Damn it, i just bought it.
Read some very positive impressions though so looking forward to it!

I wouldn't say SoM is repetitive.
The mission types aren't as varied as you'd hope and the side quests are pretty much cookie cutter nonsense, but the nemesis system keeps the game from becoming too repetitive or boring.

Destiny for $70? Best sale ever!
Yah id try the supplied survivor mode and game before getting the pass. Youre a gent supporting a worthy game. Hope you like it: check the OT if you struggle at first, the game essentially plays the opposite of most stealth games so you need to unlearn any common approaches to stealth or youll end up dieing too much and it can hurt the experience.
Hum tried looking around is that the online trophy with daily/weekly challenge ? I usually am a trophy whore for game I love (and I love Rayman so I'll probably aim for it) but it doesn't seem too bad ?
Playing for my couch or my bed remain my main question. VITA is less expensive, I know it had less content but that was fixed with a patch right ?
Yep. It's very enjoyable for a solid 15 hours. Repetitive, but a ton of fun. Especially the initial 5-8 when you're not yet a total god slaughtering Orc Captains like they are basic Orcs.

Nobody cares, at least in Germany, is an american thing.
Considering Oddworld now it's at a reasonable price. Was it any good in the end?
Uh... if you have a PC, why would you be getting a console for anything else anyways?
I only buy consoles to play the stuff I couldn't otherwise get on PC, so I'm curious as to what else you expected to be using that PS4 for besides exclusives/titles not on PC tbh.
From what I gather, Styx is garbage and SW on PS4 has serious screen tearing, so you might wanna proceed with caution on either.

It's been at that price several times already in the US PSN store, even cheaper if you take into account the dollar/euro exchange rate.
The only problem with the pack is that it lacks most if not all major DLC for Mass Effect 3 and some for 2 i think.

Transisitor is fantastic, great visuals and sound design.
£7.99 for Season 2 of the Walking Dead looks a great deal.

gET Styx if you want a good stealth game.
It's been heavily rumoured, but no confirmation or announcement as of yet.

SoM is pretty decent to be honest, and by the time it starts to feel repetitive you probably will be near completing it.
I enjoyed the 15 or so hours I played and as mentioned, the "Nemesis" system is very well done, especially when you gain more abilities/powers and pit orcs against each other.

I've got £50 in my wallet and I'm not sure what to do with it. Mainly on PS4 these days so was thinking Either Diablo or Isolation with Styx. Would love Diablo and Isolation but can't afford both. Not sure which one to go for.

If anyone hasn't played Alien Isolation yet, I'd highly recommend it, one of the best games of this year.
It's not an action FPS, it's very tense and atmospheric and if you are a fan of the Alien universe it is an extra treat to see more back story about Alien.
£24.99 is a great price.

I didn't like it (and I was a huge fan from the HD and Evolution games).
Huge loading times in-between tracks, IAPs, and tracks that were not completely in a 2d plane were a huge disappointment for me.
Transistor, Rayman, Gravity rush.... weird.

Nope. Neither are cross buy.

Too bad. I'll buy them later when they are cheaper then...
Thanks.
No problems. It is a shame they aren't cross buy in the same way CoD and Destiny are.
I'd go with Transistor or Oddworld. Octo is a good game, but the other two are incredible and shouldn't be missed.

Ended up getting Alien Isolation and Diablo on PS4. I think I made the right choice.

I hope you bought D3 from the US Psn store, as its only 28 euro's.
Thanks! I'll buy Oddworld then. It eventually will be cross buy so that's a plus.

Bought Shadow Wariorr and Entwined /PS4/.
Most of those games i own already
But to those who don't - make yourself a pleasure and buy at least Alien Isolation.
Extraordiary game.

Nah, UK store. Had £50 in my wallet from a 'Top up £30 and we'll give you £20' paypal deal I had a while ago. So it really only cost me £40 for the two of them which I was happy enough with.

The plus discount gets applied when you put it in your basket.
I just put Oddworld in my basket and the discount showed up but when I proceed to checkout it says £9.99...
Buyer beware!
Even though ps+ dicounts may be displayed on the store page, not all discounts are applied when placed in your cart. As a matter a fact, ps+ discounts seem to be disappearing. Placed games in my cart, went ahead to fund my wallet, came back and the total sum of my transaction went up 4 euro. Atleast Oddworld, Entwined and Transisitor seem to be stricken by this bug.
Edit: All reapplied except for Entwined.

You are right. Worked for me 10 minutes ago
Now it's the other way around. Transistor has the correct label but the discount doesn't get applied.
EDIT: Now it's applied again.

I'm really torn on Beyond. I want to check it out but am holding off on the rumoured PS4 version. I have some doubts that it's happening but it'll probably get announced right after I buy it on PS3 lol.
Well there already is a trophy list for the PS4 version. Maybe it was cancelled after they loaded up the trophies into Sony servers...
I'm still betting it will be a PS4 PS+ title.
Yeah, bought 20 $ PSN code over the amazon.com PSN webstore (from which i bought GTA V digital for dirt cheap with my german credit card) and bought DIII UE on the USA sale with my US account.
16 for DIII UE is a good price
.Question: I have a save from vanilla DIII, when i rented it way back, can i use/transfer it for the UE edition?
Thanks mate, will hold off then.
