Rokzar said:Your sarcasm detector appears to be faulty.

Anyone know if any of my wishlist items are on sale? Bit hard to work out from all my notifications

But this is not a bad sale at all.

Quick summary of the ones I’ve played that I can recommend based on price and quality:

Foreclosed $4.99 - indie game you’re a a dude on the wrong side of the law in a dystopian future. Easy completion, chapter select to mop up things you missed. Adjustable aim assist effectively creates a Very Easy setting if desired. Attempts a comic book framing for much of the interlude dialogue and for some movement portions. I can’t say Foreclosed is good so much as it’s an interesting attempt at something novel that isn’t a complete success or failure, but most of all doesn’t wear out its welcome by being pretty short.

Assassins Creed Odyssey Gold Edition $24.99 - By now you’ve heard many opinions about Odyssey, here’s mine: it’s the best in the series. It fully embraces the Isu weirdness of it all. When Shadow of Mordor stole the best bits of AC and Arkham Asylum they created a stunningly fun gameplay experience, which Odyssey steals right back. Story-wise you wield the broken Spear or Leonidas, an Isu artifact on par with the Apple of Eden, given you effective super powers. The unconventional playstyle options are endless, my favorite is an archer build, which is basically ranged assassin. Season pass included, the storyline of Atlantis being considered the best. Beyond all that this bundle includes AC III Remastered, which itself includes AC Liberatoon Remastered. Screw Ubisoft+, just buy this. It’s all the AC you could want.

Black The Fall $4.49 - it might be unfair to characterize this as an Inside clone, but it gets the point across easier than a long explanation. The puzzles have good solutions if you’re stuck and the achievements are a bit easier, given the generous chapter select you can do a blind playthrough without wasting much time. It’s not as good or quite as polished as Inside but it is good and has a far more satisfying ending.

ELEA $1.29 - ELEA is not good, it was a labor of love though. It’s clunky and weird and mostly a game achievement hunters buy. I can recommend it for that only because it has a few other redeeming qualities, the weird visuals eventually won me over. The story is optional, mostly in the form of messages you find. I have mixed feelings recommending a game like ELEA, the ambitions of the developer probably tip the scale for me.

Wasteland 3 $7.99 - Fallout games were initially a spiritual successor to Wasteland, this is the actual successor (well the second one). Quirky world and top down turn based combat, what’s not to like? Anyway, plenty has been said about Wasteland 3, this is a good price, and encourage you to play it.

Outriders Worldslayer Upgrade $29.99 - this includes a new campaign comparable in size to the original as well as a new endgame, tons of new, more powerful loot, and some new leveling mechanics that’ll amp your Altered power level up to 11. If you only player Outriders at launch it’s a much better game now thanks to a big title update (so everyone gets it) and Worldslayer builds on that foundation. With all that said it’s fundamentally the same gameplay loop, if you hated it before, you’ll hate it now, no matter how much smoother it’s become. Inventory management remains a problem, though you can lock individual items which make clearing out your inventory between runs easier.

I watched all of the Naruto anime but I never played any of the games, mostly because I don't normally do fighting games, but man $4 is kind of tempting to dip my toe in and test the waters not gonna lie...

No 360 titles?

I found 6 games for under a tenner, can't go wrong with that, especially when your using Microsoft rewards points to pay for them 😂

Got my seventh notification about Cloudpunk going for under a fiver. Think I might pick it up 😉

got a whole lot of notifications lol wouldnt have noticed the sale otherwise

WanderingPlotor said:I see FEAR 2 and Injustice on console here (UK), but that's it... not sure why they wouldn't have been picked up with the rest, but the one-off sales seem to behave weirdly for us, which also may explain why folks are getting multiple notifications.

Mr Science Cat said:Currently up to 7 separate notifications myself.

R3f1CuL said:ive been in the process of watching all of naruto... for almost the last 3 years, so my friend (who recommended it to me) said i should just play the games to get the story quicker

but im with you, i dont like fighting games so i cant take the easy way out

An Alphy said:I HIGHLY suggest looking up an episode guide list for ones to skip tbh lol Those flashbacks are a meme for a reason. They get tiresome pretty fast. Like so tiresome that it inevitably lowered my opinion on the whole anime because of how much it just drags it down. Still good, but it gets points deducted for how overwhelming they became lol

I for one think we should really be getting more notifications about this sale.
I've only gotten 7 so far, so obviously I almost missed it

S IK i LL e lX said:I think with the whole backlash about that baby gamers article a couple of weeks ago and with Rich being vocal on Twitter that he’d wish easy games would just go away, I don’t think we’re ever going to see an easy games article ever again. Sad that Rich is putting his personal feelings above his members and what they’ve grown to accept for years.

R3f1CuL said:oh yeah trust me i know about that, and my friends also suggested i just skip the filler

but like here on TA, im a "completionist" when it comes to anime so i force myself to suffer thru the filler

im about 300 episodes into shippuden, so i still got a while to go

Guys im not sure, is there a sale on? I wish TA notified us if wishlist things went on sales.. (please note this is absolutely sarcastic and meant jokingly!!!) ❤️❤️❤️
