Sniper scores again. I have r&c from psn+ but for $10 i think I'll grab a physical copy. Maybe jump on Ninja 3, will have to look into what version best buy has (limited with exclusive content, etc.)

 

[Tsel]

All 4 One would be tempting if PS+ didn't give it away for free. I'd rather have the disc version, but free is free. Ninja Gaiden 3 has me interested, but $20 is a bit too much. $10 would have made the decision easier to be honest.

i'm a ps+ member but i'm contemplating getting it just so i don't have to download it. 15 gb at my speeds is too much.

 

[fitzcain]

ratchet i got it free as well, been hoping a sale at target again might pop up as it comes with the extra "quest for booty".........but 10$ might be worth picking up the game, i started playing it, its pretty fun, but nothing earth shattering........but yeah 14gigs is a lot as some of thes games are taking longer and longer to download, i dont want to keep that resident on the drive if not necessary, got dcuniverse and thats like 15, stuff adds up, y'know

This game is actually pretty good. Thanks to a fellow CAG, I got to pick this baby up when the Sony Store in Woodland Hills was closing for about 16 dollars and some change . If it goes anywhere near the 30-40 dollar mark, I would have gladly picked it up if I didn't already buy it. The only bother would have to be the camera following you; it sits at this weird angle. Other than that, this game has been a blast to play.

For whoever is interested, they were already in production for a second Kingdoms of Amular but the studio closure changed that . In short, don't pass this baby up if you liked Fable 1 or 2. ( Not Fable 3, that was a bastard child)

 

[Royal High Knight]

For twenty I will jump on the disapointing ninja gaiden 3. I will also pick up borderlands GOTY so bring on tuesday. Plus spidey movie

[Velo214]

so can you buy a game and then pricematch it with these dotd's a few days later when it's live?

 

[Royal High Knight]

the reason ng 3 was rated so low cause its a pretty big jump off from ng2. You only get the sword throughout the game as compared to ng 2 where you got 6-9 weapons. The diffculty is made easier, which isnt bad, but the series is knwn to be not for the feint of heart. Multiplayer sucks imo. I love ng2, but after reading so many reviews for ng 3 im not expecting much. If it wasnt for me being such a HUGE fan of the series I would pass on this.

BBs website states that they do not price match Deals of the Day. I don't know if there's a difference between their video game dotd and the main dotd.

[ddog510]

Tried the NG3 demo and I can see why the reviews are negative. If they were selling a used copy for $5, I wouldn't even pop it in my xbox before flipping it...(I mean honestly who wouldn't flip it BBY sold it for $5? lol)

I'm a huge fan as well. I just hate the direction they went with the thief installment. I'm definitely passing on that one. It'll definitely be cheaper down the line. Prototype 2 Judging by that article, Prototype will most likely be a DOTD sometime in the future. The studio is closing because Prototype 2 didn't sell that well. It sucks when a studio has to close, but business is business.

All 4 One is a ton of fun. My girl and I play it all of the time. I for one would rather have the disc version instead of the download taking up space on my hard drive.

 

[Abeja]

I too am in the same boat of getting a disc version of All 4 One. Downloaded it on PS+ and its alot of fun as a coop I can play with my brothers and sister. Its a solid game that for 10 bucks I think u can get ur value back on it later anyways.

I am gonnna stay away from NG3 tho. Ill wait for $10 maybe. I didnt even get into NG2 as much. Id rather just pop in Bayonetta or grab NG Sigma.

 

[technicalstylez]

just played the demo i could use both the sword or the claw. that makes 2 weapons and tbh thats all i need.

All 4 One wasn't really on my to do list, but for $10 I'll give it a shot. Local co-op looks like it could be fun.

All 3 of the weapons are in the demo, but the claws and the scythe are dlc in the full game. And I'm pretty sure last time I checked, they were $10 each.

 

[Kaiser499]

Eh I may pick up NG3 at $20.

 

[the_ENEMY_]

used for $5 where?

 

[Vap]

[quote name='tham1988']All 3 of the weapons are in the demo, but the claws and the scythe are dlc in the full game. And I'm pretty sure last time I checked, they were $10 each.[/QUOTE]

There is a download option on the main menu of the game,which is where I downloaded the weapons from,and they were free. I'm not sure if they make them free once you use the online pass or if they're now free for everyone,but either way I got them for free back in late April.

As for the game itself,I liked how they thought of making it a easier game for people,but they went a little overboard. You can use almost the exact same attack in most of the game and beat it. You will die a few times of you play it that way,but it can still be done. Then trying the harder modes were just straight up cheap bullshit. The main bright spot for me was the story. They did steamit goodjob on that part.

 

[Velo214]

Prototype 2 was fun to run around in. The game didn't leave any memories for me after platting it other than enjoying jumping/running/traversing the landscape.

i was just thinking of doing instore pickup on ngs3 for that $10 bonus for instore pickup cuz its over 50, then go back and pricematchthe price of 19.99. but i dont want to risk having a 59.99 copy of this game. thanx tho.

[quote name='Velo214']so can you buy a game and then pricematch it with these dotd's a few days later when it's live?[/QUOTE]

I've done it before. I had purchased Darkness II from a closing BB for about $20.XX then when it dropped to $11.99 on that DotD, I went in and got it adjusted no problem.

 

[Gameboy415]

All 4 One is the only Ratchet & Clank game I don't have and for $10 I'm sold!

You could always buy it again at $19.99 and return it with the $59.99 receipt.

Returning it will most likely cancel the $10 bonus. Price matching has a chance to not cancel the bonus but Im really not sure

Ninja Gaiden 3 for $20 isn't bad, but I'm not sure if I should let my curiousity and a good deal get the best of me again. I did just play NeverDead... I'm sure its not that bad...

i got neverdead for 40 at target with that trade 2 for $20 deal. bad idea.
i think it went 17.99 used at gamestop the day after i did that, lol.

Its bad and this is coming from a huge NG fan (I foolishly bought the CE) wait till it hits $10. Same thing over and over. I would say only 2 of the boss battles are even of NG quality/difficulty.

 

[mrclutch]

So I guess there's nothing until ratchet and clank on 7/3?

 

[thegame85]

Damn I bought Ratchet from Target awhile back for $20! At least it came with Quest for Booty

 

[ChunLiBarbie]

Hmm.. Ratchet for $10. Might get this to travel with. Best Buy and their undeniable prices!

Too bad those saves from the free PS+ PSN 'digital' version probably won't transfer. As, it'd free up 14 gigs on my HD! ...No. I'm not going to delete it and re-download it later. Atleast, not right now.

 

[kobeisgod]

Love the NG series so I may jump on NG3 despite the reviews. I have almost $200 in trade in credit from the 100% bonus so I'm willing to waste a little. I guess the trade-in price will drop once the sale starts but as of right now if you get it 7/6 and beat it by 7/7 you can get $26 back

This topic would have three post if people didn't "judge". It's obvious people use this forum for reassurance. So why is it ok to praise someone for a questionable decision but it's not ok to judge the same person? Don't let a few honest people deter you from buying a game you obviously don't want. Just keep bashing the negative and accept the positive so you don't risk the chance of not buying the game.

Why wouldn't the disc version use the same save file as the digital version? I've never tried it, but the save files do not seem different whether you are using a disc or digital and can be copied, etc. I'd be interested in getting a definitive answer if anyone knows.
