Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments
Halfway done! I finished Abbey Grange, as well as Blood Bath, and Riddle On The Rails. Quarantine and having no job is tight. 🙃🙃 I deduce I'll have it done tomorrow, and then move onto Sniper Ghost Warrior 2.

I played these games when I was nine. It's my absolute favorite childhood series. I played Sly 3 first. Sly 1 is just a typical platformer for me. Nothing too special. Sly 2 and 3 is like "Assassin's Creed for little kids." as says my brother.

I nearly had a panic attack when I booted up my ps4 and saw my level 19 shoot to 324 [or something like that.] Now I bumped up two levels in the span of a week .... So is the consensus that everything is weird, right? X3 The levels move up way too fast. I genuinely Don't understand why they had to change everything.

Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishment [rerelease]
I finished The Case of Black Peter, and chose to "condemn" the murderer. My first time playing I absolved him. But now I have to condemn every single person at the end of each case, which makes me sad because I know some people in this game don't deserve high punishment. But oh well. X3

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves [PS3]
Man, I haven't played this game in 6 years! I forgot how much I liked it. It BLOWS my mind to hear Alistair and Morrigan's voice actors. I've just heard them for so long as Alistair and Morrigan, Steve Valentine and Claudia Black will ALWAYS be Alistair and Morrigan to me. Even though I played Uncharted first. X3
My current, tentative list is:
Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments
Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 [ @dieselmanchild ]
Uncharted 3
Dishonored [ @PooPooBlast ]
Uncharted 4
Then my birthday will be around that time, so 👀👀.

Uncharted 2 is fantastic! As a sequel to Drake’s Fortune it kinda blew my mind. They improved the game in every conceivable way, and added some great new characters and an awesome cinematic experience. I’m definitely going to replay that one of these days.
Agree on the Alistair & Morgan thing too. I had the same reaction. 😂

So....
GameStop has a sale currently on a LOT of preowned controllers for the next few days. [Though I think the sale on the 15th and 16th are for Pro members only, then open to the public the 17th and 18th.] And there were some nice controller designs that I've had my eye on for a while on a pretty good sale. 15 dollars off or so.
I'm hesitant because they're preowned. I'm fine buying preowned games and refurbished systems from GameStop, but these are just used controllers. I could be buying someone else's problem, you know?
Has anyone bought any preowned ps4 controllers from GameStop? Would you recommend them?
Thanks!

I'm currently downloading the Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishment Re release for PS4 after the original got delisted. And to my understanding the one currently on the PlayStation Store has a whole new trophy list. Can anyone confirm, or did I just buy the same game I already had? X3 Pretty sure it is the Re release with the new trophy list. I played the original release on the PS3 a few years ago.

I picked up a used copy of Shadow of The Tomb Raider at a Game Exchange a few towns later. It was one dollar cheaper than GameStop, and the sweeties made me a case when I told them I didn't see one on the rack. Not sure if that dollar was worth the 45 minute drive, but I was in the area all day anyway.

Sniper Ghost Warrior (1)
The entire campaign took me almost 5 hours. Considering I got this game for free (after a refund from eBay because I didn' t get all the things the seller said I would), It's pretty okay. I don't ever see myself going back to it. The story is nonexistent! It gives me a newfound appreciation for SGW3's story! The gameplay was nothing like the later entries. It certainly had a "budget" feel to it, and I'm not going to say how a 10 year old game looks bad, because it doesn't. It looks good for the time. Just the MANDATORY STEALTH MISSIONS almost made me quit! And the ending!!! Where is it??? You kill the dude and it just pops up "the end."
Eh. I can live with a C on my profile. I hope the second game is better because my God, this is so boring. There are few games I can say that I hated with a passion, and the first Sniper Ghost Warrior is one of them.
Now I shall start the Uncharted games for a little break.
3 / 10. Very, very boring. Glad I tried it though.

@MidnightDragon But hey! It was free! Technically. X3 I'm glad I tried it, at least. And maybe I will go back to it one day, but not for a long, long time.

