Couldn't make Saturday night but the last game evening was a blast. Hopefully there'll be a few more once the next set of DLC is released (in May I believe?)

Picked up a new 3DS with Majora's Mask; I'm still in two minds whether to return it as my right hand is feeling a bit cramped. I am a sucker for the faceplates and SNES style buttons, though, so I'll probably just push through it. I've only played MM and Sonic 3D so far but both are great updates of...

On tank controls, I'm replaying with them. Not because of the trophy but that's how I remember the game from back in the day. Also, I've been playing on Vita and haven't ran into any of the bugs highlighted. I do remember the original game having a few quirks like invisible items and jumping charact...

Apart from the genuinely great games like transistor and rogue legacy I'm pretty excited to play Thief. Games like that are perfect for PS Plus; I was seriously put off by the bad reviews at the time, but now that the fuss has died down I'll be interested to have a play and make up my own mind. Expe...

About the subtle clues; I never picked up on them as a young teenager but they are there if you look for them. Sometimes it'll be a piece of dialogue, sometimes it'll be an item in the corner of the screen, stones even a little musical cue.

Assassin’s Creed 3 seems to have come in for some criticism since its release, so I feel duty bound to defend it. I've always enjoyed the AC games’ ability to plant you face-first into a unique period of history, so while the American Revolution is fairly recent history I was still unfamiliar with t...

Words cannot express how happy I am to have easy access again to Grim Fandango. It's just as well designed, scored, written and obtuse as it ever was. A genuine gaming original.

I'd love to know what the secret is. I felt I was doing pretty well keeping up with the leaders at the start but then started picking up 10th, 11th place finishes towards the end. I was playing online with some random last night and the same thing happened; I seemed to keep getting the wrong items f...

I'll just be happy with a release date for Splatoon. If anyone can create a fun and unique shooter it's Nintendo, and from what's been shown so far it looks like a corker.

I wasn't keen on the Excitebike one but I've since had some brilliant multiplayer races on it. The Zelda track is definitely the stand-out, I keep noticing different touches every time I play. Though I have far more trouble than I should activating the master sword each time round. Feel free to add ...

I'm going to echo Dom and say that Mario Kart 8 is fantastic. Even the DLC is a shining example of how to do it, with the Zelda track possibly my favourite Mario Kart track of all time (love the sound effects and music on that track). Other than that I've been Wii U focused, so Smash Bros and Super ...

Unwrapped my Wii U and I'm loving it. Feel free to add me - Electric_Croc

Finally got broadband reinstalled at my house, so I'm looking forward to getting back into Destiny and putting some hours in over Christmas. Who's still playing this on the PS3?

I've ordered my Wii U ready for Christmas, looking forward to some 4 player Mario World / Kart / Smash Bros fun! I already have loads of Wii remotes, so are any of the other accessories worth getting? How about the pro controller or GameCube controller adapters?

I ordered the Amazon deal that hazedredmist mentioned above, but I've just been informed that they're no longer offering this and I've had my pre-order cancelled. They did give me a £15 credit for my troubles, though

Totally feel the same ratso. GTA V, whether you enjoyed its story, mechanics or soundtrack, still stands as one of the finest achievement of the last-gen in terms of creating a virtual world, so I'm itching to explore all over again from a new perspective. My favourite piece of news is that sound wi...

I was really tempted to pick up a 3DS this Christmas until I heard about the new model. It seems madness that it won't be launching for Christmas, though I understand some of the reasons for it. Does anyone know of a means to import an Australian version?

Thanks, I'll give that site a go. I'm almost tempted to upgrade to a PS4 so that I can remote play farm on my Vita. Half an hour before bed each night and I'll be vaulting glass in no time

Yeah, but I need to farm some vanguard marks before I can afford them. Going to try and catch as many public events as possible, as Eurogamer says that's the way to go

Finally managed to reach lvl 22 and Vanguard Rank 2. Keep on grinding...
