Could be tempted by the Shadow of Mordor DLC.

Couple of those EA games discounted so heavily, seems they're destined for the vault in the near future.

Result! I've spent a month hovering over Shadow of Mordor after it didn't show up for Christmas. I will probably never get to the DLC and I'd have bought the standard edition if it was there, but sure what harm like.

I'm kind stuck in a circular argument on EA games. I don't need EA Access now, coz the backlog I have is huge. On the other hand, there isn't much point in getting some of these because I might get EA Access and none of them are that important to me. (I own FIFA and I don't have another EA game).

Now, to Ryse or not to Ryse. The eternal question of our times.

Even at 50% off i'd find it a bit difficult to recommend.

I mean, it's a fun enough few hours but quite repetitive for something so short. Some decent violence but very QTE heavy.

I paid 30 for a used copy a while back now and certainly didn't feel short changed.

I spotted Dying Light for $29 and the Enhanced Edition for $59 last night on the Singapore Store.

They both show up more expensive at $80 and $85 on the main page but are cheaper when you click into them.

I always use DGP on the laptop. Had the app but uninstalled it after a few days because it didn't have all the features of the site. That was an early version through so might have improved since.

Looks like I might need to set another Xbox region
