@RushDawg I saw a friend playing Elden Ring and I genuinely thought he was playing a PS3 game. It’s trying so hard to be Breath Of The Wild but it’s got none of the personality.
Incorrect….anything that gains that level of frustration isn’t doing what it’s supposed to. Look at all the rage quit videos on YouTube, people behaving like that over games.
@Maximumbeans I used to love Gamestation, there was one in my old town, Crewe, where I used to live, had a great bunch of people working there and stocked loads of good stuff…..then GAME took it over and it was pretty dreadful.
@Maximumbeans there’s still quite a few independents in the UK but they just can’t compete with prices against online. Even retro stuff is generally cheaper on eBay. I generally buy digital these days and always wait for the inevitable sale, I’ve got loads to play in my backlog so I don’t need to buy stuff at full price, I can wait. I do but physical versions of Nintendo 1st party titles though as they always hold strong money when it comes to selling them on after I’ve finished with them. I recently bought Kirby The Forgotten land for £30 of Facebook marketplace then sold it on eBay for £35 after finishing it, less my eBay fees it didn’t cost me anything really.
@GravyThief except you’re not being a geek, you’re just downloading a load of pdfs to your hard drive that you’ll never look at like countless other people. A real geek would collect the physical manuals themselves.
@Clyde_Radcliffe because unfortunately in this day and age people are disappointed about everything. They’re never happy. Nobody cared back in the C64 days when we had 5fps.
Nier Automata is a must buy, Sonic looks a bit more promising from the footage shown and the black and white game with the animals looks amazing. Persona 5 is a doozy too. Very good overall.

Re: Bayonetta 3 Trailer Confirms Launch For This October
What a year it’s shaping up to be for Nintendo.
If I was a PS5 owner I’d be feeling pretty sick right now!

Re: Bayonetta 3 Gets "Mature" ESRB Rating For Nudity, Gore, And In-Game Purchases

Re: Respawn Working On Single-Player FPS Set In Apex Legends Universe
Wish they’d port the two Titanfall games to the Switch. Part 2 has one of the best single player campaigns in any game.

I’d also include Wild Guns & The Ninja Warriors Once Again AKA The Ninja Saviors.

Re: GameStop Staff Layoffs Are Announced As Chief Financial Officer Leaves
@Maximumbeans I think from memory Gamestation had import stuff too. Sad to see how the industry is heading but inevitable I guess.

@westman98 I think so because someone with absolutely zero credibility on YouTube or Twitter or something said so!

Re: Random: This Incredible Super NES Manual Archive Will Get You All Nostalgic
The absolute irony of digitising physical manuals to preserve them!
Re: Review: Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course - Short, Sweet, And Utterly Essential
‘Reasonably priced’…….it’s insanely good value for money.

Re: Round Up: Every Game And Trailer From The Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase June 2022
Nier Automata is a must buy, Sonic looks a bit more promising from the footage shown and the black and white game with the animals looks amazing.
Persona 5 is a doozy too.
Very good overall.
Re: Set Off On An Emotional Journey With 'Blanc', Out February 2023
Game of the Direct for me, looks brilliant.
