Here an assortment of five games you're going to want to check out this week.
Ahead of Dragon's Dogma 2's global release, the first iteration in the series by Capcom has been discounted by 84% on Steam.
Teardown out today, November 15, all other titles available from November 21.
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.
It's not a despise. Far as I've read their working on better emulation. It'll come.
Been thinking of getting Teardown on Steam for Steam Deck play. Heard a lot of great reviews for it.
Played the first half hour last night. All I did was wreck a building but what a blast.
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.
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.
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.
Baldur’s Gate is a name synonymous with party-based fantasy RPG games. There’s still a stretch of time until the third instalment finally leaves early access. While you’re waiting for the gates to open and welcome you to Forgotten Realms, you might be looking for similar games to ease the wait.
In my personal opinion, Divinity Original Sin 2 is better than any of the Baldur's Gate games.
Are you including BG3 in that comparison? Or just the first 2? The first 2 are tough to get into now, and I never liked the ad&d rules. The 5e rules are much easier to grasp. But BG3 seems to be just DOS2 but times 10. Haven't played it in early access at all, just going by what I see online.
hilarious because the game that is most like BG3 and a game every DND fan should try is Solasta and its not even on this list
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen...,
do you mean that game (was going to say sequal) that still only runs in letterbox?
---
I'll be picking up Dead Island Riptide though.
Don't Starve is a lot of fun and it gets challenging and I got Poker Night 2 already so I can play that on Friday.
Mixed reviews are keeping me from buying riptide
I wished it would of gotten better scores
I would get Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen... But, people who already bought Dragon's Dogma originally still have to shell out the full amount for this..
They can't purchase it has a separate DLC.. There is apparently incentives if you upload your save file from the original Dragon's Dogma... But, my save has long been deleted...
Either way... This is essentially Dragon's Dogma with extra content... that could easily have been made available through digital purchase... However, it seems Capcom is making everyone pay $49.99 all over again. Even customers that have already paid full price and experienced the game.
So I won't be getting it anytime soon. Plus I have too many games to play as it is.
