I don't enjoy watching cutscenes without actually playing the game It's only 25sgd for legendary edition, physical. Dumb AI good for me, noob in fighting games.

So anyone bought tsushima?

[arcana75]

Not me, I enjoying Days Gone.

[overhype]

Did you buy from that shopee seller?

I'm dragging myself to plat ff7r

[arcana75]

I bought from Shopee but is legit vendor S$39.90 brand new with pre-order code still intact (which is nearly useless, one of the more useless PO codes for "starter gear").

Days Gone is damn impressive. I guess it came out super buggy so kenna slammed but one year later with so many patches it's amazing. Such a big world, good story, many hours of gameplay (Ubisoft AC levels of length but not nearly as repetitive), amazing graphics and attention to detail for an aging console.

Singapore prices for games really suck. After so long still 40$. I bought it last black Friday from amazon at 19.99usd.

Played it for a day last week.

Now no such good deals liao. Must add S$20 for shipping. If buy through sg prime, not alot of titles available. If you don't care about dlc, best is to buy r2 physical disc directly from uk web store, free shipping.

Days gone is on sale $19 to $24, local psn

[arcana75]

I had a code so I paid S$16 for the Shopee disc. But Days Gone is well worth the money it's a massive pity it didn't get higher scores. I recommend it over Ghosts of Tsushima & Last of Us 2 right now, esp with such low price it's a no-brainer.

It's also a straightforward no missable everything can be obtained after story cleanup plat for those interested.

Latest crying on the internet. Spiderman is exclusive dlc character in Avengers game.

And also ps4 controller cannot be used on ps5 if playing ps5 games. Can only work for ps4 games on ps5. Other authorized assessories like fight sticks and driving wheels all can regardless of ps4 or ps5 games.

I saw these 2 points from the AJS News video.

All straight sour grapes BS from the xbots or people who have some implicit bias towards xbox. Exclusive characters are not new, look at Soul Calibur for earlier examples, not to mention different pre-order bonuses. Paying for exclusive content, exclusive titles, timed exclusives are part of the market share game, gotta grow up and out of the entitlement.

The PS4 on PS5 controller thing is also bullshit from xbots, because the Xbox controller *can* be used across console generations, but for PS, you couldn't use PS2 on PS3 and also couldn't use PS3 on PS4, so why only now complain about PS4 on PS5? Also there's a dev advancement reason outside of making money: if a PS5 game is made for PS5 controllers, if they had to worry about supporting PS4 controllers they would need to program extra elements into the game which is nice but extra work. This is part of the problem with PC gaming where devs have to worry about different configs and settings, but console is supposed to be optimised code on ONE tech config.

Also, Bluetooth 4 and 5 are not immediately backward compatible with Bluetooth 1. In most cases, a BT1 device simply can't connect to a BT4 or 5 chip. The PS4 controller is BT 1.4.

The console war is just like the real politics. Whatever US do, spying espionage assassinate fight war steal other countries oil and resources and etc is OK. Other countries do, no no.

Same thing here, when m$, a U.S. company, signed all the exclusive deals, don't allow cross play, no issue. Now suddenly all these become anti consumerism. The hypocrisy. In fact, the executives in Xbox division like to talk shit man. Think they should go into politics instead.

Didn't know marvel's avengers is live service. Almost wanted to po but it is still worrisome even though it's pve coop live service.

[BuTTBR41N]

Honestly I don't have high hopes for this game.

[overhype]

Some say yay some say nay for the beta Guess I'll have to wait for the full game review.
