  • Worth playing?

    • +11

      Read Campaign is around 25-30 hours. Combine that with the fact this game is getting an average score of 9+ out of 10, I'd answer yes to your question.

      Note that this game will likely drop to about half the advertised price near the end of the year. Much like Horizon did (in fact most PS exclusives).

        I hate that number of hours apparently == worth. It leads to bloated, soulless games.

        • Combine it with the average score.

    • +4

      Worst online review has given it 9/10

      30 Hours for main campaign
      30+ hours for side quests etc

      i got to have a short play at a gaming convention last month and i was impressed.

      • Did get a few 8's but average is 94 so very high. Campaign looks to be 25 with about 15 with extras. Dev said took 43 hours to 100%

      • pc authority gave it a 6

        • +3

          That's like going to read a review done by an xbox site sounds a bit biased and salty imo

        • Call me cynical, but I'm pretty confident that 6/10 review was written to get some extra hits from dissenting gamers. They followed it up with a proper one where they gave it a 9/10.

  • Would this be received on launch day or just mailed out then?

    • Want it delivered the day it's released?
      Choose Expedited Delivery at checkout.

      Probably mailed on launch day.

    • i pre orderd only one time and it was shipped day before for launch day arrival :)
      EB and JB do this also

    • +3

      I wouldn't trust the free shipping unless you mind waiting a long time, I pre-ordered Far Cry 5 and it took way too long for them to even ship it out, when they finally gave an estimate I cancelled it.

      The game came out 27 March and they gave me an estimate on the 4 April. The estimated delivery date was 9-11 April.

      Same thing happened to my friend who also ordered Far Cry 5.

      • Good point. If this was $59 or with DLC codes, this would be worth it.

        But then risk Big W not having stock.

        Or EB being dicks about price matching.

        • -7

          buy from EB games, Use dlc codes.When your amazon copy arrives? return game for full refund.

        • @CHIEFMEGADETH: don’t tell me you’ve done that. People who have done that shouldl always get used PSN codes forever.

        • @AussieGargain: They throw away the codes and put a new one in. They have a deal with the destributors. They come back and it just gets a new code regardless used or not. I was told when i returned a game ages ago.

      • buy from eb games. return when copy arrives!
        I bought FC5 tuesday night of release and game thursday morning! super fast delivery for me. wasn't expecting it till the next week. Melbourne to sydney!

      • it says delivery at 25th - 27 wow that's too far

    • +1

      I don't think Amazon Aus is with it, at all yet. I know in the states, they're so big they DGAF, they'll ship a day before release to ensure you get it.
      However the Aus site, not so sure.

  • +8

    I wouldn’t rely on fast delivery. I ordered Far Cry 5 Gold for PS4 pre-release on 25th March, and Amazon AU’s currently estimated delivery date is 18th to 20th April.

    • Holy hell! Thats really, really bad. I'll steer clear then.

      • +2

        i bought my copy of far cry 5 from Amazon night of release tuesday. got it thursday morning.Super fast delivery for me. Melbourne to sydney!

    • +1

      I ordered it as well with free delivery it arrived within 2 days I'm in the Sydney area. Even came before the Easter long weekend.

    • +2

      I got mine the next day, is the seller actually Amazon or did you buy from a different seller through amazon. I hope you didn't buy that $8 one that was an obvious scam.

      • Definitely seems like he bought the $8 one or he lives in the middle of nowhere. I also got mine two days after release, western Sydney

  • +4

    I tend to save heaps of money waiting it out a month or two for single player games as they fall really quick compared to multiplayer games. Plus you do not have the FOMO factor like multiplayer games. Just an opinion though.

    • Yeah I like to wait a few months. Though for really popular story-driven games you run the risk of spoilers. Red dead is getting bought on day one for sure!

      • Yea Red-dead no chance i'm going to work that day… this one can wait though.

        • +1

          Just that day? But imagine having a whole day with it, then having to go back to work the next.

