Ring (1998)

Genres:Adventure, Point-and-click
Themes:Science fiction
Game modes:Single player
Story:Ring: The Legend of the Nibelungen is a point-and-click adventure video. The game is based on Richard Wagner's four opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen, and features music from various performances of the Vienna Symphony conducted by Georg Solti during the 1950s and 1960s. French comic-book artist Philippe Druillet also worked on the game, providing much of the artwork. The game makes a significant departure from the source material by binding the stories behind the four parts of the cycle with a surrealist science fiction background; the main plot involves a being by the name of ISH, who is guided by the voice of Erda, and who discovers the story of the Nibelungen.Show more

Infamous: Second Son - Limited Edition
Infamous: Second Son - Limited EditionThis edition, when pre-ordered, also comes with the exclusive Cole's Legacy. Cole's Legacy is an expansion pack for Infamous: Second Son which was initially available only by pre-ordering the game (For US Customers), or purchasing the Special Edition (All other Countries). The pack contains missions uncovering the events which happened during the seven year time span between the activation of the RFI in Infamous 2 and the storyline of Infamous: Second Son. This is the only time when Zeke Dunbar makes a cameo appearance and Dr. Sebastian Wolfe's brother Raymond Wolfe appears in a cameo as well. After completion of Cole's Legacy, the Cole's original bike courier jacket is awarded for in-game use. The design of the jacket is slightly different compared to the first two games of the series. In this game, the design of the jacket shows some tears in the front and the back of the jacket and rather than the yellow pads being sewed up on top of the black jacket, the yellow and the black are sewn together imitating as a jacket pad-less. There are also some more minor changes such as the zipper on the jacket is also revealed due to Delsin wearing it without zipping it up and covering it, and also small changes to the collar area of the jacket. Since June 25, 2014, European Infamous: Second Son players can now access the Cole’s Legacy’ DLC from the PlayStation Store
