Ooh, a discount on Shovel Knight! I'll finally hop in then. Been wanting to play on 3DS, but the higher price had kept me from doing so. Thanks, Leon!

[DomsBeard]

Huzzah! Do they normally release a couple a week?, I'm hoping beyond hope for Parodious.

[dezm0nd]

This is Nintendo we're talking about. Any rhyme of reason is thrown under a bus and reversed over. Twice.

[dezm0nd]

Forgot about Tengami coming to Steam this week! Woops.

[dezm0nd]

This week, we have... *drum roll*

Raven's Cry - PC, Mac
Dying Light - PS4, Xbox One, PC
Grim Fandango: Remastered - PC, PS4, Vita
Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii) - Wii U

[DomsBeard]

Prime Trilogy for £8.99 is a ridiculous bargain.

Really fancy Dying Light and Grim Fandango. Tough week

[stvnorman]

Don't get to say this often anymore, so I'm going to mention the release of Page and the Curse of the Pharoah for the ZX Spectrum. Yes, a brand new Spectrum game. Looks great, and you can read more and download emulator files for free here:

[Flabyo]

I think the first episode of 'Life is Strange' hits on Friday as well.

[RoboticMonk3y]

I have my PSN credit say waiting for Grim fandango tomorrow.

[DomsBeard]

I think the first episode of 'Life is Strange' hits on Friday as well.

Oh excellent I loved Remember Me so I'll be picking that up.

Grow Home - PC
Cities XXL - PC
Moon Chronicles - 3DS

[Scrustle]

Forgot about Grow Home. That looks interesting. They haven't really given out much info on the game is though, so I want to see what it's all about before I buy.

Didn't know Shantae was coming out too. I hadn't seen any announcement of the Europe release date. But I should really get on with the other one before I jump in to this new one. Kind of stuck on it though. I suck at platformers. But it's still really fun and charming.

EDIT: Just did some research on Grow Home, and found out an interesting nugget of information. While info on the gameplay loop still seems rather vague, I did find out the game is actually made by Ubisoft Reflections. In other words, the same guys who made Driver: San Francisco. They also happen to be a UK based team. I thought this was done by the same studio who did Child of Light and Valiant Hearts, but it turns out it's not. Pretty cool. Also, where's the next Driver game? SF was great.

[dezm0nd]

I've never played a Shantae game but I hear a lot of good things about them! one day, i'll get involved with the series.

[DomsBeard]

Hope the second GOT is better than the first!. I've got the season pass so I'll let you know

Suikoden is worth playing if you're a JRPG person. Some very interesting mechanics in there, and it's always been extremely hard to find in Europe.
