Came to say the same thing, how exciting! Can't believe after all these years they are finally bringing it out!
Very much looking forward to this!

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

This one just appeared on Twitter (refusing to call it anything else) Go!Go! Beckham! Adventure on Soccer Island. It has that real Marco's Magic Football vibe. Speaking of which.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Completed The Messenger today. An excellent platformer which I can highly recommend to any who enjoy a challenging but fair game. Some nice twists and turns along the way with some well implemented platforming mechanics. Started the DLC for it as well and so far so good, with some subtle changes to ...

Re: The best in-game games (or minigames, if you like)

I'm also a huge fan of the hidden mini-game within a game. You know the type, you're wandering about and then you see something in the corner of your eye that ends up being more than you expect. The "bad dream" level in Wolfenstein: The New Order where you play end up playing Wolfenstein 3...

Re: The best in-game games (or minigames, if you like)

I remember being a fan of the Liar's Dice in Red Dead Redemption for the PS3. But it's been a while, and I'm looking forward to playing the game on Switch when it is discounted. Liar's Dice has a simplicity to a minigame that I like a lot. It even lead us to play actual Liar's Dice as a drinking gam...

The Messenger has been a delight. On sale as well on nintendo eshop. Cracking responsive platformer with a blinding soundtrack.

Re: Starfield

Very much looking forward to jumping into this on PC on the 6th. I really hope it draws me into its world in the same way Skyrim and Fallout 3 did. Really craving an immersive experience that isn't "all-guns-blazing", something that hits at a slow burn for exploration and discovery, where ...

Re: Videogame News

I don't think I've seen a game launch to pretty much universal acclaim in the way Sea Of Stars has for a while! Kind of amazing that this throwback 16-bit style RPG is garnering such praise! I am definitely keen to play it, but I want to play through The Messenger first. That alone is quite unique,...

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

With "Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy" coming out tomorrow, there is some scope for a series playthrough of these wonderful coop games. I did search for Trine in the topic, and the last post was from 2012.

Could we explore the chance for the Trine series to make an appearance?

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

PC Baldur's Gate III - A simply phenomenal game. Just... *chef's kiss Turbo Overkill - A really surprising game from Apogee Software (makers of Duke Nukem). It's a fast, bombastic, over-the-top FPS that is just a joy to pick up and play. The controls are just spot on. Highly recommend trying the de...

Re: 595: FIFA series

My FIFA knowledge is so minimal, and never really developed beyond the PS1 era, but I did hammer FIFA 95 (Mega Drive) and the glorious FIFA 98 (PS1). I felt I needed to say simply the following... 1) Running away from the ref in FIFA 95 will NEVER get boring 2) I am sure you could only ever score a ...

Re: Our next podcast recording (19.8.23) - 583: Golf Story

Golf Story... one of those games you pick up on a whim. I think I got it for something stupid, like 99p on a Switch sale one day. I have heard of the comparisons to the likes of Mario Golf, and to other arcade golfing games. I am a huge fan of the genre, having been a fan of them since Everybody's G...

Re: 598: Slay the Spire

An absolute belter of a deck-building rogue-lite with some wonderful artwork and a score that emboldens the experience. I have spent 68 hours climbing and failing, climbing further and failing again, up and down the spire and it amazes me that you can continually discover new cards, items and relics...
