Bit of a warning to collectors: the Xbox version can't be played off the disc. I installed it offline but when I tried to play it forced me to go online and download a massive update. Had I known that in advance I'm not sure if I had bought it at full price.

Sorry andy lol

Balatro - out today. I played the demo last week and thought it was great.

So long, Suicide Squad. Hello, Super Mario 3D All Stars. I always thought Mario 64 was overrated back in the day. But hey, it gave us the infamous Dave Perry meltdown, and that will never not be utterly hilarious. Ive never played Sunshine. Galaxy is one of my favourites, it’s so good.

I accidentally volleyed my PS5 across the room (it went about 3 inches because they're really fucking heavy), so I've had to splash out on a replacement, and got the slim. Sorry, the "slim" version.

The rumours are true so far Partner showcase - 21st Feb 2pm https://www.eurogamer.net/nintendo-direct-partner-showcase-announced-for-tomorrow Pokémon Showcase - 27th Feb 2pm https://www.eurogamer.net/pokemon-presents-broadcast-announced Seems to extremely likely Pokemon Black and White remakes will be announced. But will they do it like ORAS or more ambitious and like Scarlet/Violet?

The servers are busy screen is really nice in 4K

Guys, this forum is awesome. You’re all brilliant people. But if you bastards could just fuck off, that’d be fan-dabby-dozie.😄

I’m almost tempted to buy it just to clog up the servers more for Andy.

Just install it on the 3080, and ensure Andy doesn't get to logon. It's a team effort now 💪

No.

The Citizen Kane of gaming is Legacy of Kane because they both have a guy called Kane in it.

My immediate response was also Tetris, but Tetris was more of a cultural shift than a game design one. Tetris didn't help define other genres, nor is its presence felt in 3D games, or narrative-driven experiences etc. I see it like dwarf, there are multiple 'small Citizen Kanes' in gaming that did one particular thing which was revolutionary for their time, but not everything at once. Tetris was one of them for sure, but so was Mario 64. Or Doom. Or MGS. Or the first game with scrolling level design, which opened up worlds beyond the boundaries of the screen (no idea what game that actually was btw., nobody seems to make a big deal out of it).

Got a few levels of Mario yesterday before my son nabbed the cartridge, and cleared off to his grannies with it.

I bought some 3DS games I was missing from my collection

Might help me with my Tekken 8 gameplay. 😄
