Cheap Games

[Mighty P]

Pretty old, but dont think that old! haha best bet would be to go in and have a squizz for yourself. I saw Unchartered 2 for $7.83 or something. Not sure how old the game is though.

Will check it out.

I picked up Dragon Age Origins for $5 at JB the other day and glad now I didn't pay more, I liked the sound of it but whoever decided that a squad based RPG should be locked into an over the shoulder 3rd person view (on PS3) is an idiot.

Bit ironic calling them idiots, maybe you should've done your research.

Dragon Age: Origins on the PC is one of the best games ever.

 

[Quokka]

For a fiver I'm happy to stick with trial by error

Heard good things about it on the PC and you can see it's a good game, hell its still a good game on the ps3 but a bad conversion hurts it.

Just popped into Target. Bit of everything. The 3DS games that were on sale are mostly gone, but I managed to pick up Star Fox.

Hope it's good. Starfox on DS was a fun little game, and I mean little in a literal sense--it was short as hell. Literally finished it in around 3-4 hours!

Didn't mind Origins. Really enjoyed it, actually. DA2 was awful though.

I need a new solid RPG to sink my teeth into. I've been meaning to go back and finish Skyrim, but lack the interest. Might just import Luigi's Mansion 2 and be done with it.

 

[Kickpuncher]

It has been out for 7 years though.

PS2 says hi.

 

[HBK619]

It has been out for 7 years though.

Which means there's 7 years of awesome titles to play.

Sony did say that they were aiming for the PS3 to be a 10 year console.

How long it lasts after it hits 10 is another matter.

It'll probably get loads of Japanese support for ages, as well as receive Fifa for god knows how long. I think Fifa is still being released on ps2 lol.

Really? First person I've heard say that. I think it's a brilliant game and the four person system had me hooked to the point where I hated it when I was split up from them (what was up with that stupid arse "fade" section?)

DA Origins was very good, although it's pretty true the console versions suffered (especially Xbox) performance-wise/UI issues.

If you want a good RPG to sink HEAPS of hours into I highly recommend Dragon's Dogma; it's absolutely excellent. Best RPG I've played in the last few years (and that includes Skyrim).

If you're a glutton for punishment then Demon's Souls or Dark Souls are both phenomenal RPGs.

Maybe also Kingdoms of Amalur, although I didn't finish it there is a huge amount of people that rate it very highly, and although I got a bit bored of it it was still good for the 50 hours or so I sunk into it.

If you have a decent PC then the Witcher 2 is one of the best RPGs you could ever hope to play, and it's even on Xbox if you can't be arsed on PC.

Which all reminds me I still need to finish Skyrim ffs... have 158 hours clocked on it and still am halfway through the main quest line.

 

[The Big Sauce]

Not sure why anybody would buy a PS3 now let alone a 500gb one.

Last gen consoles will see a spike when GTAV launches in a few months.

There will be some people who jump on to play that game late in the cycle.

My sister was at Dick Smiths and got a few bargains on the ps3 this afternoon

Battlefeild 3 $20, Medal of honor 3 $20, Wwe 12 $15, Doom 3 $20, Elder scrolls skyrim $20, need for speed the run $15, Uncharted 3 drake deception $10 and a few other games for under $20

sales guy told her these prices are australian wide

 

[Glenno23]

Good prices there, especially Uncharted 3 for $10

I wonder if they're clearing out their stock and getting out of the market altogether? Seems to be the trend amongst the non specialists atm

 

[The Speaker]

I think so.

They're clearing out every game left in stock.

 

[The Big Sauce]

Or they are clearing heaps of current gen stuff in the lead up to next gen. They did crazy sales last year as well.

 

[Mister Carlton]

I'll pick up UC3 tomorrow.

 

[Mighty P]

I was looking for Fallout New Vegas for below $30 everywhere recently and got it from EB. JB had it for $44. JB frustrate me a bit because they always have the same lot of 30 or 40 games on special. All depends what you're looking for.

Dude, I been looking for it too, was surprised to see jB had it at that price. I found it on MightyApe for $12... they haven't let me down price-wise yet.

 

[KeilorUnder9s]

Just got a Slim PS3 on eBay with 4 games and a headset for $134. It's absolutely in brand new condition too. Now for cheap exclusives

 

[Kickpuncher]

Alan Wake + American Nightmare now on Humble Bundle.

 

[Jimmy 35]

Company of Heroes Anthology for 20 bucks, includes main game plus two expansions. Good practise before CoH 2 comes out. But i recommend buying it over Steam as it was an absolute pain to get the collection working cohesively by disc

 

[Lavender Gooms]

My mate moved out not long ago and took his ps3 along with him. Any recommendations on where I can pick one up cheaply?
