Oh, they also have an eReader service that is also free if you have Prime, iirc. It's honestly just a great deal.
20% discount on preorders and new releases? Really? How come FFXV is still $59.99? Case by case?
EDIT: "Your price at checkout is $47.99."
OH!

By reilo Go To Post20% discount on preorders and new releases? Really? How come FFXV is still $59.99? Case by case?Yeah, case by case thing with savings on items. Shipping is nearly universal, though.
e: Guess I'm wrong with all pre-orders. lol I do know that there are random items that are discounted just for having Prime, though.

Fucking shitty service over here.

I didn't know about an eReader service.
edit: holy shit
What's Bloodborne like, I have it available to play but I haven't even unwrapped the package. I'd just rather ask people here than watch random reviews from people whom I don't know their baseline or preferences on shit. And obvs they know nothing of mine.
Okay, I will say something about murder simulation stuff.
If your game has that fucking horrible ending trope of "If you kill me, we are not so different!" speech from the baddie to the main character, then you deserve to have the fact that the hero was blowing away thousands of people five minutes prior be scrutinized.
Uncharted 2's ending was horrible just because of that fucking trope.
Saw that shit in one of the terrible Narnia movies too after Prince Caspian had killed like 50 dudes.
It's like Castlevania in 3D without the platforming.

By Kibner Go To PostI assume everyone that is selling me something is doing so to make a profit and go from there. Are some of these people not able to look at products through that lense?
We talked about this earlier and I was told Nintendo doesn't make moves to make money

Fantasic level design & combat. Ridiculous art direction and the most enemy vairety I've ever seen in a game. It doesn't hold your hand in any regard.
Ciaran is far better at tellign you why it's so awesome and you triggered the bloodborne siren so he'll be in here soon enough :D
I played Bloodborne for a bit for the first time yesterday. Right away I could tell I liked it better than Dark Souls. There's definitely more than a little Castlevania inspiration in there.
Bloodborne is more twitch based than Dark Souls which just has a fuckton of blocking. It's more intense.
Pretty hard though.
Pretty hard though.
By Tea Go To PostDark Souls looked boring as shit to me. Take that however way you will. I'm just being honest.Agreed. Bloodborne is anything but boring. me vs the first boss
Amazon quality really really depends on your region. It fucking sucks for the most part in Scandinavia.
By Kibner Go To PostGet Prime and standard shipping is free. And you get their tv and movie streaming service. And their music streaming service. And an upgraded Twitch account. And earlier access to Black Friday deals. And cheaper prices on some items. And other things, too, I'm sure.Is that available to people in different countries?
The reason I'm impressed is because I'm in new Zealand, 4 days to arrive here from USA is faster than some of the local stores ship their items. And I only did standard shipping
By WWCHGT Go To PostAgreed. Bloodborne is anything but boring. me vs the first bossBeen a while since I played something like that. Haven't had a real boss fight in ages. Should be fun though. I don't mind dying in a game like that and just getting better. I hate dumb deaths.
By FootballFan Go To PostIs that available to people in different countries?I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I'm sure if you look it up on your local site, it will tell you.

I've never seen the Uncharted/GTA comparison before but its hilariously bad.
GTA has been inherently sociopathic since day 1. Nathan Drake is just a great guy.

There's a typical trope in games where killing masses of baddies is totes fine because they're one dimensional evil grunts but if you want to slovenly insert some kind of morality narrative into the game, come on brehs.
i didnt even think about that. no doom..
this game is gonna have to be amazing or im gonna be feeling like most people did about SFV bc of its roster. black panther better be the best character in the game

sf5 isn't even that great imo and people still propped it up hard because of name alone.
By Kibner Go To PostI'm afraid I can't help you with that. I'm sure if you look it up on your local site, it will tell you.Cool, no problem.
I see, don't think there is a local Amazon store.
By FootballFan Go To PostCool, no problem.What country? Brazil?
I see, don't think there is a local Amazon store.
By FootballFan Go To PostCool, no problem.Amazon doesn't have brick and mortar stores, but they do offer sales/delivery via a third-party vendor directly through their website -- sometimes at much cheaper prices. I think that's what Kibner meant.

Word.
Zero is still going to be the best (if he's in). He's broken in every fighting game he's appeared in. lol
By reilo Go To PostAmazon doesn't have brick and mortar stores, but they do offer sales/delivery via a third-party vendor directly through their website – sometimes at much cheaper prices. I think that's what Kibner meant.Sorta. I meant for him to go to the Amazon webpage and check their Prime offer. It should serve him the version meant for his locale and thus see what Prime offers him in his territory.

I wasn't comparing uncharted to GTA. I was making a point that I didn't like games like GTA at all and wondered if Uncharted was a dumb male power fantasy like that too where you are forced to murder and pillage without any real consequences.
From the responses here I'll give uncharted a try, if I can borrow it or at a discount. Just didn't think Tomb Raider was really that violent from what people told me, was told it was a very pretty game with good puzzles and survival gameplay. Will say how I feel when I get farther in.
The only PS4 games I own at the moment Tales of Berseria, Platinum Stars, Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition, Bloodborne, and Rise of the Tomb Raider. Everything else is on PS3.
Maybe next things to get is Nioh, Valkyria, and Nier.
Still figuring out what to get. Remote Play pretty much makes me feel better about getting this. Tho the sizes of games right now is fucking big, with patches... that shit sucks. Like really 40-50gb for a game what the hell? Plus another 10-20 on top of not more? Optimize your shit.

Good YT channel to watch a FFXV playthrough? No annoying YTers pls
By data Go To PostSo close to prestiging in Titanfall 2Welcome to the club, I'm on my 3rd Regen.
By Rob Go To Postglove skins in CSGO
what a time to be alive
Wow. Valve is really scraping the bottom of the barrel
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostWow. Valve is really scraping the bottom of the barreli dont even understand why. its not like knives and gun skins weren't bringing in hundreds of millions for them
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostWow. Valve is really scraping the bottom of the barrelAnyhing they can do to put off updating Team Fortress 2

Like really 40-50gb for a game what the hell? Plus another 10-20 on top of not more? Optimize your shit.Get ready for games to get even bigger as we move into the 4k Era. Higher resolution means higher res textures needed means larger asset size and thus bigger game files.
By FootballFan Go To PostNew ZealandYep. Doesn't look like Prime is available there.
Not sure why I assumed Brazil either, sorry :/

Bloodborne may not be up your alley either.
Maybe next things to get is Nioh, Valkyria, and Nier.
I love Vakyria to death but that new game looks like it's drowning in generic anime game bullshit. I don't understand...it's like with Phantasy Star Online, Sega nailed the art right off the bat but decided to fuck with it.
By Rob Go To Postcan't wait for inhumans and ant man /fake excitement
I don't get why they decided the Inhumans would be the replacement for the X-Men. Like, "hey, these corny-ass characters haven't caught on for 50 years and the leader can't ever talk. One guy's power is that he can break the floor. The main babe's power is that her hair moves. This is our new outsider-character flagship franchise, gentlemen. A toast!"
By DY_nasty Go To PostValk is dead. Its best to just accept it.
Maybe it'll be good. YOU DON'T KNOW! *runs and hides, sobbing*
