Nioh Deals & Offers

I did, managed to get the Scorpio with Assassin's Creed Origins and the 4K Bluray of the film for £450 on Black Friday :D I'm actually hoping they add the original Xbox Star Wars games which just went backwards compatible to the vault. Only upcoming game which might interest me is the new Dragon Age, I'm pretty cold on Anthem and not sure what else they have in the Pipeline. As for the Vault game I've enjoyed the most, gotta be Titanfall 2. Hopefully they don't balls up Titanfall 3.

We have the same consoles ;-). Did you get the Scorpio Edition? I think my EA Access runs out at some point in the summer. Like you, if they don't add any decent games to the vault I'll not bother renewing. What's been your favourite game in the Vault so far? I really got into Mass Effect Andromeda.

Mass Effect Andromida is not a bad game everyone just jumped on the badgwagon of hate.

Same for me, got the game free with my PS4 Pro, finished campaign and sold it. I'll happily play through it again on my One X when it's in the vault. 50/50 whether I'll renew Access when it expires, unless E.A announce a bunch of stuff at E.3 that interests me.

Nice one, Ted. I refuse to support them due to their sheer greed. Also, I was foolish enough to buy the season pass for the last one, only for it to be practically given away for free! Take care.

It got a physical release in Japan and Asia. I think you're right that it's going to be digital only in the West though. https://www.play-asia.com/nioh-complete-edition-multi-language/13/70bnih

they have but its digital only don't think its getting a physical release https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP9000-CUSA09995_00-NIOHEU0000000000

its not just ordered, don't when i will get around to it with playing god of war

I keep putting off buying Nioh because I know they'll announce a retail release of the Complete Edition as soon as I do. Finally gave up and bit the bullet, I'll just sell it on when the Complete Edition suddenly appears for sale next week.

Can explain the first one at least. Of course now we all know. Secret's out MixMixi (shock)

Couldn't get into this

There is a physical release but just found out it’s in Japan only at the moment. But no EU release date yet.

Did not know about the digital version thanks but I originally thought you meant a physical copy was available (cheeky)

Yep, came out last November with a PC release and all the DLC. https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP9000-CUSA09995_00-NIOHEU0000000000

There is a Complete Edition (shock) You sure :/

Game on

I don't know tbh, I purchased dark souls for the ps3 when it first came out, but the game was too hard for me! I wasn't used to the constant 'dying' and having to start over again and again and again.... I enjoy challenges , but not to the level where the challenge becomes frustrating and makes me wanna smash my console up lol. Maybe I was a little young then and didn't appreciate it as much. However, nioh is fast paced , I love the setting and I find it to be rather smooth gameplay-wise. I also purchased bloodborne goty and didn't have the patience with that either so sold it after a couple of days. I may give it another shot because I felt the same with nioh in the opening rounds - but this time I set a goal for myself and said that I would stick with the game at least up until the 2nd level. Kinda just grew on me after that so hoping bloodborne will too. I might even go back to the souls series if I get through bloodborne. Only time will tell.

How is How is Nioh different than Dark Souls? I also didn't like the latter.

That £12.49 Argos nioh deal was one of the best purchases I made. Despite hating the souls series (not really hating - but I sucked pretty bad) , I am really enjoying nioh. I'll give bloodborne a go too when I get around to it.

How much?! (shock) They must be dilly dilly, I assume. :{

I got Knack 2 a while back the same way. Believe that was voted into freezing oblivion too.

These things do happen, I got the Uncharted standalone (the one with the girls) for free just looked though the store and it said free, so got it played it and beat it

(lol) (lol) so it is , what a 2hat

Never has the title 'Nioh' been more apt! Worth a shot though and thanks for the share.

Thank you. It's not my type of game at all. But thought I would share it.

I think for a tenner - 3 pieces of DLC and some extra gear - that's worth it

In this edition of Nioh, discover William’s complete journey along the path of the samurai with three huge add-ons, including: • Dragon of the North. • Defiant Honour. • Bloodshed’s End. Plus, equip yourself for the adventure with five powerful Nioh weapons, the Nioh Armour set and three all-new pieces of headgear: the Visitor’s Dragon Kabuto, the Good Fox Kabuto and the Lucky Tanuki Kabuto.

Is the dlc worth the extra tenner? Not sure on getting the complete version or not. Thanks.

Love this game.... that's something coming from a person who hated the souls series and bloodborne.

Sorry, accidentally voted cold! Absolutely fantastic game.

Theresa May 4 lyf don’t fund Donalds Trumpsfeld he is bad.

HUKD not HUSD /s.

The Asian and Japanese releases do not feature dismemberment, unlike the European and North American ones. Just in case it matters to someone

Heat from me!

Tomb Raider is back in stock

Me too, I was waiting for the GotY version but I've changed my mind and don't think we are getting it after all. Managed to plat it, good fun game. Tempted by tomb raider but I see that it is sold out.

