Gosh I not played this for a while, suppose I may dive into it again, we'll see ....

Dare I say it EA access has the full game £3.99 for rhe month ain't bad?

toxic-inferno1357d ago

I haven't played it since the month of its release. And while I actually really enjoyed what I played, once the story was complete (which didn't take very long...), I felt no desire to continue playing.

I have to say, the footnote here about melee weaponry has me intrigued. I actually found the powers and combat a lot more intuitive and interesting than the guns.

Smclaren19851358d ago

Why not just scrap it and move on to the remaster of mass effect trilogy . I will try this game again but I’m not holding my breath as it’s only a small part of the team apparently but still .

gamer78041358d ago

I’d just cut their losses and put the extra manpower behind dragon age or mass effect

pinkcrocodile751357d ago

It's easier to say that when it's not your money.

gamer78041357d ago

It absolutely is easier for me, but better to experiment and fail cutting losses quickly than to extend those losses even farther. But I understand they want to keep fans goodwill

XxSPIDEYxX1358d ago

Not the biggest fan of Bioware anymore, but you gotta respect them for not giving up on their games despite how rough the start is.

DarkZane1358d ago

The overhaul might end up making it good. Look at what FF14 turned out in the end. Although the difference is that SE are somewhat competent while Bioware doesn't seem to have a shred of talent.

anast1358d ago

I´m surprised to see this one is still kicking. Hopefully the fans of this game eventually get what they paid for.

ironmonkey1357d ago

The game has actually gotten better

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE121d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine121d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies121d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--121d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob121d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven464d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad464d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt465d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil463d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx464d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades464d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602464d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

The PlayStation Summer sale expands with a load of new discounts.

Aloymetal989d ago (Edited 989d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb989d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle989d ago (Edited 989d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff2183989d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal989d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds988d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon989d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley989d ago (Edited 989d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat2020989d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot41989d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai989d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX988d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley987d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot41989d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast989d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu989d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing989d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast988d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing988d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC989d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
