:ps4: Foul Play - $2.00 to $100.00 [customspoiler='Fine Print'] :ps4: Foul Play is a part of the PlayStation Heroes program, which means that you can pay your choice among a variety of price points for an item that is usually a theme for entries into a contest to win some prize with most of the money going to a charity. There are no details at the moment for what the prize for buying Foul Play offers, so I'll post that whenever it's announced.

Edit: From the PlayStation Heroes app on PS4, the Foul Play promotion is for a trip to PlayStation Experience in December. Once you purchase the game, you're supposed to go here to register for the actual contest, though you should wait until the page is updated for the PlayStation Experience promotion instead of whatever it's on at the moment.[/customspoiler]

All the different missions can be played through in a couple of hours total and take place in the same small area. Even if you're only willing to play each mission once I'd say it's worth the $6. The game is certainly an instance of quality over quantity. I found myself having an absolute blast with the game and wanting to replay the missions numerous times, trying to better my end ranking each time. When The Phantom Pain comes out it'll carry over some of your progress from Ground Zeroes.

All that being said, I'm still betting that they'll eventually give the game away on PS+ closer to Ground Zeroes' launch to help build some additional hype.

As short as the main campaign is (about 1.5 hrs your first time, can be beaten skipping cutscenes in around 30 min) I think it was one of the best games this year. Looks fantastic too, and if you're into replaying stuff for better scores, there are lots of scenarios to do. I got it on disc because I'm a fan of the series and still felt like I got my money's worth. Definitely moreso than mgs4.
 
I've been debating to get black flag since the sale started. Is it worth it at $20? I've been an assassins creed but and have played all the console ones except this one and unity. How does this one fare against assassins creed 2?

Only if you have nothing else to play and are planning on playing it right away. It's a fantastic game. But it has been out for over a year now, and prices will drop in the coming months.

What i do not get why people allow it. I know for a fact if people allow evil stuff they do it more often in the future and other companies follow the trend. It is common sense but a lot of people just follow others that should not be followed. We the people allowed this to happen and the good few standing up for consumer rights get attacked for wanting a better future. I laugh now when networks are down most people deserve it for allowing it for so long. I do not blame sony they are there to make money not make friends. If they can make profits on crappy network why change it unless enough people leave. Enjoy the down times and enjoy future drm online games cause ubisoft says it is the future.

It is partly why i do not play games that feature a multiplayer , online experience as the main draw. I had a blast playing diablo this weekend on my ps4. Also enjoyed playing mario kart 8 and super smash bros with family.

The issue here is that the 'good few standing up for consumer rights' have no fucking clue what a DDOS attack is. The people explaining it to you aren't 'attacking you for wanting a better future', we're explaining why what you're saying is gobbledegook due to your fundemental misunderstanding of how internet protocols work.

Preventing DDOS attacks would require changing how the internet works at a very low level, far beyond the capabilities of any single entity. And even if we, as a world, did that, there's no saying the new protocols wouldn't be abused in some other way. And we'd also likely lose everything good about the internet (it's openess and freedom, anonynimity, etc) during any major shift like that.

DDOS attacks are because of groups like LizardSquad using all your friends computers who never installed virus/malware protection. You know your cousin's computer that constantly gets random pop-ups? Blame them.

Bite on TWD2 & Peggle 2. Had to order from SEN since the PSN store was down on my PS4.

Also I was trying to play FC4 *digital* & Child of Light yesterday while PSN was down. I don't understand why the **** they didn't boot up. I don't think they require online to play..... Ended up playing Shadow of Mordor instead.
 
I really hope we get an update that  online only stuff becomes offline to like doing  stuff with trophies

The same thing happens to me with a few games. I signed out of psn and the games booted up just fine.

So the deals end tomorrow what are the chances that Sony would be fully back to normal tomorrow

The distinction between the people who think Ground Zeroes is worth playing and those that hated it seems to stem from whether or not you intend to play through it as a linear story experience or if you are willing to replay the map in different ways.

It doesn't stand by itself very well, but it is pretty fun. I think calling it a demo is a fair criticism, but I also think the people who flew through it in an hour and then put it away are crazy.

I think it's worth $6, but I also think Yars is right and it will eventually end up in another promotion. I'm hedging my own bets on pre-order incentive for The Phantom Pain.

