2350% of 5 people isn’t a lot.

Let alone the fact this will be a couple of days boost before it drops to nothing.

$50 or 10% is humongous?

We clearly live in different worlds!

(Goes without saying any savings across any consoles are good)

There’s so many at the minute. So some variety again would be nice.

Problem with many of them is they just aren’t great? Many have a lot of jank and are just a poor fromsoft game. Obviously some are good.

But yes variety please. I just roll my eyes when I read souls like.

@naruball I think we are talking at cross purposes and I didn’t explain myself well.

Vr2 doesn’t have the titles that will get casuals to buy it.

Wii/u does have titles that interest casuals, Mario etc

@naruball I’m not really following your point.

Casuals didn’t race out to buy the Wii/u at £500 then spend another £500 ontop

@OldGamer999 problem with Demo booths (I agree would be good)

They would just get trashed or stolen. So too much hassle these days

@naruball the Wii had Mario kart, Zelda and so on

@dschons quite simple really.

No games appeal to the casual masses. Until there is a fifa/CoD that kinda huge game casuals aren’t going to sink another 300-500 into
Gaming.

So Sonys current biggest live service game decides to drop its biggest update in weeks a couple of weeks prior to their newest one seems not the best timing for concord.

@get2sammyb but you are ignoring the fact that fallout had good brand recognition and sold well.

NMS may not have had brand recognition but it was something different at the time there was less live service games out there.

They were only able to continue because they initially sold well. Had they not sold they would have been dropped.

Not to mention the fact there are far more live service games now that are working well. You release a dud, people try it, realise it’s not very good and just return to the one they like.

I’ll wait till Black Friday. Get it for £30. And time to sort some launch issues out too!

Thankyou to all the people paying silly money for the early access editions and so forth to help identify the issues!

Damn haters.

Or maybe it’s just all been done before. For free. So what’s the incentive to drop £40 on it?

I don’t think it will even have a hardcore player base to keep it going for long.

@Max_the_German

If they don’t advertise they won’t make a dent into the competition. People buy the brands they see in adverts.

For me it’s more Xbox just doesn’t care much outside of the America’s.

They have just released GP on fire stick. Yet how many parents or casuals would know? Unless they show people the product they won’t know.

I’ll give this a try when it hits EAplay in 9months or so, I’m not a big nfl fan but have enjoyed the odd bit of madden over the years

I’ll be giving it a try in the coming weeks as it is on GP.

Sorry guys. I got all the haters together and we caused this.

My bad.

@breakneck oh per month then yeah that’s like minimum wage.

But still ps5 is affordable

@Steel76 don’t forget MS also raised prices, because at least this time round there was a genuine reason.

But yeah they could perhaps be dropping to at least the original price.

@breakneck your math can’t possibly be right.

60k yen is roughly £300

300k yen is roughly £1500

They have to earn more than £1500 a year.

I keep going to pick this up as it’s £15ish.

But I just know it’s going to head to plus at some point soon.

The lack of big hitting console releases will account for some of this.

But it’s only natural after selling 50million that it will start to slow.

Well this and the capcom game shall be tried on GP in the coming weeks I guess.

@themightyant his comment was a year ago.

Probably different prices elsewhere, I’d shop around as most of these games have been similar prices on other sites.

@REALAIS @ATaco the flag was probably just a placeholder in some concept art for internal use only, most likely human error just left it in.

There’s nothing about the game that is real but there is 0 harm using real world items to build that world up.

@YoureTooSlowBro im certain I wouldn’t like being kicked in the di**. Dont need to try it to dislike it.

Many people know what they like from videos, watching others play etc. everyone has different tastes on what games they enjoy.

@Kidfried yes that is what it is in for.

Average game will get what it deserves.

Nothing inherently bad about it, but there’s nothing really different or substantial to it that isn’t already out there, for free.

This is not a HD2.

@Mintie @dskatter yeah I have the free trial and play a little here and there. But I dunno I just feel like it’s something I should have played years ago.

I will keep plugging away tho thanks!

I really Want to get into this as I love FF.

It’s just now so huge and daunting to begin and I’d imagine a massive time sink too

@Jacko11 @Toot1st there is probably a degree of accuracy to to Jacko point.

The costs of the day 1 games being produced then put on GP won’t have any of the development budget/marketing etc as part of the gamepass costs.

The development costs are buried elsewhere

Let’s be honest.

Within 3 months Sony will raise prices.

Also Sony can’t afford to do.

Oh good. A new way to screw more money out of gamers.

How about a day pass? Or pay $1 every time you load the game.

1. Rebirth
2. DD2
3. Unicorn Overlord

This is the one on GPU? Probably try it there I think

@Yousef- careful with the ‘discounts’ these just seem to be the same price they drop to every other week

Just a heads up for those that have a disc drive -

Lords of fallen/P3 can both be found cheaper physically (of the ones highlighted)

Also I think there is a deal on with P5/4/3 for about £40

@Northern_munkey I think he meant the launch of cyberpunk2 (or whatever it’s called) will be bad on ps6 and good on 7.

Like the original with ps4/5

@BAMozzy once again you really aren’t understanding live service.

So I’m Not going to get into an argument over it.

@BAMozzy then you clearly do not understand live service games.

Even CoD see’s a huge drop off.

It’s a shame it isn’t getting a sequel. It was a solid, if unspectacular 8/10 for me.

Story a little meh, little long. But had a pretty good open world and the hordes were good.

Sadly took a little too much criticism for having a white biker protagonist who could be a bit of a d**k

@Andee the always online will most likely never change.

There’s 0 reasons to spend money on MTX etc. of course without spending you will have to run more races to get your money.

I certainly wouldn’t miss out the game over the worry of mtx

@Rich33 unless you go for a PS studio/Nintendo game day 1 it’s generally better to wait. Those 2 seem to usually have better quality control etc

As an upfront I do not nor will not play gta online.

But seriously this is nothing new? Often the quicker options are done via a season pass/dlc/purchasables in many games.

I still buy and play from games but absolutely they can put me off.

Sometimes I enjoy the mauling I’m getting. But then well I game to have fun. And if the difficulty is making it less fun then it will drop down the pile.

And now especially with GPU/Plus there’s so many other games I can go enjoy. (Then swing back round to the difficult one).

I am in the camp of - single player only - should have difficulty setting. Player A can ‘git gud’ etc and play on the intended settings. Where’s player B can tailor it to their level.

Means both player A and B can enjoy the game. It also doesn’t spoil each other’s experience. Because a difficulty setting doesn’t diminish anything for other people

100 pages! Wow game is doomed.

Or 99% won’t notice. Or care.

Like every social media drama

More Elden ring !!! Positive.

Familiar = negative.

How in any world does that make sense?!

@Anti-Matter says in the article that they are 60fps

@SJH thanks for that

Do you have to play the first one to understand the second?

Probably not going to have time to play both.

@__jamiie but how can they add the Nintendo direct into the conversation when it’s not been held?

Didn’t see Ubisoft.

Sony/SGF had a few interesting things.

But Xbox had overall the best show, even if some were further away.
