I definitely prefer these earlier updates. Why not make it a point to do this every week?

BitbyDeath4034d ago

Cause then you won't appreciate it and want even earlier updates :-p

TrendyGamers4034d ago

I wasn't expecting Ion Assault to be so cheap. I might have to check it out.

dbjj120884034d ago

Injustice Demo! I gotta see which platform I wanna get it on.

Sarobi4034d ago

I'm gonna jump on this Walking Dead sale

Wigriff4034d ago

I think I might finally have to get Rainbow Moon, since the bundle is so inexpensive now.

Why Soulsborne Games Are So Popular Despite Being So Difficult

Soulsborne games are infamously difficult. But why has that difficulty been the secret sauce to success for many of these titles in the genre?

GamesAsAService72d ago

Rewarded effort feels good.

Starting out bad at something and getting better with practice makes accomplishments meaningful.

Getting through these games feels like a journey of self improvement, lol.

You only have yourself to blame if things go poorly, but in a similar way overcoming challenge is similarly a function of your own growth.

franwex72d ago

I think because the games are fair. Gamers can tell that it’s due to their own abilities and not some BS.

jjb198172d ago

I've always loved the sense of adventure and wonder in these games. There's no hand holding, there are surprises and traps everywhere and you have to figure out what some items do. Beating a heide knight was like an accomplishment for me the first time and it felt good to earn that sword he dropped. I've spent hundreds of hours in souls games ever since Kings Field on PS1. The lore is incredible and it makes you think about the history of the world you're in. I can't wait for Shadow of the Erdtree.

SyntheticForm72d ago

It's the recipe of fair difficulty, presentation, boss battles and lore that attract me to these games. The From Souls games have always had a nebulous quality to them that I find fascinating. Demystifying them is a big part of the fun.

OhReginald71d ago

I think its the atmosphere and gameplay. Each of these games unique ways to play and unique settings/atmospheres that are in a league of its own.

Grandia, Klonoa, and Parappa... NICE!

MrBaskerville155d ago (Edited 155d ago )

Grandia is especially nice, as I don't think it's available on psn atm. Wonder if it's a psx port or the Switch version.

If they didn't despise ps2, they could have added Grandia 2-3 as well.

shinoff2183154d ago

It's not a despise. Far as I've read their working on better emulation. It'll come.

LG_Fox_Brazil155d ago

GRANDIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Fckn love that game

StormSnooper154d ago

Is it good? I never played that.

crazyCoconuts155d ago

Been thinking of getting Teardown on Steam for Steam Deck play. Heard a lot of great reviews for it.

MrBeatdown154d ago

Played the first half hour last night. All I did was wreck a building but what a blast.

Elda155d ago

Nothing of interest for me. My sub is up in 2 weeks & I'll go with Essentials only for cloud saves & online. Having Extra or Premium is a waste for me seeing most games that land on the service are old that I've played already or old games I never had any interest in playing.

crazyCoconuts155d ago

Respect your opinion, just pointing out that Teardown is a Day One Extra release for PS, not an old game in this case. Gotham Knights last month was a year old.

Elda155d ago

I have no interest in Teardown. I bought & played Gotham Knights when it was first released in October 2022. Every month I'm always buying the latest AAA or AA games when they first release to play on my PS5, the very reason why Extra & Premium is a waste of money for me.
