@lazarus11 I would recommend it also, I paid 40 when I got it and was not disappointed so 25 is a steal

I have played and enjoy both, as well as many others that didn't get the award. Why do people take personally something that is completely arbitrary like an award? Players like your game. Players have bought your game. Don't act like you're the only developer that's put hard work and planning into the release of your game.

Getting Amaterasu in Astro Bot was one of my favourite moments of the year, and this announcement caps it off. Cannot wait!

This could be my holiday game of 2025 if it doesn't trip over itself in future reveals

I only recently played Astro Bot and I immediately got the hype, it was just pure gaming fun and celebration. Metaphor is my personal favourite of the year, so happy to see that get a few gongs, and Balatro is so addictive and succinct it had to be recognised as well.

@Nem I know, it was really just a testicle joke

@Vega37 others have gotten away with doing that exact thing. Temtem has cards, Coromon has spinning discs, Nexomon has 'nexotraps' (which are even red & white ffs) so it's not unheard of.

If the balls are a problem, simply remove the balls. Easy!

This and Sea of Stars are 2 of the best old-school RPGs of recent years, glad to see it getting some more content.

And I just started my third V, you do spoil me CDPR

@Cutmastavictory glad that's been sorted out, always risky with a brand new online game

I am tempted, but with the queueing issues and the fact it'll be free (and hopefully with much more added) when it hits full launch then I can't justify dropping money on it at the moment.

@Oram77 Not at all, I have the base game and not the DLC.

Though with the season pass being on sale at the moment I may pick it up.

Of course the month after I buy Temtem it drops on Plus. Ah well, it's a decent enough Pokemon clone, so with more people playing it'll be nice.

I'd definitely be interested for the right price. If it's too expensive then it's not worth getting over a Steam Deck or similar, but if they go the cheaper route it likely wouldn't be able to run the same games as whatever console they're on by then. It's a balance, but I will say I've played my Portal a lot more than I'd expected to, especially with a family sharing the main TV, so any way to make that more versatile and not so reliant on an internet connection would be appreciated.

@Darude84 That's my plan, don't want to pay more than I have to for it. Especially since I'm never 100% sure it will work well enough until I actually try it out.

This has me seriously considering going back up to Premium. Dropped to Extra as I wasn't making use of all the features and the classics catalogue, but with this opening up a lot more options for play on the go I may just have to go back.

Might have to upgrade to premium with the new update to the Portal and a discount.

Might go back and give Grime another go, it seemed interesting but I never really gave it enough time.

I'm in agreement, as much as I loved playing SotE it cannot be considered a separate entity as it's reliant on owning and having played a lot of Elden Ring. Give it it's own DLC category and it wins hands down, but would anyone say the Valhalla expansion from God of War: Ragnarok should be eligible for entry? It's technically got an even lower bar for entry considering it was also a free addition. No, because it's an add-on, not something that can be experienced as its own entity.

Easily my favourite AC game, but having completed it twice already do I really want to go back in for another go? Maybe.

Lego based on a game based on Lego of a game...can they make a game based on this Lego?

@Shepherd_Tallon thanks for the heads up, £24.99, I'll be having that then. Enjoy!

@Judal27 Ishin's not set in the same timeline so you'll be fine to play it with little knowledge. I jumping in and I've only played Like a Dragon.

Other than that I'll be trying Killer Frequency and Dying Light 2, I never stick with plus games to be honest though, likely be a 'try for a few hours and then give up' like most other months.

Looks great, but it's not available to buy for me (UK). Added to the ol' wishlist for when it is.

@Topov81 No, we must remove all straight lines, straight line bad!

@Dragon83 i'm hoping the same, but I'm happy with the PS4 version if it is too costly. It's Larian though, so I trust them to do the right thing.

I'm playing it, I'm enjoying it. Is it the best game ever? No. Is it worthy of being considered one of Bioware's best? Also no. But it's a solid game and definitely not a 0 or 1. At the same time, everyone is entitled to an opinion. It's almost like gaming is a very subjective media, who knew?

