How Shadow of the Colossus got rated as highly as it did with those controls is incredible, worst controls, camera angles Iv'e seen in a modern game to date.

Lads, I admire your bravery, can a couple of ye come around to my place and hold my hand while I play this.

To be fair holding hands is scarier than any games at the moment

Just started it, was expecting terrible controls and they were shocking bad.

I didn't really no anything about the game but I heard positive things and was aware it got great reviews, I considered buying it at one time but just never bothered.

Yeah I mean I can't actually remember the last time I abandoned a game due to poor controls, visually it's a stunning game but for me with those controls it was unplayable.

Even riding the horse is a headache, you literally have to button mash triangle to get it going, found it a nightmare to slow down /stop, add on top the angles and it makes for a terrible experience, shocking stuff so surprised it rated as highly as it did.

i'm guessing it's not a coincidence that the number 1 selling item on Instant-gaming is a 14 day sub for PS Plus

I expect some companies will do very well out of the current situation.

Disney Plus couldn't have asked for better conditions to launch their new streaming service.

I can see people having to cut back on subs if they have been laid off permanently or temporarily.
Anyone that's subscribing to multiple subs like Netflix, Amazon Prime & Disney might get rid of them all and keep only one.

Netflix is by and far the most expensive of those subs. Prime is €6, D+ is €60/70 a year and Netflix is €11 a month if you don't want potato quality.

Monster hunter being added midway through the month for Asian subscribers, hopefully it'll do the same for this region

Would love to try that.

I'd give you my copy if I could. Found it very dull and grindy, and that's only the first few Monsters.

Get Netflix through a Turkish VPN. Only about 6 euro a month for the top package then.

Uncharted 4 and Dirt Rally 2 are supposedly next months free games.

****ing awesome if true. Uncharted was an epic adventure, don't think I'd post through it again but i enjoyed it. I loved dirt rally 1, didn't fancy dirt 4 so never tried DR2, would be more than happy to play that.

Maybe I'm just being grumpy but surely everyone and their granny has played Uncharted 4. It is a great game though.

Dirt Rally 2 is excellent. Career mode is harder than the first one though.

Dirt Rally lulls you into a fall sense of brilliance. The first car was handy and you aren’t fast but you can control it. So in my wisdom, I jumped into a class B car as soon as I could. Like handling a slippery eel. Dirt 2 would be great but is that too recent for PSplus and I thought it still sells ?

If true it's going to be one of those annoying months. Two really good games. But two I already own...

The short lived Group B era. The acceleration and speed of those cars is insane.

I played the Nathan Drake Collection but hadn't got around to getting 4 so I'd be thrilled.

Does Dirt Rally 2 have a VR mode or was I imagining things?

It doesn't.

I've never understood the love for the Uncharted series.

I'd give Dirt Rally a go though. I've rarely played rally games.

TinCanMan · 25-03-2020 12:05PM

A pretty good month in my opinion. Although another month where I have at least one of the games. I am curious to try dirt rally 2.0.

Well, each month the leak tends to come from a Playstation Store from a different country so it's usually legit. This month, it was shown on a video from Playstation Access which is official as well. The video has since been taken down but it looks 99% certain unless Sony change their minds.

Weird thought, Dirt Rally 2 is currently on sale from 70 to 45 or something like that. I know they have given games before on recent sales but not sure about current sales.

Well, we'll know around 4:30 anyway!
