No? Give it another month and it'll be down to $20. Plus the game is supposedly pretty poor.

It's not. It was very solid when I played it.

Digital is 40 bucks right now. I barely trust physical media as it is, let alone if it has been handled by dozens of unknown people.

$25 is a steal if you can find it at a redbox. Game is great. I'm not even halfway done and I have 40 hour in lol

Buy it if you're interested. So many bad opinions/takes in this thread.

It was worth the 60$. And it's only the 2nd game I paid 60$ for this year

Wait, you can buy games at Redbox? I thought you could only rent them.

Unless by "buying" you mean put a different disc inside when you return it so you get to keep the game >_>

Naw, they're selling everything cause they're stepping away from games. Plus they always sell them off when they're not popping anymore

Yeah, that was one the bad takes. Rental services always give you a crazy price when getting rid of stock.

I've bought games from my local rental place, held onto it for 2 months and got GameStop credits equal to what I paid months ago. And they have to low ball you to make money.

Did it with ESO. Just Cause 4 I picked up and took to GameStop the same month. Free rentals basically

If you played it and enjoyed it then yes, $25 is real cheap. I am on chapter 6 and at like 58 hours and I still love my time with it. People saying it sucks are just being hyperbolic. It's also one of two games I got for $60 this year that I thought was 100% worth it.

My mistake. I didn't realize this was a special Redbox deal. Thought it was the price everywhere.

Was the other game Sekiro?

Btw, the trade in value is 20$ for regular members. So cop it, try it out and if you don't like it, go get something else at only a 5$ loss.

Yes, actually. I used a gift card for Metro: Exodus so I'm not sure I could count that as a full new $60 purchase.

Holy shit man. My other game was Sekiro and I got Metro Exodus early because I traded games to my cousin >_>. Bro mates.

Hehe, good taste is always good to see. I need to get back to Exodus, it's real good. Stopped in the desert map for reasons I cannot remember. Don't think I was digging it as much as the first map but I eventually warmed up to it and then...just stopped.

It actually took a while to grow on me. I didn't like that first lil bit as much cause there were less inside areas and the human enemies could spot you so easily in the open. But once it clicked I had no problem playing through to the end. Ended up making my Top 5

I have an issue with the lighting I think. It feels like when it's nighttime it's too bright, yet I am easily crouch walking around everything in clear sight but not actually able to be seen. It's weird.

Did you play the first two? I beat Last Light a little bit before Exodus so I was riding that high. I enjoy the mix of linear / open that Exodus does. Shit, I was going to play more Death Stranding when I get home but maybe I'll be going hard at Exodus again...

I played Last Light when it was new. Never made it pass the halfway mark in 2033 remaster tho. I ended Death Stranding at like 85 hours lol. I tried to take on as much as I could on all trips.

Yeah I'm at chapter 6 where I am JUST about to get my LOU back. Almost 60 hours and I have zero intention of stopping. I take a few days off then it creeps back into my mind and I go back into it hard. I just love it so much. There is some bullshit though, like I think I just damaged a ton of cargo from some random gravity warp while falling down a rock.

Keep on keepin' on, GP!

Yeah, $25 is definitely a steal for Death Stranding. Glad to see you got it.

(Plus, you're gonna need something to switch to when KH3 ends up disappointing you.)

For sure.

I finally beat it on Sunday after 83ish hours, and I had a blast the entire time.

In fairness, I literally only got kh3 because it was $12. My expectations are reasonable lol
