What the hell are you talking about? It's essentially GOW with a different skin. What's not to like?

Know what else was like God of War with a different skin? The werehog levels of Sonic Unleashed.

 

[wilflare]

There you go.

Atlus should be proud of all the P4G advocates hereee

 

[Roto13]

Thanks Wario, so no Okami for me I'm still rushing Mass Effect 3.

Okami is kind of strange in that it feels like its own trilogy and it has two pretty good "stopping points" besides the end of the game. So if you want to play the first "arc" of Okami (up to

Spoiler

defeating Orochi

), you could stop there and just pick it up again whenever you have time for it.

 

[bunbun777]

Probably just going to be Disgaea 3 right?

 

[CHusson91]

Probably just going to be Disgaea 3 right?

I'm personally hoping for a good sale since I won't be playing Disgaea 3.

 

[zulux21]

Probably just going to be Disgaea 3 right?

free game wise yeah... but i can't recall the last time we didn't have at least 1 other game on sale for a PS+ update... so I figure we will see at least something on sale.

 

[Tenrius]

Hey guys, can I beat Okami HD in three weeks of ocasional playing? I'm moving overseas and that's my last psn+ month...

I think the game is like 40+ hours, so expect to put in a couple hours per day at least

It took me even longer, 52 hours I think. I played through the entirety of it in a week however, because it was my summer break and I just played Okami, ate and slept. Good times, but I still feel slightly dizzy whever I think about it.

Ah..to be 12 again..

 

[Anteater]

Guess I'll give bioshock 2 a try, the "unlock framerate" option is kind of nice so I don't have to be capped at 30fps all the time with drops, at least it has the feel of 60fps when there's nothing going on


then it drops to mid 20s in battle.

Nice. I'll probably get Stacking.

 

[anddo0]

US wins loses again. I already Disgaea 3, escapeVektor. Very meh!
They better bring it in April.

 

[CHusson91]

Is de Blob 2 worth $3.75?

 

[bunbun777]

I really do not know how good or bad Kane & Lynch 2 is but I have been listening to the soundtrack lately and I like Shen Shen.

Using personal taste and or what you already own is a pretty terrible way to judge which region "wins" a given month.

I have gotten more of personal value this month from the US PS+ than I would have from this month and next month from EU PS+ but that doesn't mean what they are offering isn't worth the price of the service when you remove personal tastes and collections from the equation.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Is de Blob 2 worth $3.75?

Yes, de blob 2 is well worth much more than $3.75.

Sheesh.

 

[Tizoc]

Is de Blob 2 worth $3.75?

I personally liked it. It's a do-able Platinum plus it's a decent and colorful Platformer. If you liked 'breathing in life' to the world of Okami, deBlob 2 has a similar theme.

Wasn't Escape Vector on a Plus discount some weeks ago?
Pretty meh Sales to me, was really hoping for an RE sale TBH =/

 

[ConradCervantes]

Hell yes! I was hoping there'd be another sale on RF:A!

 

[Jawmuncher]

You can do a lot worse for a game at 7 bucks.
I personally like it for what it was a decent TPS. I played through it and can't understand the sentiments of the very low scores.

(Disagea for me though ill never play it)

 

[Tizoc]

@Conrad- Get Guerrilla instead, and get the feel of being a space asshole.

Wait hold up, what? The game has framerate drops? Mind elaborating more on that, I was considering playing it after I get the Minerva's Den DLC if it went on sale on EU PSN.
...but if it has frame drops, I may as well just delete it and save space on my HDD.

 

[Celegus]

Hm, Stacking could be fun. I've really been digging The Cave and the wife loves anything from Double Fine.

Yes, it, like every other game ever made, drops frames when there is a ton of action on screen with 10 grenades going off at the same time along with turrets and the like shooting rockets. I feel bad for you if you really don't play the game because it's not a perfect 60fps

 

[SAB CA]

I dislike these "Square Enix" sales that end up being "Eidos" titles. S.E Evokes the images of RPGs and very Japanese-stuff... which the sale doesn't even have a single game of. Bleh.

At any rate, already have Disgaea 3, but what a bountiful freebie for those who don't have it. As well as Vita-exclusive conent, it also has all the PS3 DLC. That's a crazy fantastic value.

