Uh, there's some good games there if you haven't played them. All the Tales Games, Enslaved, Dark Souls DLC, Soul Calibur 2.

The Tales games have been $10 (excluding maybe Graces, which I think was still under $15), Enslaved has been $5 IIRC. They just randomly made the PS3 version of Unlimited World Red cheaper but left the Vita version alone so it's not more expensive...

Maybe there's some flipping still going on. Right now there's nothing particularly enticing, though.

Edit: Yep. Tales of Graces F + Xillia is now $15 for the pair via PS+. ToSC is $10.19. Naruto Shippuden is $5.24 (I know nothing of this one.) So just wait a bit, I guess.

Well you said selection, so I took you to mean the games. Not the prices.

Still no sign of Shadow Warrior on ps4 or x1 yet(digitally). damn

More concerning is no pick up in store option at Best Buy. Looks like Gamestop got it in store even if all the stores are listed as having low stock.

Guess I won't be picking it up.

If Wolfenstein's trade in price had held I would have gotten that instead but looks like it's back to working the backlog for a couple more weeks.

 
That is a really good price for the Dark Souls 1 DLC ($2.50), usually it is $15 unless there was a price drop at some point. It is DLC that they built and released AFTER the original game came out, what a concept. 4-5 hours of content with several new bosses. Some of the story in the DLC ties in to Dark Souls 2. If you ever think you are eventually going to buy Dark Souls 1 I would go ahead and purchase the DLC at that price.

Also this seems relevant

And @pharm, if you're actually being serious, I'm sorry to hear that. I meant to remind you earlier that I'm in Tampa but got distracted by that other bullshit. You need help moving or just anything, dude, I'll do what I can. Hopefully y'all work out, though. Sucks.

breakfuss is trying to be pharm's rebound chick.

They're games that have been on sale multiple times relatively recently. So yes it's a shitty selection. These games being listed isn't as bad as an Atlus sale, but they definitely could have chosen some other titles.

Agreed. All I want is the Xillia 2 costume DLC to go on sale, but nooooo, that stuff apparently doesn't deserve a sale. :twoguns:

 
Thermopyle said:
Oh wow. There is absolutely nothing obvious about that. You'd think it would say DLC in big bold letters. I bet they'll have some impulse buys from angry people based on that.

Yeah, almost got it just to finish up the trophies myself. Then I realized it was only the DLC and I traded in my copy of the game a while ago. Vaguely disappointing but I'm glad I checked.

 
breakfuss said:
Hahaa, you're so disingenuous it's not even funny. Now there's "malice" behind my words? Bitch, please, it's video games. Get a life. We're not all going to like the same things. The same way people here hate Journey or Tearaway or Nintendo. I don't take it personally. You're so quick to point out the occasional remark I make but where are you when people are poking fun at Stoch's weight or any of the other truly distasteful shit? But let me say something about LEGO or trophies and that warrants your ire? Really?

If you think I'm "full of shit", fine. But I can't recall the last time I spoke to or at you. Hell, anyone, really. So it's amazing that you're STILL intent on being this way. I even offered to help you raid yet there you are making snide comments the first chance you get.

I've made a few buddies here and that's enough for me to stick around. You think I'm concerned over a select group of losers with insular and unhealthy lifestyles who got upset I "infringed" on their bubble? You mad bro? If you had a problem you could have PM'd instead of trying to start shit in front of everyone. But I guess we gotta get that like count up, eh? Later, kracker.

Um what the fuck am I supposed to be doing in pixeljunk shooter ultimate's online multiplayer? Dude just camps my spawn and kills me before I can move.

The one person who I know played it complained about the MP portion of the game being what you are describing. He said you could self boost the online trophies with a Vita and the PS4 to avoid dealing with the people playing like that. Granted, that does not help explain how to play it, but just in case you were wanting to get those trophies without dealing with the asshattery I thought I would mention it.

The 4th Great Ninja War continues with a content-packed Full Burst DLC pack for NARUTO SHIPPUDEN Ultimate Ninja STORM 3!

Yep, absolutely nothing.

And it's too bad that Shadows of the Damned was never added to PSN as this would be the perfect sale for it to be apart of. The Evil Within has made me want to revisit that one and I keep hoping that MS will put it on sale for cheap (fat chance). It's already pretty cheap physically, but I'm lazy.

Shadows of the Damned so good and fun. Gamestop has it for $10. I picked up the PS3 version with one of those $5 coupons they had last month.

It's nowhere in the title. People can hit "add to cart" without ever actually going into the game details. If you do add it to your cart, there's no notice that it requires the full game to use. Even in the details, it's a single line 1/2 of the way down the page and nowhere does it say that the game is required (some DLC is stand-alone.)

So yeah...nice try, but you just looked stupid instead.

I would give this a like except I don't know what you mean by stock tracker.
Click to expand...
the best buy stock tracker will tell you what stores have shadow warrior. You can't tell using store pickup as that isn't available. But if u just check stock u can see which stores have it and go get it. Or call them of course.

Yeah only one or two Best Buy's in Utah got shipments in, luckily one was close to me. Go to buy the game on the website, then choose store pick up and you can see which Best Buys near you may have it.

I'd say the person who buys something without checking what it is first is stupid.

Yes, I'm the stupid one for reading about things before I buy them.

No, the person who lists a game in such a way that it'll lead to people buying it without realizing it's not a game is stupid. That'd be Sony, and is what my post on the subject said; that people would do impulse-buys and get pissed when they find out it's just DLC.

Granted until we see people complaining about it we won't know for sure that I'm right about this happening, but based on the quality of the PS Blog posters I'm certain that won't take long.

You're obviously incapable of reading what I posted...which is that it's not obvious that it was a DLC pack. If you missed that in such a short post then you are certainly not in a position to say with authority that nobody will buy the game without seeing the single sentence buried halfway down a page you don't have to click to buy the title.
