Re: Let's remember stuff from about 20 years ago...
In 2002 my brother had a PS2 and I had a Game Boy Colour (I think I got the Advance for Christmas '02). We had a 14-inch Philips TV in the bedroom from Christmas 2000 that the PS2 was hooked up to. (Someone put one up on eBay for £80!!! https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/56011537 ) I played a lot of GTA3 back...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I'm playing two games at the moment. Bravely Default 2 is plodding along. It's got a solid battle system where defending (Defaulting) builds up points that can be used to act multiple times in future turns, so its probably the turn-based JRPG where I've used defend the most, which is interesting. I ...

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Jan 29th 8pm GMT!
Lots of fun again. Thanks all for playing. I was definitely worse with frantic items. Got passed on the line by a bullet train (well 2 of them) once. Honestly, I've never been a big fan of this Mario Kart, but playing it online with you guys really brought it to life and I really enjoyed it! Look fo...

Re: Your Top 50 Games of All Time Lists
Hey! Someone else with Oracle of Ages in their list!
While its status as my first Zelda helps it make mine, I also think its one of the finest 2D Zeldas and my favourite implementation of the dual world/time mechanic in the series.

Re: 504: Yakuza 3
I played Yakuza 3 on release in 2010 and while I liked the characters and worlds enough to complete it, I wasn't that excited by the combat. So I didn't intend to return to the series until Yakuza 4 was added to Playstation Plus in 2015 and allowed me to give the series a second chance. TWR: More go...

Re: Videogame News
It was more of a personal observation regarding Activision. There are plenty of reasons for Microsoft to buy them. One of the guys on DF Direct described CoD as the FIFA of first person shooters, it's often an impulse buy for many who may not follow video games the way we do. Now Microsoft can get t...

Re: Games Completed 2022
its weird, I played the PC port of Grandia 2 when it came out a few years ago and I enjoyed it, but I can tell you very little about it, just forgot most of it.

Re: Your Top 50 Games of All Time Lists
Liking the new lists here I've updated my list from 2018. A lot have shuffled around just depending how I feel when making the list. Gravity Rush, Psychonauts, X-COM: Enemy Unknown, Elite Beat Agents, Ico and GTA: Vice City were pushed off the list by the new entrants Hades, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Wand...

Re: Videogame News
He'll hang around until the sale and integration process is complete before leaving with a golden handshake on top of whatever he personally made from the sale. I've played so few Activision games in recent years that this has little direct impact on me, but losing a major third party publisher like...

Jan 10 - Final Fantasy VII Remake (PS5) Jan 16 - Final Fantasy VII Remake: Intermission (PS5) I finally got around to this, I kept putting it off despite being a big fan of the original. I quite like the combat. Standard attack on square, a character specific move on triangle, a dodge and a block wi...

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
I rarely play online. Just the odd random game of Splatoon 2 at the moment, always up for a Mario Kart evening though.
Never played Smash online as fighting games aren't a big thing for me. Shame to hear it runs poorly.

Re: Mario Kart 8 DX game night - 29/12/21 8pm GMT
Hold the small record button on the controller (the one with the little circle) for a 30 second video. Then it will be in the album folder from the Switch's main menu. From there you can upload it to Facebook or Twitter (I'm not on either) or download to a phone or tablet. I put it on Youtube from t...

I think I got enough of an angle to avoid the banana skin you were hanging out the back of your cart. I immediately hit record on the Switch.

Pretty sure I got lapped on Baby Park too even though I finished 4th.
