If you enjoy open world games, and it sounds like you do it you finished Origins, then definitely pick up The Witcher.

I've around 230 hours put into it between the main game and expansions. I'd advise picking up the version with both DLC, their games in themselves.

FYI, the general consensus on how to play through the game and DLC are:

Play the Witcher 3 until you feel you're coming to the end of the story
then play Heart of Stone
then finish Witcher 3
then start Blood and Wine.

Man, heart of stone might be short in comparison to Blood and Wine, but the main villain is one that's stuck with me longer than almost any other game.

I've been buzzing for a sniper type game for a while so I purchased Sniper Elite 4 in the sale, really liking it but man, thsi is the first game I have played in the last 20 years where I have died so much on the first mission

Still a great game though

Would also advise not to get too caught up chasing down every '?' on the map. I did this at first and found myself getting burned out. For a finish I just did them as I came across them doing main quest stuff.

Anyone played Everspace much? I really l like the look of it but is it pointless without getting the DLC too?

Already picked up Hellblade yesterday so this is the only other thing tempting me.

Far Cry 2 is excellent value for €3.29/€4.29 too. Can be played on the 360 and One.

Found this buried last night. Didnt play it much. Have only ever played Far Cry Primal. Will give it a proper try over the weekend.

It also goes without saying - but titanfall 2 at 6 euros should be a mandatory purchase for anyone with even the slightest interest in first person shooters / mechs.

Is this all multiplayer or is there a campaign

maximoose · 20-07-2018 11:10am

There's a campaign, and it's one of the best in years

I know you did the rightful thing and bought Witcher 3. AC Origins was, let's say, very influenced by it.

No sign of it going into EA Access?

It's in the vault alright. Single player campaign is short but great fun. Well worth playing through

sioda · 21-07-2018 12:02am

Cool I have ea access must give it a go

Great game, although I think SE2 and 3 are much harder from what I remember! Or else I was so used to how to work the maps by 4 that I had it sussed.

I think I have 2 or 3 on the 360, thats why I decided to get 4 cause I enjoyed them

21-07-2018 10:42am

4 was the only one I played , lots of saving and reloading but once I got to the point of doing it on authentic difficulty with no manual saves you knew how far you could push it and how enemies would behave in certain situations.

Really enjoyable challenge. Though that said I didn't have the will to do it again when they released the Authentic plus mode.

I highly recommend buying Sniper Elite 3 and 4 and playing them in co-op. The whole campaign can be played with a second player. Synchronizing headshots is such a good feeling.

Max Mafioso · 21-07-2018 4:23pm

I game share and have messaged my friend to download it so we could play together, would be helpful on some of those missions where 2 soldiers are next to each other

Gotta say though, I loved the fascist propaganda on the second mission, my dad was over and heard it as he was walking by and asked what the hell was I listening to, ah I love Italian history lol

gazzamc · 21-07-2018 5:27pm

Anyone having issues redeeming Splinter cell? it's telling me i need to buy even though i have Live.

23-07-2018 8:35am

I can't see any discount on Lego Incredibles, even though it's listed as having 20/30% discount. Is this the same for everyone else? One of my kids has been driving me mad over that game.

sioda · 23-07-2018 8:40am

It goes through as a sale but at no cost. Think all the BC gwg have been that way

Yeah I get a very brief error screen (the one with the person in a white coat with their arms in the air) and it goes back to 'see price'. This isn't the first month I've seen this either.

Apparently I had changed my region a while back to Canada. When changing it back to Ireland it worked for me. I did need an active payment method. It seemed like I was buying it but wasn't charged anything.

Hope that helps someone.

I had to do it on my pc, I had that problem on the console also.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is well worth playing.

ShadowHearth · 02-08-2018 5:14pm

I picked up after all Dishonered, but only first game. Did not wanted to buy all of them and ending up not playing them if did not like it.
Well, so far first game is freaking cool. I love it. Its a bit of shame that if you decide to go no kill/low chaos play style, then you are very limited in arsenal. On the other hand its very satisfying to get in to building, clean it up and go out without anyone even knowing you were there.
