Big week!

Got LIS preordred

I love me some Koei Warriors games, but I feel obliged to warn that Warriors All-stars is likely to be bafflingly impenetrable to any but the hardest of hardcore fan.

I expect I’ll love it.

My copy of rabbids is due to arrive ‘at some point this week’. No mind, I’m still pretty deep in Path of Exile right now anyway, and I’m aiming to finish Alice Madness Returns before I start Rabbids,

It isn't out until tomorrow, but I got my copy of Everybody's Golf yesterday. (I think ShopTo were allowing for the UK bank holiday, ours is at the start of August). I'll probably be obsessed with it for the next week or two and gradually ease back into Yakuza 0, which I hadn't got around to until now.

Yakuza Kiwami will really have to wait.

Do ShopTo deliver to Ireland? I know they have a habit of getting games out early, but always thought it was UK-only.

Yes. I only started using them this year though and they charge about £3 per item though. On the other hand the likes of Amazon use delivery companies whereas ShopTo just use Royal Mail and An Post and An Post just shove it in my apartment's letterbox.(I've had too many issues with the likes of Fastway etc. to bother with them anymore)

I'd say they sent the game out from their warehouse on Friday because of the Bank Holiday

Gotcha, thanks.

Quite a good week for fairly niche releases I think. Yakuza, Undertale, Windjammers, Fishing Planet... 4 games I'd like to play. The first three of which I shall probably wait for a sale just because I am busy with the Witcher 3 at the moment and the last one will be a cracking game to play via remote play in bed before sleep I think (or, I hope!).

Anyone played the ps4 port of Pillars of Eternity? Really curious about how that will work on a console

Echo, Thimbleweed Park, SteamWorld Dig 2... heck of a week. But, this week, I'm all about Marvel vs Capcom!

I'm well up for Thimbleweed Park on Switch. I enjoyed what I played of Bulb Boy, which definitely suits the pace of portable gaming, nice and comfortable puzzling, no time pressure, but the aesthetic wasn't really my bag and I wanted a bit more story.
