Not really much in my snack bracket on sale this week but I could get Bloodrayne 1 and 2 and the PS2 version of Siren all for 5 bucks. Even at that paltry sum I'm wondering if they are worth it.
Thoughts?
bloodrayne betrayal is ok. it has it's charms. You already bought Grim Fandango right?
Yep ages ago. Betrayal is nothing like the other two.
PSN sales have been weak lately.
Bloodrayne is a fun guilty pleasure-ish game where you feed on vampires. I loved it as a teenager, maybe for the wrong reasons though.
Siren was one of the first games to merge horror and stealth in a massive way and the mindjacking system is quite unnerving. The scares hold up to this day if you can handle old school horror controls.
I'm also wondering if the original Siren is worth having when I have all 12 episodes of Siren Blood Curse.
I did play a bit of the first Bloodrayne. 5 bucks for 3 games is kind of tempting.
The original creeped me out more, but I was younger when I played it. People have said it's a tighter game overall, but idk. I can tell you it holds up, and if you liked Blood Curse you should play it, but if not you probably won't find much you.
Honestly, had I seen that or cared to get on PSN today I probably would have jumped on that, since those games interest me and anything intersting below $10 sets of whatever part of my brain is responsible for crack addiction in other people.
I picked up Castlevania: Harmony of Despair. I've wanted to play that for a long time. I made my brother get it too and I'm waiting to hear back from a third friend whether or not he got it too. Haven't tried it yet. I also got the two BloodRayne games (I played Betrayal years ago) because some dissenting opinions lately about how bad they are and I figured it was cheap enough for me to decide for myself. I though about getting GrimGrimoire but figured I would never actually play it.
This sale said it was week 1, so I'm curious if tomorrow will start week 2. Kind of hoping so lol.