@ThomasHL I thought the same but you're right @Uromastryx it's about speccing the right way and using the systems. Now I'm eating through most things because I'm targeting then the right way.

The only thing I've come across so far is that changing vitaar appearance doesn't load properly, and Neve's skill points were reset at one point but it was fairly early on so no major issue. Sounds like this update targets those specifically anyway, other than that I'm loving the game.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Exactly, I want to know I can finish and get everything out of a game without having to wait and see if anything else gets added to make me reinstall (or buy again if I've got rid of a physical copy)

Loved Ghostwire: Tokyo when it was on Plus before, will likely go back in for the platinum. The first Hot Wheels Unleashed was great, have been tempted to bite on the second so glad I resisted.

Bioware should be pumping out 9s and 10s given what they were doing even 15 years ago. Glad to hear they're back on form though, will see how they've done for myself later this week.

I've recently started playing, and it's an ok experience so far. I love Star Wars and can look past many things to be in that world, but I really don't know if I like the game after 15 hours.

Yep, only seeing £10 for 2500 points. Hopefully it's just an error, but given what they're also changing about PS Stars I wouldn't be surprised.

Wasn't expecting to be able to try this out so soon, I'm ready to lose my life to Monster Hunter again.

Paid £20 for the complete edition on PS4, got the platinum, it was fun but it's not worth me paying any more to play it again. Does seem like they've done a lot of work to bring this up to more recent standards, but was it really needed at all? I'd argue no, but for a £10 fee it's better than reselling a game in it's entirety for full price cough*Until Dawn*cough

@CWill97 A fellow viewer of PS Access I see!

Seriously invested in this game, it looks so unique and stylish, hopefully the gameplay and story match that.

I am also a Transformers fan (if the profile pic wasn't a giveaway) and this has been on my radar, but a lot of games competing for my time and this is very expensive for what it seemingly amounts to.

Fingers crossed Reactivate is decent, and gets a PS5 release, if and indeed when it eventually reaches us.

This doesn't surprise me at all, had a mare trying to get a simple controller from them earlier this year, 2 orders cancelled immediately, one that should have been received, then when questioned why it didn't show another was 'sent' for next day delivery, then cancelled. Ended with a conversation with a manager and a £30 gift card. Won't order anything from them any more, only buy if I'm in store and know they've got it.

Love Atlus games, not a fan of their release practices, with the 'enhanced editions' normally not too far behind. I still couldn't help myself though, and I hate myself for it, but I'm loving it so far.

I can see why they've made the decision to remove them. It should be an option, but when you have a vocal minority saying "we won't play a game with spiders in" then it's not a big leap to remove them because you want their money as well, plus it's not as if people who don't have arachnophobia are saying "we won't buy the game if it DOESN'T have spiders".

Personally it makes no difference to my enjoyment of a game, but as I said, it should be an option. You don't order a burger as is and complain if there's cheese, you just request for it not to be there on your specific burger, so as not to impact others' experience or enjoyment.

@get2sammyb didn't want someone to look for it and be unable to find it is all, no worries

Persona 3 Reload isn't in this sale, that price is just from the last sale ending today. The deluxe edition is, but not the standard or premium editions.

Went for a teal controller, no plates as I've only got the original model, pity it's not coming until January (no idea why, but I'll likely forget I ordered it by then and it'll be a nice surprise)

@Shwing I know, how could the creators of item scarcity & panic-buying know people would be panic-buying because of the scarcity of the items?

I don't want (or more accurately don't need) the Pro, I just want to see if I can nab a Portal, but if not I'll settle for modding my existing one. Wish they could filter it by what you want to order, so the queues can be more specific to the popularity of the item.

GoT was epic, GoY will be just as epic, if not more so. The quality of the game itself will speak loud enough when it releases, and I absolutely cannot wait.

This has been one of my most anticipated releases this year, so to get hands on before dropping the money for it is even better.

@windxtravelerx I'm normally the same, performance mode is a must unless it's slower paced and I've not felt the need to switch back at all for this