    • Yeah, I've started doing the same once I realised I was buying games on release, and not getting around to playing them for months anyway. Meanwhile, prices drop, patches get developed and GOTY editions get released.

  • +2

    The last of us, GOW edition

  • +1

    I'm a bit disappointed by the digital price of this. I was hoping for a $79 offer like Horizon.

    Given my massive backlog I might wait till this one goes on sale.

    • -1

      This is already on sale?

      • He meant like the GT Sport $29, Shadow of Colossus $20 type of sale. I have a massive backlog of yet to play games too.

      • Yeah sorry I meant the digital version.

  • Have watched a few reviews and the game looks great. I have never played any of the GoW games and am thinking that I probably need to to understand the story???

    • +1

      Not really. It does continue the story but it is a reboot. You can probably watch a story summary on youtube and catch up that way. This is much more story heavy and set in a new world

  • Game looks so good. I kinda like the little JB special version with the comic, but they are doing an EB and asking $119 for it.

    • +4

      "Doing an EB" universal language for when something is grossly overpriced.

  • Well I never, finally Amazon gets something right?!

  • -2

    My son has preordered the special edition from JB Hi Fi so I'll borrow it off of hime when he has finished it

    I have played all the other god of war games

    • +8

      ok

  • still not day one edition

    • +1

      For extra $30au hardly seems worth it?
      What do you get
      Card board sleeve
      3 shields and a dynamic theme?

      • +1

        no i meant if it was 69 i would be happy player

      • +1

        You forgot the exclusive avatar icon

    • +3

      I can't remember the last game that had pre-order DLC or "Day One Edition" which wasn't complete rubbish and actually added something meaningful to the game.

  • +1

    I bought Far cry 5 from Amazon Au on the Tuesday night of release date. right before easter. and it was delivered thursday morning. Super fast delivery, when its coming from Melbourne to Sydney! Wasn't expecting it till after easter. So was very happy.

    PS I have never liked any of the previous God of War titles.
    But i must say this one looks amazing! Only critic i listen to is me :)
    Cant wait to get this.

    • +2

      10/10 mate

  • +1

    Heads up Amazon AU took ages to ship me far cry, i regretted saving a little and having to wait

    • The good thing is this time you save more and don’t wait by buying at big w.

  • Lots of complaints about Far Cry. FWIW, on the check out you have the option of release date delivery, which costs $5.99:

    FREE Delivery (averages 3-7 business days)
    Expedited Delivery —get it on its release day: April 20.
    Priority Delivery (averages 1-4 business days)

    • +1

      So amazon get it right away is $69 + 6= 75

      Get it big w right away is 69 - 5%= 65.5 with wish cards.

      Save almost $10 with big w.

  • Thanks OP, bought one.

  • ….time to meet and match my GOW pre orders with ebgames since $69 is the new norm.

  • If only they made Kratos's son playable as 2nd player ….my daughter or son could join in.

    Hmmm probably might get them to have tea time just in case the active button sex scenes is included in this game too ^_^;

  • This is Uncharted 2 all over again. People were skeptical about the game and the developer before release, with a 95 Metacritic score now, is it the most universally acclaimed and the highest rated PS4 exclusive game and some have even called it the game of the generation period. Prop to Sony to let the developer to experiment with the no-cut game play mechanic and congratulation to Santa Monica Studio who took the risk and possibly make one of the greatest game of all time.

  • My amazon order arrived this morning today. One day early.

    • Same!

      • +1

        Did you guys get a notice that it was shipped? I preordered with priority delivery (I live near Sydney) and I hadn't heard anything yet so I cancelled the order and I'll pick it up from Big W or JB Hi-Fi tomorrow morning.

        A little frustrating since it specified I'd get it on Friday but then this morning it changed to say between Monday and Thursday next week.

        • Yes, got notification it was shipped (twice actually). I'm also in Sydney and received early this morning.

        • @raspudala: Same. In sydney, notified it was shipped on Wednesday.

  • Do games from Amazon come sealed in plastic?
