lancesta on 5-Year Term Deposit: 4.15% p.a Minimum $25,000 Deposit, 4.10% p.a. Minimum $5,000 Deposit @ AMP Bank

Yep, government is terrified of a housing crash but that's exactly what's needed. They pay lip service to "housing affordability", but the...

As a person who just paid off his mortgage about 2 months ago and is now saving, I, for one, welcome our new high interest rate overlords.

pharcyde on Buy 1 Get 1 Free - Blu-Ray & 4K Movies and TV Shows + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

Worth buying in 4K, yes. Worth buying AGAIN in 4K if you already own them in HD.... questionable.

I own the original trilogy in its THX remastered form on VHS tape - is that good enough to justify a 4K download off the high seas? :D

True Lies in the same boat, too.

Is the Star Wars: The Originals set actually the originals? Or is it the "special edition" versions with the re-done special effects etc?...

Geez I'm tempted to buy it again at that price.

It is! Well, it's the actor, anyway, not the same character. There's another Breaking Bad connection to the Far Cry series, too. The guy...

EightImmortals on [PS5] Far Cry 6 $25 + Delivery ($0 with Prime / $39+ Spend) @ Amazon AU

4 was basically a reskinned 3. 5 was garbage, killed the franchise for me and I haven't played any of them since.

dottjt on [PS4] Metal Gear Solid V: The Definitive Experience $4.99 (Was $24.95) @ PlayStation Store

Pretty much I thought it was a great stealth / action game, but a pretty poor Metal Gear game.

Is this actually any good? Reviews seem OK without being great, but it just seems to have vanished without a trace after being released....

Yeah when I search for PlayStation it shows up in the results, but when I try to click through to it it says it doesn't exist :(

Not sure who downvoted your comment or why. Does someone out there not believe that you love this game? Maybe they have some secret inside...

Yeah, but Ninja Gaiden is not really anything like Demon's Souls, apart from being difficult. Ninja Gaiden is a 3rd person action /...

Played the first one of these from PS+ a while back. Great game. Surprised they didn't get sued by From Software, though! :P It is VERY...

They're laughing at you, Chloe, not with you.

I love a bit of hot knight on knight action.

Woodinski on [PS4, PS5, PS Plus] April Free Games - SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom, Slay The Spire, Hood: Outlaws & Legends

That's garbage. Says the "essential" tier is the same as we're getting now, then immediately says it includes 2 downloadable games per...

AngusD commented on [PS4, PS5, PS Plus] April Free Games - SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom, Slay The Spire, Hood: Outlaws & Legends
Slay The Spire is bloody brilliant. I've clocked up about 400 hours on that so far, and I'm not done with it yet.

I like to think of it in terms of classic fantasy fairy tales and stories like The Hobbit etc. All these dragons going about gathering up...

Ramen isn't going to be a cheap option with wheat prices going through the roof due to the war in Ukraine!
