Oxenfree was 75% off, couldn't pass that up.

Right????? I saw those prices last night and was ON THAT SH*T!!! LOL! :D

 

When I heard that it was a horror game on Switch and reduced that much I had to check it out, but wow amazed at the voice over work done in it, really good game and atmospheric to the point you could cut it with a knife. Just a few hours in but really seems worth the €5

And aye Talon regarding your purchasing of games, while there are some low % games on the Switch you would have bought, you gotta keep in mind too that some low rated games might still give someone entertainment for a while, but WWE on Switch is just technically a broken game so you wont be able to enjoy full matches without having to hard reset your console at times from what I've seen about the game online.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Cool - thanks for the preview!! I honestly have no idea when I'm actually get to PLAY any of these games (hell, I think I've spent as much time playing Picross as I have playing Zelda!!!), but the description for this particular one sounded really intriguing and the price was totally unbeatable!! 

...I guess, as for as WWE goes - perhaps by the time I actually get a chance to pop this one in, they'll have patched it up properly? Though, without going off on a 10 page tangent, I will FOREVER blame MicroSoft for introducing the concept of "patching" to consoles! Before MS decided to enter the arena with their fucking XBox, there was NO PATCHING of videogames! The game that released, was the game that got released - which meant, developers had to invest in proper QA teams and a publisher couldn't enforce a release deadline (unless a game was just so far beyond repair, they had just given up and were happy to recoup ANYTHING - think Superman 64).

These days? Publishers could give two sh*ts - they're totally fine releasing a steaming pile of cow dung, because they know that they can just keep patching the game, over and over again. :(

Think the first game I can think of that I purchased while it was technically half made was Sonic 3, then you later buy the second half of the game as Sonic and knuckles, but when it comes to traditional patches in modern games it was indeed the Advent of Xbox live which allowed publishers to correct bugs and mistakes after launch, but it's the publishers who then started to take the piss and abuse that tool to degrees it was never meant to be used, the horrible Tony hawk 5 was the ultimate version of this, Activision shipped a disc which was a tutorial while the game was being finished off just in time for launch, meant that the disc was just a download tool for the whole bloody game. All happened because Activision we're about to lose the licence to produce Tony hawk games so they just didn't give a rats about the brand anymore and wanted one last cheque from his name. Deplorable but again, that's a publisher abusing a very useful tool for fixing bugs, just a shame really.

 

Also for this thread! Just bought

The flame in the flood

My list so far:
Doom
Flame in the Flood
Fast RMX
Snake Pass

Probably going to grow a little bit over Black Friday. Eyeing DBZ and Lego City. Skyrim and LA Noire next year or late December. I'm loving Doom on Switch but one overpriced release was enough for me.

Update 1: Xenoverse 2 & Rayman Legends

Edit: Just added Lego City Undercover as well. I've been adding to my eshop balance whenever I get the chance with 20%-30% sales, so I have a nice stockpile at the moment. I figured I'd treat myself to another digital title rather than inconveniencing myself with physical for resale. 

Edit 2: Checked Amazon and saw they finally put the Rocket League code up for sale. Bought. 

Added: Riptide GP Renegade & Volgar

Looking forward to joining the club when I finally get around to getting my Switch sometime next year. I'm being a good boy and first clearing out the pile of Wii U/3DS Third Party Society games a little first.



Acevil on 31 December 2017

Lego City Undercover and Dragon ball Z Xenoverse 2

Oxenfree has been on my radar for a while now. I absolutely loved the trailers and had heard high praise for its atmosphere and dialog systems, so at 75% off I just had to get it!XD

Happy to hear that a few more people picked it up.

With one day left to the sale, I added Rocket League to my collection. Will have to free up space for it at some point......



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?
