If games makers didn't push boundaries we'd still be playing pong.

Still £12 too much to bite

More like one mans lie.... :smirk: heat added mate (tempted to rebuy to try out this base building malarky)

The average tub of paint has over 18 quintillion drops, each one totally unique

games developers should stick to proper game making! good story,good solid gameplay, graphics etc. instead of all this hippy **** and fascination of always wanting to be clever different! keeps blowing up in their faces!

Good price for this. Still don't think it's my thing, but this is as low as I've seen it.

nice price

Decent price, they've addressed many of the bigger issues (apparently), a similar game Astroneer in preview will cost you £15 and is also hugely buggy (I refunded my purchase yesterday after a week playing it).

Good price.

my goty

I didn't see that. :wink:

Good price cheapest I've seen this..

vision is nice, but it means nothing unless the game is actually released...

I'm not sure which is worse - releasing a game half-finished like NMS or asking people to pay for a game that then isn't released for years like Star Citizen

Ok now I might bite :smiley:

Heat, may grab it whilst out on my travels today.

Looks like it should have been a £14.99 PSN release anyways IMO.

£14.99 online at GAME for anyone with vouchers.

God damn, I bought this at launch.. sold it almost immediately... but that is enough to bite at. thanks op.

Great game, not to everyone's liking but if you fancy a different, more relaxed wander around the galaxy this could be for you. The new improvements have drastically improved the overall experience, bargain for £12.

still £2 above my biting point :neutral_face:

Dammit, I paid 80p more than this and I haven't even received it yet. :confused:

£2.99 delivery below £20

Well worth £13 - heated :smiley:
I recently bought preowned for a touch more (not even delivered yet (ಠ_ಠ) to give base-building a go.

cold.....better offers elsewhere,

one building down the road had just been painted, so i could sit and watch paint dry there for free.

heat.... although I'm still on with resistance fall of man.

For £13 you can't really argue with this.

I paid about £18 used and haven't even gotten round to playing it yet.

My £16.95 copy is still unwrapped :disappointed:
Nice find and heated

Game is still a steaming pile of dog crap.

Considering I just bought awesome Mortal Kombat X for the same exact price, at this value it's still a scam

I enjoyed this, definitely worth it at >£20

£14 delivered at Tesco Direct as another option, clubcard vouchers from the previous quarter have arrived today as well

https://www.tesco.com/direct/no-mans-sky-ps4/283-4463.prd

Bargain considering there are over 18 quintillion planets. If you took a penny and scraped it with your fingernail, that invisible bit that flakes off is probably what you are paying per planet. Amazing!

I think this game should have always been Indie/Digital Game price from launch.

I think the reason it received so much bad press is down to the incredibly bad marketing, claiming to be some AAA title when it all was, was a voxel database and a clever algorithm.

Had this been around the £15.99 mark in line with other indies on the digital stores it would have received some disappointment, but not to the scale it did after customers were dropping 50 quid on it.

cheers mixmixi - foundation update here I come!

I bought at £15 and have no regrets. Completely addicted to it. My 10yo son is also really into it. It's flawed, but improved a lot by a recent patch and you'll get many hours of enjoyment from it.

i paid £30 at launch and didn't feel ripped off until the game becomes a grind. £12 is fine. easily a good 15-20 fun hours to get out of it.

Picked up a copy, pre-owned was still £24.99 but new was £12.99 so thanks

Good price so voted hot... Still around £12 too much. Lol

£5 and I'll bite. The backlog is far too long to waste £12-15

Haha good one.

They "talked" about pushing boundaries but all we got was a mediocre exploration game that grew very boring after only a few days.

I hear the patch has improved many aspects of that though to be fair, but it should never of been a £40+ title.

nice one got it from tesco because delivery was free £14

thx man

probably cost you more than that when you return it too

​Just realised that it's £2.99 postage so it wasn't more expensive after all... You never know, I might actually like it. At least I didn't pay anywhere near full price!

Worth it. The new patch fixes some things & adds more content, and there is more promised in future. Guess it depends what you enjoy though, it's a survival game after all -one that always has a 'way out' it's literally impossible to get stuck. For that reason it's mostly relaxing, a game with no real purpose except to explore and craft.

Heat added,nice price.

Just been in to pick one up and they have got loads of titles in a sale. Nothing that really excites me and I can't really remember much now but they had homefront the revolution for £5 new. Not a great game but at that price someone might want to have a go

Picked up this at lunch time. Great price for a new copy. Probably worth a go now the hype and hate has died down. Was in Castle Vale store and also managed to grab Deus Ex PS4 for £9.99 pre-owned, which I though was pretty good.

i dont want this even for free but if u like this kind of **** its a good price so I voted hot.

My opinion (which is worth very little, granted) - Worth it at this price. About time the hate for this game was dropped. A lot of people jumped on the bandwagon and slagged off Hello Games because the media did the same. I am old enough to remember some proper steaming dog t*rd over-hyped games that have been released over my 25+ years of gaming and this is nowhere near as bad as a lot of people make out. No, it's not perfect, but it's not awful either.

Each to their own - why not take a small gamble and decide for yourself.

Heat.

Anyway, must dash, I need to get back to playing 'Plumbers Don't Wear Ties'.

Wait for Elite to come out.

You've missed the point entirely. Do you think everybody who tried something new succeeded first time?
The price structure is another argument completely.

Still £12.99 too much.

There's pushing boundaries, and then there's lying.

Whooosh.....There it goes again!

For only £13.50 you can get 2.5L of Dulux Matt Emulsion, watching that dry will provide better bang for buck in terms of entertainment value.

The average tub of paint has over 18 quintillion drops, each one totally unique

Please can we stop posting about this scam game? No price is worth this turd costs. Anyone know if Hello Games a company out of business yet? Justice wont be served until each and everyone of those scammers are in the unemployment line.

This will be on PS+ next month along with Knack :smile:

Good work, mods. :man:

I actually enjoyed it, sold it but just bought it again to try base building.

How do you mean you refunded your purchase after a week playing it?

Isn't that pretty much theft?

Can I refund a movie after I watch it? Or should I bring back my paper in the evening after I've read it on the train?

What if you bought a movie which should have been 2hrs and after watching you realised 1/2 of it was missing.

Or what if you bought a paper at full price but turned out half of it was missing as the editors couldnt be arsed.

I paid £50 digital for this POS and have never felt so cheated in my life.

No Mans Sky was biggest con of 2016.

Movie anology - yes, if the movie didn't play correctly for you, or stuttered the whole way through.
Paper analogy - yes, if some of the print was illegible.

Will that help you sleep tonight?

Perhaps you'd also like to know about the Steam refund policy? Sure, well you have 14 hours to get a no questions refund provided you haven't clocked more than 2 hours, but in other cases even that can be bent.

I think it's obvious that understanding "clever different" is beyond your grasp

Well I never thought I'd see this day again.... No Man's Sky as the days hottest deal :laughing:

Great price, I picked this up for £20 and more than got my moneys worth.

I really enjoyed it, I get there are some issues but it really isn't anywhere near as bad as people make out.

The sense of entitlement from some people is staggering.

​I'd probably play £20. Especially when it's =£12.99 here :smile:

​did they have many copies at the vale? it's saying oos for c+c. wouldn't mind this for my son it's looks like the kind of game that would entertain him for a while

Thanks OP - good spot :wink:

​fud

Glad I waited!
At this price I will certainly try the game out and maybe get some good amiibo deals when I pick it up too :smiley:

It had to happen eventually lol :laughing:

how can you say that something is worth if You dont own it ?
No Man's Sky: "it's as wide as the ocean and as deep as a puddle"

also little bird told me that it will most likely appear in humble bundle monthly soon

Lol I was about to screencap that :smiley:.

I don't care if you enjoyed it. The game is a turd. Fact. There are people who enjoyed Haze and Duke Nukem Forever but it doesn't mean they are crap games.

This is what experience I gained from my rental period of 1 day with NMS:

your ship is f**ked
collect 247042972497 metal-x to fix your ship.
your metal collector tool thing is f**ked
collect 4287092475092137590173509731905703 metal-y to fix your metal collector thing

.....repeat, etc,

avoid.

This game looooool

Thanks dude I had £11.50 worth of forgotten vouchers so picked this up for a measly £2.50

not worth £12

I think though that people would have been more forgiving if the price was set correctly in the first place. Agreed, not everything is done right first time but if you are charging £40+ you need to be pretty damn close to the mark of getting it right or else expect the barrage of abuse this game got. I think at this price it is worth a punt.

