@AlanaHagues slightly pendantic but I would probably put RRP instead of MSRP in a column about prices in the UK
@a1904 Not pedantic at all! All updated!
Everyone should give AI: The Somnium Files a try for that price
It's an amazing game with very interesting story, likeable characters and absolutely stupid humor (I mean that in a good way lol)
@mariomaster96 Yeah that price is an absolute steal. 100% worth full retail and then some.
AI: Somnium Files for $8 sounds like a pretty excellent deal. If only I didn't just buy XC3...
I already have the Danganronpa games (multiple times over) and the AI ones, definitely recommend the lot.
Wondering about picking up My Darling's Embrace myself. One way or another own the rest of the Steins;Gate series so keep meaning to pick that one up.
There's also Bioshock trilogy for just £8 / €10, which is half the regular discounted price.
I have most of these. I’m waiting for a deeper discount on Shiren The Wanderer. Not fair really as I’m sure it’s worth the asking price but I’m not tempted yet.
@mariomaster96 I bought it at that price a couple of weeks ago, only to realize the next day it's on Game Pass... oh well, least I own it now haha
Considering how much praise I've heard regarding AI: The Somnium Files, I'm seriously tempted to pick it up at that price. :thinking_face:
Edit: Nabbed it.
@Tyranexx Definitely recommend it. Even with its flaws, it's still a pretty fantastic experience overall. $8 is highway robbery.
Totally recommend Katanakami at the price. Especially if you have played other WOTS games.
I got the first Somnium Files like a month ago when it was at that price as well. It's alright. Only played for about 2 hours since I don't care for visual novels really but it had some pretty decent humor in it so far. Just doesn't feel like I'm playing or really doing much to call it a game even.
@Ralizah I've heard it's by the same writer as the 999/Zero Escape series, so I'm intrigued. I think I will take a chance for $8....Not sure when I'll play it yet though! XD I appreciate the input.
Spike usually make good games so I'll definitely check this out ASAP.
Ai: The Somnium Files is one of the best videogame stories I've played in recent memory. I loved the sequel too, just not quite as much as the first.
