So, I think now is probably a good time to start saving for a PS5 Pro. Nothing crazy in terms of saving, but like, putting $20 aside from every paycheck from now on. Just so when the time arrives I won't have to go digging deep into the piggy bank 🐷💸 #PlayStation#videogames
@eduardochavez I never though about it like that. I usually wait for new graphics cards with no savings and then cry about how pricey they are. :kekw2:
Lacrimosa of Dana is the perfect jumping in point for the Ys series.
It's certainly up there as one of, if not the best Ys game, going by the people who's opinions I hold in high regard.
I didn't quite finish it on Switch (huge surprise, me not finishing an RPG...), but got really far into it and fell in love with it.
One of my favourite.
I wan't to restart it on PS5 when I finally get one and complete it this time.
As I was working on that latest GamesMasters issue, I came across the article for Just Cause 2 and remembered just how much I enjoyed the chaos that game brought, so I decided to hunt down the complete edition of Just Cause 3.
@OutofPrintArchive Crackdown 1 and I think 2 were great. However, I think they were cheeky in boosting the sales of the second game (I think) because it included a demo of one of the many Halo games.)
Super happy with this one as well.
It looks to be near impossible to get new at this point and goes for quite a bit of money second hand at times, so finding a brand new copy for €44 just made my week. :ablobcatheart:
If you have not played this one and enjoy games such as Danganronpa, be sure to give it a go. It's super cheap right now on PSN.
Still on my Ys Memories of Celceta trip so when I was shopping for harder to find, but cheap Visual Novels and RPGs, I had to add this one to the list.
€33 brand new, so I'll call that a steal. 🥰
@OutofPrintArchive I loved my time with the PSP version! I wish you a lot fun with your copy:btr_nijika_heart:
For me it was the perfect game for short bursts because of its level selection structure and just the relaxing island town vibes.
@Kyu_b thank you! 😊
This is actually one of the Trails games that I know nothing about.
I was originally gonna pick up Zero first as I’ve heard great things from the Crossbell series, but that one was nearly double the price of Nayuta, so I knew I had to grab this one asap as it’s quite rare to see it discounted.
Akai Katana Shin and Sengoku Basara Legend of Yukimura Sanada on PlayStation 4.
Got a great deal on Akai Katana as I only paid €22.
I had Sengoku Basara in my basket for €60, but I held off since I already spent way too much these past months.
But suddenly it dropped to only €30, so I couldn't resist at that price.
Sadly, I've heard it's nowhere near as good as Sengoku Basara 4, but still.
Many sleepless nights and finally, we went through all the stages of creating the functionality of a PlayStation 5 game and all the rounds of bureaucracy. Erra: Exordium release on the May 1. It was the longest journey and experience that can be sold for money 🤣
@maxim congratulations! I wanted it for PS so hard, I will buy it again 😁 how was the experience of adapting the game? Did you need to change any controls or UI for consoles?
@glukozavr many additions and changes, related specifically to the platform API, saving, gamepad, vibration, loading the game from activity and a bunch of other requirements... when you don't know what to do and why it doesn't work, you spend a lot of time looking for a solution that depends on the game engine and ps modules
Updated my Gaming Library page, you can click the title on the spine of a game and it'll open a dialog with more info about it. Recently integrated the PSN API to show trophies and even an icon if relevant. APIs are cool. (manually mapping API IDs to your Notion list, not so cool, but it is necessary!)
PS: Don't try to change the completed status — rude. Also I didn't copy the idea from somebody I look up to with their NYC checklist, nope. 🙃
@robb It exists, but isn't officially advertised by Sony, however smart people have figured it out and made it super easy to use. I used this one: https://psn-api.achievements.app
This one popped up for €32 so it was time for me to double dip (bit of an understatement as I must have these games like 8 times now since they originally released on 360 in Japan 😅 )
But anyway, glad to have both of these gems in this form as well.
I think I grabbed this one just in time when I ordered it early last week, just in case prices for it start to spike due to the popularity of the series, which seems to be getting a massive amount of attention.
@Dr_Ubertrout I actually didn't know that there was a non-essentials label version of this Ultimate Edition.
All I've seen up till now was the one with the red band.
So I'm thinking this might be even harder to find in good shape.
Started playing Nex Machina by Housemarque again this weekend.
Since I have the zombie shift again and I have to be up at 3:45AM for work each day, I can't really play anything for the next 3 days, but I can't wait to dive back into this one this weekend.
It's really tough and I haven't been able to beat the final boss despite numerous tries, but I love it.
Having Eugene Jarvis as a creative consultant will do that. :blob_cat_dance:
