[PS4] Horizon Zero Dawn - £24.85 (Simply Games)

Found 13th Jun 2017

Also still £24.99 at Argos

Horizon Zero Dawn an exhilarating new action role playing game exclusively for the PlayStation 4 system, developed by the award winning Guerrilla Games, creators of PlayStation’s venerated Killzone franchise.

As Horizon Zero Dawn’s main protagonist Aloy, a skilled hunter, explore a vibrant and lush world inhabited by mysterious mechanized creatures. Embark on a compelling, emotional journey and unravel mysteries of tribal societies, ancient artifacts and advanced technologies that will determine the fate of this planet, and of life itself.

A Lush Post-Apocalyptic World

How have machines dominated this world, and what is their purpose? What happened to the civilization here before? Scour every corner of a realm filled with ancient relics and mysterious buildings in order to uncover your past and unearth the many secrets of a forgotten land.

Nature and Machines Collide

Horizon Zero Dawn juxtaposes two contrasting elements, taking a vibrant world rich with beautiful nature and filling it with awe-inspiring highly advanced technology. This marriage creates a dynamic combination for both exploration and gameplay.

Defy Overwhelming Odds

The foundation of combat in Horizon Zero Dawn is built upon the speed and cunning of Aloy versus the raw strength and size of the machines. In order to overcome a much larger and technologically superior enemy, Aloy must use every ounce of her knowledge, intelligence, and agility to survive each encounter.

Cutting Edge Open World Tech

Stunningly detailed forests, imposing mountains, and atmospheric ruins of a bygone civilization meld together in a landscape that is alive with changing weather systems and a full day/night cycle.

Earth is ours no more

Survive a new wilderness dominated by herds of fearsome machines, warring tribes and age-old secrets in an all-action RPG adventure from the makers of Killzone.

Harness the agility, cunning and deadly aim of Aloy − an expert hunter cast out from her tribe at birth – to defy overwhelming odds and turn deadly predators into defenseless prey.

Alone on your quest in an unforgiving, post-apocalyptic world, can you solve the riddle of your birth and bring to light the deepest and darkest mysteries of the ancient past?

Features

Gather primitive resources and fuse them with advanced tech to create deadly new weapons.

Explore a vast landscape of arid deserts, lush forests and snow-topped lands in unpredictable weather, day and night.

Hunt, run and hide from mechanized beasts of all shapes and sizes – each with different and unique abilities – and plan every move to out-think and out-fight them.

I bought this from Selfridges when they were selling this for £20....to be honest I don't like it....sure the graphics are good...but I just cant get into it...have played more than 10 hours because I thought I should persevere but I just don't like it....and cant fathom why so many people do....there is nothing 'exhilarating' about this at all...just the standard, go here and do this, go there and do that....too many controls...everywhere looks the same...and who wants to play a female lead character anyway? Oh well......think I should sell it on and make my money back.

Be very careful with simplygames, I bought a copy of this last week, the cover was in Arabic and it also stated on the front and back not to be sold separately.

Everywhere looks the same? I don't know how you can say that! I thought the environments were gorgeous and varied.

"who wants to play a female lead character anyway"... why not? I thought Aloy was pretty wooden and dull, but that had nothing to do with her gender, plus she was raised by a bloke of a similar personality so you can't blame her! What is it about a female protagonist that puts you off?
Perfectly entitled to your opinion on the game of course, sounds like you gave it a good go (I often don't last nearly as long as 10h in a game that's not grabbing me.

It does feel generic in many ways, the story is a bit convoluted and naff, and lots of the side missions are quite fetch-questy a la Ubisoft (it's got nothing on a proper RPG like Witcher 3). I was mostly blown away by the visuals and gameplay, particularly the interesting weapons and enemies and the consistently-satisfying, varied process of taking down the mechanical beasts. I liked many of the characters too, I thought Brin (the Banuk Shaman) was particularly hilarious.

Only just announced, and no release date. So I doubt it.

That happened to me as well, was just about to post a warning and saw this. I contacted Simply Games about it and in fairness to them they did offer a full refund if I returned it but I would need to pay the return postage.

As someone who never got into zelda / final fantasy / skyrim / witcher - is this type of game? It looks very intruguing but just not sure

Word... Was thinking of opting for the game at £25, but am just going to wait for either Black Friday or for the game to drop slightly lower. I'm in no rush anyway...

13th Jun 2017

I loved this game. Just got the platinum trophy last night. Bargain for under £25

Can't wait for the Frozen Wilds expansion! I platinumed the game last Sunday, top game, and under £25 is a bargain!

It's somewhere in between The Witcher and Far Cry. 10 hours in so far and loving it.

This game is bog standard. Completed on hard, doesn't come close to the quality of Witcher 3. Armour sets are boring, weapons are boring, enemies and quests are repetitive. A ton of the mechanics in the game are just pointless. I honestly have no idea how it's rated so well.

I got it in the shopto deal for £27. Put in 13 hours so far and like it a bunch but could see it becoming repetitive. Whoever said its a witcher / far cry blend hit the nail on the head. Great graphically.

Think you do get a game like that every now and again. Rated so highly and loved by so many, for you to not like it. I am like that with yakuza 0, playing for about 4 hours and I don't like it, can't get on with it. Story is quite good, but the gameplay, scenery restrictions, fighting, language, graphics etc puts me off. Pretty much everything except for the story . Much prefer sleeping dogs which I loved.
Each for their own.

New DLC announced, so I'll wait for the GOTY edition.

Honestly, I cannot get over how impressive this game is. I only picked it up last Friday and I'm totally hooked. Love it!

excellent!! cheers!!

I don't like any of those games but I'm loving Horizon. Combat mechanics just make the game so playable.

I bought it from Argos at £25, and it really is something special, one of the few games out now worth the full asking price

14th Jun 2017

Bought it on Amazon prime now when they price matched. 10+ hours in absolutely loving it.

who wants to play a female lead character anyway?

women? people with a basic grasp of reality?

14th Jun 2017

This has an amazing story if you listen and read all the logs that you find littered around.

The controls are really well thought out, I enjoyed the game from start to end. It never got boring and always made me want to get deeper into the story.

Fantastic price for a fantastic game!

Being behind Witcher 3 can still be a great place to be though. If reviews gave this 9.5/10, maybe Witcher is 10++? More games like this I say!