Sniper Ghost Warrior (1)
Ugggghhhhhhh, the first game is such a slog to get through! I find it very, very boring. I'm on the very last level, and I've decided that, once I'm done with the campaign, I'm never picking up the first game ever again. 😂🙃 It's just so frustrating. I LOVE stealth, but the MANDATORY stealth missions give me heart palpitations! I hate them! And the last mission is a mandatory stealth section!!
I simply adored Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 and Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts! I'm excited for the sequel. But dear God is the first game horrible!

Sniper Ghost Warrior (1)
Well I'm up to level 4, I think. You can tell it's the first game in the series. And that it's 9 years old. The controls take getting used to, especially since I'm fresh off of SGW3. The first game has three of my most hated trophy categories. Difficulty trophies, multiplayer trophies, and collectible trophies. 🙃🙃 No platinum for me then, but especially because of the multiplayer and difficulty. Even playing on easy this game is INSANELY difficult. I ... honestly don't even know if I want to even finish playing it. X3 I'll get through the story, at least. Normally if I know I won't platinum a game, I try to get as close as possible. But the collectibles are really throwing a wrench in my plans. And yes, I know I can just look up a guide. But if I know for a fact I won't platinum it, why even bother with them? My first trophy in this game was a complete accident. Silver, too!
Just my initial thoughts.

Where you the lion king? I look at your username and think Simba XD. I left the forums for a while but swear you had a Simba Avatar. These sniper games are pretty fun but the Multiplayer trophies are hard, coop or otherwise as finding people who are good at these games are hard. Everyone i know claims they are awesome snipers then can't hit anything unless its standing still XD. I need to do the Sniper elite games at some point. But will wait till someone asks me for coop and leave then in my backlog like everything else XD.

Platinum # 44 - Sniper Ghost Warrior 3
Thank you to @dieselmanchild for helping, giving me tips, and encouraging me as I got my first platinum since December of last year with Cat Quest 2.
First off, I want to state that this is a GORGEOUSLY crafted game. The attention to detail was extraordinary. From the beautifully lush Mining Town and Dam to the snowy tundra of Village, this game is great on the eye! It truly felt "next gen" as CIGames took the leap to the PlayStation 4.
Elephant in the room: The load times are ABYSMAL! I expected a lot quicker turn up for a PS4 game from 2017. And I experienced some texture pop in, and the occasional mission - breaking glitch. But, to my knowledge, all the patches and bugs have been ironed out. Besides that load time between fast travels. 🙃🙃
The story was .... okay. Pretty generic military story. I knew from the second the mysterious sniper showed up who it would be. But, in my opinion, the gameplay makes up for the lack of story beats. I can say that I liked all the characters. I loved Raquel and Jon's witty flirts, and Lydia's condescending sass. Jon, himself, however, was your stock military guy. But I did enjoy his camaraderie with Simms, as well as the nice characterisation flashbacks of him and his brother when they were children. Nice foreshadowing with the wolf, too.
Overall, it was a nice experience. Solid gameplay, and okay characters. I do prefer Contracts, so far [as well as Seeker as a main protagonist.], but we shall see as I continue the series.
7 / 10, would recommend for fans of the smiling genre, but don't come in expecting Uncharted level story or Dragon Age world building.

I'm in the market for cheap PS4 controllers. Preferably NOT from GameStop because their prices aren't much better than 60 bucks. I'll even take a look at a third party controller. I'd like it new.
Any suggestions?
~L.G.

As someone that has gone through 10+ controllers on PS4, I would recommend just biting the bullet and paying full price for a controller from a reliable retailer. I've been burned so many times buying cheap "official" controllers on eBay and Amazon that I learned it just wasn't worth the gamble in trying to save a bit of money. Bad/fake controllers are often less responsive, have charging issues, and are much easier to throw against a wall when they inevitably let you down.
I personally buy my controllers from Wal-Mart (full $60 plus tax) as strange a choice as that may sound because they've always sent me official Sony controllers.
I've never tried a legit 3rd party controller though so there may be decent options out there but there's not much that can top an official PS4 controller even if it unfortunately has to come at full price. -

I just got a copy of the first SGW brand new from eBay. Free shipping, 8 bucks. It SHOULD come in shrink wrapped. That's what brand new means, but you never know with online orders. It's supposed to also come with all the DLC AND preorder bonuses that originally came with it. So we shall see when it arrives.
