@kyleforrester87 Apparently Switch "and other consoles". Delighted about this, the first one was excellent. Excellent atmosphere and superb soundtrack. This made my day after two mediocre Direct type things today.
@RupeeClock I am, but thanks anyway. 50 dollar including shipping is a bit much though. I realise I sound like I'm never satisfied Hollow Knight is around 25 quid on the other hand, which I'd happily pay if I didn't already have it digitally.
@Friendly Yep, which is why I haven't purchased Blasphemous yet. Would have loved to own a physical copy of Hollow Knights and Wargroove, but I'm not buying the same product twice.
Bit sad that the only articles about deals here are from Amazon and they completely ignore UK based companies like thegamecollection.net or base.com that pay their taxes (and often feature better deals!).
@the_beaver Cheers for that. I checked out the Limited Games website and apparently they charge 15 dollars for shipment to the UK, which is nearly the price the game is itself on the eshop I'll wait a bit longer in that case.
Bring on Metroid, Zelda and Xenoblade! No rush though, I'd rather they take their time than experiencing framedips or an unfinished game, there's plenty to play anyway.
Ah yes, I thought so as I was looking to pre-order it at thegamecollection and the date was changed to 2020. Oh well, plenty to play anyway! Just a few more weeks until Shenmue 3..
@Knuckles-Fajita Yes, I've hardly seen any marketing for it either. Hope it does well though, still can't believe they've decided to release it in the same week as a Zelda game.
Not a surprise, but good news nonetheless. Thoroughly enjoying the journey on Koholint Island again. Didn't Ni No Kuni have a release this week as well?
@NotTelevision Yes, narratively speaking gaming is still very much in its infant stage. When dreary, po-faced snooze fests like The Last of Us are being heralded as the second coming, you know we're still some way away.
Physical release please! This has my name all written over it. Loved the trailer as well with the excellent music. £5 I can't wait anymore for a physical release, buy it digitally, only to be followed with a physical release announcement.
Interesting interview! I'm quite excited about these releases. Back in the day I was too busy playing Starcraft so I've missed them the first time around, and seeing as I'm spending most of my working week behind a desktop pc I don't really feel like gaming on in too, so a console release suits me just fine.

That's not a good title if they're expecting many sales in Europe I'd say.
Re: Former Nintendo Of America President Reggie Says The Future Of Games Is In The Cloud
@SKTTR "Just like most people have to pay rent instead of owning a house"
That's not true in the UK.
Xbox is doing quite well with their streaming business I think. Some people might not like it, but the pendulum sure is swinging that way.
Re: Random: Xbox Series X? That's Just A Tall GameCube, The Twitter Masses Say
You can lay it sideways in order to make it fit under your telly. The name is quite confusing though, even for me.
Re: Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath Coming To Switch Early Next Year With Gyro Controls
£26.99! Not bad for a game from 2005.

Re: Nintendo 'Indie World' Presentation Announced For Tuesday 10th December
Nice, both a Sony Direct and this on the same day. No specific wishes so will be watching with an open mind!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (December 7th)
@Zuljaras I love Circle of the Moon, one of my favourite Castlevania games ever. Brilliant soundtrack as well.
Re: Chucklefish Issues Apology For Voice Actor Casting Choices In Wargroove's DLC
"We apologise for not using positive discrimination."
Get lost Chucklefish, along with you sub-par Advance Wars rip-off.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (December 7th)
God of War (first Western AAA game in a while I actually like) and Shenmue 3 (Excuse me, have you seen any thugs around here?).

Re: Footballing Legend Marco van Basten Is Pulled From FIFA 20 Following Nazi "Joke"

No he didn't. He said it after an interview when he thought he was off air.
Still a bit naughty of course.
Re: Capcom Still Has At Least One Unannounced Surprise Up Its Sleeve In 2019
A new Maximo and Demon's Crest. Obviously.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 23rd)
I'm finishing off Captain Toad and Yakuza Zero before properly starting Shenmue 3. Never thought I'd be able to say that.

Re: Punishing Action-Platformer Blasphemous Gets A Limited Run Physical Release
Excellent, I've been holding out on buying the digital version as the creators implied there might be a chance for a physical release.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 2nd)
It's back to Hollow Knight and Dragon Quest XI again.
Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Upcoming Major Switch Games
Bring on Metroid, Zelda and Xenoblade! No rush though, I'd rather they take their time than experiencing framedips or an unfinished game, there's plenty to play anyway.
Re: Review: Resident Evil 5 - More Action Than Horror, And All The Better For It
Awful, awful single-player game. What a deception this was after the excellent 4.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 26th)
Divinity Original Sin 2 on my ps4 and R Type 3 on my snes mini. Quite tough games both!
Re: Poll: Vote For The Best Resident Evil Games
@JohnE I'd put 4 in 4th place so thats very similar indeed:)
Re: Poll: Vote For The Best Resident Evil Games
1. Resident Evil 2
2. Resident Evil 1
3. Resident Evil Code Veronica

Re: UK Doctors Can Now Refer Young Patients To Be Treated For Video Game Addiction
@ryancraddock Congratulations on the only sensible response so far!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 5th)
@Woosh193 Yes, I tried playing DQ with the music off too, but that felt a bit lifeless. I've set it to a low volume now, which works a tad better.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 5th)
Full Throttle (ah, the memories!), Hollow Knight and Dragon Quest 11, which is fun but has a completely out of sinc, annoying soundtrack.
Re: Valfaris Brings Its Heavy Metal Platforming To Switch This October
@Fake-E-Lee Exactly, and not so shouty as heavy metal. Or were you talking about the game?
Re: Valfaris Brings Its Heavy Metal Platforming To Switch This October
I prefer the funeral doom metal atmosphere of Blasphemous I have to say

Re: Feature: How Significant Is Britain's Influence On Pokémon Sword And Shield?
@arekdougy Please play along as I always thought that self-mockery and sarcasm are one of the greatest assets of Brits
Re: Feature: How Significant Is Britain's Influence On Pokémon Sword And Shield?
@nessisonett I wouldn't blame you but it would be a very sad day nonetheless!
Re: Feature: How Significant Is Britain's Influence On Pokémon Sword And Shield?
@nessisonett You'd base your decision on being part of the union on being associated with royalty and London?
Also: Please don't leave us.

@arekdougy Canada is some sort of county in the US isn't it?
Re: Miyamoto Wanted Mario Maker Gameplay In Zelda, So Aonuma Created The Chamber Dungeon
I'd rather pay someone else to create my dungeons for me to be honest.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 21st)
Link's Awakening of course. The orchestral score especially is truly terrific! Also a bit of Hollow Knight probably.
Re: Indiecalypse Is A Video Game All About Indie Developers Making A Video Game
@NotTelevision Yes, narratively speaking gaming is still very much in its infant stage. When dreary, po-faced snooze fests like The Last of Us are being heralded as the second coming, you know we're still some way away.
Re: Indiecalypse Is A Video Game All About Indie Developers Making A Video Game
Sounds a bit narcissistic to me. Making a game as a game developer about game developers? Then again, Sunset Boulevard was quite brilliant
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 14th)
Playing Hollow Knight with my new Pro controller this weekend. Both are terrific! Also finishing off Shadow Warrior on ps4.
Re: The First Zelda: Link's Awakening Switch Review Is Now In, And It's Looking Good
@TJC04 Try base.com where you can preorder the game for £40.
