Cyberpunk 2077 gets slashed down 50% off for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One

 

Looks like the Cyberpunk 2077 wheel is continuing to experience woes and problems following the numerous bugs and glitches that came with the game's release, as Comic Book Resources reports that the game is now 50% off for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One - effectively making this one of the fastest games to go down in price just after a month of release. For the PS4 and Xbox One versions - the game now retails for $29.99 at Best Buy and Amazon. 

With the numerous complaints and bad press the game has gotten thanks to how it was promoted and then released without full transparency for the console versions, this was definitely coming as retailers are pressed to sell their copies of a game that was virtually "not finished" - despite the developers of the game telling CD Projekt Red that it was not ready for release. Even with free patch updates and DLCs coming and the game still somewhat playable to a few, the damage is done and it'll be a slow crawl to see this game fully fixed.

Cyberpunk 2077 is available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC - with PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions coming in the near future.

Shenmue III: Launch Trailer and First 40 Minutes of Gameplay Video

Nearly two decades after "time stopped" and the series was left at a cliffhanger moment, Shenmue fans and players FINALLY get the moment they've been waiting for with the release of "Shenmue III" for the Playstation 4 and PC! Yu Suzuki's successful Kickstarter bid to continue the story has finally gone gold and is on sale now - picking things right where they left off and seeing Ryo Hazuki continue his journey around China to find his father's killer and avenge him.

As an action-adventure game series that has touched the hearts of fans who played the first two games during the days of the SEGA Dreamcast, Shenmue needs no introduction and was a game literally ahead of its time. Besides introducing QTE's and an "open-world" type setting for its day, this was a genuine nostalgic journey that took one martial artist living in late 1980's Japan from his hoemtown of Yokosuka to Hong Kong, and now we see the story continue through other parts of China as seen in this launch trailer below.