I really don't need anything like EscapeVektor on Vita, but that's a solid price, might pick it up if it fits with other "end off the last 50" purchases.

I haven't gotten much from the freebies this month, but value-wise, I think they offered some great things. There's loads of quality and depth in this stuff, and PS+ gives a fantastic backlock of things I might never play, if left to my own device.

 

[I'm an expert]

Darksiders ain't worth $28 lol..

 

[Violater]

I hope one day PSN sale prices will come close to PC sale prices.

 

[throwawayname]

Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention (PS Vita) is free this week.

Any chance this will be in Europe aswell?

 

[Kelthink]

Darksiders II is £8 on the EU store and it's not even on sale.

yea during heavy actions, I haven't played it for long though, just started it, it's mostly consistent, it's not too bad, if you already have it on ps+ then you could give it a try, it's not like bayonetta or mass effect 3 bad

Europe is getting Virtue's Last Reward and Thomas was alone.

Many would tell you that S-E hasn't been the same since this gen started, they're practically surviving off their non-Japan developed games, for the most part.

If the frame rate doesn't end up being choppy for majority of the game, I'll still play it.

Shit, sorry, that's the game I meant to type. Don't know why I typed that.

from the EU PS Blog

Disgaea 3 is not currently available in quite a few regions so I am trying to find out why to see if we can use it at some point in the IGC

 

[throwawayname]

from the EU PS Blog

Oh yes please.

 

[eddfromtheriver]

Is Costume Quest really short? (heard it's only three levels long), how long does it take to finish?

 

[I'm an expert]

Is Costume Quest really short? (heard it's only three levels long), how long does it take to finish?

If you weren't going for 100% probably 5-6 hours depending on how much you explore/do side shit. 100% can take it up to 8-10.

Good, i like getting everything there is to get in a game, so 8-10 hrs for 3.75 seems excellent, really love the vibe of the game.

 

[derExperte]

According to my Steam stats 6.9hrs for every achievement and the add-on.

 

[itzknickknac]

I wish FFIII was part of that SE sale..

The game is great the first few hours and then you realize it's gonna be the same for the last few. Fizzles a bit but a enjoyable for a casual game.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Holy shit the trailer for Disgaea 3 reminded me of why I sent the ps3 version back to gamefly before an hour was up.

 

[Vashetti]

I wish FFIII was part of that SE sale..

At this point they may as well be called Square Eidos.

 

[SAB CA]

Many would tell you that S-E hasn't been the same since this gen started, they're practically surviving off their non-Japan developed games, for the most part.

Come to think of it, they did the same thing with the "Square Enix Character Pack" in Sleeping Dogs...

"ALRIGHT, S.E CHARACTER PACK! CLOUD OUTFIT AND BUSTER SWORD, SQUALL OUTFIT AND GUNBLADE, LAGUNA + MAN WITH GUN MUSIC, HERE WE GO!"

*Reads description: Hitman, Deus Ex, More Just Cause 2 stuff...*

"............" *Interest 100 % Lost*

At least they could call it a S.E publishers sale, or something... none of the games in the sales were originally Squeenix properties... just very disingenuine.

 

[MMaRsu]

Anyone have a 1 month plus code? Please?

 

[Pachterballs]

nice april update. can't believe its april already.

stacking is a bad game. I might get costume quest

 

[Rand6]

Oh yes please.

People interested should express their opinion about it on PSBlog

 

[DigitalOp]

Finally my wallet gets a break with the new update... Phew I thought Id be broke all month lol

Next you'll tell me that Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts and Perfect Dark Zero don't belong in a first party Microsoft sale.

Eurogamer might still be giving them out

Only for EU accounts that never subscribed to ps+ though.

 

[Kastrioti]

I just bought the PS3 Uncharted bundle with a month free of PSN Plus. The first time I've owned a PS3 (been gaming on 360 all gen.) What do I look for with my one month free of Plus? I'm looking for something free since I already spent enough money on games the last week.

 

[netguy503]

nice april update. can't believe its april already.

huh where do you see an April update? If that was all I was getting for April I would be really sad.

 

[Brad Grenz]

That's not the April update. It's just this week's sale. We already knew Disgaea 3 would be the game release this week. They'll probably give us the full month overview next week, with perhaps some hints on the Blogcast this week.
