Ugh Limited Run Games, get ready to pay out the nose,

addictedtochaos1239d ago

Base game is $35, special edition is $55 and collectors edition is $140.

CrimsonWing691239d ago

How much is it digitally?

The Limited Run Editions are always over priced but in My experience with the company so are the base game versions.

$35 for a game with all dlc and actual game manual. If anyone think all digital is the future than keep buy as many physical releases simply because we saw in this games case the license could expire and get could get dilisted. We had a similar situation with other licensed games. Physical should be preserved for as long as possible because having more options is better

CrimsonWing691238d ago (Edited 1238d ago )

Oh I’m not disputing that.

My issue is their prices. It’s never MSRP with them and I don’t care how fancy the instruction manual and case is.

Neonridr1239d ago (Edited 1239d ago )

it's the shipping for me that's the problem being in Canada. The quality speaks for itself. That K/O edition is gorgeous and has so many awesome inclusions. But shipping + duty ends up being a lot. I want a physical copy of this game, so I might just get the base game.

Amplitude1238d ago (Edited 1238d ago )

yeah the shipping is nuts... I was originally trying to go for a full switch and psvr set and made it about 36 switch games before i had to stop. That awful-looking power rangers game was about to cost me something like 80 dollars since i believe it was 60USD, and they raised the shipping prices to canada by 5 bucks that same week so i just said screw this lmao

Its too bad they dont ship through amazon or have a "spend $100+ and shipping is free!" type thing. I'd probably still be going. Now i just grab stuff i really want. Ill grab Scott Pilgrim for sure!

Unknown_Gamer57941238d ago

Agreed. I own four Limited Run releases so far, but I need to really like the game to want them as it's bloody expensive between the shipping, taxes and exchange rate. Also, it takes forever for our purchases to ship. But, I'd also be lying if I said they don't make great collector's editions. They're definitely worth it in the end.

Sony shares big new PS Plus stat, but not the one we want to see

PlayStation Plus has improved the split of PS4 and PS5 players on its priciest tiers, but Sony continues to hide total subscriber numbers.

lol acting like it’s equivalent to ms numbers

Mr Logic1d 3h ago

Uh...They're definitely not equivalent.

"Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service now has 34 million subscribers."

"the total number of PS Plus subscribers across all tiers was 47.4 million"

darthv721d 3h ago (Edited 1d 3h ago )

That PSN number seems like it should be much higher... especially when you consider that PS4 alone has a sell through of over 117m. To not even be at least half that is rather interesting.

To the XB side, having 34m to an install base of roughly 50m (XBO sell through) or even 85m (360 sell through) is a greater percentage of unit to member ratio than PSN.

That's not the "gotcha" you think it is Darth.

darthv7222h ago

^^it's not supposed to be bloop.... it's just an interesting observation.

Have you ever heard of a PC before? I hear they are pretty popular.

MS started lumping gold subscribers in with those GP numbers... keep in mind.

What. Definitely more os plus subscribers but that makes sense due to actual console sales

Darth the difference between the bases are huge your right but you gotta think. Ps players buy more games, where as the Xbox base relies on gamepass for their gaming. So it makes perfect sense

darthv721d 2h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

What makes perfect sense though? You say PS players buy more games... so then logically there should be more PS+ subscribers given the increased number of online multiplayer games in the PS4 generation alone. The PS4 was the first time that + was required for online play much like Gold was for 360 users.

Keep in mind we are talking subscribers, not simply XB/PS users. I assume you meant to say offline single player games, which is most likely true as well. That gen also saw a significant increase in games with an online component comparted to the previous gen.

victorMaje1d 1h ago

I for one will be going back to essential at the next renewal. When I feel a game is good & right up my alley, I’ll check trusted reviews & just buy it.

jznrpg1d ago (Edited 1d ago )

I have the top tier until 2028 as they gave me a massive discount for all the years I had left but I’ll most likely go to essential as well. I buy my games but my kids do use the service occasionally. They do prefer to own their games as well since any game can leave the rental service at some point and they don’t like that idea. They mostly use it to demo games then ask me to buy games if they really like it.

RedDevils19h ago

For me, I will cancel it all together but unfortunately I still have it till 2030 lol

meganick23h ago

I would like to see Sony add a fourth tier of PS Plus for people who just want to be able to play games online without any of the perks like monthly games, store discounts, or anything like that, and it should cost $20 annually, $30 maximum. There’s no way I’m paying $80 just to play games online. Even the original $60 fee was too much, and I would often wait for sales to re-up my subscription.

P_Bomb19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

Essential is too expensive, I agree. We’ve got one Essential and one Premium sub. Dropping the Premium when it expires.

gamerz16h ago

Just let my subscription lapse for the first time since 2010. Will sub again every now and then for a month or so to access my old ps+ games but for me it's the end of an era.

DivineHand12516h ago

Let those numbers continue to drop because it is now too expensive. $80 per year just to play online. I noticed they didn't offer any discounts on the subscription or controllers during this year's days of play for the first time in many years and they will feel it when people choose not to renew.

My subscription will lapse next month and it will stay that way until further notice.

KevtheDuff12h ago

There were savings on subs and controllers here in the UK? I bought a controller yesterday in the sale..
It would be weird if those deals were not in other territories too?

Hope SH2 gets more polish before release.

P_Bomb1d 21h ago

I’m not paying $94 CAD for what they’ve shown me. Looks rough as sin.

Fishy Fingers1d 21h ago

Ive seen better lip syncing during a Punch and Judy show

Sonic18811d 21h ago (Edited 1d 21h ago )

This looks terrible. Capcom should have done the remake 😂 The animations and gameplay looks stiff.

-Foxtrot1d 21h ago (Edited 1d 21h ago )

Okay. I was saying before in another article how SH2 looked better than the last trailer, which is true but damn this looks rough as hell.

I wanted RE4 / Dead Space remake quality

Sonic18811d 21h ago (Edited 1d 21h ago )

I wouldn't buy it for $70 dollars. Maybe when it's on sale.

-Foxtrot1d 21h ago

Yeah full price, deluxe editions, Konami are f***** tripping here.

CrimsonWing691d 21h ago

The characters look terrible to me… like it’s distracting.

repsahj1d 16h ago

I will give this game a chance!!! let's go!

Cheat providers for competitive games should be illegal.

Rynxie1d 20h ago (Edited 1d 20h ago )

This is what developers and manufacturers should do. I know going after cheat devices/makers is a cat and mouse game, and cost money. However, they can get that money back by sueing these manufacturers of cheat devices. Take a page from Nintendo's playbook.
