Eh, went to try and pick up GotG, but every version is just "Waiting List", and I'm sure this sale will be done before that list is.

Looks like since they're about to lose the rights to those games due to selling it all to Embracer, they're doing a last sale for peanuts to get a couple of extra bucks. Either an opportunist move or a petty one (after realizing selling all those devs/IPs for $300 million was a dumbass decision).
Either way, this feels scummy as hell (although I guess it's the players that benefit from it most of all)

If you haven't got them already get the Tomb Raider trilogy as they are some of the best games ever.

I have had them all since day release.

I have to say, I'm loving this trend of adding accessibility options to games. I'm not disabled in any way but if the game has an option to turn rapid-pressing a button into just holding, I'm turning that shit the fuck ON

Yeah, weird unless the contract had a #s created stipulation to prevent dumping

They probably ran out a lot quicker than they expected, wonder if they are realizing they fucked up yet.

I'd say yes. The campaign actually has a really strong start. It's on gamepass if you have an Xbox or PC.

Yeah, someone took a screenshot of the shipping prices. That's kind of ridiculous lol

Pretty sure they're just dumping inventory due to the Embracer thing. Probably had a limited amount of keys already.

You must.

I'm baffled it wasn't on there for like 10 cents. I want that shitshow.

Real talk though, change the filter to Low-High on the GOTG link and you can see the Legacy of Kain games for 70 cents each. Damn nice.

Steam takes a 30% cut but give devs keys for free so they make way more money by selling the keys off-site.

But that just means the combat is flawed/crappy in the first place if it needs these. Auto aim is one thing, but you add all that other stuff then maybe the combat needs to be retooled?

I actually want to get the gotg game though with all the high praise. But this deal is not on the psn store... I dont get this sale, is it for digital or physical releases? Confused on the "waiting list" part

You would have gone to the Square Enix website and their own online store

But it's a moot point since everything seems to be sold out anyway

I can understand it being sold out if it's a physical sale, but how can they sell out of its digital? There's infinite copies right?

They most likely were dumping the last of the keys they had before losing the rights to the games