Absolute trash game. The new content doesn't fix the fact that it's still an unfinished, empty randomly generated pisstake of a universe. As many have said already, £12 too much.

One guy on Youtube played this through three successive times because he thought the ending might change - it didn't.

Great deal heat added :smiley:

It is possible to have played a game and not currently own it you know...
I'll see it in the Humble Bundle right after Knack goes in PS Plus :wink:

That's not a fact, it's just your opinion, the two are quite different things.

This is your idea of a hot deal/good good game?

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/cod-infinite-warfare-cod-4-remastered-79-99-amazon-2441256

Think safe to say your opinion is of little importance or interest.

No it is a fact. Its playerbase died within days from 200k to less than 1000 players, getting a 71% metacritic, and getting destroyed many people receiving refunds due to damage control. Also going through my post history lol. Dont you have anything better to do?

Amen

It's ridiculous how there are so many awesome games out there and people are still giving money to these shady individuals

​hahaha this made me laugh cos it's pretty much bang on. I got it recently for about 20 squids and haven't played it enough to give my full opinion but I don't think it's a pile of **** yet I can see why it gets so much hate. I got it because it sounds like the game is huge and you can explore for infinity. in my little experience though every planet is unique and the same. if you love the idea of kicking the **** out of a pile of rocks while you get your **** kicked by a tiny squirrel this is the game for you

Spoken like a true Hello Games defender. Even the new cod wasn't this bad and I can't stand the new ones.

Actually no thats not the reason. The reason why people are angry is because Sean Murray straight up lied about the game saying it would have features the game didn't have like lying it had multiplayer and also the trailers were completey different to how the game looked and played.

Before release they were very active on social media hyping the game with lies and as soon as it released when people exposed all of his lies he stops respondibg for months until one day he posts from both his own twitter account and Hello game's account pretending to be hacked and then when the media made this into a big story that exploded he says something like "not hacked anymore back to work" in a very trolling way. The guy deserves to get his lights punched out.

​Well, technically you got it for £12.99. ie, paid £2.50 at the checkout, but wasted both the £2.50 and vouchers you had that you could have spent on a decent game :innocent:

I get what you're saying, but some games are done and over after a week of gameplay. I don't think you should play something for a week, try it out etc, then decide you don't like it and return.

A better analogy would be;
Movie anology - you were interested in the movie so you bought it and watched the first hour. However you didn't like the plot so decided to return it - you thought more could have been spent on visual effects.
Paper analogy - you didn't like the sports section so you demanded your money back after reading through the front of the paper

How many hours did I play for in that at week Mike?

That's the reason the Steam policy is as is, it's fair and it avoids instances like with NMS where day 1 buyers are punished due to media embargoes and the developers lying or delivering a crap game.

On PC there's also the added complexity of compatibility for whatever hardware you may be running on.

More to the point, why wouldn't there be adequate protection for the customer.

So I picked it up and sank around 10-15hrs into it this weekend. Not as bad as I was expecting. Can see the arguments on both sides, but it seems to play very similar to other games like Terraria, Junk Jack that I have previously played and enjoyed, with the edition of 3d worlds and (limited) space flight.

Don't seem to have any problems gathering resources, and you don't seem to need that many to build a particular item. Each planet has around 5 types things to do or find (reoccurring many, many times on each), find wrecked ships, find suit upgrades, monuments and atlas stones, and small labs/abandoned buildings. Money is really easy to get once you either start farming or stand around a space station buying low/selling high for around 30mins.....

I have noticed that as I play more the planets have tended to look better and the creatures/plants get bigger and more diverse, although the range from 'actually quite nice looking' to dreadful is quite spectacular. Planets with lots of grass like cover look good but the pop-in distance is outrageous. In terms of the creatures it is actually pretty funny seeing the oddball creations. The space combat / flight however is very, very poor!

Overall good little time killer for those who haven't seen/believed/bothered reading the hype or enjoy wasting time in a huge universe in my opinion. (Again this is only my experience with the game)

£7.99 pre owned in Smyths. Save yourself a fiver. Heat added.

Wish I could afford, stonking price for a game that is not half as bad as people make out.

Going to wait until it get to £5