Heated thanks, I feel I'm always checking Boomerang but tend to miss things. Thank god for HUKD (y)

tomb raider sold out

Picked up Nioh in the crazy black friday deals for £13. Am sure a GOTY version is on the way.

Great game, are the low stance dual katanas still op? That was my day 1 tech (lol)

Going to hold off in the hope we get a physical version.

I bought the standard game when it was £15 recently but haven’t tried the game yet. I’ve got the feeling i’d be throwing the controller at the wall

A great game that lacked in level design and enemy variety compared to the Souls series. Pulled the old 'boss run' trick at the end which was a bit tiresome. It felt like a mix of Ninja Gaiden/Dark Souls. Heat!

Love demons souls, dark souls, bloodborne, salt and sanctuary etc. Thought this was hella average - level design, broken hit boxes and artificially inflated difficulty for the sake of it broke this game for me. I love difficult games when they're fair - in this case, at least at the time I played It felt a lot of rebalancing was needed for the game to be fun. It was a chore from beginning to end. Bottom line. OK game but lack of a persistent world and unfair gameplay broke the experience when unfairly comparing to the masterpiece Souls series. Saying that - will pick it up again when it's < £10 as I bought the season pass before playing it, getting disappointed and getting rid so at some point I'd like to play the expansions 😳

Hopefully it is the start of a comeback :) I loved the creativity of Japanese games through the 90s but never been big on Anime. Nintendo continues to deliver but you do feel they play it too safe at times only concentrating on their big franchises. Sega are a shadow of their former selves. Capcom and Konami making headlines for all the wrong reasons. I guess it doesn't help that console gaming is not as popular in Japan as it once was.

That article is from 2014. Here's one from 2017 - How Japanese video games made a comeback in 2017

Some great games there and no denying Japanese developers make some great RPGs but outside of this there is a severe lack of creativity compared to the 90s. I found this article quite interesting... Japan used to rule video games, so what happened? https://www.theverge.com/2014/3/20/5522320/final-fight-can-japans-gaming-industry-be-saved

What a shame ;( I really got into the whole 'Bloodborne/DS' style of games with BB until I hit the spider boss. It was a shame because I literally went through a gaming life revolution with BB after being a typical annual FIFA+COD gamer. Now Nioh has spiders too :( is there any games of the same style that don't have spiders?

Got the plat for it brilliant game!

sadly not anymore mate, 39.99

This is still available, apparently.

Perfect for me. (Had Game credit that was just collecting dust.) Thanks.

for a second i though it was for ps4 :(

Back up to £35.99 on Argos.No chance it will be as cheap as £12.99 again sadly.

Typical that day or so after black friday weekend, I really want to play this game. Hopefully christmas sales will result in similar price

There is still some stock available - I have one reserved in Reading but don’t know if I can get to collect it! Happy to give the reservation number away if I can’t pick it up... ;(

I'm still trying to beat the first boss, the guy with the wrecking balls, after 6 months. I suck at this game

No stock anywhere within 100 miles of me so got it from Very for £3 more.

Butthurt ? Lol anyway this is on PC so not exclusive

Great game. Another to shove in the face of those Xbox x fanboys. Powerful gear but no idea!

Ah I see... hmmm on the fence about this one then.

That certainly answered my query lol. I wasn't too good at the souls series or the bloodborne game, so not sure if I'll get into this...

It's a Samurai styled Dark Souls, mixing Western and Japanese characters.

Heat! Nioh is one of the few games I wouldn't mind buying on BF. Even if it it'll just be for the collection. Kind of hoping it drops even further in price on the day. In related news, I somehow feel that if this was some random Switch game deal thread, even if it was a piece of hot trash, then even at £30, it would have garnered a crazy amount of heat. OP... keep on fighting the good fight. Don't let the butt-hurt Nintendo fanboys get you down.

Those boomerang like new (used) deals are overrated and pushed on here for a reason. Is this the cheapest deal no, the tesco one is a couple of quid cheaper and that's v-close to the 2nd hand price on ebay so its fair. Chastising the heck out of a poster benefits no one. This 'they've got to learn' mentality means some are unlikely to post again which in turn means you as a fellow hukd user might well miss out on a deal.

Actually I don’t think the Tesco and Boomerang deals were already posted

People need to learn how to use the search feature before posting "deals" The site is increasingly filled with poor non-deal posts.

By a whole quid; which didn’t merit the response, in my opinion.

I would literally stop playing whatever game you are currently playing and start The Last of Us, it's that good. Not many games I would playthrough more than once, or buy more than once, but played it on PS3 and then bought the PS4 remaster and replayed it (it's better on PS4 as well).

As the one man on the planet who hasn’t played “the last of us” I’m happy to pick it up at this price. Hopefully I’ll get to play it by 2021

Any one know if the digital horizon works with the disc save? Thinking of buying the deluxe edition and selling my disc copy but don't like the idea of restarting the game.

Both have been announced for the west, but no info on physical PS4 release yes afaik.
