Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

When I got my Switch for my birthday in May, I also got Zelda Breath of the Wild, but having never played a Zelda game before, I decided I wanted to play a classic first. I’ve been playing Ocarina of Time on the 3DS on and off over the last couple of months, and finally finished it on Friday night. ...

Re: Videogame Deals

If anyone still doesn’t have it, Resogun seems to be free in the PSN sale. I say appears to be because I do have it, but it’s not showing as purchased like everything else I have, and let me buy it again. Just seemed odd!

Thank you! Does make sense to start at the beginning, then I’ll see how the two X collections review.

Re: What's Out This Week?

I never did buy either of the Mega Man Legacy Collections, so as a newcomer to the series, which of the four that will be available now is the best place to start?

Re: Videogame Deals

Onrush is free to play on PS4 this weekend, from 6-9 July. The beta left me a bit cold but I’ll give it another go. I get the feeling if this doesn’t hook people it will be dead in the water as it seems to be massively discounted everywhere already.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Went back to Ocarina of Time on the 3DS for the first time in a month and finished the Ice Cavern, then spent half an hour jumping in lakes with my booty to see what was on the bottom of them. Still really enjoying my first play through and I guess I’ve got a few hours to go yet (then onto Breath of...

Re: Virtual Reality

If Tetris Effect lives up to its potential it could be a system seller. At least to me anyway, despite my insistence up to first seeing it that I wouldn’t dive in until there were no cables attached. Anyway, to be more constructive, I’ve used my brother’s PSVR a bit, and I’d recommend everyone has a...

Re: What's Out This Week?

Thanks Leon. I’ll probably save it for a rainy day in that case. Or at least spend a bit more time on Raging Justice first.

Never seen it on the Amstrad, Alex. I’m going to look it up!

Re: What's Out This Week?

It’s fantastic in handheld and docked on Switch. Anyone tried Renegade on Switch yet? I have it on PS4 but never really got on with how the original arcade attack left and attack right buttons are mapped onto the controller. Wondered if the new Switch version was the same. Never had that problem on ...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Absolutely loving Mario Tennis Aces online tournaments. After around 80 matches worth of not doing very well at all, a few of the game’s deeper techniques all seemed to click at once - the blue glow around the ball telling you when to return specials, how to use the star when it appears on the groun...

Re: How much have you spent on Steam?

The very same, Alex! There’s a sequel too. The ones on Steam are the DOS versions, which are very similar to the Amstrad version you played, and are usually on sale. Never seen Leon’s Atari version but will definitely give it a try. All that said, Submarine Commander on the VIC-20 is still the ultim...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I’ve been playing loads of Mario Tennis Aces online tournaments. How come everyone else (literally!) is better than me??? Also been playing Fallout Shelter on the Switch. Was enjoying it, seemed to be doing pretty well after quite a few hours, then every room came under attack from fires, rats, raid...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I like to give every free game on PS+ a fair crack, but after the first scene (where you vaguely interact with some terrible controls) in Beyond: Two Souls, I had to delete it as fast as possible. What an awful game! :( I would suggest there is some subconscious prejudice at play here for you to ab...

Re: Videogame Deals

Not sure when this appeared, but Call of Duty: Black Ops III on PS4 is now a June PlayStation Plus freebie. It wasn’t there when I scooped up the rest at the start of the month, so maybe others missed it too.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Just picked up Burnout Paradise remastered -£11.99 on the PlayStation Store! As fun as I remember. Also just finished Golf Story on Switch. Clocked in at exactly 20 hours to finish main story and all “side quests” bar three that really annoyed me. The final tournament must have taken me twenty goes ...
