@-Juice- upsetting? Poor taste? I didn’t realise how annoying die hard Pokemon fans really were until recently.

@Angelic_Lapras_King 1 london exclusive per day...£20 in store price. £60 on eBay. £40 profit per day. 10 plushies, £400 for 10 days work (before travel costs, eBay fees and P&P).

Who’s going to be doing that, exactly?

Only good as a co-op game. In fact, it’s great as a co-op game. To the point they shouldn’t even let you play it single player.

@Blue_Rover yeah keep an eye on Twitter (Westfield one, too). As mentioned, They reduced opening hours from 10am to 6pm now, so basically they close the line at around mid-day to allow those at the back to get in by closing time.

Thinking about it, if I had a week off, I’d sit it out for the day to get in. I’d get some beers and food and read a book , bring a camping chair if I had to and chill lol.

But honestly, the shop looks pretty underwhelming inside.

@Blue_Rover i have been past 7-8 times since its opened (for other reasons, of course!) and it’s been an absolute monster of a line every time, half way round Westfield. The line is sort of broken up to let regular shoppers move about. They stopped new people joining at about 4 tonight and it closes at 10, so it’s about 6 hours which is consistent with people I spoke to. Honestly I don’t think it’ll let up at all until it closes, at least not down to a reasonable wait. Here’s hoping, though.

And it’s really dark but if you are in a wheel chair they will boost you to the front so... maybe you could.. borrow one.....

Walk past here every day more or less (don’t go looking for me) so I’ll inevitably be paying a visit. Hoping they have plenty of stock and keep the shelves full, I plan on getting something for the hell of it!

@ShogunRok hey babe

@Octane that’s true to be fair

@Octane focus on your job, you’ve got trolls running wild and randoms publishing reviews!

@Octane git gud scrub

@EvaEeveeFan I wonder when people will realise you’re just taking the p*ss 😂

@LinktotheFuture I just beat it, and obviously I went red 😎

@Bustacap that’s cool, thanks

This has probably been answered many times elsewhere but is the extra dungeon in DX in the new Switch version? I assume it is, but didn’t realise there ever was one until I read this article, which is pretty cool as it means there will be some brand new content for me having only played the original version many years ago. Is the new dungeon optional?

Yeah I am not sure I see it myself, perhaps he’s left it on over night to let it wrack up? Not saying it’s impossible it’s just... a hell of a lot of time spent on one game since release. Even if his circumstances allowed for so much free time, wouldn’t he play a lot of other games?

Oh well!

They could have gone further with it, but I don’t really think it’s worth it, unless they are going to go full remake like FF7.

It’s a version of FF8 that you can play on the go on your Switch or on a modern TV - happy days.

My only gripe is the lack of analogue movement, which can be a bit annoying, although it doesn’t seem as bad as it is in the FF9 remaster.

@DenDen no doubt, not for me though - game on

@JasmineDragon hook, line and sinker you might say 😂 still, as @Luigi-number1 says, more power to him! I don’t think i’ll be popping round for a cup of tea myself, though 👀

@Anti-Matter I’ll play those if you play Doom and Hotline Miami

@Anti-Matter awful picks bro

@HatosBlack I don’t mind a silent protagonist, Link and Freeman are fine, but in my opinion it’s a mistake that the main character in Astral Chain isn’t voiced. It just doesn’t really suit the game.

@gcunit lol what?

Got my preorder down, the positive reviews are encouraging, but I just won’t know if i’ll enjoy it until it’s in my Switch. How Bayonetta scores so well is beyond me, those games are absolute tosh in my opinion. Staying away from most reviews etc due to spoilers so it’s a bit of a punt, but sometimes that’s the way she goes!!

To be fair, EA were asked if it was coming to Switch and they’ve said no, so I’d call this Nintendo news. It’s not very exciting Nintendo news, but none the less some people may have been wondering if it was going to show up, seeing as EA recently said they were trying to get more of the games on to the machine.

Streets of Rage 4 is a good example - had the developers confirmed the other day that it was a PS4 exclusive, I am sure you would have all wanted to have known about it on here.

