They have some good deals. I was contemplating Attack on Titan for $18.99. Have you ordered from them in the past and if so can you comment what kind of condotion were the items received in?

Asking because other people have expressed concerns regarding quality/condition of items received. Thanks.

GF games often seem brand-new, especially with all current gen stuff being on bluray discs, which are harder to scratch. Of course, people find ways to damage them anyway, but it's uncommon. I've ordered probably at least 10 games from them over the last 2-3 years, and only one of them was damaged. Generally, I think you can buy with confidence.

I’ve ordered a fair amount of stuff from GameFly and have always been impressed with the value. Original packaging, discs were perfect, even usually included the dlc codes that come with new retail releases.

Almost every order I've ever placed with Gamefly had chipped discs so i'm hesitant to order from them anymore... great pricing but I've received some pretty crappy discs many times. And they wont let you exchange them either. Just return for refund :/

My experience as well.  Had a couple of rentals in the past year that was too damaged to even install.  Stopped buying from them when I got too many chipped discs.  It's really hit and miss.  The great thing is that they come with unused game codes.  That's the only plus to buying from GF, imo.

Any help with book of unwritten tales and pain killer? Either worth adding to the backlog?

Book of Unwritten Tales is really fun. I haven't beaten it yet, but if you're into point & click games plus fantasy spoof (references to Harry Potter, LotR, fairly tales, etc.), this is a fun game for $2.

Has anyone tried to go for the "Mein Leiber" cheevo for wolfenstein 2? How brutal is it?


Two people on TA have unlocked it so far. According to the guys who unlocked it, it took about 50 hours of practice to get a perfect run down. Sounds like a good time.

Interesting. The chipped disc I had was from last year, I wonder if there's been a change in the way they process or package discs which is damaging them? Because I bought a lot of PS3 games from them over the years which were always like-new.

Prey worth having digital or should I pick up on disc somewhere?


It is a game that encourages replays. Both by achievements like finish game without doing X or only doing X, and by having lots of ways to accomplish goals.

If you would like have a game like fallout 3/4/new Vegas digitally then I would say this falls into that camp. Granted, not as good as fallout but it is in my replay back log

Jumped the gun. It was only Ep.1. False alarm. Figured I'd let you know quickly in case it was a mistake. Just Ep. 1. Nothing to see here. :)

PowerPyx rated the game a 9.5/10 and that as one of the very hardest achievements (slash trophies) around.

I've received a chip disc from Gamefly before also.

Wanted to mention since it came up with Destiny 2 that there is a bundle that I missed with both the game and the expansion pass. That’s $67.49. I had thought the Delixe Edition at $74.99 was the only thing that included both.

Anyway, I contacted MS chat because I was planning to eventually get the expansion pass. But thought it was no cheaper with the Deluxe Edition that it would have been for me to buy it separately later. They refunded my base game purchase and I’m going to get the bundle.

Just thought I’d mention it since earlier I had posted saying it wouldn’t make a difference if I got it later. Anyway. Saved me another $7.50.

South Park.
29 Wal-Mart thurs
Or pay the $5 no hassle fee and get it at BB tonight for 35.
Or pay an additional $5 digital fee and get it from XBL for 40 with credit I already have.

Opinions? Discuss...

 

It's a ubisoft game. Wait a couple months and get the gold version for $30.  Either when Target drops the price like a rock or when it drops digitally.

Perfect timing kcobra22; I was this close to buying This War of Mine last night and then hesitated since it was only 50% off.  Can easily justify the $1 month, and a second month, of Game Pass now.

Mother... I'm still hovering around level 20. I think these will all pass by the time i'm leveled enough to take them on. Surely they'll come back around though.

New system update?

 

Edit: Eh, I've always had good quality from the discs and cases if ordering from Gamefly.

It's definitely not just an issue from the past year.  Personally, I ordered a Wii game in 2007 and had this problem.  This disc was chipped all around the edges.  The game seemed to work, but I didn't even like putting it in my console for fear of it causing some sort of damage.

 

Then, I ordered two 360 games in late 2013 and they both had the exact same problem as the Wii disc did six years earlier.  This time, I returned both games and vowed to never purchase from GameFly again.

They must. Ubisoft club has their weird achievements for beating 1 and all 4. Osiris didn't even show up for me until I hit like level 25. I just hit 32 last night, wonder if I should try this one and see how it goes but even at level 30 I get 2 hit by enemies in the level 40 regions.

 

 

Picked up Injustice 2 last night after multiple suggestions. Still contemplating on a few other games

I'm considering grabbing some 360 games in the black friday deals.  Here is a list of things I am considering:

 

1. Spec Ops the Line

2. Asura's Warth

3. Darkstalkers Resurection

4. Street Fighter 3 Third Strike

5. Darkness II

6. Lost Planet Games (2, 3, colonies)

7. Crackdown 1 and 2

8. Castlevania Games (harmony, lords of shadow, symphony)

9. Beautiful Katamari

 

 

Thoughts on any of these?  Thanks in advice for any advice.

Spec Ops is absolutely a slept on last gen niche classic. It plays like a 2nd rate Gears Of War cover shooter but thats not a bad thing. The story and the characters are the stars of the show. It must be played. Go get it.

 

 

Darkness II is a lot of fun, the powers make you feel like a bad ass and its definitely worth a play. 

 

Played a bit of Crackdown 1 a few years back, just couldn't get into it. It looks and plays like an early last gen game through and through. Personally I'd say skip it, it hasn't aged well gameplay wise. I'm sure it was the shit when it first came out though.

 

Lost Planet 2 is one of the worst games I've ever played. I tried to run it in co-op with my cousin when it came out and we shut that shit off after a couple hours. Didn't like it at all.

 

Haven't played any of the others.

Street fighter 3 is interesting because there are fighters that you will never see again.

 

I hate lost planet. Robots. Too hard

 

I like Crackdown 1. Part 2 isn't fun. I am thinking they'll be included with crackdown 3.

 

Castlevania games are always good. Symphony is a must have. You might want to skip Harmony if you don't plan on buying all the DLC. Probably an extra $25 for everything. Also keep in mind that there is a 30 minute timer for each level.
