Next you'll be telling us you like a couple of Coldplay songs.

That isn’t funny

It is really good but one you can definitely wait for. The story isn't going to change but the price will.

I'll be playing it on the 60FPS mode anyway over the 4K 30FPS option.

Edit: I don't see this one dropping in price for a few months.

It won’t, since maybe Ghost of Tsushima, Sony games seem to be holding their value. Maybe they are taking a page out of Nintendo’s book.

Demon Souls still seems to be around the 60 quid mark

Every game comes down eventually. TLOU II is already down to €20 and it's only a year old.

Thise games always hold their price quite well for the first 12-18 months.

This topic is exactly why buying a digital version PS5 is a dumb idea. Save €100 now just to lose hundreds or thousands during the consoles lifetime.

I bought Valhalla for €35. I'll probably sell it for €30 no bother. Many here would have paid full price for it at launch just to uninstall it when completed.

Not dumb at all , i don't buy that many games but the ones I do I play allot.

Multi platform games always drop in price, exclusives not so much

Hi all,

Picked up a PS5 DE for my lad.
He played Minecraft on the PS4 (disc) but we're having trouble getting it sorted on PS5 DE.
The game is there in the library but the game is locked.
Tried a licence reset but no joy.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

He would have to buy the digital version off the store.

The disk is basically the product key for the game. Not being able to use the disk means you won't be able to access the game on the PS5. Like the person above said, you'll have to get the digital version of the game off the store. Just make sure you can transfer your save between the disk version and the digital version of the game. Sometimes there are issues.

It needs the disk in the drive to play the disk version. The DE is missing that, so any disk PS4 games won't work.

You would need to buy the digital version of Minecraft. Or upgrade to the disk PS5.

you can save a fortune with digital as well and not have the hassle of going into shops.

game share with someone like minded and every game is always half price, sales are even better bargains.

its horses for courses but the thoughts of going shopping for bargain then selling back to cex so they can gouge people gives me shivers

Reserving on Argos.ie and going to pick it up is hardly an ordeal.
You don't have to deal with CeX at all if you just sell it to someone on Adverts for usually a better price

What happens if Argos is 30 minutes away? Or you don't/can't drive and there's no buses available?

Or you couldn't be arsed with all the offers of a PS1 copy of Crash Bandicoot and a half eaten egg mayo sandwich for your copy of Ratchet & Clank!!

It’s a deal if you remove the egg from the half-eaten sandwich!

Then you just buy digital. But if the digital version is 100 euro and it's a tenner in Argos, then you're out of luck with the digital edition.

Gamestop are doing a 50% off R&C if you trade in a select game. Guess it's time to finally trade in my 5 hours played Valhalla! Only reason I'll get it tbh, not a hope I'm spending €80 on a base game. Will also make it interesting to see how much BF6 will be considering it won't have a single player aspect.

Used to be bigger list pre lockdown, but possibly partly due to transition of old gen to new gen the smaller list as less value in ps4 games etc now

Thanks lads, do you happen to know if the 50% is pre-order only or can I head in next week and get the offer?