I get the counter argument, but there is a bit of unnecessary rage combined with a general dislike for EA driving some of the negative comments.

Kind regards,

Kyle

@MajinSoul Hey, it wouldn't be fake news!

@GrailUK What would be your first headline on your new website?

I like Cherry, but the guitar bit is kinda lame. Just carry a lead pipe innit. Or I dunno, a shotgun. Or is that not cool enough.

@ThanosReXXX I agree they look similar, they are very different, though.

@ThanosReXXX Not sure that they are GTA type games to be honest..apart from they look a bit like the original GTA on foot sections, perhaps?

Tactical twitch mass murder sim is perhaps more accurate

HLM1 is totally awesome. Number 2... much less so.

@SolarJetman click on enemy to attack, it’ll keep attacking automatically. Pause the game and you can select spells and abilities and use them on friends and foes. Unpause and you’ll see them use those abilities, then go back to regular attacking. You can use those abilities without pausing but obviously if you stop the action you can be more tactical. You might want to instruct a mage to move to the back and your warrior to get in front of him for example, so you’d pause, cue all that up, then unpause and see it happen. Easier than trying to organise complex movements with a big party while taking hits.

@suikoden good to hear, the issue is for example when you are just going into a building in the city, and say, up a set of stairs, then back out again - that’s 4 loading screens at 1 minute each for what could be under 60 seconds of actual gameplay. As a result I felt pretty restricted and deliberately avoided going to certain areas because of the loading times, not great for an adventure game.

Glad it didn’t get to you though. Just became too frustrating for me in the end.

So on the level, the loading in this game becomes horrific as the hours progress (20ish hours and loading screens were taking several minutes on PS4.) Its a known issue on other consoles and PC. If this has somehow been resolved on Switch I would absolutely consider picking it up again. It does really bug me because I was loving it.

So has anyone played it for 20-30 hours and if so how is the loading? I see this is mentioned at the end of the review, but waiting 5-6 minutes to move between a couple of floors on a small building and get outside again just became too much for me!

4 levels eh? I bet they get progressively worse

Sounds amazing

You wanna see how hard I can punch?

To be honest, I don’t really expect this game to perform very well on PS4, let alone Switch.

Dull, boring, repetitive game after a few hours. Loved RF1 and 2 though, a couple of my all time favourites. Hoping for a proper third instalment.

@TheLightSpirit Pro has a good few games running native 4K. Skyrim and Wipeout come to mind.

@SBandy I was going to say that, but then I thought about it and the simple fact is that if you want to play portable the Switch version is the best version. Personally I wouldn’t get this knowing I can get a much better version on PS4.. portability isn’t important enough to make it worth it.

Yeah first thing my girlfriend said was that’s the Nintendog dog and I never questioned it 🤷‍♂️

Silent Hill was obviously pretty good.

To be honest a lot of those films are watchable, stuff like Fast & Furious and the MB Transformers movies send me to sleep but Street Fighter? That’s a laugh.

@Heavyarms55 I wouldn’t say nonsensical since they are shoes for training in lol

Not me, they are revolting.

@Sakura I don’t think that’s fair tbh. Some people have interests and are fortunate enough to be able to persue those interests more than others.

@BionicDodo well, they have money sitting around, it’s a curiosity and they know it’ll increase in value - so it’s a case of why not, I suppose. I guess we can all imagine spending £50 on something we have a vague interest in that we know will be worth £100 in a year. So if you’re someone with £20k sitting about it’s understandable.

@BionicDodo £20k to you isn’t the same as 20k to the next guy. Obviously I don’t think many people without that extra cash laying around would buy this. And those who do know there are people with extra cash laying around who’ll pay more for it in a few years than they did. It’s like investing in art.

Fascinating... that’s one way to put some of the more die hard Nintendo fans

@stevenw45 next time I go to get a key cut I'll take a picture in with me, eh?!

@stevenw45 please, please make a working copy of that key using only the picture in this article. 😂