 
Grabbed myself :ps4: Legend of Korra, probably going to regret that but oh well(not because of the game but the $9 price tag). Picked up :ps4: Tales from the Borderlands season pass also. First time I'll have every episode of telltale game on release. Now please give us :ps4: Game of Thrones season pass for $20 or under. Its a little under $20 on XBL right now but I want it on ps4

 
So having sat out without a Sony console for two years until now, will a new sale start tomorrow with the current one ending today?

Thanks. I prefer to have a physical copy of most games, but I will buy game downloads if they are cheaper and it's a game I really want to play. That said, I bought a physical copy of Ducktales for PS3 on the cheap last night even though I already own the download since I thought it would be nice to have a manual for the game. And, I've never been particularly good at Metal Gear games, but the review says that this one doesn't necessarily have to be played with stealth and that you can go in with guns blazing if you want. I've never been particularly good with not being spotted and hiding the bodies, so I thought this one would be different. Still on the fence since that $6 will also get me a PS1 Import Classics download of Arcade Hits: Shienryu, which I sadly believe I would get more play time out of. I know - I'm incredibly indecisive.

I think they're skipping tomorrow's PlayStation Store update. The last blog post called the week 4 update the last one of 2014.

So I'd guess there'll be a big ol' bupkis tomorrow, and then new additions/sale prices on the subsequent Tuesday.

 
Didn't try the store at all this weekend, finally got in this morning and grabbed Ground Zeroes.  That's really all I want from the sale.  Really I would rather have it on disc for the collection... but I can always grab it later if I really want one when it's $5 or less.

Yeah, overall the sale turned out to be weak... but we've had some great sales through the year and a lot of solid games (for me anyway) on PS+... I can't really complain too much.  If anything I saved a bunch of money towards the next big sale.

I don't think that there will be a sale tomorrow since this was the last week of sales for the holidays. There might be a weekend Flash Sale on Friday, though.

Quick question, does that game have decent gameplay for single-player, or is it really better only for co-op?
Click to expand...
The puzzles change depending on how many people are playing, so it's fine if you play alone, just more fun co-op.

I haven't actually started it yet, but that's how Guardian of Light was anyway.

Hmmm, a lot of the Metal Gear games are like that, the only real difference is that the controls don't suck anymore. Generally you want to try and not be spotted, but when you do instead of starting over you start blowing things up. It still isn't really a typical action shooter.

There is one new mechanic that would help you out. When you are about to be spotted the game will now sometimes enter a slow motion sequence that gives you time to draw your gun and shoot them before they cry out an alarm.

If the controls are what held you back before it's worth trying, but if it's just the general gameplay then I don't think you will like it any better. Especially when the replayability in these games comes from perfecting your sneakiness. It might be still be fun guns blazing, but that's like half the game, so I would deduct half the theoretical personal value. :D

Thanks for the info! Did you get the season pass bundle, or just the base game? Seems like $6 extra for the future dlc packs would be reasonable?

I went without it. I'm not sure if I'll still be playing the game then. Seems worth it if you're interested in the future dlc though.

 
[SIZE=14.3999996185303px]Flash Sale extended to 12/31/2014.  I know that it has been mentioned else where, but I thought people here should know about the change as well.[/SIZE]

The basics:

Store finalizing updating around 2pm PST/ 5pm EST on Tuesdays. However, things start updating earlier than that so always pick sale stuff up by Monday night.

There is almost always something on sale every week, but 'named' sales (like this Winter sale) are less often. So expect a handful (or two, sometimes) of games on sale every week. And many games have release week sales, at least for ps+ members. You know when the store is done updating when they post a 'store update' entry to the blog. NOTE - the 'normal' sales are never announced till the store updates. 'Named' sales often get publicized a day or two before.

I hadn't heard there wasn't an update tomorrow due to the holidays (as someone above mentioned was a possibility). Skipping a week is extremely rare, normally we get releases + sales.

 
Just saw the thing about a voucher for new ps4 owners to snag a free game. Can that voucher be given to/used by older users to redeem as well? Basically are they tradeable

The four game one? Those were being sold on eBay for like $25 last week so I would imagine so.

 
So this is something I don't understand.  Fieldrunners 2 is out on Google Play and Amazon Appstore for $2.99, but also has in-app purchases.  That's fine, but then they release it on Vita for $9.99, still with in-app purchases?  Why?  It seems really lame to charge $9.99 and also include in-app purchases, for a port of a mobile game that sells for a third of the price in the mobile stores.

Difference in standards for the platforms where the audience supports games at higher prices. It's also $9.99 on Steam.
