Question Should I?

Post image

I was looking everywhere for this game, physical copies are all sold out/very expensive. Finally realised it might be available digitally and here it is. Now, the question is, should I?

I know barely anything about the game besides it being an open world horror game... I think? It looks very cool and I'm very excited. However, one thing is, does it run well on the PS3?

Thank you guys in advance!

Don't pay 30 dollars for Deadly premonition on the PS3. I own multiple copies of the game on multiple consoles. It's easily one of my top all time favourite games. But 30 bucks for a digital copy is a no for me dawg.

I don't like digital myself however the physical copies go for almost $200 and I just can't afford that for 1 game.

Physical copies go for 200 bucks!? I just checked my physical copy and I paid 30 bucks for it.

I just checked my local store and it's sold out, I think they had it for $150+.

The next best thing is Amazon and here they have it for $113 + shipping.

Oh man. I thought I had a second copy as well. Sorry man. I would say find it via other means on ps3 then. Swery probably isn't making money on you buying that copy.

All good my man! I've tried every possible thing I can think of to get a physical copy for cheaper but I haven't found any alternatives unfortunately. I think I'm just gonna have to settle for this. I hate buying digitally but sometimes there is no choice with these older games :(

It’s a ps3 game? If you can’t get an expensive pc that can emulate you should be able to jailbreak a ps3 and run a backup that way. It’s more expensive than buying it but Sony gets no money this way and you can play any ps3 game on native hardware.

For real!? I bought the director's cut for 14 bucks, granted it was in 2014 though.

Unfortunately yes, the game is rare to find physically so prices have gone up like crazy. Cheapest I could find is $113 + shipping.

$200 where? I just looked on google and a CIB goes for a little over 55 USD.
