Some people on ResetEra have bought it for about £53 via buying PSN cards (£25 x 2 and £20) on Eneba and using a 3% discount code (PETEFLICK).

I might get a couple of top up cards from CDKeys. £70 equates to £63 so it's not a bad little saving. Still too expensive for my liking but it sounds like this isn't a game I want to miss and the hype is suddenly hard to resist.

So this game looks good, but is it going to be just another Dark Souls.... errr.... soul destroying difficulty fest?

You can still enjoy very hard games.

Yeah, what the hell is that about? This wasn't on my radar at all until I read a few of the previews today and thought it sounded really interesting, but I can't see it available anywhere for less than £64. Resident Evil 8 is out next week and is under £50 everywhere, is this at a premium because it's not on PS4?

I will get it but not at £70 (or £65) Like I said before I’ll bite when it goes sub £55. It looks great and I want a new IP to do well but part of me hopes it bombs just so Sony understand that £70 is too much of a jump up from last gen games. Problem is the more people buy it the more acceptable it gets till like loot boxes the decision is justified by the paying customers. It's only when things get to a point when it will all blow up!

You can't moan about a £70 game when you've purchased a £70 game!

In the meantime I have Nier and Demons Souls to play and Monster Hunter on the switch.

My countdown says that as well but apparently digital games have shown that previously and then change to midnight when 1pm hits, so don't get your hopes up.

I think I'm going to buy it this afternoon so it's pre-loaded for tomorrow. My wallet is crying but the hype has wrapped its tentacles around me.
