Chuffed about the Xenoblade announcement as I haven't played a lot of it on the Wii. Might give Deadly Premonition and Doom 64 a go as well, but other than that I'm not that bothered. 5/10 from me.

@chocolate_supra One can always hope! I never thought to play a new Shenmue again, but even that's happening come November so who knows.

@Bunkerneath That is quite late indeed. Guess I'll have something to read for breakfast on Thursday!

Pikmin 4 and Skies of Arcadia HD announcements imminent!

Good news, I'll pick them up as soon as the patches will go live. Unless it's in Zelda or Dragon Quest week of course, then they'll have to wait

Man of Medan for me. Quite entertaining so far, as expected after the excellent Until Dawn!

Done. That's it, I can't think of anything more to say.

@gamer95 Your avatar takes me right back to the quarter final of CL 94/95!

Never played this, but if I were to play a football game I'd take a punt on this instead of fifa or pes.

I can't believe this launches in the sameel week as both Links Awakening and Dragon Quest!

Two shoddy ports of OK games or a new Dragon Quest for the same prize? I know what I'm getting!

@spirit_flame Excellent, there's not enough puns here!

Yakuza Zero for me. Hilarious and enormous. Also some Shadow Warrior and Skies of Arcadia probably.

As I don't like subscription-based models I wouldn't be interested in this, but the concept is staggering. Don't think it will happen though.

Boris Johnson has got his own studios?!

Looks lovely. Penance for Rare perhaps?

Just finished Amnesia the Dark Descent, which was atmospheric but overall slightly disappointing after all the goods things I'd heard about it.

Next, some Skies of Arcadia, Secret of Mana and Yakuza Zero!

@suikoden That's ridiculously expensive if you ask me. Ah well, better boot part 2 up on the good ole Dreamcast then!

Would have bought it if it hadn't already come out digitally I suppose. Bummer!

@coleman83 Crikey, that has to be one of the highlights of this console generation for me so far. The original Shadow of the Colossus was great to begin with, got better with the PS3 hd version, and got incredible with the last remake. Ah well, different tastes and all that.

Metroid Prime 3 was mediocre though, that's a fact.

I'll wait for the ps5 to eradicate (hopefully!) these pesky loading times.

Just finished my Resident Evil 2 remake Claire A run on hardcore, which was excellent. Game of the year so far for me. Next on: rounding off GTA 5!

@PlayedNSlayed Same I'll probably get Zelda and Dragon Quest on Switch and pick up the Ni No Kuni remaster for the ps4 later when it's discounted.

@RickD All the fuss was about 3D, massive maps and the orchestral soundtrack of course Enjoy!

Still on holiday so still A Link Between Worlds!

20 Sep: Link's Awakening
20 Sep: Ni No Kuni
27 Sep: Dragon Quest X

That's quite the week!

Quite chuffed to be picking up Super Mario Land for 2 quid actually! Ridiculous compared to the price I initially paid for it all these years ago

Subscriptions can do one. If I want to play NES titles I'll grab my NES, Wii, Wii U or mini NES. If I want to play multiplayer games I'll step into my Tardis and go back 20 years to play Rage Wars on the sofa.

This Switch and Ps4 owner chooses not to play any EA games at all actually.

Dungeons are so 2010! I'm currently playing A Link between Worlds, my first 'new' Zelda since Breath of the Wild, and the only thing that has dated a bit in my opinion are the dungeons. They're too contrived! You can't satisfy everyone I guess

@Krambo42 Thanks for the tip, looks interesting!

Although I quite enjoyed the GBA titles, the new Fire Emblems are a bit too anime for me unfortunately. Also, isn't it about time for a new Advance Wars? Ah well, there's always Xcom 2 I guess!

@Bunkerneath Whereabouts do you live?

I bought a new 2ds xl a couple of months ago and I'm quite chuffed with it actually. Really enjoy the gameboy virtual console and A Link Between Worlds is also excellent.

Shenmue 2, in anticipation of part 3. Do you want to have a go at Lucky Hit?

I bought a new PC monitor last week so started Homeworld Remastered. Still one of my favourite games of all time!

@Totaldude911 I have a feeling Mist was making sarcastic comment.

Finished Bloodstained RotN, which scores a decent 7/10 in my book. Some more Dirt Rally 2 and GTA V for me this weekend. Really enjoying GTA, but the only thing letting me down is the music, which doesn't float my boat at all.

I rarely use my Switch in handheld mode, but happy for the people who do and would like a cheaper (and more yellow!) option.

@Rohanrocks88 You clearly haven't tried Pikmin then

To be honest I don't care that much about graphical prowess. Although I own a Ps4 I mainly play quite low profile games on it (reason being that I find most AAA games on it quite superficial). Gameplay is where it's at, so long may the Switch continue.

Not a lot probably, as summer had truly started here in the UK, but I'll probably sneak in some Bloodstained RotN on my Ps4.

@SuperRetroArt Another oldtimer here ('83) who's enjoying Bloodstained a lot! Good action and a wonderful score. Playing it on ps4 unfortunately because 60 fps.

@JayJ I'd like to change that to 'the 16-year-old gaming crowd' if that's OK with you Nothing wrong with that, it's just not my cuppa.

To me, this is one of those games that have aged quite badly. I found it quite cool all those years ago when it came out on the ps2, but nowadays I find it a tad ridiculous. It's trying so hard to be cool I no longer can handle it I suppose. Part five looks like an audition for a boy band (although having said that, imagining the FFXV group as a boy band touring the world was what made me pull through that game).

Was originally going to get the Switch version but changed it to a PS4 version as soon as I read about the massive fps difference. To think they were originally going to release this on the Wii U!

I was expecting a car-based game with that title

Still have the original NES cartridge on my shelves

Still not sure whether to get the ps4 remaster or the switch version..

I'm playing A Link Between Worlds again even though I didn't plan on playing that before my holiday, but with all the talk about Link's Awakening going on I couldn't resist any longer. Also still playing GTA5 and Dirt Rally 2.

A pity they based it on the awful sequel! (takes cover)

Bought Hollow Knight and I am Setsuna. Some good deals for a change!

@Multifists Happy days Thanks for confirming!
