    Finally time to pick up Code Vein, anyone who's not played Technomancer I recommend grabbing it for that price. Its a poor man's KOTOR

    SOMA at £2.39 is criminally cheap... great timing for Halloween too.
    Yeah I felt the same, played it for about 30 minutes and slipped in'Tacoma.

    Just bought Bioshock collection which is a steal for the whole lot at 10 euro :) Finished Rise of the tomb raider which was superb so for anyone that hasn't played it can highly recommend it. Nothing else really jumps out at me but bought something for the last few weeks so now I just need my series X!!!

    not much for me today, either already have or of no interest.

    but i highly recommend Get Even a brilliant wee hidden gem. well worth the price.
    another is (i've nearly finished it)
    Ghostbusters remaster thoroughly enjoyed it on 360 and if you love the old movies give it a go. a good movie tie in.

    and the Metro games are all good fun to play, well worth checking them out.

    take care all, stay saferock

    Never heard of SOMA, but I'd buy pretty much anything at 90% off with a 4+ star rating.

    Thought about Don't Starve Together, but thinking I'll pass for now. Nothing else here.

    I have Rise of the Tomb Raider, should I just buy the season pass or is the 20 year celebration worth it ($5 vs $7)?
    If I remember correctly, the 20 year anniversary has two special modes not available otherwise. In one you explore Croft manor and has some insights on Lara's family, I can't remember what the other one is about, I want to say that zombies, but I don't know if its part of the season pass or the anniversary.

    I would go for the 20 year edition, its good content for two dollars more, and you need it if you want to get all of the achievements.

    My two cents/pesos/rubles/dinar: You can't find a better way to spend under ten bucks than the Bioshock Collection - and it's remastered O_O

    It's a great game. Gameplay isn't groundbreaking, it's a kind of walking simulator with stealth sequences (made by the people who did Amnesia, if that tells you anything, which is also on sale btw), but the atmosphere and story is amazing. Also all achievements are story related (one is missable in theory but hard to miss in practice). Everyone should buy SOMA at 90% off.

    For fans of Castlevania Harmony of Despair, for some reason the dlc Extra character - Yoko Belnades is free at the moment.

    Oof. Wallet felt this. But... it's been awhile so fair.

    Haunted Halloween '86, Newt One, Silent Hill: HD Collection, The Adventures of Elena Temple: Definitive Edition, DayD: Through Time, Spacejacked, Aliens vs Predator, Lichdom: Battlemage, The Technomancer, and The Crew. Still a few more contemplating on payday, but... if this is the Halloween sale kinda afraid what sorta damage I'm looking at come Black Friday. And just know the second I pull the trigger on The Walking Dead: The Final Season it'll be live on game pass the following week with my luck.

    A number of cheap easy completions but nothing that I actually want to play. So my wallet is safe for another week.

    Wow Soma is only $2.99! Anyone who hasn't played it yet definitely think about checking it out.
    Yes, definitely time to picking this up.

    It has one of the best stories in a video game imo. Gameplay isn't anything great, but the story is absolutely amazing!
    Oh! Expectations raised!

    Glad to hear that! After you finish it let me know if you agree. I think the story will meet very high expectations. Just don't play on safe mode, it would totally ruin the experience. Not sure why they even added that in the game. it's not hard at all just playing on the normal difficulty.

    I recommend CODE VEIN - standard or deluxe edition - for those who haven't picked it up yet.

    That's been free for a while. I discovered it about a month ago and grabbed it.
