snippets of gameplay here and there over the years but I'm quite interested in giving it a shot.
As for Star Ocean: The Last Hope.. I've never played it back when it released on PS3 and I've never actually seen footage of it either.
I have played Til The End Of Time before (The 3rd Star Ocean game) and from what I understand LH has the same combat system as it (which I really quite liked) so I'm very interested in giving this a go.
I'm actually quite liking the look of the newest Star Ocean that's coming out in a couple of months too (The Divine force) and with LH being only £6 I couldn't help but buy it yesterday 😄

I ordered XIII the other day, off of the back of the article about the impressive PS5 optimisation. Well, it was under a fiver on Amazon and I thought nothing about it since… well, great way to start a weekend, it just turned up and it’s a spanking-looking steelbook! Absolute result 🥳
Just ordered Little Nightmares II and The Outer Worlds. I've had these games on my PS4 wishlist for a long time now and I decided to finally buy them today when I saw that they were €15 each. I liked the first Little Nightmares even though it could feel absolutely frustrating to play sometimes, and Obsidian makes great WRPGs, so I think I can expect good things from Outer Worlds.
@LtSarge Outer Worlds is good fun. I found it had some limitations in weapon choices and enemy types but I enjoyed the story and particularly liked the companions and their stories.
Not an overly long game either which is sometimes a bonus!
@Thrillho Yeah it's nice that the game isn't too long. Definitely going to give it a go whenever I'm in the mood for a relatively short RPG experience.
Indeed! But I feel like I'd rather have too many games to choose from than too few. I constantly have trouble deciding what to play, not because there are too many options but because I never truly know what I'm in the mood to play until I give it a try. So it's nice to start up a bunch of games and see which ones stick. Like right now, I'm rotating between Team Sonic Racing, Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance and Lego Batman. Basically more gameplay-centric titles, and it's a good mix of fun games.
@LtSarge The Outer Worlds is so good. I played through it last year and wondered why I didn’t play it sooner. I’m not even a big fan of the Fallout games, which it’s been compared to, but something about it just hooked me. Shame we’re not getting the sequel, but at least I still have the DLC to play at some point.
I have been eyeing up a physical PS4 copy of Deadpool for a while now… but it’s always so gosh-darned expensive due to the ‘low-ish’ number produced. Well I just pulled the trigger as the fact that it is absent from the little Marvel section of my game collection (Wolverine, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor: God of Thunder, Captain America: Super Soldier, Spider-man, Spider-man: Miles Morales, Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers) has been nagging away at me for a few months now. And £36 isn’t ‘that’ expensive I suppose.
@Bentleyma Sounds really promising then! Looking forward to giving it a go.
On a side note, it's a shame that The Outer Worlds DLC never get a steep discount. They've gone on sale so many times and it's always like 10% off or something. I've hold out on a GOTY/Complete edition but at this point I doubt they'll release one, so I decided to just go ahead and buy the base game.
@LtSarge The Outer Worlds: Board-Approved Bundle has the game plus the expansion pass with the two story based dlc's. It was only a digital release as far as I can see though.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
