Ah but it is also a vehicle for shooting people in the face, which I'm a big fan of. Reviews will tell.

I mean, if you want to shoot people in the face who you can't damage because their "level" makes them immune to sniper rounds somehow, sure.

The beta sealed the deal for me, it's junk. Feedback on Reddit was almost universally negative. The only people still talking about it positively are the YouTube influencers who, you know, kind of want the game to be popular so they can make money off the views.

Hmm, well that doesn't sound good. Luckily I have Borderlands and Zelda that will likely keep me entertained until Outer Worlds come out.

There's also Destiny: Shadow Keep but I'm getting that free with Stadia in November.

I am sooo tempted to buy Link's Awakening.

I feel like I should wait for Christmas when it might get a 33% discount but it's Zelda!



Still waiting for my copy of Link's Awakening to arrive. I did have Ni no Kuni turn up, though. And then Dragon Quest XI S next Friday. I have no willpower Posted Image

There's specula that rocksteady or at least 2K might reveal their next Batman game during Tuesday's State of Play.

Supposedly the show will only be 20 minutes long. If Batman or some other DC game appears I don't think it'll be much more than a closing teaser reveal.

WB Montreal, not Rocksteady. Their Twitter came alive for the first time in like 5 years. The writer of Court of Owls arc also tweeted something, but then scrapped it.

Some people are speculating there might be a teaser reveal @ the State of Play on Tue.

Damn, Arise looks like 'one of them games'. You know the type, a game that hits you so hard in the feelz that you have to take some time to process it all.

Holy taint tickle Batman! Spring 2020 is going to be bonkers! Basically like a holiday release schedule. And I called it! (*dustsoffleftshoulder). One last powerful spurt from this current console generation before the next console cycle launches. Damn, there's going to be some tough choices I'm going to have to make next spring.

You called a trend that's been going for a decade now at least. Water is wet, the sky is sometimes blue and Games cluster around september-november and February-april.

Sony making a whole bunch of games launch exclusives is pretty wonderful for PC players. I can focus on Dying Light 2, Bloodlines 2 and Cyberpunk w/o being distracted by FF7R and Nioh 2, cuz they won't get PC releases till end of the year most likely.

I'm still very much enjoying the AoW: Planetfall campaing. I finished with the dinosaur riding scientists and am onto Space Mobsters. I suspect the whole thing will lead to a grand showdown between all the different factions you play as, and with the choices you've made along the way setting the final stage. I for one will not enjoy fighting my ridiculously high leveled Matriarch Scientist with her enlightened shields and mind shredding psychic attacks.

So, that Star Wars game Respawn's making for EA got a new trailer



Looks all right. Killing big alien beasties looks fun. Doubt I'll buy it at launch cuz I'm really not up to speed in nu-Star Wars, but looks like something worth grabbing down the line.

That looks really interesting I think. And I loved the campaign of Titanfall 2.

Oooh, the goose game is out! I will check out the reviews tonight. That game looks delightful.


So much fun. The kids are loving it - the build up for some of the joke events is great; it's even better when what you planned goes wrong and something else happens!

I only just realised that I've pretty much finished it already though - beautiful concept, but short sweet game.
So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.
