I own Mana Spark! It's superb!

I hope July is better ?

This is like going into the Final Fantasy thread and saying "Of course, there's also the multiple title Dragon Quest series"

Bug Fables! Looking forward to starting this ? Also picked up Night Trap and Cosmic Star Heroine on sale. I've already finished CSH on Vita but I have a feeling it'll be even better on Switch so I'm happy to play it again.

Looks like a bargain bin PS3 game ??

I'm in a different camp. I think the performances from the VO cast are incredible, and it's a nice looking game with great atmosphere and exploration. But the shooting mechanics are janky as hell (pretty sure this is a ND trademark by now), enemy AI is hot trash, and the stealth mechanics are a worse version of mechanics ripped from better games. It's not a bad game, but it's a 7/10 at best. If it was by any other studio it would have been panned, but because ND are a first party studio it's infallible. Part 2 looks absolutely lovely, but my issues with the first game are stopping me being excited for it. I genuinely hope it's 10/10 and everyone looking forward to it though.

It's also a Manga from the 80's/90's which was turned into an anime in 91, with a new Adventures of Dai anika coming out later this year. It's a pretty huge project.

I thought Nag was gonna win tonight, but then you swoop in with this gem ?

Do you ever not talk bollocks? How is Blakey liking the FFX battle system as it is a hot take? And what does that have to do with him liking Metal Gear Survive?

I don't think you understand what hot take means.

Hell House was the beginning of the difficulty spike for me for sure. Most of the bosses after that became a case of try it and see how far I can get, if I kill it move on, if not try again and work out pattern/weaknesses. It sounds obvious/silly but every boss is super easy once you work out the pattern and weaknesses. Once you do that you wonder why you struggled with it. Apart from a couple of the optional fights and the final boss nothing wanted me to smash my PS4 though so I think you'll be ok. The feeling I got from smashing a boss in a couple of minutes after struggling for an hour or two was great.

Is this related to the Geoff Keighly thing or are IGN trying a "we're cool too" thing bit not as good?

I am one of those disappointed people.

Started watching The Blacklist last night. I saw the first couple if seasons a few years back but dropped off it for some reason, but it's all on NowTV so decides to start again.

Personally I'd like to see some standard run of the mill fps dual analogue controls included. I know it's technically classed as a first person adventure, not a shooter as such, but modern controls would definitely make it more enjoyable for me and a lot of other people.

Metroid Prime Trilogy could be coming to Switch next month Currently a rumour, but would be lovely of true https://www.vg247.com/2020/05/24/metroid-prime-trilogy-nintendo-switch/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

Just watched Scream. Happy to say it still holds up very well.

Cheers, Hendo. Appreciate it.

I'm actually planning a podcast on this subject so if it's ok I'd like to use the info from this thread.

I was being facetious ?‍♂️

Tetris Came completely out of left field! What is this game? Falling squares in various shapes? Disappearing lines of similarly patterned bricks? High scores and Russian jingles? Madness. No hype, no expectations, but went on to be the best selling game of all time. Countless remakes, several sequels, modern reimaginings, it literally changed the world of gaming.

We have that puzzle
